    Measurement of the Bc +meson lifetime using Bc +→J/ψμ+νμX decays

    No full text
    The lifetime of the B+ c meson is measured using semileptonic decays having a J/ψ meson and a muon in the final state. The data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2 fb-1, are collected by the LHCb detector in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV. The measured lifetime is τ = 509 ± 8 ± 12 fs, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic

    <p><a href="https://apalania.shinyapps.io/BC-Predict">BC-Predict</a> has been developed to support the characterization of heterogeneity in breast cancers (please see the citation). This repository is a subset of the web-server capabilities targeted at the histological subtyping problem (ductal vs lobular), and provides a refined interface to support further progress in this research. The source code, models and sample datasets are included in this release. Citation: Muthamilselvan S, Palaniappan A.
