Baryon spectrum in quark potential model
In the calculation of the baryonic spectrum in the quark potential model, except the conventional one-gluon-exchange term (OGE) in the quark-quark interaction, de­ rived by Rujula, Georgi and Glashow[l] , a confinement potential should be introduced into the hamiltonian of the baryon. Although a linear type confinement potential is expected by the lattice gauge theory and string model, the exact form of this potential is still unknown. Thus, in the practical calculation, tltis potential should phenomeno­ logically be introduced. In order to explain the experimental phenomenon why in the baryonic spectrum, the excited states with positive parity are very close to the ',' states with negative parity in the baryonic spectrum, the confinement potentiaisill various forms are employed in the calculation. By selecting ~ confinement p'otential in the form of the combination of the linear and quadratic terms, C. S. Kalman and Traln[2) obtained a better agreement between the theoretical resnlt and experinlental data.

Multi-strange hadronic systems in a chiral SU(3) quark mean field model
We apply the chiral SU(3) quark mean field model to investigate the finite nuclei. We find that the combined confining potential chi(c)(C) is more proper to describe finite nuclei compared with the scalar and scalar-vector potentials. The hypernuclei and multi-strange objects which include A and Xi are discussed in this model. The maximum binding energy for such kind of multi-strange objects is about 16-17 MeV and the corresponding strangeness fraction f(s) is around 1.2-1.3. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.

Hyperon-Meson Vertices and Hyperon-Nucleon Interactions on Quark Model
In this paper, we introduce two parts of work: the hyperon-meson vertex structure from the one-gluon-exchange quark-antiquark pair creation model and the hyperon-nucleon interactions on a modified quark potential model. For both parts some significant results have been obtained.

BARYON–BARYON INTERACTION IN THE EXTENDED CHIRAL SU(3) QUARK MODEL
The hyperon-nucleon scattering processes and some dibaryon states are studied both in the chiral SU(3) quark model and in the extended chiral SU(3) quark model by solving the resonating group method (RGM) equation. We find that the short-range interaction could be described either by the one-gluon exchange or by the vector meson exchange for baryon-baryon system.

Color screening effect in the quark potential model
By using the color confinement potential which includes the color screening effect, we studied the baryon spectra and the nucleon-nucleon interaction. The results show that the color screening effect not only improves the baryon spectrum calculation, but also can solve the long-tail problem of the color Van der Waals force. A part of the medium attraction of the nuclear force can be obtained from the color Van der Waals force.

The luminosity function of Swift long gamma-ray bursts
The formation rate of long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) could follow the cosmic star formation rate (SFR) incorporating with cosmic metallicity evolution. Therefore, the luminosity function (LF) of GRBs can in principle be explored by modeling the redshift-luminosity distributions of Swift observed GRBs. For an assumed LF form as �z(L) / e −L p/L (L=Lp) −� (1 + z) � , we found that (1) the approximate broken-power law distribution of the luminosities of the Swift observed GRBs is probably caused by the luminosity selection of the telescope by reducing the number of the GRBs with low luminosities, (2) the evolution of the LF could approach to be very weak, i.e., � � 0, if the GRB environments are metal-poor as Z < (0:1 0:3)Z� , and (3) the slope of the LF can be derived to be within � � (1:55 1:72) by fitting the redshift distribution of the GRBs and qualitatively explaining the luminosity distribution. Finally, we also suggest an empirical detection efficiency as a function of flux for the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) in order to model the logN logP distribution of the GRBs.

High-redshift gamma-ray bursts: observational signatures of superconducting cosmic strings?
The high-redshift gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), GRBs 080913 and 090423, challenge the conventional GRB progenitor models by their short durations, typical for short GRBs, and their high energy releases, typical for long GRBs. Meanwhile, the GRB rate inferred from high-redshift GRBs also remarkably exceeds the prediction of the collapsar model, with an ordinary star formation history. We show that all these contradictions could be eliminated naturally, if we ascribe some high-redshift GRBs to electromagnetic bursts of superconducting cosmic strings. High-redshift GRBs could become a reasonable way to test the superconducting cosmic string model because the event rate of cosmic string bursts increases rapidly with increasing redshifts, whereas the collapsar rate decreases.

