fwXmachina example: VBF Higgs vs multijet
No full textThis dataset provides a ROOT file with three trees each with branches of TClonesArray of TLorentzVectors (energies in MeV), describing all the jets in each event. The three trees are
- QCD multijet background generated with p p > j j
- Vector boson fusion Higgs production, with the Higgs decaying to neutrinos (invisible to the detector)
- Vector boson fusion Higgs production, with the Higgs decaying to two pseudoscalar a bosons, each decaying to a b/anti-b pair
All events were produced with Madgraph, decayed with Pythia8, and showered with Delphes. Jets were produced with a minimum pT of at least 15 GeV. The anti-kt algorithm with a radius parameter of R=0.4 and a minimum jet threshold of pT = 20 GeV was used for jet reconstruction in Delphes. Pseudorapidity/phi coordinates were used with eta between -4.9 --> 4.9 and phi between -pi --> pi. Minimum bias pileup with = 50 was applied using the CMS with pileup card in Delphes. The Higgs was given a mass of 125 GeV and the pseudoscalar a boson was given a mass of 50 GeV.
Data was used in https://arxiv.org/abs/2104.03408 to identify VBF-produced jets. That paper contains descriptions of how the data was produced along with a description of how it was used in VBF jet identification

Multiple iterations : mapping the trace
No full textThis paper explores the concept that individual dancers leave traces in a choreographer’s body of work and similarly, that dancers carry forward residue of embodied choreographies into other working processes. This presentation will be grounded in a study of the multiple iterations of a programme of solo works commissioned in 2008 from choreographers John Jasperse, Jodi Melnick, Liz Roche and Rosemary Butcher and danced by the author. This includes an exploration of the development by John Jasperse of themes from his solo into the pieces PURE (2008) and Truth, Revised Histories, Wishful Thinking and Flat Out Lies (2009); an adaptation of the solo Business of the Bloom by Jodi Melnick in 2008 and a further adaptation of Business of the Bloom by this author in 2012. It will map some of the developments that occurred through a number of further performances over five years of the solo Shared Material on Dying by Liz Roche and the working process of the (uncompleted) solo Episodes of Flight by Rosemary Butcher. The purpose is to reflect back on authorship in dance, an art form in which lineages of influence can often be clearly observed. Normally, once a choreographic work is created and performed, it is archived through video recording, notation and/or reviews. The dancer is no longer called upon to represent the dance piece within the archive and thus her/his lived presence and experiential perspective disappears. The author will draw on the different traces still inhabiting her body as pathways towards understanding how choreographic movement circulates beyond this moment of performance. This will include the interrogation of ownership of choreographic movement, as once it becomes integrated in the body of the dancer, who owns the dance? Furthermore, certain dancers, through their individual physical characteristics and moving identities, can deeply influence the formation of choreographic signatures, a proposition that challenges the sole authorship role of the choreographer in dance production. This paper will be delivered in a presentation format that will bleed into movement demonstrations alongside video footage of the works and auto-ethnographic accounts of dancing experience. A further source of knowledge will be drawn from extracts of interviews with other dancers including Sara Rudner, Rebecca Hilton and Catherine Bennett
Roche SFF sequence files for all 16 Oli populations
No full textThese are the SFF files from Roche 454 titanium sequencing of the Oli populations. Populations were barcode indexed using the Roche MIDs, sequenced on the 454 titanium, base-called using the Roche pipeline version 2.53, then split into the 16 separate populations using the MID index. These sff files have been bzip2'ed into one tar archive for easier upload and download
The social efficiency of Tertiary Lifelong Learning. Initial insights from a European Research Project
No full textToday’s working population is going through a noticeable transition: people
are working to a much older age. This is due partly to the acceleration of
the ageing process and partly to policies which delay the age of retirement.
