The concentration characteristics of water-soluble ions in atmospheric fine particulate matter PM2.5 in Shenyang City were studied. Correlation analysis was carried out on the tested components. The results showed that SO42- and NO3- in the water-soluble ion concentration of PM2.5 in Shenyang City. The three ions of NH4+ account for a higher total ion concentration, accounting for 35.2%, 34.7%, and 11.6%, respectively. It was found that due to the unique terrain and climate of Shenyang, the spring pollution was more serious. Correlation analysis showed that the main forms of water-soluble ions in PM2.5 in Shenyang City were NO3NH4, KNO3, MgSO4, CaSO4 and so on.

Abundant Ψ' events have been collected at the Beijing Electron Positron Collider- II (BEPCII) that could undoubtedly provide us with a great opportunity to study the more attractive charmonium decays. As has been noticed before, in the process of J/Ψ decaying to the baryonic final states, pK−, the evident Λ* and N* bands have been observed. Similarly, by using the product of χcJ from Ψ' radiative decay, we may confirm this or find some extra new resonances. χc0's data samples will be more than χc1,2, taking into account the larger branching ratio of Ψ' → γχc0. Here, we provide explicit partial wave analysis formulae for the very interesting channel Ψ' → γχc0 → γpK−.

The calibration algorithm for RPC-based union detector at BESIII has been developed. The calibration method, calibration error and algorithm performance are studied. The primary results of efficiency and noise at layer, module and strip levels have been calibrated with cosmic ray data. The calibration constants are available for simulation and reconstruction timing. The results of Monte Carlo and data are also compared to check the validation and reliability of the algorithm.

Decays of both η and η' provide very useful information in our understanding of low-energy QCD, and experimental signatures for these decays would be extremely helpful at BES-III. The rare decays of the η and η' mesons could serve as a low-energy test of the Standard Model and its beyond. The sensitivities of the measurements of η and η' decays are discussed at BES-III, in which the η and η' mesons are produced in the ψ decays.

We study the branching ratios of D+→D0e+ν,DS+→D0e+ν,BS0→B+e-ν,DS+→D+e-e+ and BS0→B0e-e+ rare semileptonic decay processes,which are induced by decays of light quarks,the heavy quarks remain unchanged.The branching ratios of these decay processes are estimated in the heavy quark limit and with SU(3) ...

Cosmic-ray data of 90 M events have been collected and used for calibration, alignment as well as detector tuning. A special tracking algorithm for the BESIII muon counter is developed and verified with Monte-Carlo simulation and then further confirmed with the cosmic-ray data. The obtained strip resolutions are in good agreement with the design values. A new alignment approach for the BESIII muon counter is confirmed with the cosmic-ray data and proposed to be used in future analysis of experimental data.

Software alignment is quite important for a tracking detector to reach its ultimate position accuracy and momentum resolution. We developed a new alignment algorithm for the BESIII Main Drift Chamber using the Kalman Filter method. Two different types of data which are helix tracks and straight tracks are used to test this algorithm, and the results show that the design and implementation is successful.

The principle of the method for the BESIII event start time determination and the code construction are described. The investigation of influence of the noise, the method of rejecting noise and the performance checking by the Monte Carlo physics data sample are also presented. The preliminary results got from the Monte Carlo simulation are presented, the reconstruction efficiency of J/ψ → anything events at noise level 0~60% can achieve above 99%, and the error rate is below 1%.

The results of a study of event tagging strategies for elementary physics processes in the τ-charm region are presented. The algorithm for online event filtering is optimized by adopting the information provided by different sub-detectors according to their strengths and capacities. The algorithm is tested with various generated physics and background events. The results indicate that the algorithm satisfies the requirements of BESIII physics analysis and its DAQ system.

Material effect of inner-detectors on the performances of the BESIII Electromagnetic Calorimeter (EMC) is investigated. The BESIII Time-Of-Flight counters (TOF) have been utilized to improve the energy resolution and detection efficiency for photons after a careful energy calibration. A matching algorithm between TOF and EMC energy deposits is developed, and the effects of beam-related background are discussed. The energy resolution is improved and the photon detection efficiency can be increased by the combined measurement of EMC and TOF detectors.

A multilayered perceptrons' neural network technique has been applied in the particle identification at BESIII. The networks are trained in each sub-detector level. The NN output of sub-detectors can be sent to a sequential network or be constructed as PDFs for a likelihood. Good muon-ID, electron-ID and hadron-ID are obtained from the networks by using the simulated Monte Carlo samples.

The phenomena of electron, neutron, atomic and molecular diffraction have been studied by many experiments, and these experiments are explained by some theoretical works. In this paper, we study electronic double-slit diffraction with quantum mechanical approach. We can obtain the results: (1) When the slit width $a$ is in the range of $3\lambda\sim 50\lambda$ we can obtain the obvious diffraction patterns. (2) when the ratio of $\frac{d+a}{a}=n (n=1, 2, 3,\cdot\cdot\cdot)$, order $2n, 3n, 4n,\cdot\cdot\cdot$ are missing in diffraction pattern. (3)When the ratio of $\frac{d+a}{a}\neq n (n=1, 2, 3,\cdot\cdot\cdot)$, there isn't missing order in diffraction pattern. (4) We also find a new quantum mechanics effect that the slit thickness $c$ has a large affect to the electronic diffraction patterns. We think all the predictions in our work can be tested by the electronic double-slit diffraction experiment., Comment: 9pages, 14figures
