We demonstrate that the propagator, derived from an Effective Field Theory (EFT) that incorporates Weinberger's compositeness theorem, provides a more general formula for describing S-wave near-threshold states. By fitting the lineshape using this propagator, we can extract the $Z$ factor for these states and elucidate their structures.

We study the anomalous cross-section lineshape of $e^+e^-\rightarrow D\bar D$ with an effective field theory. Near the threshold, most of the $D\bar D$ pairs are from the decay of $ψ(3770)$. Taking into account the fact that the nonresonance background is dominated by the $ψ(2S)$ transition, the produced $D\bar D$ pair can undergo final-state interactions before the pair is detected. We propose an effective field theory for the low-energy $D\bar D$ interactions to describe these final-state interactions and find that the anomalous lineshape of the $D\bar D$ cross section observed by the BESII collaboration can be well described.

With a combined analysis of data on $Υ(5S)\rightarrow h_b(1P,2P)π^+π^-$ and $Υ(5S)\rightarrow B^{(\ast)}\bar B^{(\ast)}π$ in an effective field theory approach, we determine resonance parameters of $Z_b$ states in two scenarios. In one scenario we assume that $Z_b$ states are pure molecular states, while in the other one we assume that $Z_b$ states contain compact components. We find that the present data favor that there should be some compact components inside $Z_b^{(\prime)}$ associated with the molecular components. By fitting the invariant mass spectra of $Υ(5S)\rightarrow h_b(1P,2P)π^+π^-$ and $Υ(5S)\rightarrow B^{(\ast)}\bar B^{\ast}π$, we determine that the probability of finding the compact components in $Z_b$ states may be as large as about $40\%$.

We revisit the compositeness theorem proposed by Weinberg in an effective field theory (EFT) and explore criteria which are sensitive to the structure of $S$-wave threshold states. On a general basis, we show that the wave function renormalization constant $Z$, which is the probability of finding an elementary component in the wave function of a threshold state, can be explicitly introduced in the description of the threshold state. As an application of this EFT method, we describe the near-threshold line shape of the $D^{\ast 0}\bar D^0$ invariant mass spectrum in $B\rightarrow D^{\ast 0}\bar D^0 K$ and determine a nonvanishing value of $Z$. It suggests that the $X(3872)$ as a candidate of the $D^{\ast 0}\bar D^0$ molecule may still contain a small $c\bar{c}$ core. This elementary component, on the one hand, explains its production in the $B$ meson decay via a short-distance mechanism, and on the other hand, is correlated with the $D^{\ast 0}\bar D^0$ threshold enhancement observed in the $D^{\ast 0}\bar D^0$ invariant mass distributions. Meanwhile, we also show that if $Z$ is non-zero, the near-threshold enhancement of the $D^{\ast 0}\bar D^0$ mass spectrum in the $B$ decay will be driven by the short-distance production mechanism. This conclusion is still true even if the long-distance production is enhanced by some unexpected mechanism.

Full drive-by-wire electric vehicles (FDWEV) with X-by-wire technology can achieve independent driving, braking, and steering of each wheel, providing a good application platform for autonomous driving technology. Path planning and tracking control, in particular, are critical components of autonomous driving. However, It is challenging to comprehensively design an robust control algorithm by integrating vehicle path planning in a complicated unstructured scenario for FDWEV. To address the above issue, this paper first proposes the artificial potential field (APF) method for path planning in the prescribed park with different static obstacles to generate the reference path information, where speed planning is incorporated considering kinematics and dynamic constraints. Second, two tracking control methods, curvature calculation (CC-based) and model predictive control (MPC-based) methods with the lateral dynamics model, are proposed to track the desired path under different driving conditions, in which a forward-looking behavior model of the driver with variable preview distance is designed based on fuzzy control theory. CarSim-AMESim-Simulink co-simulation is conducted with the existence of obstacles. The simulation results show that the proposed two control approaches are effective for many driving scenarios and the MPC-based path-tracking controller enhances dynamic tracking performance and ensures good maneuverability under high-dynamic driving conditions.

With the rapid development of autonomous driving, the attention of academia has increasingly focused on the development of anti-collision systems in emergency scenarios, which have a crucial impact on driving safety. While numerous anti-collision strategies have emerged in recent years, most of them only consider steering or braking. The dynamic and complex nature of the driving environment presents a challenge to developing robust collision avoidance algorithms in emergency scenarios. To address the complex, dynamic obstacle scene and improve lateral maneuverability, this paper establishes a multi-level decision-making obstacle avoidance framework that employs the safe distance model and integrates emergency steering and emergency braking to complete the obstacle avoidance process. This approach helps avoid the high-risk situation of vehicle instability that can result from the separation of steering and braking actions. In the emergency steering algorithm, we define the collision hazard moment and propose a multi-constraint dynamic collision avoidance planning method that considers the driving area. Simulation results demonstrate that the decision-making collision avoidance logic can be applied to dynamic collision avoidance scenarios in complex traffic situations, effectively completing the obstacle avoidance task in emergency scenarios and improving the safety of autonomous driving.

We study the production line shape of $B^\ast\bar B$ near threshold, where the $B^\ast \bar B$ pair comes from the resonance $X_b$. Our study shows that the line shape depends sensitively on the binding energy and the probability of finding an elementary state in the physical bound state. Both of the two parameters are crucial to identify the structure of $X_b$. Therefore, the line shape measurement can shed light on the structure of $X_b$.

We study the $N_c$ scalings of pion-nucleon and nucleon-nucleon scatterings and find that a consistent large $N_c$ counting can be established if we assume Witten's counting rules are applied to matrix elements or scattering amplitudes which use the relativistic normalization for the nucleons. With the pionless effective field theory, we also find that the $S$-wave nucleon-nucleon interaction is so strong that it should be treated nonperturbatively at the leading order in the $1/N_c$ expansion. By summing all the leading order diagrams, we find that the deuteron binding energy is of order $1/N_c$. In contrast, meson-meson interaction is so weak that loosely-bound meson-meson molecular states may not exist in the large $N_c$ limit.
