chiral susceptibility, the fermion number susceptibility, the thermal
susceptibility and the staggered spin susceptibility) are investigated both in
and beyond the chiral limit. To this end, we numerically solve the finite
temperature version of the truncated Dyson-Schwinger equations for fermion and
boson propagator. It is found that, in the chiral limit, the four
susceptibilities give the same critical temperature and signal a typical second
order phase transition. But the situation changes beyond the chiral limit: the
critical temperatures from the chiral and the thermal susceptibilities are
different, which shows that to define a critical region instead of an exclusive
point for crossover might be a more suitable choice; meanwhile, both the
fermion number and the staggered spin susceptibilities have no singular
behaviors any more, this may mean that they are no longer available to describe
the crossover properties of the system.

improved QCD-based predictions for the total inelastic photon-nucleon and

] | A new approach to effective theory of quarks in the instanton vacuum is presented. Exact equations for the quark propagator and Lagrangian are derived which contain contributions of all quark modes with known coefficients. The resulting effective Lagrangian resembles that of the Nambu--Jona--Lasinio model. The commonly used zero--mode approximation is shown to be invalid in the chiral limit. |

out-of-equilibrium conditions in the framework of AdS/CFT correspondence at
strong coupling, to gain useful insights on possible charge separation effects
that may happen in the very early stages of heavy-ion collisions. We first
construct a gravity background of a homogeneous mass shell with a finite
(axial) charge density gravitationally collapsing to a charged blackhole, which
serves as a dual model for out-of-equilibrium charged plasma undergoing
thermalization. We find that a finite charge density in the plasma slows down
the thermalization. We then study the out-of-equilibrium properties of Chiral
Magnetic Effect and Chiral Magnetic Wave in this background. As the medium
thermalizes, the magnitude of chiral magnetic conductivity and the response
time delay grow. We find a dynamical peak in the spectral function of retarded
current correlator, which we identify as an out-of-equilibrium chiral magnetic
wave. The group velocity of the out-of-equilibrium chiral magnetic wave is
shown to receive a dominant contribution from a non-equilibrium effect, making
the wave moving much faster than in the equilibrium, which may enhance the
charge transports via triangle anomaly in the early stage of heavy-ion
collisions.

usual standard model constituents. The data set includes the most up-to-date
results from deep-inelastic scattering and from jet production in hadron
collisions. Another feature is the inclusion in the fit of data from
determinations of the strong coupling alpha_s(Q) at large and small values of
the hard scale Q. Our motivation is to determine the extent to which the global
PDF analysis may provide constraints on the new fermion, as a function of its
mass and alpha_s(M_Z), independent of assumptions such as the mechanism of
gluino decays. Based on this analysis, we find that gluino masses as low as 30

15 GeV (25 GeV) are excluded if alpha_s(M_Z) varies freely (is equal to 0.118).

Furthermore our numerical results show that the flight time delay in these models is expected to be larger than the duration time of the short GRB, which opens a possibility of testing the scenario of mass varying neutrino with the short GRB. |

re-evaluate the standard approach to the calculation of central production of
dijets in quasi-elastic hadronic collisions. We find that the process is
dominated by the non-perturbative region, and that even perturbative
ingredients, such as the Sudakov form factor, are not under theoretical
control. Comparison with data allows us to fix some of the uncertainties.
Although we focus on dijets, our arguments apply to other high-mass central
systems, such as the Higgs boson.

quarkonia and thereby reveal their spin contents in a relativistic formalism.
We demonstrate that both the perturbative and non-perturbative contributions in
the operator product expansion follow a universal formula that identifies the
spin-rotation coupling with unit strength. This allows us to recognize the
total spin-1 of the vector and axial vector quarkonia in terms of the total
angular momentum of quarks and gluons. Specifically, we find the spin contents
of $J/\psi$, $\chi_{c1}$, $\Upsilon(1S)$, and $\chi_{b1}$ are slightly
different from the naive quark model picture. For example, the $J/\psi$ is
traditionally considered as an S-wave particle, but we find quarks do not carry

active flavors can lead to loss of sensitivity to the $\theta_{23}$ octant
(sign of $\sin^2\theta_{23}-1/2$) in long baseline experiments, because the
main oscillation probability
$P_0=4\sin^2\theta_{23}\sin^2\theta_{13}\sin^2\Delta_{31}$ can be degenerate
with the sum of the interferences with the solar oscillation amplitude and an
active-sterile oscillation amplitude in both neutrino and antineutrino
oscillations, depending on CP phases. In this paper, we show that the above
degeneracy is resolved by measuring the same beam at different baseline
lengths. We demonstrate that Tokai-to-Hyper-Kamiokande-to-Korea (T2HKK)
experiment (one 187~kton fiducial volume water Cerenkov detector is placed at
Kamioka, $L=295$~km, and another detector is put in Korea, $L\sim1000$~km)
exhibits a better sensitivity to the $\theta_{23}$ octant in those parameter
regions where the experiment with two detectors at Kamioka is insensitive to
it. Therefore, if a hint of sterile-active mixings is discovered in short
baseline experiments, T2HKK is a better option than the plan of placing two
detectors at Kamioka. We also consider an alternative case where one detector
is placed at Kamioka and a different detector is at Oki Islands, $L=653$~km,
and show that this configuration also leads to a better sensitivity to the
$\theta_{23}$ octant.

limit. The intrinsic charm parton distribution function (PDF) of a light meson,
which first arises at order $N_c^{-1}$, is explicitly expressed in terms of the
't Hooft wave functions of the light meson and an infinite towers of excited
charmed mesons. We also derive the functional forms from the two-dimensional
counterparts of the meson cloud model (MCM) and Brodsky-Hoyer-Peterson-Sakai

by the charm quark inside a light meson is found to decrease faster than
$m_c^{-4}$ with increasing charm quark mass.

