LEPTON FLAVOR VIOLATION IN INVERSE SEESAW MODEL
We analyze the lepton flavor violation processes μ-e conversion, li→ljγ and li→3lj in framework of the Standard Model (SM) extended with inverse seesaw mechanism, as a function of that parametrizes the departure from unitary of the light neutrino mixing sub-matrix . In a wide range of , the predictions on the μ-e conversion rates and the branching ratio of μ→eγ are sizeable to be compatible with the experimental upper limits or future experimental sensitivities. For large scale of , the predictions on branching ratios of other lepton flavor processes can also reach the experimental upper limits or future experimental sensitivities. The value of depends on the determinant of the Majorana mass term Mμ. Finally, searching for lepton flavor violation processes in experiment provides us more opportunities for the searches of seesaw nature of the neutrino masses.

125 GeV Higgs boson decays in the μ from ν supersymmetric standard model
Recently the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations have reported significant events that are attributed to the neutral Higgs boson with mass around 125 GeV. In this work, we investigate the signals of the Higgs boson decay channels $h\rightarrow\gamma\gamma$, $h\rightarrow VV^*$ ($V=Z,W$), and $h\rightarrow f\bar{f}$ ($f=b,\tau$) in the $\mu$ from $\nu$ supersymmetric standard model ($\mu\nu$SSM). In the numerical results, we show the light stop and stau effects on the signal strengths for the 125 GeV Higgs boson decay channels in the $\mu\nu$SSM, which can account for the updated experimental data on Higgs.

Elastic and inelastic neutrino deuteron scattering in effective field theory
Abstract The differential cross-sections for elastic and inelastic neutrino–deuteron scattering are calculated analytically using nucleon–nucleon effective field theory. For elastic scattering, the deuteron axial form factor and the deuteron strange magnetic moment form factor are computed to next-to-leading order, including two-body currents. For inelastic scattering, two neutral current processes νd → νnp , ν d→ ν np and one charged current process ν d→e + nn are computed to next-to-leading order. These depend on an isovector axial two-body matrix element whose value is yet to be fixed by experiment. Potential model calculations by Kubodera et al. and Ying et al. are reproduced for different values of the two-body matrix element. This implies that the differences between the two potential model calculations lie in their treatment of short distance physics. The charged current to neutral current ν d cross-section ratio is confirmed to be insensitive to short distance physics, and the same ratio is obtained by potential models and the calculation presented here, within 5%, for incident neutrino energies up to 20 MeV. The two-body matrix element could be fixed using the parity violating process e d→enp .

Observation of hypertritons in Au+Au collisions at \sqrt{s_{NN}} = 200 GeV
We report preliminary results of hypertriton observation in heavy-ion collisions at RHIC. We have identified 157 +- 30 candidates in the current sample containing ~10^8 Au+Au events at \sqrt{s_{NN}} = 200 GeV. The production rate of hypertriton is close to that of helium 3. No extra penalty factor is observed for hypertriton, in contrast to results observed at the AGS.

Search for Minimum Universal Extra Dimensions with Four Leptons Final State at CMS
In models where extra dimensions are accessible to all particles, a new set of particles is predicted with a mass spectrum that can mimic a SUSY scenario: all Standard Model particles will have so called Kaluza‐Klein partners. Recent studies of the CMS collaboration are presented on the sensitivity to searches for the minimum universal extra dimensions with a compactification scale up to 900 GeV−1, using the 4 leptons final state. These studies are based on detailed detector simulation, including all Standard Model backgrounds.

The L-G Phase Transition and the Nucleon–Nucleon Interaction Potential within QHD-I Model
The nucleon–nucleon interaction potential in hot/dense nuclear matter is studied within the QHD-I model. We find that a Yukawa potential, which contains attractive and repulsive terms, acting between nucleons is modified by the variation of the Debye mass. In particular, a nucleon system described by this Yukawa potential will be unbound at some critical T and μ. The critical point is very close to that of the L-G phase transition given in the literatures.

Minimum Shear Viscosity over Entropy Density at Phase Transition?: A Counterexample
Abstract The ratio η / s , shear viscosity (η) to entropy density (s), reaches its local minimum at the (second order) phase transition temperature in a wide class of systems. It was suspected that this behavior might be universal. However, a counterexample is found in a system of two weakly self-interacting real scalar fields with one of them condensing at low temperatures while the other remains in the symmetric phase. There is no interaction between the two fields. In our mean field analysis the resulting η / s is monotonically decreasing in temperature despite the second order phase transition.
