"co-NLSP upper limit on cross section" of "Search for displaced leptons in $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV $pp$ collisions with the ATLAS detector"
2021
Upper limits on observed signal cross section, $\sigma_\text{obs}^\text{95}$, where all slepton flavors are mass degenerate (co-NLSP).
"Observed LH stau limits" of "Search for displaced leptons in $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV $pp$ collisions with the ATLAS detector"
2021
Observed 95% CL exclusion sensitivity. The limit is displayed in the lifetime vs. $m(\tilde{\tau}_L)$ plane, where $\tilde{\tau}_L$ is the pure-state super-partner of the left-handed $\tau$. Purple denotes the region excluded by LEP. This result does not present signficant sensitivity to the pure-state superpartner of the right-handed $\tau$.
"Expected stau limits" of "Search for displaced leptons in $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV $pp$ collisions with the ATLAS detector"
2021
Expected 95% CL exclusion sensitivity. The limit is displayed in the lifetime vs. $m(\tilde{\tau})$ plane. Staus, $\tilde{\tau}_{1,2}$ are the mixed states of the superpartners of the left- and right-handed $\tau$ leptons, with mixing angle $\sin(\theta_{\tilde\tau})=0.95$, which are assumed to be mass degenerate.
"smuon upper limit on cross section" of "Search for displaced leptons in $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV $pp$ collisions with the ATLAS detector"
2021
Upper limits on observed signal cross section, $\sigma_\text{obs}^\text{95}$, for the smuon signal model. Smuon ($\tilde{\mu}_{L, R}$) refers to the scalar superpartners of left- and right-handed muons.
Cognitive performance and emotion are indifferent to ambient color
2017
Folklore has it that ambient color has the power to relax or arouse the observer and enhance performance when executing cognitive tasks. We picked a number of commercially available colors that allegedly have the power to alter cognitive performance and the emotional state, and exposed subjects to them while solving a battery of cognitive tasks. The colors were “Cool Down Pink”, which is said to produce relaxing effects and reduce effort, “Energy Red”, allegedly enhancing performance via increased arousal, “Relaxing Blue”, which is said to enhance attention and concentration, as well as white as a control. In a between-subjects design, a total of 170 high school students carried out five ta…
Network Physiology of Cortico–Muscular Interactions
2020
Skeletal muscle activity is continuously modulated across physiologic states to provide coordination, flexibility and responsiveness to body tasks and external inputs. Despite the central role the muscular system plays in facilitating vital body functions, the network of brain-muscle interactions required to control hundreds of muscles and synchronize their activation in relation to distinct physiologic states has not been investigated. Recent approaches have focused on general associations between individual brain rhythms and muscle activation during movement tasks. However, the specific forms of coupling, the functional network of cortico-muscular coordination, and how network structure a…
Joint Resource Allocation and UAV Scheduling With Ground Radio Station Sleeping
2021
Applications of Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have advanced rapidly in recent years. The UAVs are used for a variety of applications, including surveillance, disaster management, precision agriculture, weather forecasting, etc. In near future, the growing number of UAV applications would necessitate densification of UAV infrastructure (ground radio station (GRS) and ground control station (GCS)) at the expense of increased energy consumption for UAV communications. Maximizing the energy efficiency of this UAV infrastructure is important. Motivated by this, we propose joint resource allocation and UAV scheduling with GRS sleeping (GRSS). Further, we propose the use of coordinated multi-poi…
Age-Related Changes in Predictive Capacity Versus Internal Model Adaptability: Electrophysiological Evidence that Individual Differences Outweigh Eff…
2015
Hierarchical predictive coding has been identified as a possible unifying principle of brain function, and recent work in cognitive neuroscience has examined how it may be affected by age related changes. Using language comprehension as a test case, the present study aimed to dissociate age-related changes in prediction generation versus internal model adaptation following a prediction error. Event related brain potentials (ERPs) were measured in a group of older adults (60-81 years; n = 40) as they read sentences of the form "The opposite of black is white/yellow/nice." Replicating previous work in young adults, results showed a target related P300 for the expected antonym ("white"; an eff…
Association between socioeconomic factors and sleep quality in an urban population-based sample in Germany.
2013
BACKGROUND: Good sleep quality is essential for recovery. The risk factors of sleep disorders have been extensively investigated, but there is sparse information on the association of socioeconomic factors with a person's sleep quality. The aim of the present analysis is to investigate this association, taking particularly the effect of health confounders into consideration.METHODS: The data were extracted from the cross-sectional QUEBEB Study. In total, the study sample consisted of 3281 participants (1817 women and 1464 men, aged 16-72 years). Here socioeconomic status (SES) was collected from the baseline survey taken in 2004. Sleep quality for the same participants was measured with in-…
Genotype patterns at CLU, CR1, PICALM and APOE, cognition and Mediterranean diet: the PREDIMED-NAVARRA trial.
2014
The traditional Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) has shown beneficial effects on cognitive decline. Nevertheless, diet–gene interactions have been poorly evaluated. We aimed to investigate diet–gene interaction in the PREDIMED-NAVARRA randomized trial. A total of 522 participants (67 ± 6 years at baseline) enrolled in the PREDIMED-NAVARRA trial were randomly allocated to one of three diets: two MedDiets (supplemented with either extra-virgin olive oil or nuts) or a low-fat diet. They were evaluated with the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and the Clock Drawing Test (CDT) after 6.5 years of intervention. Subjects were genotyped for CR1-rs3818361, CLU-rs11136000, PICALM-rs3851179 and Apolipo…
