I review the experimental evidence for the X(3915), the candidate nonstandard meson associated with ωJ/ψ resonance-like peaks in B → KωJ/ψ and γγ → ωJ/ψ near M(ωJ/ψ) = 3920 MeV, and address the conjecture that it can be identified as the χ′c2, the radial excitation of the χc2 charmonium state. Since the partial decay width for B → KX(3915) is at least an order-of-magnitude higher than that for B → Kχc2, its assignment as the χ’c2 is dubious.

The feasibility of a measurement of the partial decay width of the intermediate-mass Higgs boson(MH=120 GeV ) into two photons at a photon-photon collider is studied by a simulation. It is found that the two-photon decay width can be measured with the statistical error of 7.6% with the integrated luminosity of 10fb-1. We also discussed a possibility toward further improvement with sophisticated b-quark tagging technique.

Extending a previous analysis1 the double charmonium production [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] has been investigated with a data set of 155 fb-1 with the Belle detector. Theoretical predictions for the cross section are one order of magnitude lower than the measured value and this discrepancy is still not understood. In a very recent update with a dataset of 285 fb-1 strong evidence for a new charmonium state at a mass of 3.940 GeV was found.

AbstractIn this work, we study the strong decays of the newly observed $$\varXi (1620)^0$$ Ξ ( 1620 ) 0 assuming that it is a meson-baryon molecular state of $$\varLambda {\bar{K}}$$ Λ K ¯ and $$\varSigma {\bar{K}}$$ Σ K ¯ . We consider four possible spin-parity assignments $$J^P=1/2^{\pm }$$ J P = 1 / 2 ± and $$3/2^{\pm }$$ 3 / 2 ± for the $$\varXi (1620)^0$$ Ξ ( 1620 ) 0 , and evaluate its partial decay width into $$\varXi \pi $$ Ξ π and $$\varXi \pi \pi $$ Ξ π π via hadronic loops with the help of effective Lagrangians. In comparison with the Belle data, the calculated decay width favors the spin-party assignment $$1/2^-$$ 1 / 2 - while the other spin-parity assignments do not yield a decay width consistent with data in the molecule picture. We find that about 52–68% of the total width comes from the $${\bar{K}}\varLambda $$ K ¯ Λ channel, while the rest is provided by the $${\bar{K}}\varSigma $$ K ¯ Σ channel. As a result, both channels are important in explaining the strong decay of the $$\varXi (1620)^0$$ Ξ ( 1620 ) 0 . In addition, the transition $$\varXi (1620)^0\rightarrow \pi \varXi $$ Ξ ( 1620 ) 0 → π Ξ is the main decay channel in the $$J^{P}=1/2^{-}$$ J P = 1 / 2 - case, which almost saturates the total width. These information are helpful to further understand the nature of the $$\varXi (1620)^0$$ Ξ ( 1620 ) 0 .

We propose two different and complementary observables for singling out possible signals of physics beyond the Standard Model (SM) in the semi-leptonic decays [Formula: see text], both with the [Formula: see text] lepton and with a light lepton. The two observables are the partial decay width and a T-odd asymmetry, whose respective sensitivities to scalar and/or pseudo-scalar coupling are calculated as functions of the parameters characterizing new physics (NP). Two different form factors are used. Three particular cases are discussed and analyzed in detail.

The reactivity of sodium carbonate towards sulphur dioxide was studied in dependence on the effect of genesis of sodium hydrocarbonate as the parent substance of the reacting solid. The reactivity expressed by means of the effective rate constant differed approximately one half of order of magnitude among five various samples. A qualitative correlation has been found between the bulk density of the parent substance and the reactivity of active sodium carbonate prepared thereof. Experimental evidence is given that the effect of genesis of the parent substance is not decisive for the reactivity of the active sodium carbonate towards sulphur dioxide. Henceforth, as the decisive factor for the reactivity of the sodium carbonate the way of its preparation from the parent substance must be considered.

In this part the general solution developed in Part I is applied to the case in which the refractivity profile contains sharp layers (i.e. local regions where μ and dμ/dh change very rapidly compared with their rate of variation in a "standard" type atmosphere). It is found that such layers, when well developed, can cause distant fields of the order of magnitude of those which have been observed, but present experimental evidence seems to indicate that scattering from atmospheric turbulence is usually the important factor. An attempt is made to work out a physical interpretation of the field-formation below the elevated layer.
