description: We study tt*-geometry on the classifying space for regular singular TERP-structures, e.g., Fourier-Laplace transformations of Brieskorn lattices of isolated hypersurface singularities. We show that (a part of) this classifying space can be canonically equipped with a hermitian structure. We derive an estimate for the holomorphic sectional curvature of this hermitian metric, which is the analogue of a similar result for classifying spaces of pure polarized Hodge structures.

description: The use of shared mutable state, commonly seen in object-oriented systems, is often problematic due to the potential conflicting interactions between aliases to the same state. We present a substructural type system outfitted with a novel lightweight interference control mechanism, rely-guarantee protocols, that enables controlled aliasing of shared resources. By assigning each alias separate roles, encoded in a novel protocol abstraction in the spirit of rely-guarantee reasoning, our type system ensures that challenging uses of shared state will never interfere in an unsafe fashion. In particular, rely-guarantee protocols ensure that each alias will never observe an unexpected value, or type, when inspecting shared memory regardless of how the changes to that shared state (originating from potentially unknown program contexts) are interleaved at run-time.

PharMeBINet: a general-Purpose approach for the integration of heterogeneous biomedical data Sources and its application to drug-drug interaction prediction
Creators: name: Königs, Cassandra
Publisher: name: Universität Bielefeld
Year: 2025
Subjects: subject: 000

description: Biological and medical data has become available in large quantities, especially from high-throughput technologies. This increase in data causes problems for storage and analysis. As a solution, data is combined into databases, resulting in an increase in the number of biomedical databases in the last years. For some analyses, a combination of multiple databases is needed to gather all information relevant to uncover unknown associations. A common way to represent such combined heterogeneous data is a knowledge graph (KG). However, their robustness and quality need to be considered, as low-quality KGs can lead to poor Analysis results and decision-making. KGs with an approved quality are used for multiple tasks, like drug repurposing, or the prediction of drug-target interactions, drug-drug interactions, or side effects for polypharmacy.

This thesis analyzes and compares existing KGs regarding their adherence to defined essential features for KGs. A workflow is implemented for the construction of the pharmacological medical biochemical network (PharMeBINet) KG. PharMeBINet is compared to existing KGs and compared to the same features. An accompanying web portal is implemented allowing the inspection and analysis of the KG. An enrichment analysis module provides a broad spectrum of options for users to choose from, such as multiple tests, correction methods, input types, and enrichment types. The enrichment analysis is compared to existing enrichment tools using a published dataset. Additional analysis modules are implemented and described. Overall, PharMeBINet fulfills all defined KG features, in comparison to other KGs, and provides a robust and well-connected view on biomedical information. Existing drug-drug interaction (DDI) prediction methods are analyzed for their reproducibility. Furthermore, several DDI prediction methods are implemented. All methods are compared regarding their performance on the same dataset extracted from the PharMeBINet KG. The results demonstrate the applicability of PharMeBINet for machine learning-based DDI prediction.

Additional use cases are described, demonstrating the overall reusability and applicability of the PharMeBINet KG for various analyses. PharMeBINet is open-source and freely available at https://pharmebi.net.
Using Residential Histories to Investigate the Role of Segregation in Racial Cancer Inequities
Creators: name: Boylan, Emma E.
Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago
Year: 2024

description: Background: Segregation and neighborhood socioeconomic disadvantage are associated with racial disparities in cancer prognosis and survival. However, limited availability of historical data means that few epidemiologists have been able to study the health effects of experiencing either segregation or neighborhood disadvantage in the past.
Objective: Using available sources of residential history data in people with cancer, estimate past exposure to neighborhood concentrated disadvantage and evaluate its association with stage at diagnosis and survival.
Methods: Two complementary sources of residential history data were used. In the Panel Study of Income Dynamics, residential histories were obtained from geocoded addresses obtained over the course of study participation. Participants who reported an adult history of cancer were included, and their vital status was obtained from study records. Past addresses were linked to a database of Census-tract level concentrated disadvantage scores. Cox proportional hazards models were used to evaluate the association between neighborhood disadvantage before diagnosis and length of survival after diagnosis. In the UI Hospital and Health System tumor registry, all analytic cases of colorectal cancer diagnosed between 1995-2004 were selected. Vital status and cause of death were ascertained through linkage to the National Death Index. Multinomial logistic models were used to evaluate the association between past neighborhood disadvantage and cancer stage. Cox proportional hazards models were used to evaluate the association between past neighborhood disadvantage and cancer-specific survival.
Results: Once each dataset was prepared, there were no racial inequities in stage at diagnosis, all-cause mortality, or cancer-specific mortality among the included cases. This is consistent with prior research indicating that residential histories are less complete and available in people who are not white, who have lower incomes, or who have died. Past neighborhood disadvantage did not predict all-cause survival in the survey sample or cancer stage in the tumor registry sample. Both past and at-diagnosis disadvantage predicted survival in the tumor registry sample, but residential history data did not improve prediction.
Conclusion: Residential history data are challenging to collect and interpret, and may introduce bias into observational studies when they are less complete and available in some cases. Researchers should carefully assess the risk of data loss and bias before conditioning study inclusion on the availability of these data. However, the Panel Study of Income Dynamics is a rich source of information about social determinants of health. Similar approaches could be more successful in the study of health conditions or behaviors that are more common than cancer.
Kaluza-Klein towers in warped spaces with metric singularities

