su(2) and su(1,1) displaced number states and their nonclassical properties

We study su(2) and su(1,1) displaced number states. Those states are eigenstates of density-dependent interaction systems of quantized radiation field with classical current. Those states are intermediate states interpolating between number and displaced number states. Their photon number distribution, statistical and squeezing properties are studied in detail. It is show that these states exhibit strong nonclassical properties.Comment: 10 pages, 3 figure

Preliminary lattice study of σ\sigma meson decay width

We report an exploratory lattice investigation of $\sigma$ meson decay width using s-wave scattering phase for isospin I=0 pion-pion ($\pi\pi$) system. Rummukainen-Gottlieb formula is used to estimate the scattering phase, which demonstrate the presence of a resonance around $\sigma$ meson. Using the effective range formula we extract the effective $\sigma \to \pi\pi$ coupling constant as $g_{\sigma \pi\pi} = 2.69(44)$ GeV, which is consistent with theoretical predictions. The estimated decay width is about $236 \pm 49$ MeV. These simulations are carried out on a $16^3\times48$ MILC gauge configuration with the $N_f=2+1$ flavor of the "Asqtad" improved staggered dynamical sea quarks at $m_\pi / m_\sigma \approx 0.414$ and the lattice spacing $a \approx 0.15$ fm.Comment: Remove some typos and make it concise and easily understan

Studying κ\kappa meson with a MILC fine lattice

Using the lattice simulations in the Asqtad-improved staggered fermion formulation we compute the point-to-point $\kappa$ correlators, which are analyzed by the rooted staggered chiral perturbation theory (rS$\chi$PT). After chiral extrapolation, we secure the physical $\kappa$ mass with $835\pm93$ MeV, which is in agreement with the BES experimental results. The computations are performed using a MILC 2+1 flavor fine gauge configuration at a lattice spacing of $a \approx 0.09$ fm.Comment: Remove some typo

Odd-parity topological superconductor with nematic order: Application to CuxBi2Se3

CuxBi2Se3 was recently proposed as a promising candidate for time-reversal-invariant topological superconductors[1]. In this work, we argue that the unusual anisotropy of the Knight shift observed by Zheng[2], taken together with specific heat measurements, provides strong support for an unconventional odd-parity pairing in the two-dimensional E_u representation of the D3d crystal point group[1], which spontaneously breaks the three-fold rotational symmetry of the crystal, leading to a subsidiary nematic order. We predict that the spin-orbit interaction associated with hexagonal warping plays a crucial role in pinning the two-component order parameter and makes the superconducting state fully-gapped, leading to a topological superconductor. Experimental signatures of the E_u pairing related to the nematic order are discussed.Comment: accepted by Phys. Rev. B Rapid Communicatio
