Light meson parton distribution functions from basis light-front quantization and QCD evolution

Here, we investigate the parton distribution functions (PDFs) of the pion and kaon from the eigenstates of a light-front effective Hamiltonian in the constituent quark-antiquark representation suitable for low-momentum scale applications. By taking these scales as the only free parameters, the valence quark distribution functions of the pion, after QCD evolving, are consistent with the E615 experiment at Fermilab. In addition, the ratio of the up quark distribution in the kaon to that in the pion also agrees with the NA3 experimental result at CERN.

Conversion of Classical Light Emission from a Nanoparticle‐Strained WSe 2 Monolayer into Quantum Light Emission via Electron Beam Irradiation

Abstract Solid‐state single photon emitters (SPEs) within atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have recently attracted interest as scalable quantum light sources for quantum photonic technologies. Among TMDs, WSe 2 monolayers (MLs) are promising for the deterministic fabrication and engineering of SPEs using local strain fields. The ability to reliably produce isolatable SPEs in WSe 2 is currently impeded by the presence of numerous spectrally overlapping states that occur at strained locations. Here nanoparticle (NP) arrays with precisely defined positions and sizes are employed to deterministically create strain fields in WSe 2 MLs, thus enabling the systematic investigation and control of SPE formation. Using this platform, electron beam irradiation at NP‐strained locations transforms spectrally overlapped sub‐bandgap emission states into isolatable, anti‐bunched quantum emitters. The dependence of the emission spectra of WSe 2 MLs as a function of strain magnitude and exposure time to electron beam irradiation is quantified and provides insight into the mechanism for SPE production. Excitons selectively funnel through strongly coupled sub‐bandgap states introduced by electron beam irradiation, which suppresses spectrally overlapping emission pathways and leads to measurable anti‐bunched behavior. The findings provide a strategy to generate isolatable SPEs in 2D materials with a well‐defined energy range.

Search for light long-lived neutral particles that decay to collimated pairs of leptons or light hadrons in $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV with the ATLAS detector

A search for light long-lived neutral particles with masses in the O(MeV–GeV) range is presented. The analysis targets the production of long-lived dark photons in the decay of a Higgs boson produced via gluon–gluon fusion or in association with a W boson. Events that contain displaced collimated Standard Model fermions reconstructed in the calorimeter or muon spectrometer are selected in 139 fb -1 of $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV $pp$ collision data collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC. Background estimates for contributions from Standard Model processes and instrumental effects are extracted from data. The observed event yields are consistent with the expected background. Exclusion limits are reported on the production cross-section times branching fraction as a function of the mean proper decay length cτ of the dark photon, or as a function of the dark-photon mass and kinetic mixing parameter that quantifies the coupling between the Standard Model and potential hidden (dark) sectors. A Higgs boson branching fraction above 1% is excluded at 95% CL for a Higgs boson decaying into two dark photons for dark-photon mean proper decay lengths between 10 mm and 250 mm and dark photons with masses between 0.4 GeV and 2 GeV.

Light-driven hydrogen production from Photosystem I-catalyst hybrids

Solar energy conversion of water into environmentally clean fuels, such as hydrogen, offers one of the best long-term solutions for meeting future global energy needs. In photosynthesis, high quantum yield charge separation is achieved by a series of rapid, photoinitiated electron transfer steps that take place in proteins called reaction centers (RCs). Of current interest are new strategies that couple RC photochemistry to the direct synthesis of energy-rich molecules, offering opportunities to more directly tune the products of photosynthesis and potentially to increase solar energy conversion capacity. Innovative designs link RC photochemistry with synthetic molecular catalysts to create earth abundant biohybrid complexes that use light to rapidly produce hydrogen from water.

Synthesis and luminescent properties of a white light phosphor KBa{sub 2}Nb{sub 5}O{sub 15}:Na{sup +}, Dy{sup 3+} for light-emitting-devices

Graphical abstract: - Highlights: • A novel red phosphor KBa{sub 2}Nb{sub 5}O{sub 15}:Dy{sup 3+} was synthesized and investigated firstly. • Crystal structure and characteristic luminescence properties are discussed. • The charge compensation mechanism is also investigated. • It has low color tolerance and better CIE chromaticity coordinates. - Abstract: The white light emission phosphor KBa{sub 2}Nb{sub 5}O{sub 15}:Dy{sup 3+} was synthesized by solid-state method. X-ray diffraction (XRD) study reveals that all the Dy{sup 3+} doped phosphors are single phase. Strong excitation peaks of KBa{sub 2}Nb{sub 5}O{sub 15}:Dy{sup 3+} were found around 380–400 nm, matched well with the NUV LED chip. Under 388 nm excitation, the phosphor exhibited intense white emission by combining the two emission peaks at 477 nm and 572 nm, attributed to the characteristic {sup 4}F{sub 9/2}–{sup 6}H{sub 15/2} and {sup 4}F{sub 9/2}–{sup 6}H{sub 13/2} transition of Dy{sup 3+}. The optimum doping concentration of Dy{sup 3+} is found to be 3%, whose Commission International de l’ Eclairage (CIE) chromaticity coordinates and correlated color temperature are (0.395, 0.422) and 3925 K, respectively. The results indicate that the KBa{sub 2}Nb{sub 5}O{sub 15}:Dy{sup 3+} phosphor could be considered as a potential candidate for white-LEDs.
