Environmental indicators for the urban environment : a literature review
No full textA vast body of literature exists on the genesis and evolution of environmental indicators of all varieties. This document attempts to track the somewhat complicated progress of urban environmental indicators, where they are in usage and to what avail. It also emphasises the search to narrow down the range of 'ideal' indicators. The literature suggests that as experience and practice with indicators grows both in Ireland and world-wide the key set of urban environmental indicators can help policy makers and the public track sustainability issues more effectively. Indicators thus have a valuable role to play in the future of sustainable planning for urban areas.European Regional Development Fund through the Operational Programme for Environmental Services 1994-199

Study of the energy dependence of the underlying event in proton-antiproton collisions. Physical Review D - Particles, Fields, Gravitation and Cosmology, 92(9). doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.92.092009We study charged particle production (pT>0.5 GeV/c, |?|<0.8) in proton-antiproton collisions at total center-of-mass energies s=300 GeV, 900 GeV, and 1.96 TeV. We use the direction of the charged particle with the largest transverse momentum in each event to define three regions of ?-? space: "toward", "away", and "transverse." The average number and the average scalar pT sum of charged particles in the transverse region are sensitive to the modeling of the "underlying event." The transverse region is divided into a MAX and MIN transverse region, which helps separate the "hard component" (initial and final-state radiation) from the "beam-beam remnant" and multiple parton interaction components of the scattering. The center-of-mass energy dependence of the various components of the event is studied in detail. The data presented here can be used to constrain and improve QCD Monte Carlo models, resulting in more precise predictions at the LHC energies of 13 and 14 TeV. © 2015 American Physical Society.Additional Authors: Azfar, F.;Badgett, W.;Bae, T.;Barbaro-Galtieri, A.;Barnes, V.

Future orientation and planning in forestry: a comparison of forest managers' planning horizons in Germany and the Netherlands
No full textLong range (or strategic) planning is an important tool for forest management to deal with the complex and unpredictable future. However, it is the ability to make meaningful predictions about the rapidly changing future that is questioned. What appears to be particularly neglected is the question of the length of time horizons and the limits (if any) to these horizons, despite being considered one of the most critical factors in strategic planning. As the future creation of values lies within individual responsibility, this research empirically explored the limits (if any) of individual foresters¿ time horizons. To draw comparisons between countries with different traditions in forest management planning, data were collected through telephone surveys of forest managers in the state/national forest services of the Netherlands and Germany. In order to minimize other cultural differences, the research in Germany concentrated on the federal state of Nordrhein-Westfalen, which has considerable similarities with the Netherlands, e.g. in topography, forest types and forest functions. The results show that, in practice, 15 years appears to be the most distant horizon that foresters can identify with. This is in sharp contrast to the time horizons spanning decades and even generations that are always said to exist in forestry. The ¿doctrine of the long run¿¿the faith in the capacity of foresters to overcome the barriers of the uncertain future and look ahead and plan for long-range goals¿which in many countries still underlies traditional forest management, can therefore be rejected
Measurement of the production and differential cross sections of W+W- bosons in association with jets in pp¯ collisions at ?s = 1.96TeV

Measurement of the production and differential cross sections of W+W- bosons in association with jets in pp¯ collisions at ?s = 1.96TeV. Physical Review D - Particles, Fields, Gravitation and Cosmology, 91(11). doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.91.111101We present a measurement of the W-boson-pair production cross section in pp¯ collisions at 1.96 TeV center-of-mass energy and the first measurement of the differential cross section as a function of jet multiplicity and leading-jet energy. The W+W- cross section is measured in the final state comprising two charged leptons and neutrinos, where either charged lepton can be an electron or a muon. Using data collected by the CDF experiment corresponding to 9.7fb-1 of integrated luminosity, a total of 3027 collision events consistent with W+W- production are observed with an estimated background contribution of 1790 ± 190 events. The measured total cross section is ?(pp¯ ? W+W-)= 14.0 ± 0.6 (stat)-1.0+1.2 (syst) ± 0.8 (lumi) pb, consistent with the standard model prediction. © 2015; American Physical Society.

Constraints on Models of the Higgs Boson with Exotic Spin and Parity using Decays to Bottom-Antibottom Quarks in the Full CDF Data Set

Constraints on Models of the Higgs Boson with Exotic Spin and Parity using Decays to Bottom-Antibottom Quarks in the Full CDF Data Set. Physical Review Letters, 114(14), 9. doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.114.141802A search for particles with the same mass and couplings as those of the standard model Higgs boson but different spin and parity quantum numbers is presented. We test two specific alternative Higgs boson hypotheses: a pseudoscalar Higgs boson with spin-parity J(P) = 0(-) and a gravitonlike Higgs boson with J(P) = 2(+), assuming for both a mass of 125 GeV/c(2). We search for these exotic states produced in association with a vector boson and decaying into a bottom-antibottom quark pair. The vector boson is reconstructed through its decay into an electron or muon pair, or an electron or muon and a neutrino, or it is inferred from an imbalance in total transverse momentum. We use expected kinematic differences between events containing exotic Higgs bosons and those containing standard model Higgs bosons. The data were collected by the CDF experiment at the Tevatron proton-antiproton collider, operating at a center-of-mass energy of root s = 1.96 TeV, and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 9.45 fb(-1). We exclude deviations from the predictions of the standard model with a Higgs boson of mass 125 GeV/c(2) at the level of 5 standard deviations, assuming signal strengths for exotic boson production equal to the prediction for the standard model Higgs boson, and set upper limits of approximately 30% relative to the standard model rate on the possible rate of production of each exotic state.Additional Authors: Badgett, W.;Bae, T.;Barbaro-Galtieri, A.;Barnes, V.

Simulating urban encroachment upon Natura2000 sites using the MOLAND model : supporting appropriate assessment
No full textThe urban fabric of the Greater Dublin Area (GDA) has expanded rapidly over the past 20 years. This has lead to a decrease in environmental quality throughout the region and disturbance of protected areas. In an effort to guide development toward a more sustainable path in the region the “Strategic Planning Guidelines for the Greater Dublin Area” were introduced in 1999. These were updated in 2004 as the “Regional Planning Guidelines: Greater Dublin Area 2004-2016” and are currently in the process of another review to become the “Regional Planning Guidelines: Greater Dublin Area 2010-2022”. As part of the review an Appropriate Assessment was undertaken to evaluate the effect of
several potential settlement patterns on the region’s protected areas. The MOLAND model was used to simulate four scenarios of possible future settlement patterns for the GDA. These four scenarios were then evaluated in terms of the impact of development on protected areas within the region.Other funderEnvironmental Protection Agencyti.kpw6/10/1
Measurement of the mass difference m(B-0)-m(B+)
No full textUsing 230 x 10(6) B (B) over bar events recorded with the BABAR detector at the e(+)e(-) storage rings PEP-II, we reconstruct approximately 4100 B-0 -> J/psi K+pi(-) and 9930 B+ -> J/psi K+ decays with J/psi -> mu(+)mu(-) and e(+)e(-). From the measured B-momentum distributions in the e(+)e(-) rest frame, we determine the mass difference m(B-0) - m(B+) = (+0.33 +/- 0.05 +/- 0.03) MeV/c(2)
