    Measurement of the ratio of prompt χ c to J / ψ production in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV

    No full text
    The prompt production of charmonium χ c and J / ψ states is studied in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of √s = 7 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider. The χ c and J / ψ mesons are identified through their decays χ c → J / ψ γ and J / ψ → μ + μ - using 36 pb - 1 of data collected by the LHCb detector in 2010. The ratio of the prompt production cross-sections for χ c and J / ψ, σ (χ c → J / ψ γ) / σ (J / ψ), is determined as a function of the J / ψ transverse momentum in the range 2 < p T J / ψ < 15 GeV / c. The results are in excellent agreement with next-to-leading order non-relativistic expectations and show a significant discrepancy compared with the colour singlet model prediction at leading order, especially in the low p T J / ψ region

    Er:Yb:glass Coherent Laser Radar

    No full text
    Q-switched Er:glass lasers that are injection seeded by a cw master laser are useful for eye-safe (1.535μm)coherent laser radars (CLR). Previously, we used an injection seeded, Q-switched, lamp-pumped Er:glass laser, obtaining velocity measurements of a hard target with a single shot resolution of about 1ms–1 [1]. The transmitted pulse energy was only about 1mJ however, which severely restricted the range of the radar. We shall describe the development and performance of a new, Q-switched, diode-pumped Er:Yb:glass slab laser that can produce gain-switched, transform limited, TEM00 pulses. The spectral content of the laser output, suitable for CLR will be discussed. [1] A.McGrath, et al.: Injection-seeded, single frequency, Q-switched Er:glass laser for remote sensing, Appl.

    On the Diophantine equation Unbm=cU_n-b^m = c

    No full text
    Let (Un)nN(U_n)_{n\in \mathbb{N}} be a fixed linear recurrence sequence defined over the integers (with some technical restrictions). We prove that there exist effectively computable constants BB and N0N_0 such that for any b,cZb,c\in \mathbb{Z} with b>Bb> B the equation Unbm=cU_n - b^m = c has at most two distinct solutions (n,m)N2(n,m)\in \mathbb{N}^2 with nN0n\geq N_0 and m1m\geq 1. Moreover, we apply our result to the special case of Tribonacci numbers given by T1=T2=1T_1= T_2=1, T3=2T_3=2 and Tn=Tn1+Tn2+Tn3T_{n}=T_{n-1}+T_{n-2}+T_{n-3} for n4n\geq 4. By means of the LLL-algorithm and continued fraction reduction we are able to prove N0=1.11037N_0=1.1\cdot 10^{37} and B=e438B=e^{438}. The corresponding reduction algorithm is implemented in Sage.Comment: 34 page

    On area comparison and rigidity involving the scalar curvature

    No full text
    In this thesis we study the effects of lower bounds for the curvature of a Riemannian manifold M on the geometry and topology of closed, minimal hypersurfaces. We will prove an area comparison theorem for totally geodesic surfaces which is an optimal analogue of the Heintze-Karcher-Maeada Theorem in the context of 3-manifolds with lower bounds on scalar curvature (Theorem 3.8). The optimality of this result will be addressed by explicitly constructing several counterexamples in dimensions n ≥ 4. This area comparison theorem turns out that it provides a unified proof of three splitting and rigidity theorems for 3-manifolds with lower bounds on the scalar curvature that were first proved, independently, by Cai-Galloway, Bray-Brendle- Neves and Nunes (Theorem 4.7 (a)-(c)). In the final part of this thesis we will address some natural higher dimensional generalisations of these splitting and rigidity results and emphasise some connections with the Yamabe problem

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    No full text
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    Malgrange's vanishing theorem for weakly pseudoconcave CR manifolds

    No full text
    The authors prove the following CR version of Malgrange's theorem: Assume MMM is a smooth, non-compact, weakly pseudoconcave CR manifold of type (n,k)(n,k)(n,k) of finite kind. Then the highest M\overline{\partial}_M∂−M cohomology HMp,n(M)H^{p,n}_{\overline{\partial}_M}(M)Hp,n∂−M(M) vanishes for 0pn+k0\le p\le n+k0≤p≤n+k. This generalises a similar result for real analytic CR manifolds by the third author [in Hyperbolic problems and regularity questions, 137--150, Birkhäuser, Basel, 2007; MR2298789 (2008d:32034)]. Furthermore, they prove the following approximation theorem: If MMM is as above and UVMU\subset\subset V \subset\subset MU⊂⊂V⊂⊂M are two open sets such that V\sbs UV∖U has no compact connected component then for 0pn+k0\le p\le n+k0≤p≤n+k the restriction map Zp,n1(V)Zp,n1(U)Z^{p,n-1}(\overline{V})\to Z^{p,n-1}(U)Zp,n−1(V−)→Zp,n−1(U) has dense image, with respect to the \scr C^\inftyC∞ topology on UUU.
