Sax Rohmer's Egyptian intoxication
No full textBook synopsis: 2013 marks the 100th anniversary of the first appearance of one of the world's most notorious fictional villains, the fiendish Dr Fu Manchu, """"the Yellow Peril incarnate in one man"""": master criminal, evil scientist and lord of strange deaths. Fu Manchu's creator, Sax Rohmer (Arthur Sarsfield Ward, 1883-1959) was the king of pulp exotica. This groundbreaking collection of essays and appreciations considers the work, contexts and enduring fascination of Rohmer, from fin-de-siecle racial anxieties to Egypt, anarchists, and the occult
Measurement of V0 production ratios in pp collisions at √s=0.9 and 7 TeV
No full textThe Λ/Λ and Λ/K0S production ratios are measured by the LHCb detector from 0.3 nb−1 of pp collisions delivered by the LHC at √s = 0.9 TeV and 1.8 nb−1 at √s = 7 TeV. Both ratios are presented as a function of transverse momentum, pT, and rapidity, y, in the ranges 0.15 < pT < 2.50 GeV/c and 2.0 < y < 4.5. Results at the two energies are in good agreement as a function of rapidity loss, ∆y = ybeam − y, and are consistent with previous measurements. The ratio Λ/Λ, measuring the transport of baryon number from the collision into the detector, is smaller in data than predicted in simulation, particularly at high rapidity. The ratio Λ/K0S, measuring the baryon-to-meson suppression in strange quark hadronisation, is significantly larger than expected
Deformation of the strange superalgebra P(n)
No full textInternational audienceA deformation U_q(tilde-P(n)) = tilde-P_q(n) of the extended non-contragredient (strange) superalgebra of P(n), denoted by tilde-P(n), is proposed. A realization of tilde-P_q(n) in terms of q-bosons and q-fermions is presented. Then a procedure to build up a set of representations of tilde-P_q(n) is briefly discussed. As a by-product, a new realization of SU_q(n) is obtained
Emotional and Adrenocortical Responses of Infants to the Strange Situation: The Differential Function of Emotional Expression
No full textThe aim of the study was to investigate biobehavioural organisation in infants with different qualities of attachment. Quality of attachment (security and disorganisation), emotional expression, and adrenocortical stress reactivity were investigated in a sample of 106 infants observed during Ainsworth’s Strange Situation at the age of 12 months. In addition, behavioural inhibition was assessed from maternal reports. As expected, securely attached infants did not show an adrenocortical response. Regarding the traditionally defined insecurely attached groups, adrenocortical activation during the strange situation was found for the ambivalent group, but not for the avoidant one. Previous ndings of increased adrenocortical activity in disorganised infants could not be replicated. In line with previous ndings, adrenocortical activation was most prominent in insecure infants with high behavioural inhibition indicating the function of a secure attachment relationship as a social buffer against less adaptive temperamental dispositions. Additional analyses indicated that adrenocortical reactivity and behavioural distress were not based on common activation processes. Biobehavioural associations within the different attachment groups suggest that biobehavioural processes in securely attached infants may be different from those in insecurely attached and disorganised groups. Whereas a coping model may be applied to describe the biobehavioural organisation of secure infants, an arousal model explanation may be more appropriate for the other groups

Strange-Quark Contributions to Parity-Violating Asymmetries in the Forward G0 Electron-Proton Scattering Experiment
No full textWe have measured parity-violating asymmetries in elastic electron-proton scattering over the range of momentum transfers 0.12≤Q2≤1.0 GeV2. These asymmetries, arising from interference of the electromagnetic and neutral weak interactions, are sensitive to strange-quark contributions to the currents of the proton. The measurements were made at Jefferson Laboratory using a toroidal spectrometer to detect the recoiling protons from a liquid hydrogen target. The results indicate nonzero, Q2 dependent, strange-quark contributions and provide new information beyond that obtained in previous experiments.</p

Strong decays of strange charmed P-wave mesons
No full textGoldstone boson decays of P-wave Ds** mesons are studied within the framework of heavy hadron chiral perturbation theory. We first analyze the simplest single kaon decays of these strange charmed mesons. We derive a model-independent prediction for the width of Ds2 and use experimental information on Ds1 to constrain the S-wave contribution to D10 decay. Single and double pion decay modes are then discussed and shown to be significantly restricted by isospin conservation. We conclude that the pion channels may offer the best hope for detecting one strange member of an otherwise invisible P-wave flavor multiplet
Production of neutral strange particles in Ar, Xe and Xe collisions at 200 GeV
No full textThe production of neutral strange particles () in Ar, Xe and Xe collisions at 200 GeV is investigated in the NA5 experiment using a streamer chamber at the CERN SPS. Results are presented on inclusive cross sections, average multiplicities, and on rapidity and transverse momentum distributions of neutral strange particles
