Renormalization constants (RCs) of overlap quark bilinear operators on $2+1$-flavor domain wall fermion configurations are calculated by using the RI/MOM and RI/SMOM schemes. The scale independent RC for the axial vector current is computed by using a Ward identity. Then the RCs for the quark field and the vector, tensor, scalar, and pseudoscalar operators are calculated in both the RI/MOM and RI/SMOM schemes. The RCs are converted to the $\overline{\mathrm{MS}}$ scheme and we compare the numerical results from using the two intermediate schemes. The lattice size is $48^3\times 96$ and the inverse spacing $1/a=1.730(4)\mathrm{GeV}$.

The observation of very-high-energy (VHE; > 10 GeV) γ-ray emission from γ-ray bursts (GRBs), especially in the prompt phase, will provide critical information for understanding many aspects of their nature including the physical environment, the relativistic bulk motion, the mechanisms of particle acceleration of GRBs, and for studying Lorentz invariance violation, etc. For the afterglow phase, the highest-energy photons detected to date by the imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes extend to the TeV regime. However, for the prompt phase, years of efforts in searching for the VHE emission has yielded no statistically significant detections. A wide field of view and large effective area above tens of GeV are essential for detecting the VHE emissions from GRBs in the prompt phase. The High Altitude Detection of Astronomical Radiation (HADAR) experiment has such merits. In this paper, we report the estimates of its expected annual GRB detection rate, which are obtained by combining the performance of the HADAR instrument with the theoretical calculations based on a phenomenological model to generate the pseudo-GRB population. The expected detectable gamma-ray signal from GRBs above the background is then obtained to give the detection rate. In the spectral model, an extra component is assigned to every GRB event in addition to the Band function. The results indicate that if the energy of the cutoff due to internal absorption is higher than 50 GeV, the detection rate for GRBs for the HADAR experiment is approximately two or three GRBs per year, which varies slightly depending upon the characteristics of the extra component.

A search for C P violation in Λ b 0 → p K − and Λ b 0 → p π − decays is presented using the full Run 1 and Run 2 data samples of p p collisions collected with the LHCb detector, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb − 1 at center-of-mass energies of 7, 8, and 13 TeV. For the Run 2 data sample, the C P -violating asymmetries are measured to be A C P p K − = ( − 1.4 ± 0.7 ± 0.4 ) % and A C P p π − = ( 0.4 ± 0.9 ± 0.4 ) % , where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. Following significant improvements in the evaluation of systematic uncertainties compared to the previous LHCb measurement, the Run 1 dataset is reanalyzed to update the corresponding results. When combining the Run 2 and updated Run 1 measurements, the final results are found to be A C P p K − = ( − 1.1 ± 0.7 ± 0.4 ) % and A C P p π − = ( 0.2 ± 0.8 ± 0.4 ) % , constituting the most precise measurements of these asymmetries to date.