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: The version of the warp model that we proposed to explain the mass scale hierarchy has been extended by the introduction of one or more singularities in the metric. We restricted ourselves to a real massless scalar field supposed to propagate in a five dimensional bulk with the extradimension being compactified on a strip or on a circle. With the same emphasis on the hermiticity and commutativity properties of the Kakuza Klein operators, we have established all the allowed boundary conditions to be imposed on the fields. From them, for given positions of the singularities, one can deduce either mass eigenvalues building up a Kaluza Klein tower, or a tachyon, or a zero mass state. Assuming the Planck mass to be the high mass scale and by a choice, unique for all boundary conditions, of the major warp parameters, the low lying mass eigenvalues are of the order of the TeV, in this way explaining the mass scale hierarchy. In our model, the physical masses are related to the Kaluza Klein eigenvalues, depending on the location of the physical brane which is an arbitrary parameter of the model. Illustrative numerical calculations are given to visualize the structure of Kaluza Klein mass eigenvalue towers. Observation at high energy colliders like LHC of a mass tower with its characteristic structure would be the fingerprint of the model.

We apply partial-wave methods to compute amplitudes for the helicity-conserving and helicity-reversing contributions to the cross section, accurate to first order in $Mω$. Contrary to previous claims, we find that the partial-wave cross section agrees with the cross section derived via perturbation-theory methods.

description: The B-cell receptor (BCR) is a key player of the adaptive immune system. It is a unique part of immunoglobulin (Ig) molecules expressed on the surface of B cells. In case of many B-cell lymphomas, the tumor cells express a tumor-specific and functionally active BCR, also known as idiotype. Utilizing the idiotype as target for lymphoma therapy has emerged to be demanding since the idiotype differs from patient to patient. Previous studies have shown that shark-derived antibody domains (vNARs) isolated from a semi-synthetic CDR3-randomized library allow for the rapid generation of anti-idiotype binders. In this study, we evaluated the potential of generating patient-specific binders against the idiotype of lymphomas. To this end, the BCRs of three different lymphoma cell lines SUP-B8, Daudi, and IM-9 were identified, the variable domains were reformatted and the resulting monoclonal antibodies produced. The SUP-B8 BCR served as antigen in fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS)-based screening of the yeast-displayed vNAR libraries which resulted after three rounds of screening in the enrichment of antigen-binding vNARs. Five vNARs were expressed as Fc fusion proteins and consequently analyzed for their binding to soluble antigen using biolayer interferometry (BLI) revealing binding constants in the lower single-digit nanomolar range. These variants showed specific binding to the parental SUP-B8 cell line confirming a similar folding of the recombinantly expressed proteins compared with the native cell surface-presented BCR. First initial experiments to utilize the generated vNAR-Fc variants for BCR-clustering to induce apoptosis or ADCC/ADCP did not result in a significant decrease of cell viability. Here, we report an alternative approach for a personalized B-cell lymphoma therapy based on the construction of vNAR-Fc antibody-drug conjugates to enable specific killing of malignant B cells, which may widen the therapeutic window for B-cell lymphoma therapy.

description: We construct an event-based computer simulation model of the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen-Bohm experiments with photons. The algorithm is a one-to-one copy of the data gathering and analysis procedures used in real laboratory experiments. We consider two types of experiments, those with a source emitting photons with opposite but otherwise unpredictable polarization and those with a source emitting photons with fixed polarization. In the simulation, the choice of the direction of polarization measurement for each detection event is arbitrary. We use three different procedures to identify pairs of photons and compute the frequency of coincidences by analyzing experimental data and simulation data. The model strictly satisfies Einstein's criteria of local causality, does not rely on any concept of quantum theory and reproduces the results of quantum theory for both types of experiments. We give a rigorous proof that the probabilistic description of the simulation model yields the quantum theoretical expressions for the single- and two-particle expectation values.

