Agroeca montana Hayashi
Agroeca montana Hayashi, 1986 ( Figs. 1 - 4 ) Agroeca montana Hayashi, 1986, Proc. Japn. Soc. syst. Zool., 33: 24, figs. 1 - 10. Notes. This species was described by the author. He collected many specimens from the forest near the southeastern foot of Mt. Akagi. It may be possible that the female of A. coreana described by Namkung ( 1989 ) corresponds to that of A. montana.Published as part of Hayashi, Toshi, 1992, Three Species of the Genus Agroeca (Araneae: Clubionidae) from Japan, Including a New Species, pp. 133-137 in Acta Arachnologica 41 (2) on page 134, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.84867

The Percussion Music of Toshi Ichiyanagi: A Performance Guide of Select Works from 1984-2002
abstract: This document examines select percussion works of Toshi Ichiyanagi (b. 1933), in order to create a resource that brings exposure and sparks interest in his percussion music. Ichiyanagi has long been one of Japan’s leading composers. However, despite having a successful career since the 1960s, he is not well-known in the United States. Furthermore, his close associations with celebrated American avant-garde composers and performers like John Cage, David Tudor, and La Monte Young, make Ichiyanagi’s virtual obscurity in the United States even more striking. Particularly, for a field birthed in the avant-garde, it is surprising that many of his percussion compositions avoid mainstream recognition.
For the study, the author prepared and performed a recital of the five works that are discussed: Wind Trace (1984), Trio Interlink (1990), Rhythm Gradation (1993), Perspectives II (1996), and Ballade (2002). The document is a performance guide that also provides background information on each piece. The guide discusses technical and interpretative issues uncovered through firsthand preparation and performance, and provides suggestions to solve them. At the conclusion, the author draws connections between these pieces, to highlight similarities that will be helpful to consider when preparing performances of any of his works involving percussion. Finally, an exhaustive catalog of known Ichiyanagi percussion works is provided as a resource for further performance and research.
Ichiyanagi has been writing for percussion since the 1970s. His catalog includes solos, chamber pieces, ensemble pieces, mixed-chamber pieces, and concerti. With recent compositions like Marimba Scenery (2011), Concerto for marimba and orchestra (2012), and the duo Two Dimensions (2012), Ichiyanagi continues to write for percussion. Virtuosi such as Sumire Yoshihara, Atsushi Sugahara, Momoko Kamiya, and Mutsuko Taneya have commissioned and premiered works by the composer. These pieces are on par with the challenging repertoire that has dominated percussion literature since the mid-twentieth century. Nonetheless, the author has found no existing document that is fully devoted to Ichiyanagi’s percussion work.Dissertation/ThesisDoctoral Dissertation Music 201

ATLAS Searches for VV/V+gamma Resonances
Many extensions to the Standard Model predicts new particles decaying into two bosons (WW, WZ, ZZ, Zgamma) making these important signatures in the search for new physics. Searches for such diboson resonances have been performed in final states with different numbers of leptons, photons and jets where new jet substructure techniques to disentangle the hadronic decay products in highly boosted configuration are being used. This talk summarizes ATLAS searches for diboson resonances with LHC Run 2 data collected in 2015 and 2016

Standard Model results from ATLAS
We will provide a status report on LHC and ATALS experiment, and show recent results in the Standard Model measurements with 2010 and 2011 data
Run 1 legacy performance: Jet/ETMiss/Tau
The run 1 legacy performance of jet, missing transverse energy and tau reconstruction in the ATLAS and CMS experiments will be described, as well as the associated systematic uncertainties. The differences of performances between the two experiments will be enlightened. (Talk to be given at Physics at the LHC and Beyond, Quy-Nhon, Vietnam, August 10-17, 2014
Search for the Decay K0L → π0νν
This thesis describes the results of a search for the decay KL0 →π0νν performed by the E391a experiment at KEK 12 GeV Proton Synchrotron. We analyzed full data taken in the second run period in 2005. A blind analysis technique was employed, and we established the background level estimation before examining the candidate events in the signal region. No events were observed with the expected background of 0.42 ± 0.14, and we set an upper limit of 6.7 × 10−8 at the 90% confidence level, which represents the improvement by a factor of 3.1 over the past limit
Searches for GMSB with higgsino next-to-lightest SUSY particles
In gauge-mediated supersymmetry breaking (GMSB) scenarios, the lightest SUSY particles is a nearly massless gravitino. Searches for GMSB SUSY are presented in which the next-to-lighest SUSY particles are the higgsinos, which decay to a Higgs or Z boson and the gravitino, leading to final states with missing transverse energy and ZZ, Zh, or hh boson pairs
