Measurement of the inclusive electron spectrum in charmless semileptonic B decays near the kinematic end point and determination of |Vub|

Abstract: We present a measurement of the inclusive electron spectrum in B → X_ueν decays near the kinematic limit for B → X_ceν transitions, using a sample of 88 × 10^6 BB pairs recorded by the BABAR detector at the Υ (4S resonance. Partial branching fraction measurements are performed in five overlapping intervals of the electron momentum; for the interval of 2.0 – 2.6 GeV/c we obtain ΔB (B → X_ueν) = (0.572 ± 0.041_(stat) ± 0.065_(syst)) × 10^(−3). Combining this result with shape function parameters extracted from BABAR measurements of moments of the inclusive photon spectrum in B → X_sγ decays and moments of the hadron-mass and lepton-energy spectra in B → X_clν decays we determine │Vub|= (4.44 ± 0.25 + 0.4_( exp−0.38SF) ± 0.22_(theory)) × 10^(−3). Here the first error represents the combined statistical and systematic experimental uncertainties of the partial branching fraction measurement, the second error refers to the uncertainty of the determination of the shape function parameters, and the third error is due to theoretical uncertainties in the QCD calculations.

Time reconstruction and performance of the CMS electromagnetic calorimeter

Abstract: The resolution and the linearity of time measurements made with the CMS electromagnetic calorimeter are studied with samples of data from test beam electrons, cosmic rays, and beam-produced muons. The resulting time resolution measured by lead tungstate crystals is better than 100 ps for energy deposits larger than 10 GeV. Crystal-to-crystal synchronization with a precision of 500 ps is performed using muons produced with the first LHC beams in 2008.

Search for hadronic decays of a light higgs boson in the radiative decay

Abstract: The authors search for hadronic decays of a light Higgs boson (A{sup 0}) produced in radiative decays of an {Upsilon}(2S) or {Upsilon}(3S) meson, {Upsilon} {yields} {gamma}A{sup 0}. The data have been recorded by the BABAR experiment at the {Upsilon}(3S) and {Upsilon}(2S) center of mass energies, and include (121.3 {+-} 1.2) x 10{sup 6} {Upsilon}(3S) and (98.3 {+-} 0.9) x 10{sup 6} {Upsilon}(2S) mesons. No significant signal is observed. We set 90% confidence level upper limits on the product branching fractions {beta}({Upsilon}(nS) {yields} {gamma}A{sup 0}) {center_dot} {beta}(A{sup 0} {yields} hadrons) (n = 2 or 3) that range from 1 x 10{sup -6} for an A{sup 0} mass of 0.3 GeV/c{sup 2} to 8 x 10{sup -5} at 7 GeV/c{sup 2}.

Measurement of the top quark mass with the collider detector at fermilab

Abstract: We present a new measurement of the top quark mass in t{ovr t} events in which both W bosons from top quarks decay into leptons (e{nu},thinsp{mu}{nu}) . We use events collected by the CDF experiment from p{ovr p} collisions at {radical} (s) =1.8 TeV at the Tevatron collider. We measure a top quark mass of 167.4{plus_minus}10.3(stat){plus_minus}4.8( syst) GeV /c{sup 2} from a sample of eight events. We combine this result with previous CDF measurements in other decay channels to obtain a final mass value of 176.0{plus_minus}6.5 GeV /c{sup 2} . {copyright} {ital 1999} {ital The American Physical Society }

Search for monotop signatures in proton-proton collisions at s =8TeV

Abstract: Results are presented from a search for new decaying massive particles whose presence is inferred from an imbalance in transverse momentum and which are produced in association with a single top quark that decays into a bottom quark and two light quarks. The measurement is performed using 19.7 inverse femtobarns of data from proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 8 TeV, collected with the CMS detector at the CERN LHC. No deviations from the standard model predictions are observed and lower limits are set on the masses of new invisible bosons. In particular, scalar and vector particles, with masses below 330 and 650 GeV, respectively, are excluded at 95% confidence level, thus substantially extending a previous limit published by the CDF Collaboration.

I and i

Abstract: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one. I remember first hearing about it at school. It seemed an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality. Usually familiarity dulls this sense of the bizarre, but in the case of i it was the reverse: over the years the sense of its surreal nature intensified. It seemed that it was impossible to write mathematics that described the real world in …

Fast parallel algorithms for short-range molecular dynamics

Abstract: Three parallel algorithms for classical molecular dynamics are presented. The first assigns each processor a fixed subset of atoms; the second assigns each a fixed subset of inter-atomic forces to compute; the third assigns each a fixed spatial region. The algorithms are suitable for molecular dynamics models which can be difficult to parallelize efficiently—those with short-range forces where the neighbors of each atom change rapidly. They can be implemented on any distributed-memory parallel machine which allows for message-passing of data between independently executing processors. The algorithms are tested on a standard Lennard-Jones benchmark problem for system sizes ranging from 500 to 100,000,000 atoms on several parallel supercomputers--the nCUBE 2, Intel iPSC/860 and Paragon, and Cray T3D. Comparing the results to the fastest reported vectorized Cray Y-MP and C90 algorithm shows that the current generation of parallel machines is competitive with conventional vector supercomputers even for small problems. For large problems, the spatial algorithm achieves parallel efficiencies of 90% and a 1840-node Intel Paragon performs up to 165 faster than a single Cray C9O processor. Trade-offs between the three algorithms and guidelines for adapting them to more complex molecular dynamics simulations are also discussed.