description: Abstract: "This paper reports on a simulation study of social networks that investigated how network topology relates to the robustness of measures of system-level node centrality. This association is important to understand as data collected for social network analysis is often somewhat erroneous and may -- to an unknown degree -- misrepresent the actual true network. Consequently the values for measures of centrality calculated from the collected network data may also vary somewhat from those of the true network, possibly leading to incorrect suppositions. To explore the robustness, i.e., sensitivity, of network centrality measures in this circumstance, we conduct Monte Carlo experiments whereby we generate an initial network, perturb its copy with a specific type of error, then compare the centrality measures from two instances. We consider the initial network to represent a true network, while the perturbed represents the observed network. We apply a six-factor full-factorial block design for the overall methodology. We vary several control variables (network topology, size and density, as well as error type, form and level) to generate 10,000 samples each from both the set of all possible networks and possible errors within the parameter space. Results show that the topology of the true network can dramatically affect the robustness profile of the centrality measures. We found that across all permutations that cellular networks had a nearly identical profile to that of uniform-random networks, while the core-periphery networks had a considerably different profile. The centrality measures for the core-periphery networks are highly sensitive to small levels of error, relative to uniform and cellular topologies. Except in the case of adding edges, as the error increases, the robustness level for the 3 topologies deteriorate and ultimately converges."

description: Quantum physics was invented to account for two fundamental features of measurement results -- their discreetness and randomness. Emblematic of these features is Bohr's idea of quantum jumps between two discrete energy levels of an atom. Experimentally, quantum jumps were first observed in an atomic ion driven by a weak deterministic force while under strong continuous energy measurement. The times at which the discontinuous jump transitions occur are reputed to be fundamentally unpredictable. Can there be, despite the indeterminism of quantum physics, a possibility to know if a quantum jump is about to occur or not? Here, we answer this question affirmatively by experimentally demonstrating that the jump from the ground to an excited state of a superconducting artificial three-level atom can be tracked as it follows a predictable "flight," by monitoring the population of an auxiliary energy level coupled to the ground state. The experimental results demonstrate that the jump evolution when completed is continuous, coherent, and deterministic. Furthermore, exploiting these features and using real-time monitoring and feedback, we catch and reverse a quantum jump mid-flight, thus deterministically preventing its completion. Our results, which agree with theoretical predictions essentially without adjustable parameters, support the modern quantum trajectory theory and provide new ground for the exploration of real-time intervention techniques in the control of quantum systems, such as early detection of error syndromes.

description: In the Hamiltonian approach to Coulomb gauge Yang-Mills theory, the functional Schroedinger equation is solved variationally resulting in a set of coupled Dyson-Schwinger equations. These equations are solved self-consistently in the subcritical regime defined by infrared finite form factors. It is shown that the Dyson-Schwinger equation for the Coulomb form factor fails to have a solution in the critical regime where all form factors have infrared divergent power laws.

description: Recent studies proposed that cosmic rays (CR) are a key ingredient in setting the conditions for star formation, thanks to their ability to alter the thermal and chemical state of dense gas in the UV-shielded cores of molecular clouds. In this paper, we explore their role as regulators of the stellar initial mass function (IMF) variations, using the semi-analytic model for GAlaxy Evolution and Assembly (GAEA). The new model confirms our previous results obtained using the integrated galaxy-wide IMF (IGIMF) theory: both variable IMF models reproduce the observed increase of $α$-enhancement as a function of stellar mass and the measured $z=0$ excess of dynamical mass-to-light ratios with respect to photometric estimates assuming a universal IMF. We focus here on the mismatch between the photometrically-derived ($M^{\rm app}_{\star}$) and intrinsic ($M_{\star}$) stellar masses, by analysing in detail the evolution of model galaxies with different values of $M_{\star}/M^{\rm app}_{\star}$. We find that galaxies with small deviations (i.e. formally consistent with a universal IMF hypothesis) are characterized by more extended star formation histories and live in less massive haloes with respect to the bulk of the galaxy population. While the IGIMF theory does not change significantly the mean evolution of model galaxies with respect to the reference model, a CR-regulated IMF implies shorter star formation histories and higher peaks of star formation for objects more massive than $10^{10.5} M_\odot$. However, we also show that it is difficult to unveil this behaviour from observations, as the key physical quantities are typically derived assuming a universal IMF.