This shift raises a number of questions about how to engage older people in
lifelong learning. This chapter makes some suggestions as to how Tertiary
Lifelong Learning (TLLL) can contribute to the well-being of older learners,
and how European Union universities might therefore respond to the
increasing demands for lifelong learning. We present the project ‘Tertiary
Higher Education for People in Mid-life’ (THEMP), an investigation that analyzed
TLLL provided by universities in seven EU member states. Focusing
on relevant labour market programmes and on the age of the participants,
the project evaluated how these programmes impact on the participants’ employability
and quality of life
Die Schreibweisen der Sophie von La Roche
No full textInternational audienceDer Beitrag führt exemplarisch die Verwendung von drei unterschiedlichen Schreibweisen durch Sophie von La Roche (1730–1807) vor. Während das Komisch‐Parodistische vor allem zu Beginn ihrer Karriere greifbar ist, ist das lebenslange Festhalten am Moralisch‐Didaktischen und am Hybriden als typisches Kennzeichen ihres Schreibens, aber auch als eine Ursache für ihre immer stärkere Marginalisierung im literarischen Betrieb des ausgehenden 18. Jahrhunderts zu begreifen.The article analyses the use of three different modes of writing (‘Schreibweisen’) by Sophie von La Roche (1730–1807). It is argued that at the beginning of her literary career La Roche wrote in a comic‐parodistic style, while moral‐didactic and hybrid writing are typical characteristics of her entire œuvre. La Roche's use of moral‐didactic and hybrid modes needs to be seen as one of the reasons for the growing marginalisation of the author at the end of the eighteenth century
Slow Dynamics in turbulent Helium flows
No full textThe presence of slow dynamics is a recurrent feature of many turbulent flows. This behaviour can be created by instabilities of the mean flow or by other mechanisms. In this work we analyze the behavior of a highly turbulent Helium flow (maximum Reynolds number Re=10^8, with a Reynolds based on the Taylor microscale Re_\lambda=2000). We have performed velocity measurements using home-made Pitot tubes. The analysis of the data series reveals that below the injection frequencies there are different dynamical regimes with time scales two orders of magnitude below the injection scale
A Short Proof of a Near-Optimal Cardinality Estimate for the Product of a Sum Set
No full textIn this note it is established that, for any finite set A of real numbers, there exist two elements a, b from A such that |(a + A)(b + A)| > c|A|^2 / log |A|, where c is some positive constant. In particular, it follows that |(A + A)(A + A)| > c|A|^2 / log |A|. The latter inequality had in fact already been established in an earlier work of the author and Rudnev, which built upon the recent developments of Guth and Katz in their work on the Erdös distinct distance problem. Here, we do not use those relatively deep methods, and instead we need just a single application of the Szemerédi-Trotter Theorem. The result is also qualitatively stronger than the corresponding sum-product estimate from the paper of the author and Rudnev, since the set (a + A)(b + A) is defined by only two variables, rather than four. One can view this as a solution for the pinned distance problem, under an alternative notion of distance, in the special case when the point set is a direct product A x A. Another advantage of this more elementary approach is that these results can now be extended for the first time to the case when A is a set of complex numbers
Hyperfine splitting of [Al VI] 3.66 mu m and the Al isotopic ratio in NGC 6302
No full textThe core of planetary nebula NGC 6302 is filled with high-excitation photoionized gas at low expansion velocities. It represents a unique astrophysical situation in which to search for hyperfine structure (HFS) in coronal emission lines from highly ionized species. HFS is otherwise blended by thermal or velocity broadening. Spectra containing [Al vr] 3.66 mu m P-3(2) <- P-3(1), obtained with Phoenix on Gemini South at resolving powers of up to 75000, resolve the line into five hyperfine components separated by 20-60 km s(-1) as a result of the coupling of the I = 5/2 nuclear spin of Al-27 with the total electronic angular momentum J. The isotope Al-26 has a different nuclear spin of I = 5, and a different HFS, which allows us to place a 3 sigma upper limit on the Al-26/Al-27 abundance ratio of 1/33. We measure the HFS magnetic dipole coupling constants for [Al vr], and provide the first estimates of the electric quadrupole HFS coupling constants obtained through astronomical observations of an atomic transition
