Midrapidity Neutral-Pion Production in Proton-Proton Collisions at √s = 200 GeV

Abstract: The invariant differential cross section for inclusive neutral-pion production in p+p collisions at roots=200 GeV has been measured at midrapidity (eta<0.35) over the range 1

A security credential management system for V2V communications

Abstract: We present a security credential management system for vehicle-to-vehicle communications, which has been developed under a Cooperative Agreement with the US Department of Transportation. This system is currently being finalized, and it is the leading candidate design for the V2V security backend design in the US, subject to review by the US Department of Transportation and other stakeholders. It issues digital certificates to participating vehicles for establishing trust among them, which is necessary for safety applications based on vehicle-to-vehicle communications. It supports four main use cases, namely, bootstrapping, certificate provisioning, misbehavior reporting and revocation. The main design goal is to provide both security and privacy to the largest extent reasonable and possible. To achieve the latter, vehicles are issued pseudonym certificates, and the provisioning of those certificates is divided among multiple organizations. One of the main challenges is to facilitate efficient revocation while providing privacy against attacks from insiders.

Dense-medium modifications to jet-induced Hadron pair distributions in Au+Au collisions at sNN=200GeV

Abstract: Azimuthal correlations of jet-induced high-p(T) charged hadron pairs are studied at midrapidity in Au+Au collisions at sqrt[s(NN)]=200 GeV. The distribution of jet-associated partner hadrons (1.0

Measurement of neutral mesons in p+p collisions at √s=200GeV and scaling properties of hadron production

Abstract: The PHENIX experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider has measured the invariant differential cross section for production of K-S(0), omega, eta', and phi mesons in p + p collisions at root s 200 GeV. Measurements of omega and phi production in different decay channels give consistent results. New results for the omega are in agreement with previously published data and extend the measured p(T) coverage. The spectral shapes of all hadron transverse momentum distributions measured by PHENIX are well described by a Tsallis distribution functional form with only two parameters, n and T, determining the high-p(T) and characterizing the low-p(T) regions of the spectra, respectively. The values of these parameters are very similar for all analyzed meson spectra, but with a lower parameter T extracted for protons. The integrated invariant cross sections calculated from the fitted distributions are found to be consistent with existing measurements and with statistical model predictions.

An impedimetric biosensor based on electrophoretically assembled ZnO nanorods and carboxylated graphene nanoflakes on an indium tin oxide electrode for detection of the DNA of Escherichia coli O157:H7

Abstract: Aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APTMS)-functionalized zinc oxide (ZnO) nanorods and carboxylated graphene nanoflakes (c-GNF) were used in a composite that was electrophoretically deposited on an indium tin oxide (ITO) coated glass substrate. The modified ITO electrodes were characterized using various microscopic and spectroscopic techniques which confirm the deposition of the APTMS-ZnO/c-GNF composite. The electrodes have been used for the covalent immobilization of an Escherichia coli O157:H7 (E. coli)-specific DNA prob. Impedimetric studies revealed that the gene sensor displays linear response in a wide range of target DNA concentration (10−16 M to 10−6 M) with a detection limit of 0.1 fM. The studies on the cross-reactivity to other water-borne pathogens show that the bioelectrode is highly specific.
