HADRONIC CROSS SECTION MEASUREMENT AT BES-III

2014

Measurements of the R ratio are closely related to two pre quantities, the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon (g - 2), and the value of the electromagnetic fine structure constant [Formula: see text]. Hadronic contributions to both quantities can be derived via dispersion integrals, using experimental R data as input. For the phenomenological evaluations of these contributions, different energy ranges of hadronic cross section data are required. At BES-III, Initial State Radiation (ISR) from an existing Ψ(3770) dataset will be used for measurements of hadronic cross sections below [Formula: see text], while for higher energies a dedicated energy scan program will be performed up to [For…

Leptons and QCD

2015

Three important QCD-related aspects of the τ and μ dynamics are reviewed: the determination of the strong coupling from the hadronic tau decay width, leading to the updated value αs(mτ2)=0.331±0.013; the measurement of |Vus| through the Cabibbo-suppressed decays of the τ, and the Standard Model prediction for the muon anomalous magnetic moment.

Real and Virtual Compton Scattering (experiments)

1999

This paper deals with Real and Virtual Compton Scattering off the proton at threshold and the way to deduce information about the nucleon polarizabilities.

The shape transition in the neutron-rich yttrium isotopes and isomers

2007

Abstract Laser spectroscopy has been used to study 86–90,92–102Y and isomeric states of 87–90,93,96,97,98Y. Nuclear charge radii differences, magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole moments have been obtained. Information on the nature of the Z ≈ 40 , N ≈ 60 sudden onset of deformation has been derived from all three parameters. It is seen that with increasing neutron number from the N = 50 shell closure that the nuclear deformation becomes increasingly oblate and increasingly soft. At N = 60 a transition to a strongly deformed rigid prolate shape occurs but prior to this, although the nuclear deformation is increasing with N, a proportionate increase in softness is also observed.

Spectroscopy of Rn, Ra and Th isotopes using multi-nucleon transfer reactions

1999

Abstract High-spin spectroscopy of Rn, Ra and Th isotopes has been performed. The nuclei have been populated using multi-nucleon transfer reactions involving a 232 Th target and a 136 Xe projectile. This type of reaction offers the only mechanism for populating high-spin states in many of these nuclei. Interleaving bands with opposite parities have been observed to high spin ( ∼28 h ) in 218,220,222 Rn, 222,224,226,228 Ra and 228,230,234 Th. A systematic study of the rotational alignment properties of octupole bands in radon, radium and thorium isotopes reveals information concerning the role of the octupole phonon and the onset of stable octupole deformation with increasing rotational freq…

g factors of $^{31,32,33}$Al: Indication for intruder configurations in the $^{33}$Al ground state

2006

Abstract The g factors of 31,32,33 Al have been measured using the β -nuclear magnetic resonance ( β -NMR) technique on spin-polarized beams produced in the fragmentation of a 36 S (77.5 MeV/u) beam on a 9 Be target. Nearly pure beams of Al ( Z = 13 ) isotopes were selected with the high-resolution fragment separator LISE at GANIL. An asymmetry as high as 6% has been observed in the β -NMR curve for 32 Al implanted in a Si single crystal. The magnetic moment of the N = 20 nucleus 33 Al is obtained for the first time: μ ( Al 33 , I π = 5 / 2 + ) = 4.088 ( 5 ) μ N , while those of 31,32 Al are obtained with improved accuracy: μ ( Al 31 , I π = 5 / 2 + ) = 3.830 ( 5 ) μ N and μ ( Al 32 , I π =…

La diplomatie humanitaire ou l’impact du numérique sur la mobilisation

2018

State or sovereign nation diplomacy, which had long been an arena reserved for politicians, has never stopped evolving and changing. New actors, including non-state actors, have emerged on the scene. Further, modern means and methods of communication have played a role in revolutionizing diplomatic activity. In this context of internationalization and globalization, something completely novel has grown up in this field: non-governmental humanitarian diplomacy 2.0. The initiatives undertaken by these non-state organizations and their proven success demonstrate that new practices, new modes of communication (especially via the Internet), and new forms of discourse are being constructed. The h…

UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) in neuro-olfactory tissues: expression, regulation, and function.

2010

International audience; This work aims to review uridine diphosphate (UDP)-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) expression and activities along different neuronal structures involved in the common physiological process of olfaction: olfactory epithelium, olfactory bulb, and olfactory cortex. For the first time, using high-throughput in situ hybridization data generated by the Allen Brain Atlas (ABA), we present quantitative analysis of spatial distribution of UGT genes in the mouse brain. The olfactory area is a central nervous system site with the highest expression of UGTs, including UGT isoforms not previously identified in the brain. Since there is evidence of the transfer of xenobiotics to th…

Natural History of Malignant Bone Disease in Gastric Cancer: Final Results of a Multicenter Bone Metastasis Survey

2013

BackgroundBone metastasis represents an increasing clinical problem in advanced gastric cancer (GC) as disease-related survival improves. In literature, few data on the natural history of bone disease in GC are available.Patients and methodsData on clinicopathology, skeletal outcomes, skeletal-related events (SREs), and bone-directed therapies for 208 deceased GC patients with evidence of bone metastasis were statistically analyzed.ResultsMedian time to bone metastasis was 8 months (CI 95%, 6.125-9.875 months) considering all included patients. Median number of SREs/patient was one. Less than half of the patients (31%) experienced at least one and only 4 and 2% experienced at least two and …
