K-theory for group C*-algebras
These notes are based on a lecture course given by the first author in the Sedano Winter School on K-theory held in Sedano, Spain, on January 22-27th of 2007. They aim at introducing K-theory of C*-algebras, equivariant K-homology and KK-theory in the context of the Baum-Connes conjectur

Effect of magnification and field of view on reading speed using a CCTV
Reading speeds were measured in 18 subjects with normal vision and 10 with low vision for each of 20 experimental conditions with different magnifications and field sizes on the Closed Circuit Television System (CCTV). There was a significant difference between the results for the two groups of subjects. These results suggested that in low-vision patients with faster reading speeds, minimum magnification for maximum field size on the CCTV would be valid advice. For low-vision patients who read more slowly, reading speed may improve at higher magnifications despite reduced field size
Infrared matrix isolation study of acetone and methanol in solid argon
The infrared absorption spectra of acetone and methanol mixtures have been investigated in a solid argon matrix at 9 K. A number of intramolecular complex bands were observed both in the acetone and methanol fundamental regions. From the concentration dependence of the infrared spectral pattern, acetone and methanol seemed to form a 1:1 binary complex. Noticeable red-shifts of the C=O stretching mode of acetone as well as the O-H stretching mode of methanol suggest that the two molecules are bound mainly through a H-bond between the carbonyl oxygen and the hydroxyl hydrogen atoms. A relatively weaker H-bonded interaction appeared also to act between the oxygen atom of methanol and a hydrogen atom of acetone. This view was found to be consistent with ab initio SCF, MP2, and DFT level computations. The most stable structure calculated was found to possess those two kinds of H-bonds, assuming a planar six-membered ring-like structure
Search for eta(c) decays into pi pi and K(K)over-bar
Using 58 million J/psi) events taken with the BESII detector, a search for eta(c) CP violating decays into pi pi and K (K) over bar has been performed. No clear 77, signal is observed, and upper limits for B(eta(c) -> pi pi) and B(eta(c) -> K (K) over bar) are given at the 90% confidence level, B(J/psi -> gamma eta(c)) center dot B(eta(c) -> pi(+)pi(-)) < 1.1 x 10(-5), B(J/psi -> gamma eta(c)) center dot B(eta(c) -> pi(0)pi(0)) < 0.71 x 10(-5), B(J/psi -> gamma(eta c)) center dot B(eta(c) -> K+K-) < 0.96 x 10(-5), and B(J/psi -> gamma eta(c)) center dot B(eta(c) (KSKS0)-K-0) < 0.53 x 10(-5).Physics, Particles & FieldsSCI(E)1ARTICLE2337-3414
The Promises and Pitfalls of Taxing Carbon = Las Promesas y los Problemas de Gravar el Carbono
Carbon taxes are an important part of the policy toolbox for addressing climate change. Some economists, like William Nordhaus, have gone so far as to claim that “raising the price of carbon is a necessary and sufficient step for tackling global warming” (Nordhaus 2008, p. 22). Others have expressed skepticism about the efficacy of carbon taxes, at least as they have been configured so far (Green, 2021). Nevertheless, there is broad agreement—especially amongst economists—that carbon taxes are a critical policy instrument for disincentivizing unsustainable behavior and making green alternatives more attractive (Mintz-Woo, 2022; Mintz-Woo, 2024)
Measurement of the ratio of branching fractions B(B0→K∗0γ )/B(B0s→φγ ) and the directCP asymmetry inB 0→K∗0γ
The ratio of branching fractions of the radiative B decays B0→K⁎0γ and B0s→ϕγ has been measured using an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb−1 of pp collision data collected by the LHCb experiment at a centre-of-mass energy of s√=7TeV. The value obtained is
B(B0→K⁎0γ)B(B0s→ϕγ)=1.23±0.06(stat.)±0.04(syst.)±0.10(fs/fd),
where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is the experimental systematic uncertainty and the third is associated with the ratio of fragmentation fractions fs/fd. Using the world average value for B(B0→K⁎0γ), the branching fraction B(B0s→ϕγ) is measured to be (3.5±0.4)×10−5.
The direct CP asymmetry in B0→K⁎0γ decays has also been measured with the same data and found to be
ACP(B0→K⁎0γ)=(0.8±1.7(stat.)±0.9(syst.))%.
Both measurements are the most precise to date and are in agreement with the previous experimental results and theoretical expectations
