Meson spectra and wave functions in a covariant version of the linear-plus-Coulomb potential quark model
We examine mass spectra and wave functions of nn, cc and bb meson systems in the covariant oscillator quark model with the four-dimensional color-Coulomb interaction and find that these spectra are described well. Our results seem to suggest that the present model may be considered effectively as a covariant version of the nonrelativistic linear-plus-Coulomb potential quark model.

On the existence of light-scalar mesons kappa(800) and kappa-prime(1150): The ~U(12) scheme and BES II data
We present that there should exist a light strange-scalar meson kappa', in addition to the kappa(800), which has a mass around 1.1-1.2 GeV, a rather narrow width, and couples strongly to kappa(800)sigma(600) (Kpipipi) but weakly to Kpi, based upon the U~(12)-classification scheme of hadrons and BES II data on J/psi -> barK*(892)0K+pi- decay.

Candidates for Chiral Particles
We find possible candidates for the new type of q bar q meson, mesonic chiralons, whose existence is predicted in the covariant level-classification scheme of hadrons with U(12)_SF * O(3,1)_L symmetry, by assigning all the known light-unflavored and strange mesons, with masses below about 1.8 GeV, to U(12)_SF * O(3,1)_L multiplets.

Radiative decays of charmed mesons in the covariant oscillator quark model
We report on a study of the radiative decays for the ground S -wave and the excited P -wave charmed ( c u ¯ , c d ¯ ) mesons applying the covariant oscillator quark model. The obtained results are compared with experimental data including a recently reported D 1 ( 2420 ) 0 → D 0 γ , and other quark-model predictions. These predictions could provide a useful clue as to search for the radiative decays of excited D mesons in the foreseeable future experiments at the B-factories.

Triangular solution to the general relativistic three-body problem for general masses
Continuing work initiated in an earlier publication [Ichita, Yamada and Asada, Phys. Rev. D 83, 084026 (2011)], we reexamine the post-Newtonian effects on Lagrange's equilateral triangular solution for the three-body problem. For three finite masses, it is found that a triangular configuration satisfies the post-Newtonian equation of motion in general relativity, if and only if it has the relativistic corrections to each side length. This post-Newtonian configuration for three finite masses is not always equilateral and it recovers previous results for the restricted three-body problem when one mass goes to zero. For the same masses and angular velocity, the post-Newtonian triangular configuration is always smaller than the Newtonian one.

Improving the moment approach for astrometric binaries: possible application to Cygnus X-1
A moment approach for orbital determinations of astrometric binaries from astrometric observations alone has been recently studied for a low signal-to-noise ratio (Iwama et al. 2013, PASJ, 65, 2). Through avoiding a direct use of the time-consuming Kepler equation, temporalinformationistakenintoaccount toincrease theaccuracy ofstatistical moments. As numerical tests, 100 realizations are done and the mean value and the standard deviation are also evaluated. For a semimajor axis, the difference between the mean of the recovered values and the true value decreases to less than a tenth in the case of 10000 observed points. Therefore, the present approach works better than the previous one for orbital determinations when one has a large number of observed points. The present approach is thus applicable to CygX-1.

Possible daily and seasonal variations in quantum interference induced by Chern-Simons gravity.
Possible effects of Chern-Simons (CS) gravity on a quantum interferometer turn out to be dependent on the latitude and direction of the interferometer on Earth in orbital motion around the Sun. Daily and seasonal variations in phase shifts are predicted with an estimate of the size of the effects, wherefore neutron interferometry with ~5 m arm length and ~10(-4) phase measurement accuracy would place a bound on a CS parameter comparable to the Gravity Probe B satellite.
