Hybrid (exotic) mesons, which are important predictions of quantum chromodynamics (QCD), are states of quarks and antiquarks bound by excited gluons. First principle lattice study of such states would help us understand the role of "dynamical" color in low energy QCD and provide valuable information for experimental search for these new particles. In this paper, we apply both improved gluon and quark actions to the hybrid mesons, which might be much more efficient than the previous works in reducing lattice spacing error and finite volume effect. Quenched simulations were done at β=2.6 and on a ξ=3 anisotropic 123×36 lattice using our PC cluster. We obtain 2013±26±71 MeV for the mass of the 1-+ hybrid meson [Formula: see text] in the light quark sector, and 4369±37±99 MeV in the charm quark sector; the mass splitting between the 1-+ hybrid meson [Formula: see text] in the charm quark sector and the spin averaged S-wave charmonium mass is estimated to be 1302±37±99 MeV. As a byproduct, we obtain 1438±32±57 MeV for the mass of a P-wave 1++[Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text] meson and 1499±28±65 MeV for the mass of a P-wave 1++[Formula: see text] meson, which are comparable to their experimental value 1426 MeV for the f1(1420) meson. The first error is statistical, and the second one is systematical. The mixing of the hybrid meson with a four quark state is also discussed.

We try to understand the strangeness changing nonleptonic decays of kaons, hyperons, and the Ω− particle in terms of the modern, renormalized weak Hamiltonian expressed as a sum of four-quark Wilson operators, including the so-called penguin operators c5O5 and c6O6 arising from gluon radiative corrections. It is found that these decays, including the long-standing s-wave/p-wave puzzle in hyperon decays, can be understood if the Wilson coefficient [Formula: see text] has a sign opposite to that obtained from short-distance perturbative quantum chromodynamics calculations and has an effective value such that [Formula: see text].

In the past four years we have witnessed the renaissance of the hadron spectroscopy. Many interesting new hadron states were discovered experimentally, some of which do not fit into the quark model easily. I will give a concise overview of these states and their possible interpretations. Topics covered in this review are: (1) candidates of new light hadrons including [Formula: see text] threshold enhancement, X(1835), X(1576), f0(1810), recent candidates of the 1-+ exotic mesons, Y(2175), [Formula: see text] threshold enhancement etc. (2) charmed mesons including p-wave non-strange charmed mesons, Dsj(2317) and Dsj(2460), recent candidates of higher excited charmed mesons, Dsj(2632) etc. (3) charmonium and charmonium-like states such as X(3872), Y(4260), X(3940), Y(3940), Z(3930) etc. The effect from the nearby S-wave open channels on the quark model spectrum above or near strong decay threshold is emphasized. Dynamical lattice simulations of DK and [Formula: see text] scattering and the extraction of their phase shifts may help resolve the underlying structure of Dsj(2317), Dsj(2460) and X(3872).

The effects of intermediate charmed mesons on charmonium transitions with the emission of one pion or eta meson are studied systematically. Based on a non-relativistic effective field theory we show that charmed meson loops are enhanced compared to the corresponding tree-level contributions for transitions between two S-wave charmonia as well as for transitions between two P-wave charmonia. On the contrary, for the transitions between one S-wave and one P-wave charmonium state, the loops need to be analyzed case by case and often appear to be suppressed. Extending these considerations to the b-quark sector, we propose a new method to extract the light quark mass ratio mu/md using the ϒ(4S) → hbπ0(η) bottomonia transitions.

AbstractThe Dinarides fold-thrust belt on the Balkan Peninsula resulted from convergence between the Adriatic and Eurasian plates since Mid-Jurassic times. Under the Dinarides, S-wave receiver functions, P-wave tomographic models, and shear-wave splitting data show anomalously thin lithosphere overlying a short down-flexed slab geometry. This geometry suggests a delamination of Adriatic lithosphere. Here, we link the evolution of this continental convergence system to hitherto unreported sets of extensively uplifted Oligocene–Miocene (28–17 Ma) marine terraces preserved at elevations of up to 600 m along the Dinaric coastal range. River incision on either side of the Mediterranean-Black Sea drainage divide is comparable to the amounts of terrace uplift. The preservation of the uplifted terraces implies that the most External Dinarides did not experience substantial deformation other than surface uplift in the Neogene. These observations and the contemporaneous emplacement of igneous rocks (33–22 Ma) in the internal Dinarides suggest that the Oligo-Miocene orogen-wide uplift was driven by post-break-off delamination of the Adriatic lithospheric mantle, this was followed by isostatic readjustment of the remaining crust. Our study details how lithospheric delamination exerts an important control on crustal deformation and that its crustal signature and geomorphic imprint can be preserved for millions of years.

