Some local properties defining $T_0$-groups and related classes of groups

2016

[EN] We call G a Hall_X -group if there exists a normal nilpotent subgroup N of G for which G/N' is an X -group. We call G a T0 -group provided G/\Phi(G) is a T -group, that is, one in which normality is a transitive relation. We present several new local classes of groups which locally define Hall_X -groups and T_0 -groups where X ∈ {T , PT , PST }; the classes PT and PST denote, respectively, the classes of groups in which permutability and S-permutability are transitive relations.

Touristification, Sharing Economies and the New Geography of Urban Conflicts

2018

The aim of this study was to address the highly controversial problem of the increasing touristification of urban centers, analyzing the case of Valencia. The paper begins with a theoretical reflection to disambiguate the term &ldquo

Recommendations for neonatologists and pediatricians working in first level birthing centers on the first communication of genetic disease and malfor…

2021

Abstract Background Genetic diseases are chronic conditions with relevant impact on the lives of patients and their families. In USA and Europe it is estimated a prevalence of 60 million affected subjects, 75% of whom are in developmental age. A significant number of newborns are admitted in the Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICU) for reasons different from prematurity, although the prevalence of those with genetic diseases is unknown. It is, then, common for the neonatologist to start a diagnostic process on suspicion of a genetic disease or malformation syndrome, or to make and communicate these diagnoses. Many surveys showed that the degree of parental satisfaction with the methods of c…

Les exilés et l'enseignement de l'espagnol en France

2006

International audience; Au moment où la France accorde l’asile au demi million d’Espagnols qui fuient Franco, la langue espagnole n’intéressait qu’une minorité restreinte d’élèves. Au début des années cinquante, alors que l’anglais et même l’allemand connaissaient les faveurs accrues de la jeunesse, l’espagnol continuait de végéter au sein d’un système éducatif où rien n’était entrepris pour le rendre plus attractif. Au cours des années qui suivirent, l’arrivée au lycée des enfants des exilés républicains, et d’une façon plus localisée, le souvenir du rôle joué par les républicains-résistants dans la libération des certaines villes du sud, modifièrent sensiblement cette situation. Les desce…

Determination of the $X(3872)$ meson quantum numbers

2013

The quantum numbers of the X(3872) meson are determined to be J(PC) = 1(++) based on angular correlations in B+ -> X(3872)K+ decays, where X(3872) -> pi(+) pi(-) j/psi and J/psi -> pi(+) mu(-). The data correspond to 1.0 fb(-1) of pp collisions collected by the LHCb detector. The only alternative assignment allowed by previous measurements J(PC) = 2(-+) is rejected with a confidence level equivalent to more than 8 Gaussian standard deviations using a likelihood-ratio test in the full angular phase space. This result favors exotic explanations of the X(3872) state.

Search for standard model Higgs bosons produced in association with W bosons.

2007

We report on the results of a search for standard model Higgs bosons produced in association with W bosons from p-pbar collisions at root s = 1.96 TeV. The search uses a data sample corresponding to approximately 1 fb-1 of integrated luminosity. Events consistent with the W to l-nu and H to b-bbar signature are selected by triggering on a high-pT electron or muon candidate and tagging one or two of the jet candidates as having originated from b quarks. A neural network filter rejects a fraction of tagged charm and light flavor jets, increasing the b-jet purity in the sample and thereby reducing the background to Higgs boson production. We observe no excess l-nu-b-bbar production beyond the …

Search for diphoton events with large missing transverse energy in 7 TeV proton-proton collisions with the ATLAS detector.

2011

A search for diphoton events with large missing transverse energy is presented. The data were collected with the ATLAS detector in proton-proton collisions at √s=7  TeV at the CERN Large Hadron Collider and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 3.1  pb−1. No excess of such events is observed above the standard model background prediction. In the context of a specific model with one universal extra dimension with compactification radius R and gravity-induced decays, values of 1/R<729  GeV are excluded at 95% C. L., providing the most sensitive limit on this model to date.

Study of Beauty Hadron Decays into Pairs of Charm Hadrons

2014

First observations of the decays Λ[0 over b] → Λ[+ over c]D[− over (s)] are reported using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3  fb[superscript −1] collected at 7 and 8 TeV center-of-mass energies in proton-proton collisions with the LHCb detector. In addition, the most precise measurement of the branching fraction B(B[0 over s] → D[superscript +]D[− over s]) is made and a search is performed for the decays B[0 over (s)] → Λ[+ over c]Λ[− over c]. The results obtained are B(Λ[0 over b] → Λ[+ over c]D[superscript −])/B(Λ[0 over b] → Λ[+ over c]D[− over s]) = 0.042 ± 0.003(stat) ± 0.003(syst), ⎡⎣B(Λ[0 over b] → Λ[+ over c]D[− over s]) over B([¯ over B[superscript 0] → D[superscr…

The beam and detector of the NA62 experiment at CERN

2017

NA62 is a fixed-target experiment at the CERN SPS dedicated to measurements of rare kaon decays. Such measurements, like the branching fraction of the $K^{+} \rightarrow \pi^{+} \nu \bar\nu$ decay, have the potential to bring significant insights into new physics processes when comparison is made with precise theoretical predictions. For this purpose, innovative techniques have been developed, in particular, in the domain of low-mass tracking devices. Detector construction spanned several years from 2009 to 2014. The collaboration started detector commissioning in 2014 and will collect data until the end of 2018. The beam line and detector components are described together with their early …
