QCD sum rules for masses of excited heavy mesons
Abstract The masses of excited heavy mesons are studied with sum rules in the heavy quark effective theory. A set of interpolating currents creating (annihilating) excited heavy mesons with arbitrary spin and parity are proposed and their properties are discussed. Numerical results at the leading order of the O( 1 m Q ) expansion are obtained for the lowest doublets (0+, 1+) and (1+, 2+).

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.

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.

Analysis of Lambda(b) ---> Lambda(c) weak decays in heavy quark effective theory
The Lambda_b to Lambda_c semileptonic decay is analyzed in the framework of heavy quark effective theory to the order of 1/m_c and 1/m_b. The QCD sum rule and large N_c predictions to the decay form factors are applied. It argues that the subleading baryonic Isgur-Wise function in the large N_c limit vanishes. The decay rates, distributions and asymmetry parameters are calculated numerically. Some of the nonleptonic decay modes are discussed in the end.

A Model for neutrino warm dark matter and neutrino oscillations
Abstract The muon- and tau-neutrinos with the mass in the keV range, which are allowed in a low reheating temperature cosmology, can compose the warm dark matter of the universe. A model of four light neutrinos including the keV scale ν μ and ν τ is studied, which combines the seesaw mechanism and the Abelian flavor symmetry. The atmospheric neutrino anomaly is due to the ν μ – ν τ oscillation. The solar neutrino problem is answered by the oscillation into the light sterile neutrino, where the SMA, LMA, and LOW–QVO solutions can be accommodated in our scenario.

Decay Widths of Excited Heavy Mesons From QCD Sum Rules at the Leading Order of HQET
The widths for pionic decays of lowest two excited doublets (0+, 1+) and (1+, 2+) of heavy mesons are studied with QCD sum rules in the leading order of heavy quark effective theory. The ambiguity due to presence of two distinct 1+ states are solved. The soft pion approximation is not used. BIHEP-TH-97-005 AS-ITP-97-12 SNUTP 97-049 April 1997

Two particle states in an asymmetric box
The exact two-particle energy eigenstates in an asymmetric rectangular box with periodic boundary conditions in all three directions are studied. Their relation with the elastic scattering phases of the two particles in the continuum are obtained. These results can be viewed as a generalization of the corresponding formulae in a cubic box obtained by Luscher before. In particular, the s-wave scattering length is related to the energy shift in the finite box. Possible applications of these formulae are also discussed.

Glueballs at finite temperature inSU(3)Yang-Mills theory
Thermal properties of glueballs in SU(3) Yang-Mills theory are investigated in a large temperature range from $0.3T_c$ to $1.9T_c$ on anisotropic lattices. The glueball operators are optimized for the projection of the ground states by the variational method with a smearing scheme. Their thermal correlators are calculated in all 20 symmetry channels. It is found in all channels that the pole masses $M_G$ of glueballs remain almost constant when the temperature is approaching the critical temperature $T_c$ from below, and start to reduce gradually with the temperature going above $T_c$. The correlators in the $0^{++}$, $0^{-+}$, and $2^{++}$ channels are also analyzed based on the Breit-Wigner $\emph{Ansatz}$ by assuming a thermal width $\Gamma$ to the pole mass $\omega_0$ of each thermal glueball ground state. While the values of $\omega_0$ are insensitive to $T$ in the whole temperature range, the thermal widths $\Gamma$ exhibit distinct behaviors at temperatures below and above $T_c$. The widths are very small (approximately few percent of $\omega_0$ or even smaller) when $T T_c$ and reach values of roughly $\Gamma\sim \omega_0/2$ at $T\approx 1.9T_c$.

Radially Excited States of 1P Charmonia and X(3872)
The excited states of charmonia are numerically investigated in quenched lattice QCD with improved gauge and Wilson fermion actions formulated on anisotropic lattices. Through a constrained curve fitting algorithm, the masses of the first excited states in $0^{++}$, $1^{++}$, and $1^{+-}$ channels are determined to be 3.825(88), 3.853(57), and 3.858(70) GeV, respectively. Furthormore, a node structure is also observed in the Bethe-Salpeter amplitude of the $1^{++}$ first excited state. These observations indicate that X(3872) could be the first radial excitation of $\chi_{c1}$.

Review of D Semi-leptonic Decays
Semi-leptonic D decays continue to play an important role in the field of flavor physics. During this presentation, recent measurements from pseudo-scalar to pseudo-scalar modes, pseudo-scalar to vector modes, and rare modes will be discussed. These results are important for many purposes, such as validating the machinery of lattice QCD, extracting CKM matrix elements, and searching for new physics and new interactions.
