The Ds(2317) and Ds(2463) Mesons as Scalar and Axial‐Vector Chiralons in the Covariant Level‐Classification Scheme
The new narrow mesons observed recently in the final states Ds+π0 and Ds*+π0 are pointed out to be naturally assigned as the ground‐state scalar and axial‐vector chiralons in the (cs) system, which would newly appear in the covariant hadron‐classification scheme proposed a few years ago.

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.

“Variant Mass and Width” of the Axial-Vector a1 and b1 Mesons and Existence of Hybrid States
In a recent experiment on the peripheral π #75 p charge-exchange reaction at KEK it has been observed that the a 1 meson has very different values of mass and width, compared to the ones thus far obtained with the diffractive process, as well as compared to the ones recently obtained with the central-collision process. Similarly in the same experiment the b 1 meson observed in the ρη channel has been shown to have an appreciably higher mass and a somewhat narrower width than the respective standard values obtained in the ωπ channel

Uniqueness of collinear solutions for the relativistic three-body problem
Continuing work initiated in an earlier publication [Yamada, Asada, Phys. Rev. D 82, 104019 (2010)], we investigate collinear solutions to the general relativistic three-body problem. We prove the uniqueness of the configuration for given system parameters (the masses and the end-to-end length). First, we show that the equation determining the distance ratio among the three masses, which has been obtained as a seventh-order polynomial in the previous paper, has at most three positive roots, which apparently provide three cases of the distance ratio. It is found, however, that, even for such cases, there exists one physically reasonable root and only one, because the remaining two positive roots do not satisfy the slow-motion assumption in the post-Newtonian approximation and are thus discarded. This means that, especially for the restricted three-body problem, exactly three positions of a third body are true even at the post-Newtonian order. They are relativistic counterparts of the Newtonian Lagrange points L{sub 1}, L{sub 2}, and L{sub 3}. We show also that, for the same masses and full length, the angular velocity of the post-Newtonian collinear configuration is smaller than that for the Newtonian case. Provided that the masses and angular rate are fixed, the relativistic end-to-end lengthmore » is shorter than the Newtonian one.« less

Post-Newtonian effects on Lagrange's equilateral triangular solution for the three-body problem
Continuing work initiated in earlier publications [Yamada, Asada, Phys. Rev. D 82, 104019 (2010); ibid.83, 024040 (2011)], we investigate the post-Newtonian effects on Lagrange's equilateral triangular solution for the three-body problem. For three finite masses, it is found that the equilateral triangular configuration satisfies the post-Newtonian equation of motion in general relativity, if and only if all three masses are equal. When a test mass is included, the equilateral configuration is possible for two cases: (1) one mass is finite and the other two are zero, or (2) two of the masses are finite and equal, and the third one is zero, namely, a symmetric binary with a test mass. The angular velocity of the post-Newtonian equilateral triangular configuration is always smaller than the Newtonian one, provided that the masses and the side length are the same.

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.

Marginally stable circular orbit of a test body in spherically symmetric and static spacetimes
We study a marginally stable circular orbit (MSCO) such as the innermost stable circular orbit (ISCO) of a timelike geodesic in any spherically symmetric and static spacetime. It turns out that the metric components are separable from the constants of motion along geodesics. We show also that a metric component $g_{rr}$ with a radial coordinate $r$ does not affect MSCOs. This suggests that, as a test of gravity, any ISCO measurement may be put into the same category as gravitational redshift experiments. MSCOs for exact solutions to the Einstein's equation are also mentioned.

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.