AbstractThere are many successful geothermal projects that exploit the Upper Jurassic aquifer at 2–3 km depth in the German Molasse Basin. However, up to now, only P-wave seismic exploration has been carried out. In an experiment in the Greater Munich area, we recorded S-waves that were generated by the conventional P-wave seismic survey, using 3C receivers. From this, we built a 3D volume of P- to S-converted (PS) waves using the asymptotic conversion point approach. By combining the P-volume and the resulting PS-seismic volume, we were able to derive the spatial distribution of the vp/vs ratio of both the Molasse overburden and the Upper Jurassic reservoir. We found that the vp/vs ratios for the Molasse units range from 2.0 to 2.3 with a median of 2.15, which is much higher than previously assumed. This raises the depth of hypocenters of induced earthquakes in surrounding geothermal wells. The vp/vs ratios found in the Upper Jurassic vary laterally between 1.5 and 2.2. Since no boreholes are available for verification, we test our results against an independently derived facies classification of the conventional 3D seismic volume and found it correlates well. Furthermore, we see that low vp/vs ratios correlate with high vp and vs velocities. We interpret the latter as dolomitized rocks, which are connected with enhanced permeability in the reservoir. We conclude that 3C registration of conventional P-wave surveys is worthwhile.

Deep Learning Model

This study presents an approach based on deep learning to design layered periodic wave barriers with consideration of typical range of soil parameters. Three cases are considered where P wave and S wave exist separately or simultaneously. The deep learning model is composed of an autoencoder with a pretrained decoder which has three branches to output frequency attenuation domains for three different cases. A periodic activation function is used to improve the design accuracy, and condition variables are applied in the code layer of the autoencoder to meet the requirements of practical multi working conditions. Forty thousand sets of data are generated to train, validate, and test the model, and the designed results are highly consistent with the targets. The presented approach has great generality, feasibility, rapidity, and accuracy on designing layered periodic wave barriers which exhibit good performance in wave suppression in targeted frequency range.

Counting Rules

Even though quantum chromodynamics is a broken conformal theory, the AdS/CFT correspondence has led to important insights into the properties of QCD. For example, as shown by Polchinski and Strassler, dimensional counting rules for the power-law falloff of hadron scattering amplitudes follow from dual holographic models with conformal behavior at short distances and confinement at large distances. We find that one also obtains a remarkable representation of the entire light-quark meson and baryon spectrum, including all orbital excitations, based on only one mass parameter. We also show how hadron light-front wavefunctions and hadron form factors in both the space-like and time-like regions can be predicted.

Attenuation Profiles

In this paper, a modification of an existing method for estimating relative P-wave attenuation is proposed. By generating synthetic waveforms without attenuation, the variation of geometrical spreading related to changes in formation properties with depth can be accounted for. With the modified method, reliable P- and S-wave attenuation logs can be extracted from monopole array acoustic waveform log data. Synthetic tests show that the P- and S-wave attenuation values estimated from synthetic waveforms agree well with their respective model values. In‐situ P- and S-wave attenuation profiles provide valuable information about reservoir rock properties. Field data processing results show that this method gives robust estimates of intrinsic attenuation. The attenuation profiles calculated independently from each waveform of an eight‐receiver array are consistent with one another. In fast formations where S-wave velocity exceeds the borehole fluid velocity, both P-wave attenuation ([Formula: see text]) and S-wave attenuation ([Formula: see text]) profiles can be obtained. P- and S-wave attenuation profiles and their comparisons are presented for three reservoirs. Their correlations with formation lithology, permeability, and fractures are also presented.

In a pilot vertical seismic profiling study, P-wave and cross‐polarized S-wave vibrators were used to investigate the potential utility of shear‐wave anisotropy measurements in characterizing a fractured rock mass. The caprock at The Geysers geothermal field was found to exhibit about an 11 percent velocity variation between SH-waves and SV-waves generated by rotating the S-wave vibrator orientation to two orthogonal polarizations for each survey level in the well. The effect is generally consistent with the equivalent anisotropy expected from the known fracture geometry.

Abstract Except for its very onset, the P wave of earthquakes and chemical explosions observed at two narrow-aperture arrays on hard-rock sites in the Adirondack Mountains have a nearly random polarization. The amount of energy on the vertical, radial, and transverse components is about equal over the frequency range 5 to 30 Hz, for the entire seismogram. The spatial coherence of the seismograms is approximately exp(−cfΔx), where c is in the range 0.4 to 0.7 km−1Hz−1, f is frequency and Δx is the distance between array elements. Vertical, radial, and transverse components were quite coherent over the aperture of the array, indicating that the transverse motion of the compressional wave is a property of relatively large (106 m3) volumes of rock, and not just an anomaly caused by a malfunctioning instrument, poor instrument-rock coupling, or out-crop-scale effects. The spatial coherence is approximately independent of component, epicentral azimuth and range, and whether P- or S-wave coda is being considered, at least for propagation distances between 5 and 170 km. These results imply a strongly and three-dimensionally heterogeneous crust, with near-receiver scattering in the uppermost crust controlling the coherence properties of the waves.