HOW CAN NEWLY BORN RAPIDLY ROTATING NEUTRON STARS BECOME MAGNETARS
In a newly born (high-temperature and Keplerian rotating) neutron star, r-mode instability can lead to stellar differential rotation, which winds the seed poloidal magnetic field (∼10{sup 11} G) to generate an ultra-high (∼10{sup 17} G) toroidal field component. Subsequently, by succumbing to the Tayler instability, the toroidal field could be partially transformed into a new poloidal field. Through such dynamo processes, the newly born neutron star with sufficiently rapid rotation could become a magnetar on a timescale of ∼10{sup 2} {sup –} {sup 3} s, with a surface dipolar magnetic field of ∼10{sup 15} G. Accompanying the field amplification, the star could spin down to a period of ∼5 ms through gravitational wave radiation due to the r-mode instability and, in particular, the non-axisymmetric stellar deformation caused by the toroidal field. This scenario provides a possible explanation for why the remnant neutron stars formed in gamma-ray bursts and superluminous supernovae could be millisecond magnetars.

A Supramassive Magnetar Central Engine for GRB 130603B
We show that the peculiar early optical emission and, in particular, the X-ray after glow emission of the short-duration burst GRB 130603B can be explained by continuous energy injection into the blastwave from a supramassive magnetar central engine. The observed energetics and temporal/spectral properties of the late infrared bump (i.e., the "kilonova") are also found to be consistent with emission from the ejecta launched during a neutron star (NS)-NS merger and powered by a magnetar central engine. The isotropic-equivalent kinetic energies of both the gamma-ray burst (GRB) blastwave and the kilonova are approximately E-k similar to 10(51) erg, consistent with being powered by a near-isotropic magnetar wind. However, this relatively small value requires that most of the initial rotational energy of the magnetar (similar to a few x 10(52) erg) is carried away by gravitational wave radiation. Our results suggest that (1) the progenitor of GRB 130603B was a NS-NS binary system, the merger product of which would have been a supramassive NS that lasted for about similar to 1000 s; (2) the equation of state of the nuclear matter should be stiff enough to allow the survival of a long-lived supramassive NS; thus this suggested that the detection of the bright electromagnetic counterparts of gravitational wave triggers without short GRB associations is promising in the upcoming Advanced LIGO/VIRGO era.

Preliminary study of the K N interaction in a chiral constituent quark model
A preliminary investigation of $\overline{K}N$ interaction is performed within a chiral constituent quark model by solving the resonating group method (RGM) equation. The model parameters are taken from our previous work, which gave a satisfactory description of the $S$-, $P$-, $D$-, $F$-wave $\mathit{KN}$ scattering phase shifts. The channel-coupling between $\overline{K}N,\ensuremath{\pi}\ensuremath{\Lambda}$ and $\ensuremath{\pi}\ensuremath{\Sigma}$ is considered, and the scattering phase shifts as well as the bound-state problem of $\overline{K}N$ are dynamically studied. The results show that the $S$-wave $\overline{K}N$ interaction in the isospin $I=0$ channel is attractive, and in the extended chiral SU(3) quark model such an attraction can make for a $\overline{K}N$ bound state, which appears as a $\ensuremath{\pi}\ensuremath{\Sigma}$ resonance in the coupled-channel calculation, while the chiral SU(3) quark model cannot accommodate the existence of a $\overline{K}N$ bound state. It seems that the vector meson exchanges are necessary to be introduced in the quark-quark interactions if one tries to explain the $\ensuremath{\Lambda}(1405)$ as a $\overline{K}N$ bound state or a $\ensuremath{\pi}\ensuremath{\Sigma}$-$\overline{K}N$ resonance state.
