Search for Exotic Strange Dibaryon in Relativistic Heavy Ion Collisions

The exotic strange dibaryon particle (ΩΩ)0+ with S = -6 can be produced in relativistic heavy ion collisions. The yields of this kind of exotic strange dibaryon particles can increase signitlcantly soon as the formation of QGP does exhibit after the collision. If there is no phase transition after the collision, the upper bound of the production of this diomega can be estimated from the free hadronic gas model for nuclear matter. The relative yield ratio of diomega to deuteron is less than 0.000205, this means that if there is no QGP creation it is difficult to observe the production of diomega in relativistic heavy ion collisions.

Structures of（ΩΩ）0＋and（[1]Ω）1＋in Extended Chiral SU（3） Quark Model

The structures of (ΩΩ)0+ and ([1]Ω)1+ are studied in the extended chiral SU(3) quark model in which vector meson exchanges are included. The effect from the vector meson fields is very similar to that from the one-gluon exchange (OGE) interaction. Both in the chiral SU(3) quark model and in the extended chiral SU(3) quark model,di-omega (ΩΩ)0+ is always deeply bound, with over one hundred MeV binding energy, and ([1]Ω)1+ 's binding energy is around 20 MeV. An analysis shows that the quark exchange effect plays a very important role for making di-omega (ΩΩ)0+ deeply bound.

Carbon, Nitrogen, and Chalcogen Substitution Effects on 2,1,3-Benzothiadiazole Derivative： Theoretical Investigations of Electronic, Optical, and Charge Transport Properties

A series of CH2, NH, O, and Se substituted 2,1,3-benzothiadiazote derivatives have been designed and investigated computationally to elucidate their potential as organic light-emitting materials for organic light-emitting diodes. Both ab initio Hartree-Foek and hybrid density functional methods are used. It is found that S by CH2, NH, O, and Se makes it possible transport properties of the pristine molecule adjusting the central aromatic ring by replacing to fine-tune the electronic, optical, and charge

Remote Preparation of a Two-Particle Entangled State by a Bipartite Entangled State and a Tripartite Entangled W State

We propose a scheme to remotely prepare a general two-particle entangled state by using a bipartite entangled state and a tripartite entangled W state as the quantum channel. Our scheme consists of one sender and two remote receivers. The sender can help either one of the receivers to remotely reconstruct the original state with the assistance of the other receiver＇s single-partlcle orthogona/measurement. We obtain the total success probability and discuss the classical communication cost in our remote state preparation scheme.

Influences of Organic Acids and Heavy Metals on Cr（VI） Photoreduction Catalyzed by TiO2 Suspension

Photocatalytic reduction of Cr（VI） by TiO2 suspension has been studied with the purpose of removing the toxic and carcinogenic Cr（VI） ions from water. The photocatalytic reduction was carried out in batch reactor, in which the influences of the presence ofmalonic and oxalic acids as well as of iron and lead ions on the degree of the reduction have been systematically evaluated. The results of the research indicated that the presence of malonic and oxalic acids with increasing concentration can improve the photoreduction. The increase in the Cr（V1） photoreduction is due to OH radical capturing by the organic acids so that it prevents the recombination of the OH radical and the free electron, and therefore can provide enough electron supply for Cr（VI） photoreduction. The effectiveness of Cr（VI） photoreduction is also enhanced by the addition of increasing concentration of both Fe（Ⅲ） and Pb（Ⅱ） ions through synergic effect. It is also found that the degree of the photopreduction is strongly influenced by solution acidity and the most effective Cr（VI） photoreduction is obtained at lower pH than 5, either in the absence or presence of the organic acids and the heavy metal ions.

Steam Reforming of Dimethyl Ether by Gliding Arc Gas Discharge Plasma for Hydrogen Production

Gliding arc gas discharge plasma was used for the generation of hydrogen from steam reforming of dimethyl ether(DME).A systemic procedure was employed to determine the suitable experimental conditions.It was found that DME conversion first increased up to the maximum and then decreased slightly with the increase of added water and air.The increase of total feed gas flow rate resulted in the decrease of DME conversion and hydrogen yield,but hydrogen energy consumption dropped down to the lowest as total feed gas flow rate increased to76 ml·min 1.Larger electrode gap and higher discharge voltage were advantageous.Electrode shape had an important effect on the conversion of DME and production of H2.Among the five electrodes,electrode 2#with valid length of 55 mm and the radian of 34 degrees of the top electrode section was the best option,which enhanced obviously the conversion of DME.

