Performance of $b$-Jet Identification in the ATLAS Experiment

Abstract: The identification of jets containing b hadrons is important for the physics programme of the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. Several algorithms to identify jets containing b hadrons are described, ranging from those based on the reconstruction of an inclusive secondary vertex or the presence of tracks with large impact parameters to combined tagging algorithms making use of multi-variate discriminants. An independent b-tagging algorithm based on the reconstruction of muons inside jets as well as the b-tagging algorithm used in the online trigger are also presented. The b-jet tagging efficiency, the c-jet tagging efficiency and the mistag rate for light flavour jets in data have been measured with a number of complementary methods. The calibration results are presented as scale factors defined as the ratio of the efficiency (or mistag rate) in data to that in simulation. In the case of b jets, where more than one calibration method exists, the results from the various analyses have been combined taking into account the statistical correlation as well as the correlation of the sources of systematic uncertainty.

Synthesis of Titanium Dioxide Nanoparticles with Mesoporous Anatase Wall and High Photocatalytic Activity

Abstract: Mesoporous titanium dioxide nanosized powder with high specific surface area and anatase wall was synthesized via hydrothermal process by using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as surfactant-directing agent and pore-forming agent. The resulting materials were characterized by XRD, nitrogen adsorption, FESEM, TEM, and FT-IR spectroscopy. The as-synthesized mesoporous TiO2 nanoparticles have mean diameter of 17.6 nm with mean pore size of 2.1 nm. The specific surface area of the as-synthesized mesoporous nanosized TiO2 exceeded 430 m2/g and that of the samples after calcination at 600 degrees C still have 221.9 m2/g. The mesoporous TiO2 nanoparticles show significant activities on the oxidation of Rhodamine B (RB). The large surface area, small crystalline size, and well-crystallized anatase mesostructure can explain the high photocatalytic activity of mesoporous TiO2 nanoparticles calcined at 400 degrees C.

In Situ Passivation of PbBr64– Octahedra toward Blue Luminescent CsPbBr3 Nanoplatelets with Near 100% Absolute Quantum Yield

Abstract: Recently, the pursuit of high photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQYs) for blue emission in perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) has attracted increased attention because the QY of blue NCs lags behind those of green and red ones severely, which is fatal for three-primary-color displays. Here, we propose an in situ PbBr64– octahedra passivation strategy to achieve a 96% absolute QY for the ultrapure (line width = 12 nm) blue emission from CsPbBr3 nanoplatelets (NPLs), and both values rank first among perovskite NCs with blue emission. From the aspect of constructing intact PbBr64– octahedra, additional Br– was introduced to drive the ionic equilibrium to form intact Pb–Br octahedra. The reduced Br vacancy and inhibited nonradiative recombination processes are well proved by reduced Urbach energy, increased Pb–Br bonds, and slower transient absorption delay. Blue light-emitting diodes (LEDs) using NPLs were fabricated, and a high external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 0.124% with an emission line width of ∼12 nm wa...
