Search for the decay mode of new high-mass resonances in collisions at TeV with the ATLAS detector
No full textInternational audienceThis letter presents a search for narrow, high-mass resonances in the final state with the boson decaying into a pair of electrons or muons. The TeV collision data were recorded by the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider and have an integrated luminosity of 140 fb. The data are found to be in agreement with the Standard Model background expectation. Upper limits are set on the resonance production cross section times the decay branching ratio into . For spin-0 resonances produced via gluon-gluon fusion, the observed limits at 95% confidence level vary between 65.5 fb and 0.6 fb, while for spin-2 resonances produced via gluon-gluon fusion (or quark-antiquark initial states) limits vary between 77.4 (76.1) fb and 0.6 (0.5) fb for the mass range from 220 GeV to 3400 GeV
RENATU : un outil d’évaluation du potentiel écologique d’un site industriel ou urbain pour des utilisateurs non spécialisés
No full textInternational audienceThe biodiversity strategy of companies is part of their financial and social performance. Urban, Industrial and Linear Transport Infrastructures (UILTI) integrate green spaces. For these, managers are asking for tools to assess and monitor their biodiversity. RENATU is a potential biodiversity indicator. It is composed of several indices that concern ecosystem features. The more complex the environment, the greater the taxonomic diversity. The complexity of the ecological components, measured by the indices, is indicative of the potential for hosting plant and animal species (insects, arthropods, butterflies, birds, mammals, etc.). Atotal of 96 sites were used to test this indicator. The results demonstrate the homogeneity of the ecological indices. An evaluation by means of a user questionnaire was used to confirm its relevance as a potential biodiversity management tool. Such an indicator is part of the corporate social responsibility strategy. It enhances both financial and social performanceLa stratégie de biodiversité des entreprises fait partie de leur performance financière et sociale. Les infrastructures de transport urbaines, industrielles et linéaires (ITUIL) intègrent des espaces verts. Pour ceux- ci, les gestionnaires sont demandeurs d'outils d'évaluation et de suivi de leur biodiversité. RENATU est un indicateur de biodiversité potentielle. Il est composé de plusieurs indices qui concernent les caractéristiques des écosystèmes. Plus l'environnement est complexe, plus la diversité taxonomique est importante. La complexité des composantes écologiques, mesurée par les indices, est révélatrice du potentiel d'accueil des espèces végétales et animales (insectes, arthropodes, papillons, oiseaux, mammifères etc.). Au total, 96 sites ont été utilisés pour tester cet indicateur. Les résultats démontrent l'homogénéité des indices écologiques. Une évaluation par le biais d'un questionnaire adressé aux utilisateurs a permis de confirmer sa pertinence en tant qu'outil potentiel de gestion de la biodiversité. Un tel indicateur s'inscrit dans la stratégie de responsabilité sociale des entreprises. Il permet d'améliorer les performances financières et sociales

We Are All Treaty People: A Reflection and Research-Based Look at Incorporating Indigenous Content into Saskatchewan High School Arts and STEM Classrooms
Full text linkWithin the Saskatchewan curriculum, one goal of K-12 education is ensuring that students come out of classrooms knowing that they, like all Canadians, are treaty people. This focus is touched on in select curriculum guides and within the Treaty Education Outcomes and Indicators document that has been in use by the Saskatchewan Ministry of Education since 2013. While measures such as these have made the province seem to be ahead of other Canadian provinces in terms of Indigenous education, more needs to be done to ensure that this content is implemented into subject matter throughout the curriculum. The focus of this paper is on implementation methods and examples in high school Arts and STEM classrooms, as research from select organizations and from other Canadian education ministries reveals that Indigenous content can be implemented into the curricular outcomes present within these subjects. The culmination of this research looks into how the implementation of Indigenous content can aid in both the teaching of Canadian Reconciliation and in furthering the use of anti-oppressive education of which Indigenous education is a part
Forbidden Love in Arundhati Roy’s The God of Small Things
Full text linkWhile shared beliefs, standards, and norms can often influence our perception of what is morally right or wrong, it is necessary to question the origin of certain cultural ideals. Arundhati Roy’s The God of Small Things (1997) questions the importance of adhering to the status quo as the novel explores the theme of forbidden love. The use of heterotopic spaces in the book produces variations of the real world where characters can explore their forbidden love interests and challenge societal constraints. These heterotopias are environments that are characteristically \u27other\u27 because they represent ideas which are intense, incompatible, or transforming (Foucault 4). Central characters in Arundhati Roy\u27s The God of Small Things use these spaces to interrogate the complexity of forbidden love and disrupt the status quo
