Probing an axial-vector tetraquark Z(s) via its semileptonic decay Z(s) -> X(4274)(I)over-bar nu(I)
No full textAzizi, Kazem (Dogus Author)The semileptonic decays of the open charm-bottom axial-vector tetraquark Z(s) = [cs][(b) over bar(s) over bar] to X(4274) (l) over bar nu(l) = e, mu, tau are explored by means of the QCD three-point sum rule method. Both Z(s) and X(4274) = [cs][(cs) over bar] are treated as color sextet diquark-antidiquark states. The full width of the decays Z(s) -> X(4274) (l) over bar nu(l) is found. Obtained predictions for Gamma(Z(s) -> X(4274)(l) over bar nu(l)) demonstrate that, as in the case of the conventional hadrons, the semileptonic transitions form a very small part of its full width
The Benefits of Being Economics Professor A (and not Z)
No full textAlphabetic name ordering on multi-authored academic papers, which is the convention in the economics discipline and various other disciplines, is to the advantage of people whose last name initials are placed early in the alphabet. As it turns out, Professor A, who has been a first author more often than Professor Z, will have published more articles and experienced afaster growth rate over the course of her career as a result of reputation and visibility. Moreover, authors know that name ordering matters and indeed take ordering seriously: Several characteristics of an author group composition determine the decision to deviate from the default alphabetic name order to a significant extent.performance measurement, incentives, economists, name ordering
The Worldview and the Author´s (Self)Reflection in Czech Contemporary Historiography
No full textCílem studie je představit možnosti, jak na základě publikovaných autorských textů zkoumat světový názor historiků a historiček, zejména v oboru soudobých dějin, kde lze předpokládat vliv jejich hodnotového horizontu na interpretaci relativně nedávné minulosti. Autor nejprve vymezuje pojetí světového názoru vzhledem ke stanovenému záměru a zdůvodňuje analytické užití tohoto pojmu v historiografickém textu, v daném kontextu se také zamýšlí nad vztahem paměti, dějin a historiografie. Konstatuje, že poměrně málo českých historiků a historiček dosud reflektuje vztah (individuální či kolektivní) paměti a práce dějepisce, zvláště s ohledem na jeho pozici v současné společnosti, která bývá často redukována na roli objektivního „objevitele historické pravdy“. Taková (sebe)reflexe předpokládá přiznání vlivu individuálního světového názoru historika (komplexu názorů a postojů formovaných výchovou, vzděláním, vzpomínkami, generační příslušností a podobně) na jeho vědeckou činnost. Autor studie nabízí dvě možné a vzájemně se doplňující cesty k poznání historikova světového názoru: jednak prostřednictvím vlastních svědectví a prohlášení z jeho osobněji laděných textů a egodokumentů (eseje, rozhovory, vzpomínky, příspěvky na sociálních sítích), jednak analýzou jeho vědeckých textů (časopiseckých studií, knižních monografií, recenzí). Oba přístupy autor dokumentuje na konkrétních příkladech z produkce historiků a historiček českých soudobých dějin. V závěru studie pak nastiňuje cíle a smysl zkoumání historikova světového názoru.The aim of this study is to present the opportunities for research into the worldview of historians, especially historians focused on contemporary history, where it can be assumed that their set of values may influence their interpretation of the rela-tively recent past. The author first defines the notion of worldview and justifies the analytical use of this concept in historiographical texts. He also considers the relationship between memory, history and historiography in the given context. The author states that not many Czech historians have so far reflected on the relationship between (individual and collective) memory and the work of the historian, especially with regard to his or her position in contemporary society, which is often reduced to the role of an objective “discoverer of historical truth”. Such (self)reflection presupposes the acknowledgement of the influence of the historian’s individual worldview (a complex of opinions and attitudes shaped by upbringing, education, memories, generational affiliation and so on) on his or her scholarly activity. The author of the study offers two possible and complementary ways to learn about the historian’s worldview: first, through his or her own testimonies and statements from more personal texts and ego-documents (essays, interviews, memoirs or social me-dia posts), and second, through the analysis of his or her scholarly texts (journal studies, monographs and book reviews). The author demonstrates both approaches with concrete examples of works by historians of Czech contemporary history and concludes by outlining the aims and purpose of examining the historian’s worldview. © 2022, Institute of Contemporary History of the Czech Academy of Sciences.

