NOVEL ACCELERATING EINSTEIN VACUA AND SMOOTH INHOMOGENEOUS RIEMANNIAN MANIFOLDS
A novel class of Einstein vacua is presented, which possess nonvanishing cosmological constant and accelerating horizon with the topology of SD-3 fibration over S-1. After Euclideanization, the solution describes a conformally distorted SD-1 fibration over S-1, which is smooth, compact and inhomogeneous and can be regarded as analog of Don Page's gravitational instanton.

FIVE-DIMENSIONAL VACUUM EINSTEIN SPACETIMES IN C-METRIC LIKE COORDINATES
A five-dimensional Einstein spacetime with (non)vanishing cosmological constant is analyzed in detail. The metric is in close analogy with the four-dimensional massless uncharged C-metric in many aspects. The coordinate system, horizons and causal structures, relations to standard form of de Sitter, anti de Sitter and Minkowski vacua are investigated. After a boost and Kaluza–Klein reduction, we get an exact solution of four-dimensional Einstein–Maxwell–Liouville theory which reduces to a solution to Einstein–Liouville theory in the limit of zero boost velocity and to that of Einstein–Maxwell–dilaton theory in the case of zero cosmological constant.

Landau meets Newton: time translation symmetry breaking in classical mechanics
AbstractEvery classical Newtonian mechanical system can be equipped with anonstandard Hamiltonian structure, in which the Hamiltonian is the squareof the canonical Hamiltonian up to a constant shift, and the Poisson bracketis nonlinear. In such a formalism, time translation symmetry can be spon-taneously broken, provided the potential function becomes negative. A niceanalogy between time translation symmetry breaking and the Landau the-ory of second order phase transitions is established, together with severalexample cases illustrating time translation breaking ground states. In par-ticular, the CDM model of FRW cosmology is reformulated as the timetranslation symmetry breaking ground states.Keywords: time translation symmetry breaking, Hamiltonian formalism,Landau theory of phase transition, CDM modelPACS: 1 Introduction Spontaneous symmetry breaking plays an essential role in many areas in moderntheoretical physics such as the gauge theory of particle physics and the Landau-Ginzberg theory of phase transitions in condensed matter physics. Spontaneouslybroken symmetries can either be internal symmetry (such as gauge and chiralsymmetries) or spacial symmetry (such as space translation and rotation symme-tries). Shapere and Wilczek recently discovered [1] that even the time translationsymmetry can be spontaneously broken in some singular Lagrangian systems. Ina previous work [2], we showed that the spontaneous breaking of time transla-tion symmetry can also be described in Hamiltonian formalism using some non-1

Properties of an Accelerating Gauss-Bonnet Vacuum in Five Dimensions
The causal structure of a five-dimensional C-metric like vacuum solution of Gauss-Bonnet gravity is analyzed in detail, the Gauss-Bonnet parameter make it more complex than that of a C-metric like solution of Einstein gravity. The acceleration of the observer fixed at a spatial position is calculated, the effect of the Gauss-Bonnet parameter comes in, but the acceleration of the origin is not affected by the parameter. The geodesics of the test particles in the spacetime are investigated, it is found that objects accelerate to go to the horizon in the accelerating spacetime.

Accelerating BTZ spacetime
An exact solution of (2 + 1)-dimensional Einstein gravity with a cosmological constant is studied. The corresponding spacetime is interpreted as an accelerating BTZ spacetime. The proper acceleration, horizon structure, temperature and entropy are presented in detail. The metric being studied is very similar to the one studied by Astorino (2011 J. High Energy Phys. JHEP01(2011)114) but the range of parameters is different which results in significant changes in the causal structures.

Thermodynamics of rotating black holes with scalar hair in three dimensions
Introducing a new form of scalar potential $V(\ensuremath{\phi})$, we derive a proper form of the rotating black hole solution in three-dimensional Einstein gravity with nonminimally coupled scalar field and find that the first law of thermodynamics of this new rotating hairy black hole can be protected, where the scalar field parameter $B$ is constrained to relate to the black hole size. We also disclose the Hawking\char21{}Page phase transition between this rotating hairy black holes and the pure thermal radiation. Moreover, we study phase transitions between this rotating hairy black hole and rotating Banados-Teitelboim-Zanelli (BTZ) black hole. Considering the matchings for the temperature and angular momentum, we find that the rotating BTZ black hole always has smaller free energy, which is a thermodynamically more preferred phase. Additionally, we evaluate the thermodynamics of the rotating black hole with minimally coupled scalar hair in three dimensions, which exhibits that the thermodynamical behaviors of this rotating hairy black hole are very similar to those of the rotating black hole with nonminimally coupled scalar hair.

A method for the separation and reconstructions of charged hadron and neutral hadron from their overlapped showers in an electromagnetic calorimeter
The separation and reconstructions of charged hadron and neutral hadron from their overlapped showers in an electromagnetic calorimeter is very important for the reconstructions of some particles with hadronic decays, for example the tau reconstruction in the searches for the Standard Model and supersymmetric Higgs bosons at the LHC. In this paper, a method combining the shower cluster in an electromagnetic calorimeter and the parametric formula for hadron showers, was developed to separate the overlapped showers between charged hadron and neutral hadron. Taking the hadronic decay containing one charged pion and one neutral pion in the final status of tau for example, satisfied results of the separation of the overlapped showers, the reconstructions of the energy and positions of the hadrons were obtained. An improved result for the tau reconstruction with this decay model can be also achieved after the application of the proposed method.

Status of high current R&D Energy Recovery LINAC at Brookhaven National Laboratory
An ampere class 20 MeV superconducting Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) is under construction at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) for testing of concepts relevant for high-energy coherent electron cooling and electron-ion colliders. One of the goals is to demonstrate an electron beam with high charge per bunch ({approx} 5 nC) and low normalized emittance ({approx} 5 mm-mrad) at an energy of 20 MeV. Flexible lattice of ERL loop provides a test-bed for investigating issues of transverse and longitudinal instabilities, and diagnostics for intense CW e-beam. The superconducting 703 MHz RF photoinjector is considered as an electron source for such a facility. We will start with a straight pass (gun - 5 cell cavity - beam stop) test for the SRF Gun performance studies. Later, we will install and test a novel injection line concept for emittance preservation in a lower energy merger. In this paper we present the status and our plans for construction and commissioning of this facility.

Yang-Type Monopoles In 5 Dimensional Curved Space-Time
Motivated by Gibbons and Townsend's recent work, we construct Yang-Type monopoles in maximally symmetric space-time. We then analyze the dependence of horizon structure of the space-times around the 5-dimensional monopoles on the relative strength of gravitations to Yang-Mills interactions. We also analyze the stability of the monopoles against tensor type perturbations on metrics.

Study of split higher order mode resonances in superconducting cavities
Abstract Split resonances are a common appearance in superconducting cavities and are studied here on a specific example. A five cell superconducting cavity suitable for the envisioned electron-hadron collider eRHIC was designed and will be used in the upcoming “Coherent electron Cooling” Proof-of-Principle experiment. The superconducting cavity is intended for high-current applications, and beam stability depends on minimizing the Higher Order Modes (HOM). This was attempted in the design phase and will be done with appropriate mode dampers in operation. The design was implemented as a copper cavity and two Niobium cavities were fabricated. The availability of the copper model provided a convenient opportunity to confirm the design and to study potentially nefarious HOMs. Selected high- Q resonances were investigated via bead pull measurements. The appearance of split resonances impeded their study and suitable methods of HOM identification are presented in this report.
