    La ganadería es una actividad económica importante en zonas rurales, aunque en años recientes ha presentado cambios importantes, debido a ajustes socioeconómicos. Uno de estos cambios es criar ganado para cumplir dos metas de producción en lugar de una. El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar los cambios en unidades de producción (UP) con ganado doble propósito (DP) en el sur del Estado de México. Mediante seguimientos técnico-económicos, en 2006 se obtuvo información de 50 ganaderos elegidos con muestreo aleatorio. Las variables evaluadas fueron 14 de estructura y manejo (abandono de la actividad ganadera, disponibilidad de mano de obra, alimentación, superficie y tamaño de hato) y 14 económicas obtenidas con encuestas estructuradas. Todos los ganaderos aportaron información confiable para validar los datos que fueron contrastados con los registros en la UP y con informantes clave y estadísticas oficiales para las variables económicas. Las mismas variables se evaluaron en la misma muestra en 2013. El método estadístico usado fue una prueba t de Student para la comparación de valores promedio de las 28 variables entre las fechas. Durante el periodo de siete años 56 % de los ganaderos abandonaron la actividad y la mano de obra disminuyó 42 % (p0.05). La superficie y el tamaño del hato se mantuvo (p0.05). Los cambios en la alimentación y en el ingreso total por vaca y superficie (ha) fueron significativos (p0.05). Las UP DP cambiaron su estructura, el uso de la tierra, la alimentación, el manejo y la gestión de las UP y, por tanto, la organización y orientación de la producción del ganado. La tendencia indica que los cambios en la ganadería del sur del Estado de México continuarán

    Machine learning method for enforcing variable independence in background estimation with LHC data: ABCDisCoTEC

    No full text
    A novel solution is presented for the problem of estimating the backgrounds of a signal search using observed data while simultaneously maximizing the sensitivity of the search to the signal. The ``ABCD method'' provides a reliable framework for background estimation by partitioning events into one signal-enhanced region (A) and three background-enhanced control regions (B, C, and D) via two statistically independent variables. In practice, even slight correlations between the two variables can significantly undermine the method's performance. Thus, choosing appropriate variables by hand can present a formidable challenge, especially when background and signal differ only subtly. To address this issue, the ABCD with distance correlation (ABCDisCo) method was developed to construct two artificial variables from the output scores of a neural network trained to maximize signal-background discrimination while minimizing correlations using the distance correlation measure. However, relying solely on minimizing the distance correlation can yield undesirable characteristics in the resulting distributions, which may compromise the validity of the background prediction obtained using this method. The ABCDisCo training enhanced with closure (ABCDisCoTEC) method is introduced to solve this issue by directly minimizing the nonclosure, expressed as a dedicated differentiable loss term. This extended method is applied to a data set of proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV recorded by the CMS detector at the CERN LHC. Additionally, given the complexity of the minimization problem with constraints on multiple loss terms, the modified differential method of multipliers is applied and shown to greatly improve the stability and robustness of the ABCDisCoTEC method, compared to grid search hyperparameter optimization procedures

    Search for charged lepton flavor violating Z and Z' boson decays in proton-proton collisions at s\sqrt{s} = 13 TeV

    No full text
    A search for flavor violating decays of the Z boson to charged leptons is performed using data from proton-proton collisions at s\sqrt{s} = 13 TeV collected with the CMS detector at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb1^{-1}. Each of the decays Z \to eμμ, Z \to eττ, and Z \toμτμτ is considered. The data are consistent with the backgrounds expected from standard model processes. For the Z \to eμμ channel the observed (expected) 95% confidence level upper limit on the branching fraction is 1.9 (2.0) ×\times 107^{-7}, which is the most stringent direct limit to date on this process; the corresponding limits for the Z \to eττ and Z \to μτμτ channels are 13.8 (11.4) ×\times 106^{-6} and 12.0 (5.3) ×\times 106^{-6}, respectively. Additionally, the eμμ final state is used to search for lepton flavor violating decays of Z' resonances in the mass range from 110 to 500 GeV. No significant excess is observed above the predicted background levels

