    The effect of the impact of comet Shoemaker Levy‐9 on Jupiter's aurorae

    No full text
    We present infrared spectra and images of the jovian aurorae taken at wavelengths sensitive to the H-3(+) molecular ion during the period around the impact of Comet Shoemaker Levy-9. The spectra were obtained using CGS4 on the United Kingdom Infrared Telescope and the images using NSF cam on NASA's Infrared Telescope Facility. Comparison with spectra obtained in May, 1993, shows that while the relative intensities of the northern and southern auroral zones prior to and during impact week (July 16 - 22, 1994) were broadly comparable with those of 1993, a few days after the last collision the northern aurora was considerably enhanced and its southern counterpart somewhat depressed. The north/south auroral ratio was returning to more normal values a week later. The effect of material drifting from the impact sites to the southern auroral zone is discussed in relation to these results

    Evidence for the decay B0→J/ψω and measurement of the relative branching fractions of meson decays to J/ψη and J/ψη′

    First evidence of the B 0 → J / ψ ω decay is found and the B s 0 → J / ψ η and B s 0 → J / ψ η ′ decays are studied using a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb -1 collected by the LHCb experiment in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of sqrt(s) = 7 TeV. The branching fractions of these decays are measured relative to that of the B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0 decay:frac(B (B 0 → J / ψ ω), B (B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0)) = 0.89 ± 0.19 (stat) - 0.13 + 0.07 (syst),frac(B (B s 0 → J / ψ η), B (B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0)) = 14.0 ± 1.2 (stat) - 1.5 + 1.1 (syst) - 1.0 + 1.1 (frac(f d, f s)),frac(B (B s 0 → J / ψ η ′), B (B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0)) = 12.7 ± 1.1 (stat) - 1.3 + 0.5 (syst) - 0.9 + 1.0 (frac(f d, f s)), where the last uncertainty is due to the knowledge of f d / f s, the ratio of b-quark hadronization factors that accounts for the different production rate of B 0 and B s 0 mesons. The ratio of the branching fractions of B s 0 → J / ψ η ′ and B s 0 → J / ψ η decays is measured to befrac(B (B s 0 → J / ψ η ′), B (B s 0 → J / ψ η)) = 0.90 ± 0.09 (stat) - 0.02 + 0.06 (syst)

    Far‐UV emissions from the SL9 impacts with Jupiter

    No full text
    Observations with the International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE) during the impacts of the fragments of comet D/Shoemaker-Levy 9 with Jupiter show far-UV emissions from the impact sites within a similar to 10 min time scale. Positive detections of H-2 Lyman and Werner band (1230-1620 Angstrom) and H-Ly alpha emissions are made for impacts K and S, and marginally for P2. No thermal continuum is observed. The radiated far-UV output was >10(21) ergs. The H-2 spectrum is consistent with electron collisional excitation if significant CH4 absorption is included. Such emissions could result from plasma processes generated by the impacts. Non-thermal excitation by the high altitude entry and explosion shocks may also be relevant. Emissions by Al+ (1671 Angstrom) and C (1657 Angstrom) of cometary origin are tentatively identified

    Measurement of the time-dependent CP asymmetry in B0 -> J/ψ KS0 decays

    No full text
    This Letter reports a measurement of the CP violation observables SJ/ψK0S and CJ/ψK0S in the decay channel B0→J/ψK0S performed with 1.0 fb−1 of pp collisions at s√=7 TeV collected by the LHCb experiment. The fit to the data yields SJ/ψK0S=0.73±0.07(stat)±0.04(syst) and CJ/ψK0S=0.03±0.09(stat)±0.01(syst). Both values are consistent with the current world averages and within expectations from the Standard Model
