PROSPECT OF PARTICLE PHYSICS IN CHINA
The nuclear physics and particle physics researches in China have a long tradition. BEPC is a milestone of the particle physics in China. The many interesting physics results were obtained from BEPC. Beijing Synchrotron Radiation Facility based on BEPC became the major synchrotron radiation facility in China. The upgrade of BEPC, which will increase the luminosity by two orders of magnitude, is going smoothly. The nonaccelerator based experiments were promoted also. Professor Yang made very important contribution to Chinese physics, especially to promote the large science facilities for the multiple discipline researches. The particle physics faces the great challenges, and meets the great opportunities in the 21st century. The medium-term plan of the particle physics in China was discussed.

Analysis and simulation of hadronic showers in a uranium gas-sampling calorimeter
Abstract The results of a simulation of the response of the L3 detector to hadrons is presented. The simulation is made on the basis of data obtained in the beam with the setup consisting of a uranium gas-sampling calorimeter with a bismuth germanium oxide calorimeter in front of it.

Searches for supersymmetry using the MT2 variable in hadronic events produced in pp collisions at 8 TeV
A bstractSearches for supersymmetry (SUSY) are performed using a sample of hadronic events produced in 8 TeV pp collisions at the CERN LHC. The searches are based on the MT2 variable, which is a measure of the transverse momentum imbalance in an event. The data were collected with the CMS detector and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 19.5 fb−1. Two related searches are performed. The first is an inclusive search based on signal regions defined by the value of the MT2 variable, the hadronic energy in the event, the jet multiplicity, and the number of jets identified as originating from bottom quarks. The second is a search for a mass peak corresponding to a Higgs boson decaying to a bottom quark-antiquark pair, where the Higgs boson is produced as a decay product of a SUSY particle. For both searches, the principal backgrounds are evaluated with data control samples. No significant excess over the expected number of background events is observed, and exclusion limits on various SUSY models are derived.

On integrable structure and geometric transition in supersymmetric gauge theories
A bstractWe generalize the exact field theoretic correspondence proposed in [1] and embed it into the context of refined topological string. The correspondence originally proposed from the common integrable structures in different field theories can be recast as a special limit of the refined geometric transition relating open and closed topological string partition functions. We realize the simplest examples of the correspondence explicitly in terms of open-closed geometric transition.

The present day mass function in the central region of the Arches cluster
We study the evolution of the mass function in young and dense star clusters by means of direct N-body simulations. Our main aim is to explain the recent observations of the relatively flat mass function observed near the centre of the Arches star cluster. In this region, the power-law index of the mass function for stars more massive than about 5–6 M⊙ is larger than the Salpeter value by about unity, whereas further out, and for the lower mass stars, the mass function resembles the Salpeter distribution. We show that the peculiarities in the Arches mass function can be explained satisfactorily without primordial mass segregation. We draw two conclusions from our simulations: (i) the Arches initial mass function is consistent with a Salpeter slope down to ∼1 M⊙, and (ii) the cluster is about half-way towards core collapse. The cores of other star clusters with characteristics similar to those of the Arches are expected to show similar flattening in the mass functions for the high-mass (≳5 M⊙) stars.

Cogeneration of dark matter and baryons by non-standard-model sphalerons in unified models
A bstractSphalerons of a new gauge interaction can convert a primordial asymmetry in B or L into a dark matter asymmetry. From the equilibrium conditions for the sphalerons of both the electroweak and the new interactions, one can compute the ratios of B, L, and X, where X is the dark matter number, thus determining the mass of the dark matter particle fairly precisely. Such a scenario can arise naturally in the context of unification with larger groups. An illustrative model embeddable in SU(6) × SU(2) ⊂ E6 is described in detail as well as an equally simple model based on SU(7).

Comments on the boundary scattering phase
We present a simple solution to the crossing equation for an open string worldsheet reflection matrix, with boundaries preserving a SU(1|2)2 residual symmetry, which constrains the boundary dressing factor. In addition, we also propose an analogous crossing equation for the dressing factor where extra boundary degrees of freedom preserve a SU(2|2)2 residual symmetry.

Towards multi-field D-brane inflation in a warped throat
We study the inflationary dynamics in a model of slow-roll inflation in warped throat. Inflation is realized by the motion of a D-brane along the radial direction of the throat, and at later stages instabilities develop in the angular directions. We closely investigate both the single field potential relevant for the slow-roll phase, and the full multi-field one including the angular modes which becomes important at later stages. We study the main features of the instability process, discussing its possible consequences and identifying the vacua towards which the angular modes are driven.
