Precision studies of top quark properties are currently underway at the LHC and Tevatron colliders with the prospect of probing anomalous t-W -b interactions. In the mean time, recent experimental results for the B_{d,s} - \bar{B}_{d,s}…
We investigate the effect of near threshold resonances in reactive scattering at low energy. We find a general type of anomalous behavior of the cross sections, and illustrate it with a real system (H$_2$ + Cl). For inelastic processes, the…
We show that $\mathbb{Z}_3$-valued particle-vortex braiding phases are present in high density quark matter. Certain mesonic and baryonic excitations, in the presence of a superfluid vortex, have orbital angular momentum quantized in units…
Paraxial wave packets with discrete spatial, temporal, or spatiotemporal spectra are known to undergo periodic axial revivals on propagation in either free space or linear transparent, weakly dispersive media. Such spectacular revivals,…
In this note we address the problem of unconventional charmonium-like states from the standpoint of level spacing theory. The level distribution of the newly discovered vector resonances is compared to that of standard charmonia analyzing…
The exotic braiding of anyons is certainly the most tantalizing aspect of fractional quantum Hall states. Although braiding is usually thought as a two-dimensional adiabatic manipulation, the braiding phase can also be captured in one…
In d=2+1 dimensions, there exist field theories which are non-relativistic and superconformal. These theories describe two species of anyons, whose spins differ by 1/2, interacting in a harmonic trap. We compute the dimensions of chiral…
Asymmetric transmission of circularly polarized waves is a well-established property of lossy, anisotropic, two-dimensionally chiral patterns. Here we show that asymmetric transmission can be observed for oblique incidence onto any lossy…
By assuming that Y(4260) either is a $D_1\bar{D}$ molecular state, or has sizeable couplings with $D_0 \bar{D}^*$ and $D_1^\prime \bar{D}$, we investigate several decay modes of Y(4260). Under the special kinematic configurations, triangle…
With an assumption that in the Yang-Mills Lagrangian, a left-handed fermion and a right-handed fermion both expressed as the quaternion makes an octonion, and the gauge field can be treated as self-dual, we calculate the axial current and…
Avoided level crossings are associated with exceptional points which are the singularities of the spectrum and eigenfunctions, when they are considered as functions of a coupling parameter. It is shown that the wave function of {\it one}…
Quantum dots and single-molecule transistors may exhibit level crossings induced by tuning external parameters such as magnetic field or gate voltage. For Coulomb blockaded devices, this shows up as an inelastic cotunneling threshold in the…
Defects or junctions in materials serve as a source of interactions for particles, and in idealized limits they may be treated as singular points yielding contact interactions. In quantum mechanics, these singularities accommodate an…
We investigate the $B^+\to J/\psi \phi K^+$ decay via various rescattering diagrams. Without introducing genuine exotic resonances, it is shown that the $Z_{cs}(4000)$, $Z_{cs}(4220)$ and $X(4700)$ reported by the LHCb collaboration can be…
At high energies, single-photon photodetachment of alkali negative ions populates final states where both the ejected electron and the residual valence electron possess high angular momenta. The photodetached electron interacts strongly…
Random optical fields with two widely different correlation lengths generate far field speckle spots that are themselves highly speckled. We call such patterns speckled speckle, and study their critical points (singularities and stationary…
Partially quenched theories are theories in which the valence- and sea-quark masses are different. In this paper we calculate the nonanalytic one-loop corrections of some physical quantities: the chiral condensate, weak decay constants,…
