    No full text
    We present a measurement of the mass difference m(D-s(+))-m(D+), where both the D-s(+) and D+ are reconstructed in the phipi(+) decay channel. This measurement uses 11.6 pb(-1) of data collected by CDF II using the new displaced-track trigger. The mass difference is found to be m(D-s(+))-m(D+)=99.41+/-0.38(stat)+/-0.21(syst) MeV/c(2)

    Precision measurement of D meson mass differences

    No full text
    Using three- and four-body decays of D mesons produced in semileptonic b-hadron decays, precision measurements of D meson mass differences are made together with a measurement of the D 0 mass. The measurements are based on a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb−1 collected in pp collisions at 7 TeV. Using the decay D 0 → K + K − K − π +, the D 0 mass is measured to be M(D0)=1864.75±0.15(stat)±0.11(syst)MeV/c2. The mass differences M(D+)−M(D0)=4.76±0.12(stat)±0.07(syst)MeV/c2,M(Ds)−M(D+)=98.68±0.03(stat)±0.04(syst)MeV/c2 are measured using the D 0 → K + K − π + π − and D+(s)→K+K−π+ mode

    A study of D+K0S and D0K+ final states is performed in a sample of 1.0 fb−1 of pp collision data collected at a centre-of-mass energy of s√=7 TeV with the LHCb detector. We confirm the existence of the D∗s1(2700)+ and D∗sJ(2860)+ excited states and measure their masses and widths to be m(D∗s1(2700)+) = 2709.2±1.9(stat)±4.5(syst) MeV/c2, Γ(D∗s1(2700)+) = 115.8±7.3(stat)±12.1(syst) MeV/c2, m(D∗sJ(2860)+) = 2866.1±1.0(stat)±6.3(syst) MeV/c2, Γ(D∗sJ(2860)+) = 69.9±3.2(stat)±6.6(syst) MeV/c2

    Search for the decay Bs0→D*∓π±

    No full text
    A search for the decay Bs0→D*∓π± is presented using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0  fb-1 of pp collisions collected by LHCb. This decay is expected to be mediated by a W-exchange diagram, with little contribution from rescattering processes, and therefore a measurement of the branching fraction will help us to understand the mechanism behind related decays such as Bs0→π+π- and Bs0→DD̅ . Systematic uncertainties are minimized by using B0→D*∓π± as a normalization channel. We find no evidence for a signal, and set an upper limit on the branching fraction of B(Bs0→D*∓π±)<6.1(7.8)×10-6 at 90% (95%) confidence level

    A 2 h periodic variation in the low-mass X-ray binary Ser X-1

    No full text
    Spectroscopy of the low-mass X-ray binary Ser X-1 using the Gran Telescopio Canarias have revealed a ?2 h periodic variability that is present in the three strongest emission lines. We tentatively interpret this variability as due to orbital motion, making it the first indication of the orbital period of Ser X-1. Together with the fact that the emission lines are remarkably narrow, but still resolved, we show that a main-sequence K dwarf together with a canonical 1.4 M? neutron star gives a good description of the system. In this scenario, the most likely place for the emission lines to arise is the accretion disc, instead of a localized region in the binary (such as the irradiated surface or the stream-impact point), and their narrowness is due instead to the low inclination (?10°) of Ser X-1

    Identification of QTL for resistance to plum pox virus starins M and D in Lito and Harcot apricot cultivar

    No full text
    Sharka is a severe apricot viral disease caused by the plum pox virus (PPV) and is responsible for large crop losses in many countries. Among the known PPV strains, both PPV-D (Dideron) and PPV-M (Marcus) are virulent in apricot, the latter being the most threatening. An F1 apricot progeny derived from Lito, described in the literature as resistant, crossed to the susceptible selection BO81604311 (San Castrese 9 Reale di Imola) was used to study the genetic control of resistance to PPV. A population of 118 individuals was phenotyped by inoculating both PPV-D and PPV-M strains in replicated seedlings and scored for 3 years. An additional set of 231 seedlings from the same cross was also phenotyped for 2 years. SSRbased linkage maps were used for quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis. A major QTL of resistance to both PPV-M and PPV-D strains was found in the top half of the Lito linkage group 1, where a QTL was previously described in Stark Earli-Orange, the donor of Lito resistance. The LOD score was considerably enhanced when the recovery of plants from infection was taken into account. The results obtained in Lito were compared with those observed in a second apricot cross progeny (Harcot 9 Reale di Imola) in which QTL of resistance to sharka were also mapped in the same linkage group 1 for both PPV strains. Several models of resistance to sharka disease are discussed considering the segregation frequencies, the QTL alignment in the two maps and the informatio
