Characterizing entanglement by momentum-jump in the frustrated Heisenberg ring at quantum phase transition

We study the pairwise concurrences, a measure of entanglement, of the ground states for the frustrated Heisenberg ring to explore the relation between entanglement and quantum phase transition associated with the momentum jump. The groundstate concurrences between any two sites are obtained analytically and numerically. It shows that the summation of all possible pairwise concurrences is an appropriate candidate to depict the phase transition. We also investigate the role that the momentum takes in the jump of concurrence at the critical points. We find that an abrupt momentum change rusults in the maximal concurrence difference of two degenerate ground states.

Rare Decays $B^0 \to D_s^{(*)+} D_s^{(*)-}$ and $B_s^0 \to D^{(*)+} D^{(*)-}$ in Perturbative QCD Approach

In decay modes $B^0 \to D_s^{(*)+} D_s^{(*)-}$ and $B_s^0 \to D^{(*)+} D^{(*)-}$, none of quarks in final states is the same as one of $B$ meson. They can occur only via annihilation diagrams in the Standard Model. In the heavy quark limit, we try to calculate the branching ratios of these decays in perturbative QCD approach without considering the soft final state interaction. We found branching ratios of $B^0 \to D_s^{(*)+} D_s^{(*)-}$ are at the order of $ 10^{-5}$, and branching ratios of $B_s^0 \to D^{(*)+} D^{(*)-}$ are of $10^{-3}$. Those decay modes will be measured in $B$ factories and LHC-b experiments.

Quantum state transfer via the ferromagnetic chain in a spatially modulated field

We show that a perfect quantum state transmission can be realized through a spin chain possessing a commensurate structure of energy spectrum, which is matched with the corresponding parity. As an exposition of the mirror inversion symmetry discovered by Albanese et. al (quant-ph/0405029), the parity matched the commensurability of energy spectra help us to present the novel pre-engineered spin systems for quantum information transmission. Based on the these theoretical analysis, we propose a protocol of near-perfect quantum state transfer by using a ferromagnetic Heisenberg chain with uniform coupling constant, but an external parabolic magnetic field. The numerical results shows that the initial Gaussian wave packet in this system with optimal field distribution can be reshaped near-perfectly over a longer distance.

Branching ratio and CP asymmetry of $B_s \to π^+ π^-$ decays in the perturbative QCD approach

In this paper, we calculate the decay rate and CP asymmetry of the $B_s \to π^+π^-$ decay in perturbative QCD approach with Sudakov resummation. Since none of the quarks in final states is the same as those of the initial $B_s$ meson, this decay can occur only via annihilation diagrams in the standard model. Besides the current-current operators, the contributions from the QCD and electroweak penguin operators are also taken into account. We find that (a) the branching ratio is about $4 \times 10^{-7}$; (b) the penguin diagrams dominate the total contribution; and (c) the direct CP asymmetry is small in size: no more than $3% $; but the mixing-induced CP asymmetry can be as large as ten percent testable in the near future LHC-b experiments.

Study of pure annihilation type decays $B \to D_s^{*} K$

In this work, we calculate the rare decays $B^0 \to D_s^{*-} K^+$ and $B^+ \to D_s^{*+} \bar{K}^0$ in perturbative QCD approach with Sudakov resummation. We give the branching ratio of $10^{-5}$ for $B^0 \to D_s^{*-}K^+$, which will be tested soon in $B$ factories. The decay $B^+ \to D_s^{*+} \bar{K}^0$ has a very small branching ratio at ${\cal O}(10^{-8})$, due to the suppression from CKM matrix elements $|V_{ub}^* V_{cd}|$. It may be sensitive to new physics contributions.
