In this article, an angular analysis and a measurement of the differential branching fraction of the decay B0s→ϕμ+μ− are presented, using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0fb−1 of pp collisions recorded by the LHCb experiment at s√=7 and 8TeV.
Abstract: 
An angular analysis and a measurement of the differential branching fraction of the decay B0s→ϕμ+μ− are presented, using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0fb−1 of pp collisions recorded by the LHCb experiment at s√=7 and 8TeV. Measurements are reported as a function of q2, the square of the dimuon invariant mass and results of the angular analysis are found to be consistent with the Standard Model. In the range 1<q2<6GeV2/c4, where precise theoretical calculations are available, the differential branching fraction is found to be 3.5σ below the Standard Model predictions.

Inelastic extra U(1) charged scalar dark matter

Nobuchika Okada, +1 more
- 24 Jan 2020 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the present scalar dark matter (DM) annihilation cross section to bottom quark pairs through the Higgs boson exchange is smaller than about 10 − 10 − 31 − 3 for a wide DM mass range, which is much smaller than the required annihilation cross-section for thermal relic DM.

A Decision-Theoretic Generalization of On-Line Learning and an Application to Boosting

Yoav Freund, +1 more
TL;DR: The model studied can be interpreted as a broad, abstract extension of the well-studied on-line prediction model to a general decision-theoretic setting, and it is shown that the multiplicative weight-update Littlestone?Warmuth rule can be adapted to this model, yielding bounds that are slightly weaker in some cases, but applicable to a considerably more general class of learning problems.