    Search for heavy pseudoscalar and scalar bosons decaying to a top quark pair in proton-proton collisions at s\sqrt{s} = 13 TeV

    No full text
    A search for pseudoscalar or scalar bosons decaying to a top quark pair (ttˉ\mathrm{t\bar{t}}) in final states with one or two charged leptons is presented. The analyzed proton-proton collision data was recorded at s\sqrt{s} = 13 TeV by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb1^{-1}. The invariant mass mttˉm_\mathrm{t\bar{t}} of the reconstructed ttˉ\mathrm{t\bar{t}} system and variables sensitive to its spin and parity are used to discriminate against the standard model ttˉ\mathrm{t\bar{t}} background. Interference between pseudoscalar or scalar boson production and the standard model ttˉ\mathrm{t\bar{t}} continuum is included, leading to peak-dip structures in the mttˉm_\mathrm{t\bar{t}} distribution. An excess of the data above the background prediction, based on perturbative quantum chromodynamics (QCD) calculations, is observed near the kinematic ttˉ\mathrm{t\bar{t}} production threshold, while good agreement is found for high mttˉm_\mathrm{t\bar{t}}. The data are consistent with the background prediction if the contribution from the production of a color-singlet 1S0[1]{}^1\mathrm{S}_0^{[1]}ttˉ\mathrm{t\bar{t}} quasi-bound state ηtη_\mathrm{t}, predicted by nonrelativistic QCD, is added. Upper limits at 95% confidence level are set on the coupling between the pseudoscalar or scalar bosons and the top quark for boson masses in the range 365-1000 GeV, relative widths between 0.5 and 25%, and two background scenarios with or without ηtη_\mathrm{t} contribution

    First exclusive reconstruction of the B+^{*+}, B0^{*0}, and Bs0^{*0}_\text{s} mesons and precise measurement of their masses

    No full text
    Using proton-proton collision data collected by the CMS experiment at s\sqrt{s} = 13 TeV in 2016-2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 140 fb1^{-1}, the first full reconstruction of the three vector B meson states, B+^{*+}, B0^{*0}, and Bs0^{*0}_\text{s}, is performed. The mass differences between the excited mesons and their corresponding ground states are measured to be m(B+)m(B+)m(\text{B}^{*+})-m(\text{B}^+) = 45.277 ±\pm 0.039 ±\pm 0.027 MeV, m(B0)m(B0)m(\text{B}^{*0})- m(\text{B}^0) = 45.471 ±\pm 0.056 ±\pm 0.028 MeV, and m(Bs0)m(Bs)m(\text{B}^{*0}_\text{s})-m(\text{B}_\text{s}) = 49.407 ±\pm 0.132 ±\pm 0.041 MeV, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. These results improve on the precision of previous measurements by an order of magnitude

    Search for light pseudoscalar bosons, pair-produced in Higgs boson decays in the four-electron final state in proton-proton collisions at s\sqrt{s} = 13 TeV

    No full text
    A search for pairs of light neutral pseudoscalar bosons (A) resulting from the decay of a Higgs boson is performed. The search is conducted using LHC proton-proton collision data at s\sqrt{s} = 13 TeV, collected with the CMS detector in 2016-2018 and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb1^{-1}. The A boson decays into a highly collimated electron-positron pair. A novel multivariate algorithm using tracks and calorimeter information is developed to identify these distinctive signatures, and events are selected with two such merged electron-positron pairs. No significant excess above the standard model background predictions is observed. Upper limits on the branching fraction for H \to AA \to 4e are set at 95% confidence level, for masses between 10 and 100 MeV and proper decay lengths below 100 μμm, reaching branching fraction sensitivities as low as 105^{-5}. This is the first search for Higgs boson decays to four electrons via light pseudoscalars at the LHC. It significantly improves the experimental sensitivity to axion-like particles with masses below 100 MeV