a Majorana mass for the right handed neutrino at a scale appropriate for the
see-saw mechanism. The composite field formed by the condensate phase could
drive an early epoch of inflation. We find that to the lowest order, the theory
does not allow dynamical symmetry breaking. Nevertheless, thanks to the large
number of matter fields in the model, the suppression by additional powers in G
of higher order terms can be compensated, boosting them up to their lowest
order counterparts. This way chiral symmetry can be broken dynamically and the
infrared mass generated turns out to be in the expected range for a successful

In order to estimate the effect we derive the composition of cold nuclear matter at high densities and in beta equilibrium, a situation appropriate for neutron stars. The hadronic interactions are incorporated through the exchange of scalar and vector mesons in the frame work of relativistic mean field theory. In addition the effects of anomalous magnetic moments of nucleons are also considered. |

parameter space to a narrow band in m_0 - m_{1/2} (except at very large
\tan\beta). The Higgs mass and b-> s\gamma constraints produce a lower bound of
m_{1/2}>~{\sim} 300GeV and if the muon magnetic moment anomaly can be
interpreted as a 3\sigma deviation from the Standard Model, one also obtains an
upper bound of m_{1/2} <~900 GeV, making the SUSY spectrum well accessible to
the LHC. The B_s->\mu \mu decay is seen to be accessible to the Tevatron Run2B
with 15 fb^{-1} for \tan\beta>~30. However, only parts of the spectrum will be
accessible to the NLC if it's energy is below 800GeV. Non-universal soft
breaking opens new regions of parameter space. Thus the m_{1/2} lower bound
constraint of b->s\gamma and also the Higgs mass can be reduced greatly if the
gluino mass is assumed larger at the GUT scale (allowing for a lighter gaugino

open new allowed regions at relatively low m_{1/2} and high m_0 where dark

a weak scale MSSM7 model. We use the public GAMBIT global fitting framework and

scenarios that are well out of reach of the LHC, but will be probed by

which has better prospects for detection in collider experiments. The stau
co-annihilation region is excluded from the CMSSM at $2 \sigma$ but is present

the instanton calculation is in good agreement with the data once perturbative
corrections are included. These corrections clearly show the evolution of
$\alpha_s$. We also analyze the range of validity of the Operator Product
Expansion (OPE). In the $V-A$ channel we find a dimension $d=6$ contribution
which is comparable to the original SVZ estimate, but the instanton model
provides a different non-singular term of the same magnitude. In the $V+A$ case
both the OPE and the instanton model predict the same $d=4$ power correction
induced by the gluon condensate, but it is masked by much larger perturbative
contributions. We conclude that the range of validity of the OPE is limited to
$x\lsim0.3$ fm, whereas the instanton model describes the data over the entire

gluon plasma, 2-flavor and 3-flavor QGP are obtained. The basic idea is to
evaluate energy density $\epsilon$ first from grand partition function of
quasi-particle QGP and then derive all other thermodynamic functions from
$\epsilon$. Quasi-particles are assumed to have temperature dependent mass
equal to plasma frequency. Energy density, pressure and speed of sound are
evaluated and compared with available lattice data. We further extend the model
to finite chemical potential, without any new parameters, to obtain quark
density, quark susceptibility etc. and fits very well with the lattice results
on 2-flavor QGP.

The $\epsilon_b$ variable is sensitive to the $Z b \bar b$ couplings and thus plays a major role to give constraints on the nonuniversal interaction effects. Upon imposing the new data on $\epsilon_b$, we have the allowed range of the model parameter $\kappa_L = 0.0063 \pm 0.0030$ at 1-$\sigma$ level with $m_t = 175$ GeV. Along with the minimal contact term, we predict the new physics scale $\Lambda \sim$ 1.6 TeV. By combining the experimental results from all planes we obtain the allowed range of $\kappa_L$ : $0.003 < \kappa_L < 0.010$ at 95 % C.L.. |

to determine data biases induced by the selection criteria. As in previous
studies the fixed TCM accurately isolated jet-related and nonjet contributions
to spectra. It was observed that two selection criteria (V0M and SPD), based on
different pseudorapidity $\eta$ acceptances, bias the spectrum hard component

soft component is not significantly biased. In the present study TCM model
functions are adjusted (i.e. fitted) to accommodate data. The effect of
selection bias is then represented by smooth evolution of model parameters with
$n_{ch}$. To evaluate the quality of model fits, Z-scores (data-model
differences divided by statistical uncertainties) are evaluated and compared
with data/model ratios that are often used for such comparisons. Based on
Z-scores the variable TCM is compared with two other frequently-invoked models:
the Tsallis model and the blast-wave model as they have been recently applied
to the same spectrum data. The results are relevant to recent claims that
collectivity (various flow manifestations) as a possible manifestation of QGP
formation is observed in small systems. Data systematics suggest that these
$p$-$p$ $p_t$ spectra are consistent with conventional QCD.

neutrino mixing parameters to those obtained by means of frequentist

physical observables, is strongly preferred over the three neutrino mass
eigenstates scan and c) find that there is a weak-to-moderate preference for
logarithmic priors. These results establish the optimal strategy to
successfully explore the neutrino parameter space, based on the use of the
oscillation mass splittings and a logarithmic prior on the lightest neutrino
mass. We also show that the limits on the total neutrino mass $\sum m_\nu$ can
change dramatically when moving from one prior to the other. These results have
profound implications for future studies on the neutrino mass ordering, as they
crucially state the need for self-consistent analyses which explore the best
