TL;DR: In this paper, a measurement of the Z/gamma* boson transverse momentum spectrum using ATLAS proton-proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of root s = 7TeV at the LHC is described.
Abstract: This paper describes a measurement of the Z/gamma* boson transverse momentum spectrum using ATLAS proton-proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of root s = 7TeV at the LHC. The measurement is performed in the Z/gamma* -> e(+)e(-) and Z/gamma* -> mu(+)mu(-) channels, using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.7 fb(-1). Normalized differential cross sections as a function of the Z/gamma* boson transverse momentum are measured for transverse momenta up to 800 GeV. The measurement is performed inclusively for Z/gamma* rapidities up to 2.4, as well as in three rapidity bins. The channel results are combined, compared to perturbative and resummed QCD calculations and used to constrain the parton shower parameters of Monte Carlo generators.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors study the inducement of passive nonlinear sinks in linear vibrating systems and derive a set of modulation equations that is directly amenable to physical interpretation.
Abstract: We study the inducement of passive nonlinear sinks in linear vibrating systems. These are substructures that absorb vibrational energy in a one-way, irreversible fashion. The systems considered are composed of strongly coupled, grounded damped linear oscillators with a strongly nonlinear attachment at the end. Applying a complex averaging technique we derive a set of modulation equations that is directly amenable to physical interpretation, and provides insight into the energy pumping phenomenon. For the case of a two DOF system we show that nonlinear energy pumping occurs when a certain frequency of envelope modulation crosses through zero; then the dynamics of the envelope modulation of the motion resemble the dynamics of a forced rigid body. For the case of an impulsively loaded multi-DOF chain with a nonlinear attachment at the end, we show that after some initial transients the response of the nonlinear attachment sets to a motion dominated by a fast frequency identical to the lower bound of the propagation zone of the linear chain. This feature reduces the study of energy pumping in the chain to a two DOF equivalent problem. The applications of the energy pumping phenomenon to practical engineering problems are discussed.

TL;DR: Weak isosinglet neutral heavy leptons (m) have been searched for using data collected by the DELPHI detector corresponding to 3:3 106 hadronic Z0 decays at LEP1.
Abstract: Weak isosinglet Neutral Heavy Leptons (m) have been searched for using data collected by the DELPHI detector corresponding to 3:3 106 hadronic Z0 decays at LEP1. Four separate searches have been performed, for short-lived m production giving monojet or acollinear jet topologies, and for long-lived m giving detectable secondary vertices or calorimeter clusters. No indication of the existence of these particles has been found, leading to an upper limit for the branching ratio BR(Z0 ! m) of about 1:310−6 at 95% confidence level for m masses between 3.5 and 50 GeV/c2. Outside this range the limit weakens rapidly with the m mass. The results are also interpreted in terms of limits for the single production of excited neutrinos.