Theoretical Study on Vibrational Spectra, Detonation Properties and Pyrolysis Mechanism for Cyclic 2-Diazo-4,6-dinitrophenol

Based on the full optimized molecular geometrical structures at the DFT-B3LYP/6- 311＋G^＊＊ level, there exists intramolecular hydrogen bond interaction for cyclic 2-diazo- 4,6-dinitrophenol. The assigned infrared spectrum is obtained and used to compute the thermodynamic properties. The results show that there are four main characteristic regions in the calculated IR spectra of the title compound. The detonation velocities and pressures are also evaluated by using Kamlet-Jacobs equations based on the calculated density and condensed phase heat of formation. Thermal stability and the pyrolysis mechanism of 2- diazo-4,6-dinitrophenol are investigated by calculating the bond dissociation energies at the B3LYP/6-311＋G^＊＊ level.

The use of graphene oxide membranes for the softening of hard water

Strong chemical interactions between the oxygen-containing functional groups on graphene oxide(GO)sheets and the ions of divalent metals were exploited for the softening of hard water.GO membranes were prepared and evaluated for their ability to absorb Ca2+and Mg2+ions.These GO membranes can effectively absorb Ca2+ions from hard water;a 1 mg GO membrane can remove as much as 0.05 mg Ca2+ions.These GO membranes can be regenerated and used repeatedly.

Two Higgs Doublet Model Ⅲ and Double-Lepton Polarization Asymmetries in Λ_b →Λμ^+μ^- Decays

Using the form factors calculated both in lattice QCD and HQET, we analyze the branching ratio, doublelepton polarization asymmetries and averaged double-lepton polarization asymmetries of Λ_b →Λμ^+μ^- decay in the2 HDM Ⅲ, respectively. Combining the experimental constrains on the 2HDM Ⅲ parameters, we take two set of representative parameter spaces in our calculations. For the branching ratio of Λ+b →Λμμ-decay, considering the uncertainties of the form factors and input parameters, we find the results of both SM and 2HDM Ⅲ can satisfy the current experimental data in the framework of lattice QCD, but not in HQET. Then we calculate the double-lepton polarization asymmetries Pij and their averaged values Pij, we find the double-lepton polarization asymmetries PLT,PNN, and PTT are sensitive to the 2HDM Ⅲ. However, PLN, PNL, PNT, and PTN show the opposite results. The contribution of the 2HDM Ⅲ to their averaged values have similar results.

ON THE SECOND GREEDY WEIGHT FOR LINEAR CODES SATISFYING THE FULLRANK CONDITION

The maximum of g2-d2 for linear [n, k, d; q] codes C is studied. Here d2 is the smallest size of the support of 2-dimensional subcodes of C and g2 is the smallest size of the support of 2-dimensional subcodes of C which contains a codeword of weight d. The extra cost to the greedy adversary to get two symbols of information using some algorithm is g2-d2. For codes satisfying the fullrank condition of general dimensions, upper bounds on the maximum of g2-d2 are given. Under some condition we have got code C where g2-d2 reaches the upper bound.

Integrating lattice and gap plasmonic modes to construct dual-mode metasurfaces for enhancing light–matter interaction

Photonic structures with optical resonances beyond a single controllable mode are strongly desired for enhancing light±matter interactions and bringing about advanced photonic devices. However, the realization of effective multimodal photonic structures has been restricted by the limited tunable range of mode manipulation, the spatial dispersions of electric fields or the polarization-dependent excitations. To overcome these limitations, we create a dualmode metasurface by integrating the plasmonic surface lattice resonance and the gap plasmonic modes;this metasurface offers a widely tunable spectral range, good overlap in the spatial distribution of electric fields, and polarization independence of excitation light. To show that such dual-mode metasurfaces are versatile platforms for enhancing light±matter interactions, we experimentally demonstrate a significant enhancement of second-harmonic generation using our design, with a conversion efficiency of 1±3 orders of magnitude larger than those previously obtained in plasmonic systems. These results may inspire new designs for functional multimodal photonic structures.
