Strong Coupling Limit/Region of Lattice QCD
We study the phase diagram of quark matter and nuclear properties based on the strong coupling expansion of lattice QCD. Both of baryon and finite coupling correction are found to have effects to extend the hadron phase to a larger μ direction relative to Tc. In a chiral RMF model with logarithmic sigma potential derived in the strong coupling limit of lattice QCD, we can avoid the chiral collapse and normal and hypernuclei properties are well described.

Phase diagram at finite temperature and quark density in the strong coupling limit of lattice QCD for color SU(3)
We study the phase diagram of quark matter at finite temperature ($T$) and chemical potential ($\ensuremath{\mu}$) in the strong coupling limit of lattice QCD for color SU(3). We derive an analytical expression of the effective free energy as a function of $T$ and $\ensuremath{\mu}$, including baryon effects. The finite temperature effects are evaluated by integrating over the temporal link variable exactly in the Polyakov gauge with an antiperiodic boundary condition for fermions. The obtained phase diagram shows the first and the second order phase transition at low and high temperatures, respectively, and those are separated by the tricritical point in the chiral limit. Baryon has effects to reduce the effective free energy and to extend the hadron phase to a larger $\ensuremath{\mu}$ direction at low temperatures.

QCD critical point in the strong coupling lattice QCD and during black hole formation
We discuss the QCD phase diagram from two different point of view. We first investigate the phase diagram structure in the strong coupling lattice QCD with Polyakov loop effects, and show that the the chiral and Z_{N_c} deconfinement transition boundaries deviate at finite mu as suggested from large N_c arguments. Next we discuss the possibility to probe the QCD critical point during prompt black hole formation processes. The thermodynamical evolution during the black hole formation would result in quark matter formation, and the critical point in isospin asymmetric matter may be swept. (T,mu_B) region probed in heavy-ion collisions and the black hole formation processes covers most of the critical point locations predicted in recent lattice Monte-Carlo simulations and chiral effective models.

Phase diagram at finite temperature and quark density in the strong coupling region of lattice QCD for colour SU(3)
We study the phase diagram of quark matter at finite temperature (T) and chemical potential (μ) in the strong coupling region of lattice QCD for colour SU(3). Baryon has effects to extend the hadron phase to a larger μ direction relative to T c at low temperatures in the strong coupling limit. With the l/g 2 corrections, T c is found to decrease rapidly as g decreases, and the shape of the phase diagram becomes closer to that expected in the real world.

Effective System for Simulating Dust Continuum Observations on Distributed Computing Resources
We present an effective system for simulating dust continuum observations by radiative transfer simulations. By using workflow management system RENKEI-WFT, we utilized distributed computing resources and automated a sequence of computational tasks required for radiative transfer modeling, namely, main radiative transfer simulations, pre-/post-processes, and data transfer between computing resources. Our system simultaneously executes a lot of radiative transfer simulations with different input parameters on distributed computing resources. This capability of our system enables us to conduct effective research by radiative transfer simulation. As a demonstration of our system, we simulated dust continuum observations of protoplanetary disk. We performed hydrodynamic simulation modeling photoevaporating protoplanetary disk irradiated by ultra violet radiation from nearby massive stars. Results of this hydrodynamic simulation were used as input data for radiative transfer simulations. Expected spectral energy distributions and intensity maps were obtained by our system.

Upper limits from the LIGO and TAMA detectors on the rate of gravitational-wave bursts
We report on the first joint search for gravitational waves by the TAMA and LIGO collaborations. We looked for millisecond-duration unmodeled gravitational-wave bursts in 473 hr of coincident data collected during early 2003. No candidate signals were found. We set an upper limit of 0.12 events per day on the rate of detectable gravitational-wave bursts, at 90% confidence level. From software simulations, we estimate that our detector network was sensitive to bursts with root-sum-square strain amplitude above approximately 1–3×10-19  Hz-1/2 in the frequency band 700-2000 Hz. We describe the details of this collaborative search, with particular emphasis on its advantages and disadvantages compared to searches by LIGO and TAMA separately using the same data. Benefits include a lower background and longer observation time, at some cost in sensitivity and bandwidth. We also demonstrate techniques for performing coincidence searches with a heterogeneous network of detectors with different noise spectra and orientations. These techniques include using coordinated software signal injections to estimate the network sensitivity, and tuning the analysis to maximize the sensitivity and the livetime, subject to constraints on the background.
