Search for a Standard Model Higgs Boson inWH→ℓvbb¯inpp¯Collisions ats=1.96 TeV
2009
We present a search for a standard model Higgs boson produced in association with a W boson using 2.7 fb(-1) of integrated luminosity of pp collision data taken at square root s = 1.96 TeV. Limits on the Higgs boson production rate are obtained for masses between 100 and 150 GeV/c(2). Through the use of multivariate techniques, the analysis achieves an observed (expected) 95% confidence level upper limit of 5.6 (4.8) times the theoretically expected production cross section for a standard model Higgs boson with a mass of 115 GeV/c(2).
Search for a Fermiophobic and Standard Model Higgs Boson in Diphoton Final States
2011
Made available in DSpace on 2022-04-29T01:13:49Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2011-10-05 National Science Foundation We present a search for the standard model Higgs boson and a fermiophobic Higgs boson in the diphoton final states based on 8.2fb-1 of pp̄ collisions at √s=1.96TeV collected with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. No excess of data above background predictions is observed and upper limits at the 95% C.L. on the cross section multiplied by the branching fraction are set which are the most restrictive to date. A fermiophobic Higgs boson with a mass below 112.9 GeV is excluded at the 95% C.L. © 2011 American Physical Society. Universidad de Bu…
Neutrino anarchy and renormalization group evolution
2015
The observed pattern of neutrino mixing angles is in good agreement with the hypothesis of neutrino anarchy, which posits that Nature has chosen the entries of the leptonic mixing matrix at random. In this paper we investigate how stable this conclusion is under renormalization group effects. Working in the simplest type-I seesaw model and two variants of the inverse seesaw model we study how the statistical distributions of the neutrino mixing parameters evolve between the Grand Unification scale and the electroweak scale. Especially in the inverse seesaw case we find significant distortions: mixing angles tend to be smaller after RG running, and the Dirac CP phase tends to be closer to ze…
Genesi e sviluppo dell'idea di Europa nel pensiero politico italiano
2009
L'Italia nel corso dei secoli ha dato sempre, in dottrina e in prassi, un contributo notevole alla elaborazione di progetti concernenti l'unificazione pacifica dell'Europa e alla loro realizzazione.
How partnerships end in guillemots Uria aalge : chance events, adaptive change, or forced divorce?
2007
Divorce in socially monogamous species can result from different mechanisms, for example, chance events, active desertion of the partner, or the intrusion of a third individual ousting the partner. We compared the predictions associated with such mechanisms with data from common guillemots (Uria aalge) breeding on the Isle of May, Scotland. The data cover the years 1982--2005 and show a yearly divorce rate of 10.2%. In most divorces (86%), one of the original partners moved to another breeding site, whereas the other bird stayed and bred with a new partner. On average, movers had a significantly lower breeding success after divorce, stayers were largely unaffected, whereas the incoming bird…
Born-Infeld gravity and its functional extensions
2014
We investigate the dynamics of a family of functional extensions of the (Eddington-inspired) Born-Infeld gravity theory, constructed with the inverse of the metric and the Ricci tensor. We provide a generic formal solution for the connection and an Einstein-like representation for the metric field equations of this family of theories. For particular cases we consider applications to the early-time cosmology and find that non-singular universes with a cosmic bounce are very generic and robust solutions.
Search for the Standard Model Higgs Boson in theZH→νν¯bb¯Channel in5.2 fb−1ofpp¯Collisions ats=1.96 TeV
2010
A search is performed for the standard model Higgs boson in 5.2 fb-1 of p-pbar collisions at sqrt(s)=1.96 TeV, collected with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The final state considered is a pair of b jets and large missing transverse energy, as expected from p-pbar->ZH->vvbb production. The search is also sensitive to the WH->lvbb channel when the charged lepton is not identified. For a Higgs boson mass of 115 GeV, a limit is set at the 95% C.L. on the cross section multiplied by branching fraction for p-pbar->(Z/W)H and H->bb that is a factor of 3.7 larger than the standard model value, consistent with the factor of 4.6 expected.
TOPOLOGICAL QUANTUM DOUBLE
1994
Following a preceding paper showing how the introduction of a t.v.s. topology on quantum groups led to a remarkable unification and rigidification of the different definitions, we adapt here, in the same way, the definition of quantum double. This topological double is dualizable and reflexive (even for infinite dimensional algebras). In a simple case we show, considering the double as the "zero class" of an extension theory, the uniqueness of the double structure as a quasi-Hopf algebra. A la suite d'un précédent article montrant comment l'introduction d'une topologie d'e.v.t. sur les groupes quantiques permet une unification et une rigidification remarquables des différentes définitions,…

Modal Consequence Relations Extending S4.3: An Application of Projective Unification
2016
We characterize all finitary consequence relations over $\mathbf{S4.3}$ , both syntactically, by exhibiting so-called (admissible) passive rules that extend the given logic, and semantically, by providing suitable strongly adequate classes of algebras. This is achieved by applying an earlier result stating that a modal logic $L$ extending $\mathbf{S4}$ has projective unification if and only if $L$ contains $\mathbf{S4.3}$ . In particular, we show that these consequence relations enjoy the strong finite model property, and are finitely based. In this way, we extend the known results by Bull and Fine, from logics, to consequence relations. We also show that the lattice of consequence relation…
