Heavy baryon masses in large Nc HQET
Abstract We argue that in the large N c HQET, the masses of the s-wave low-spin heavy baryons approximately equal to the heavy quark mass plus proton mass. To the subleading order, the heavy baryon mass 1 N c expansion not only has the same form, but also has the same coefficients as that of the light baryon. Based on this, a numerical analysis is made.

QCD sum rule analysis for the Lambda(b)->Lambda(c) semileptonic decay
Abstract The 1 m c and 1 m b corrections to the Λ b → Λ c semileptonic decay are analyzed by QCD sum rules. Within the framework of heavy quark effective theory, the subleading baryonic Isgur-Wise function of Λ b → Λ c has been calculated. It is shown that the corrections due to the 1 m Lagrangian insertion are negligibly small. The sizable 1 m Q effect to the decay lies only in the weak current. The decay spectrum and the branching ratio are given.

Supersymmetry for Fermion Masses
It is proposed that supersymmetry (SUSY) maybe used to understand fermion mass hierarchies. A family symmetry Z_{3L} is introduced, which is the cyclic symmetry among the three generation SU(2) doublets. SUSY breaks at a high energy scale ~ 10^{11} GeV. The electroweak energy scale ~ 100 GeV is unnaturally small. No additional global symmetry, like the R-parity, is imposed. The Yukawa couplings and R-parity violating couplings all take their natural values which are about (10^0-10^{-2}). Under the family symmetry, only the third generation charged fermions get their masses. This family symmetry is broken in the soft SUSY breaking terms which result in a hierarchical pattern of the fermion masses. It turns out that for the charged leptons, the tau mass is from the Higgs vacuum expectation value (VEV) and the sneutrino VEVs, the muon mass is due to the sneutrino VEVs, and the electron gains its mass due to both Z_{3L} and SUSY breaking. The large neutrino mixing are produced with neutralinos playing the partial role of right-handed neutrinos. |V_{e3}| which is for nu_e-nu_{tau} mixing is expected to be about 0.1. For the quarks, the third generation masses are from the Higgs VEVs, the second generation masses are from quantum corrections, and the down quark mass due to the sneutrino VEVs. It explains m_c/m_s, m_s/m_e, m_d>m_u and so on. Other aspects of the model are discussed.

A Supersymmetric model with the gauge symmetry SU(3)(1) x SU(2)(1) x U(1)(1) x SU(3)(2) x SU(2)(2) x U(1)(2)
A supersymmetric model with two copies of the Standard Model gauge groups is constructed in the gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking scenario. The supersymmetry breaking messengers axe in a simple form. The Standard Model is obtained after first step gauge symmetry breaking. In the case of one copy of the gauge interactions being strong, a scenario of electroweak symmetry breaking is discussed, and the gauginos are generally predicted to be heavier than the sfermions.

LHCb $\bigtriangleup A_{CP}$ of $D$ Meson and R-Parity Violation
LHCb collaboration has recently announced a measurement of the difference of time-integrated CP asymmetries between $D\rightarrow K^+K^-$ and $D \rightarrow \pi^+\pi^-$. This result provides the evidence of large direct CP violation in $D$ meson and reveals some important implications on underlying new physics. It is shown that the direct CP violation in $D$ meson can be enhanced by R-parity violating supersymmetry, while CP violations in $K$ and $B$ mesons are suppressed by this new physics, which is in consistence with previous experiments. Constraints on the model parameters and some consequences are also discussed.

Phenomenological aspects of R-parity violating supersymmetry with a vectorlike extra generation
Phenomenological analysis to the R-parity violating supersymmetry with a vectorlike extra generation is performed in detail. It is found that, via the trilinear couplings, the correct neutrino spectrum can be obtained. The Higgs mass rises to 125 GeV by new up-type Yukawa couplings of vectorlike quarks with no need of very heavy superpartners. Phenomena of new heavy fermions at LHC are predicted.

A heavy Higgs particle in the TeV mass range
Abstract The first simulation results are presented on Higgs mass calculations in the spontaneously broken phase of the Higgs sector in the minimal Standard Model with higher derivative regulator. A heavy Higgs particle is found in the TeV mass range in the presence of a complex conjugate ghost pair at higher energies. The ghost pair evades easy experimental detection and a nonperturbative reinterpretation of the triviality Higgs mass bound becomes necessary.

Target-space duality between simple compact Lie groups and Lie algebras under the Hamiltonian formalism: I. Remnants of duality at the classical level
AbstractIt has been suggested that a possible classical remnant of the phenomenon of target-space duality (T-duality) would be the equivalence of the classical string Hamiltonian systems. Given a simple compact Lie groupG with a bi-invariant metric and a generating function Γ suggested in the physics literature, we follow the above line of thought and work out the canonical transformation Φ generated by Γ together with an Ad-invariant metric and a B-field on the associated Lie algebra
$$\mathfrak{g}$$
 ofG so thatG and
$$\mathfrak{g}$$
 form a string target-space dual pair at the classical level under the Hamiltonian formalism. In this article, some general features of this Hamiltonian setting are discussed. We study properties of the canonical transformation Φ including a careful analysis of its domain and image. The geometry of the T-dual structure on
$$\mathfrak{g}$$
 is lightly touched. We leave the task of tracing back the Hamiltonian formalism at the quantum level to the sequel of this paper.

A high dynamic range data acquisition system for a solid-state electron electric dipole moment experiment.
We have built a high precision (24-bit) data acquisition (DAQ) system capable of simultaneously sampling eight input channels for the measurement of the electric dipole moment of the electron. The DAQ system consists of two main components: a master board for DAQ control and eight individual analog-to-digital converter (ADC) boards for signal processing. This custom DAQ system provides galvanic isolation of the ADC boards from each other and the master board using fiber optic communication to reduce the possibility of ground loop pickup and attain ultimate low levels of channel cross-talk. In this paper, we describe the implementation of the DAQ system and scrutinize its performance.

Strongly interacting Higgs sector without technicolor
Simulation results are presented on Higgs mass calculations in the spontaneously broken phase of the Higgs sector in the minimal Standard Model with a higher derivative regulator. A heavy Higgs particle is found in the TeV mass range in the presence of a complex conjugate ghost pair at higher energies. The ghost pair evades easy experimental detection. As a finite and unitary theory in the continuum, this model serves as an explicit and simple example of a strongly interacting Higgs sector without technicolor.