Large eddy simulations of weakly heated stratocumulus top boudary layer
No full textPerforming Large Eddy Simulations (LES) of marine stratocumulus in the weakly heated boundary layer is an opportunity to evaluate the relative importance of radiative cooling and of a wind shear in cloud top region on cloud structure. It is shown that cooling due to longwave radiation influences the convective circulation in the atmospheric boundary layer and counteracts dilution caused by the wind shear

Lidskii's Theorem Via Nonsmooth Analysis
No full textLidskii's theorem on eigenvalue perturbation is proved via a nonsmooth mean value theorem. 1 Research partially supported by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada. The author thanks the School of Operations Research and Industrial Engineering at Cornell University, where this work was completed. One of the central tools for studying perturbation theory for the eigenvalues of symmetric matrices is Lidskii's theorem. This states that any matrices Z and Y in S n , the Euclidean space of n \Theta n real symmetric matrices (with trace inner product), satisfy (Z + Y ) \Gamma (Z) OE (Y ); (1) where (Z) 2 R n is the column vector of eigenvalues of Z written by multiplicity and in decreasing order. The symbol OE denotes majorization: u OE v for vectors u and v in R n means u 2 conv fPv : P 2 P n g; where P n is the group of n \Theta n permutation matrices and `conv ' denotes convex hull. A standard separation argument (see [6], for example) shows this..
Lyman break galaxies and the star formation rate of the Universe at z ~ 6
No full textWe determine the space density of UV-luminous starburst galaxies at z≈ 6 using deep HST ACS SDSS-i′ (F775W) and SDSS-z′ (F850LP) and VLT ISAAC J and Ks band imaging of the Chandra Deep Field South. We find eight galaxies and one star with (i′−z′) > 1.5 to a depth of z′AB= 25.6 (an 8σ detection in each of the 3 available ACS epochs). This corresponds to an unobscured star formation rate of ≈15 h−270 M⊙ yr−1 at z= 5.9, equivalent to L* for the Lyman-break population at z= 3–4 (ΩΛ= 0.7, ΩM= 0.3). We are sensitive to star-forming galaxies at 5.6 ≲z≲ 7.0 with an effective comoving volume of ≈1.8 × 105h−370 Mpc3 after accounting for incompleteness at the higher redshifts due to luminosity bias. This volume should encompass the primeval subgalactic-scale fragments of the progenitors of about a thousand L* galaxies at the current epoch. We determine a volume-averaged global star formation rate of (6.7 ± 2.7) × 10−4h70 M⊙ yr−1 Mpc−3 at z∼ 6 from rest-frame UV selected starbursts at the bright end of the luminosity function: this is a lower limit because of dust obscuration and galaxies below our sensitivity limit. This measurement shows that at z∼ 6 the star formation density at the bright end is a factor of ∼6 times less than that determined by Steidel et al. for a comparable sample of UV-selected galaxies at z= 3–4, and so extends our knowledge of the star formation history of the Universe to earlier times than previous work and into the epoch where reionization may have occurred
Domains with a continuous exhaustion in weakly complete surfaces
No full textIn previous works, Tomassini and the authors studied and classified complex surfaces admitting a real-analytic plurisubharmonic exhaustion function; let X be such a surface and D⊆ X a domain admitting a continuous plurisubharmonic exhaustion function: what can be said about the geometry of D? If the exhaustion of D is assumed to be smooth, the second author already answered this question; however, the continuous case is more difficult and requires different methods. In the present paper, we address such question by studying the local maximum sets contained in D and their interplay with the complex geometric structure of X; we conclude that, if D is not a modification of a Stein space, then it shares the same geometric features of X
