We investigate the discovery potential of the predicted neutral hidden beauty N∗(11052) resonance through π-p scattering within an effective Lagrangian approach. Two reactions π-p→K-Σ+ and π-p→ηbn are studied in this work, with nucleon pole exchange as the background. It is found that the contributions of the N∗(11052) resonance give clear peak structures in the magnitude of 1 μb near the threshold of N∗(11052) in the total cross sections. The numerical results indicate that the center of mass energy W≃11–11.1 GeV would be the best energy window for searching the N∗(11052) resonance, where the N∗(11052) signal can be easily distinguished from the background. The COMPASS experiment at CERN’s Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) with pion beam of ≃280 GeV will be an ideal platform for searching the super-heavy resonance with hidden beauty, which is promising for testing the theoretical results.

Inspired by the observation of charmonium-likeZ(4200), we explore the discovery potential of the neutralZ0(4200)production by antiproton-proton annihilation with an effective Lagrangian approach. By investigating thep-p→J/ψπ0process including theZ0(4200)signal and background contributions, it is found that the center of mass energyEc.m.≃4.0–4.5 GeV is the best energy window for searching the neutralZ0(4200), where the signal can be clearly distinguished from background. The relevant calculations not only are helpful to search for the neutralZ0(4200)in the future experiment but also will promote the understanding of the nature and production mechanism of neutralZ0(4200)better.

Experimental results of the rapidity distributions of negatively charged pions produced in proton-proton (p-p) and beryllium-beryllium (Be-Be) collisions at different beam momentums, measured by the NA61/SHINE Collaboration at the super proton synchrotron (SPS), are described by a revised (three-source) Landau hydrodynamic model. The squared speed-of-sound parametercs2is then extracted from the width of rapidity distribution. There is a local minimum (knee point) which indicates a softest point in the equation of state (EoS) appearing at about40A GeV/c(or 8.8 GeV) incs2excitation function (the dependence ofcs2on incident beam momentum (or center-of-mass energy)). This knee point should be related to the searching for the onset of quark deconfinement and the critical point of quark-gluon plasma (QGP) phase transition.

The near threshold π- p →ηn reaction is studied within an effective Lagrangian approach and the isobar model. By considering the contributions from s- and u-channel nucleon pole and N*(1535) resonance, the total and differential cross-sections of the π- p →ηn reaction near threshold are calculated. Our theoretical results can fairly reproduce the current experimental data. It is also shown that while the center-of-mass energy lies in the range from the reaction threshold up to 1.65 GeV, s-channel N*(1535) resonance plays the dominant role. The effect from nucleon pole is found to be small but the interference terms between the N*(1535) resonance and the nucleon pole are significant. The contributions from t-channel processes are negligible in the present calculation.

Abstract Measurements of the differential cross sections of Z + jets and γ + jets production, and their ratio, are presented as a function of the boson transverse momentum. Measurements are also presented of the angular distribution between the Z boson and the closest jet. The analysis is based on pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1 recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC. The results, corrected for detector effects, are compared with various theoretical predictions. In general, the predictions at higher orders in perturbation theory show better agreement with the measurements. This work provides the first measurement of the ratio of the differential cross sections of Z + jets and γ + jets production at 13 TeV, as well as the first direct measurement of Z bosons emitted collinearly with a jet.

The total cross sections of the 12C+16O fusion have been experimentally determined at low energies to investigate the role of this reaction during late stellar evolution burning phases. A high-intensity oxygen beam was produced by the 5MV pelletron accelerator at the University of Notre Dame impinging on a thick ultra-pure graphite target. Protons and γ-rays were measured simultaneously in the center-of-mass energy range from 3.64 to 5.01 MeV, using strip silicon and HPGe detectors. Statistical model calculations were employed to interpret the experimental results. A new broad resonance-like structure is observed for the 12C+16O reaction, and a decreasing trend of its S-factor towards low energies is found.

The Higgs boson was discovered on the 4th of July 2012 with a mass around 125 GeV by ATLAS and CMS experiments at LHC. Determining the Higgs properties (production and decay modes, couplings,...) is an important part of the high-energy physics programme in this decade. A search for the Higgs boson production in association with a top quark pair (tt̄H) at ATLAS [1] is summarized in this paper at an unexplored center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, which could allow a first direct measurement of the top quark Yukawa coupling and could reveal new physics. The tt̄H analysis in ATLAS is divided into 3 channels according to the Higgs decay modes: H → Hadrons, H → Leptons and H → Photons. The best-fit value of the ratio of observed and Standard Model cross sections of tt̄H production process, using 2015-2016 data and combining all tt̄H final states, is 1:8±0:7, corresponds to 2:8σ (1:8σ) observed (expected) significance.

The main aim of the relativistic heavy-ion experiment is to create extremely hot and dense matter and study the QCD phase structure. With this motivation, experimental program started in the early 1990s at the Brookhaven Alternating Gradient Synchrotron (AGS) and the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) followed by Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven and recently at Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. These experiments allowed us to study the QCD matter from center-of-mass energies (sNN) 4.75 GeV to 2.76 TeV. Theϕmeson, due to its unique properties, is considered as a good probe to study the QCD matter created in relativistic collisions. In this paper we present a review on the measurements ofϕmeson production in heavy-ion experiments. Mainly, we discuss the energy dependence ofϕmeson invariant yield and the production mechanism, strangeness enhancement, parton energy loss, and partonic collectivity in nucleus-nucleus collisions. Effect of later stage hadronic rescattering on elliptic flow (v2) of proton is also discussed relative to corresponding effect onϕmesonv2.

The associate KΛ(1520) photon and hadronic production in the γp → K+Λ(1520), pp → pK+Λ(1520) and π-p → K0Λ(1520) reactions are investigated within the effective Lagrangian approach and the isobar model. We are interested in the contribution from the N*(2120) (previously called N*(2080)) resonance, which has a significant coupling to the KΛ(1520) channel. The theoretical results show that the current experimental data for the γp → K+Λ(1520) reaction favor the existence of the N*(2120) resonance, and that these measurements can be used to further constrain its properties. We present results, including the N*(2120) contribution, for total cross sections of the γp → K+Λ(1520), π-p → K0Λ(1520), and pp → pK+Λ(1520) reactions. For this latter one, we also calculate invariant mass and Dalitz plot distributions.
