Non-statistical event-by-event mean-pt fluctuations in Au + Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 130 and 200 GeV are analyzed in AMPT with string-melting, and the results are compared with STAR data. The...
The Friedberg-Lee model at finite temperature and density (2007)
Mao, Hong, Yao, Minjie, Zhao, Wei-Qin
The Friedberg-Lee model is studied at finite temperature and density. By using the finite temperature field theory, the effective potential of the Friedberg-Lee model and the bag constant $B(T)$ and...
Soliton solutions of the improved quark mass density-dependent model at finite temperature (2006)
Mao, Hong, Su, Ru-Keng, Zhao, Wei-Qin
The improved quark mass density-dependent model (IQMDD) based on soliton bag model is studied at finite temperature. Appling the finite temperature field theory, the effective potential of the IQMDD...
The linear sigma model at a finite isospin chemical potential (2006)
Mao, Hong, Petropoulos, Nicholas, Shu, Song, Zhao, Wei-Qin
The effect of finite isospin chemical potential to the effective masses of the mesons at finite temperature is investigated in the framework of the O(4) linear sigma model with explicit chiral...
Landau gauge condensates from global color model (2006)
We compute the dimension-2 gluon pair condensate $g^2$ and the dimension-4 mixed quark-gluon condensate $$ in Landau gauge within the framework of global color model. The result for the dynamical...
Insulin receptor signaling in long-term memory consolidation following spatial learning (2005)
Dou, Jing-Tao, Chen, Min, Dufour, Franck, Alkon, Daniel L., Zhao, Wei-Qin
Evidence has shown that the insulin and insulin receptor (IR) play a role in cognitive function. However, the detailed mechanisms underlying insulin's action on learning and memory are not yet...

Mixed tensor susceptibility of the QCD vacuum from effective quark-quark interactions (2004)
We calculate the mixed tensor susceptibility of QCD vacuum in the framework of the global color symmetry model. In our calculation, the functional integration over gluon fields can be performed and...
The mixed quark-gluon condensate is another chiral order parameter in QCD, which plays an important role in the application of QCD sum rules. In this letter, we study the properties of quark-gluon...
Abnormal cholesterol processing in Alzheimer's disease patient's fibroblasts (2003)
Franck Dufour, Wei-Qin Zhao, Lakshmi Ravindranath, Daniel L. Alkon
Cholesterol has recently received attention as a potentially important factor in Alzheimer's disease (AD) etiology. Caveolin, which binds cholesterol, plays a prominent role in cellular cholesterol...