Leveraging Leaders in Child-Serving Legal System Reform

description: The impacts of justice-involvement on youth (e.g., increased mental health concerns and vulnerability to complex trauma) have led researchers and community providers to recognize the urgent need for systemic reform towards a trauma-informed organizational climate. Implementation strategies are techniques used to enhance changes in service environments. Using a unique ethnographic approach, discussions were harnessed and analyzed using qualitative thematic analysis to identify which implementation strategies were used by leaders to improve the culture and climate of their juvenile justice centers. A variety of implementation strategies were used by leaders to influence the culture and climate of their settings. Further, the strategies used map onto existing implementation strategy taxonomies previously used in implementation science efforts. These identified strategies, in turn, may be used to inform future implementation endeavors, support leaders in youth legal system change, and ultimately improve youth, family, and community outcomes.

description: The Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA) will consist of up to 64 state-of-the-art sub-mm telescopes, subject to stringent performance specifications which will push the boundaries of the technology, and makes testing of antenna performance a likewise challenging task. Two antenna prototypes were evaluated at the ALMA Test Facility at the Very Large Array site in New Mexico, USA. The dynamic behaviour of the antennas under operational conditions was investigated with the help of an accelerometer system capable of measuring rigid body motion of the elevation structure of the antenna, as well as a few low-order deformation modes, resulting in dynamic performance numbers for pointing stability, reflector surface stability, path length stability, and structure flexure. Special emphasis was given to wind effects, one of the major factors affecting performance on timescales of seconds to tens of minutes. This paper describes the accelerometer system, its capabilities and limitations, and presents the dynamic performance results of the two prototype antennas investigated.

description: This work demonstrates how seemingly anonymous DNA database entries can be related to publicly available health information to uniquely and specifically identify the persons who are the subjects of the information even though the DNA information contains no accompanying explicit identifiers such as name, address, or Social Security number and contains no additional fields of personal information. The software program, REID (Re-Identification of DNA), iteratively uncovers unique occurrences in visit-disease patterns across data collections that reveal inferences about the identities of the patients who are the subject of the DNA. Using real-world data, REID established identifiable linkages in 33-100% of the 10,886 cases explicitly surveyed over 8 gene-based diseases.

description: Using the new capabilities of Spitzer and extensive multiwavelength data from SINGS, it is now possible to study the infrared properties of star formation in nearby galaxies down to scales equivalent to large H II regions. We are therefore able to determine what fraction of large, infrared-selected star-forming regions in normal galaxies are highly obscured and address how much of the star formation we miss by relying solely on the optical portion of the spectrum. Employing a new empirical method for deriving attenuations of infrared-selected star-forming regions, we investigate the statistics of obscured star formation on 500 pc scales in a sample of 38 nearby galaxies. We find that the median attenuation is 1.4 mag in Hα and that there is no evidence for a substantial subpopulation of uniformly highly obscured star-forming regions. The regions in the highly obscured tail of the attenuation distribution (AHα 3) make up only ~4% of the sample of nearly 1800 regions, although very embedded infrared sources on the much smaller scales and lower luminosities of compact and ultracompact H II regions are almost certainly present in greater numbers. The highly obscured cases in our sample are generally the bright, central regions of galaxies with high overall attenuation but are not otherwise remarkable. We also find that a majority of the galaxies show decreasing radial trends in Hα attenuation. The small fraction of highly obscured regions seen in this sample of normal, star-forming galaxies suggests that on 500 pc scales the timescale for significant dispersal or breakup of nearby, optically thick dust clouds is short relative to the lifetime of a typical star-forming region.

description: We present a photometric study of the dwarf galaxy population in the core region ($< r_{\rm vir}/4$) of the Fornax galaxy cluster based on deep $u'g'i'$ photometry from the Next Generation Fornax Cluster Survey. All imaging data were obtained with the Dark Energy Camera mounted on the 4-meter Blanco telescope at the Cerro-Tololo Interamerican Observatory. We identify 258 dwarf galaxy candidates with luminosities $-17 < M_{g'} < -8$ mag, corresponding to typical stellar masses of $9.5\gtrsim \log{\cal M}_{\star}/M_\odot \gtrsim 5.5$, reaching $\sim\!3$ mag deeper in point-source luminosity and $\sim\!4$ mag deeper in surface-brightness sensitivity compared to the classic Fornax Cluster Catalog. Morphological analysis shows that surface-brightness profiles are well represented by single-component Sérsic models with average Sérsic indices of $\langle n\rangle_{u',g',i'}=(0.78-0.83) \pm 0.02$, and average effective radii of $\langle r_e\rangle_{u',g',i'}\!=(0.67-0.70) \pm 0.02$ kpc. Color-magnitude relations indicate a flattening of the galaxy red sequence at faint galaxy luminosities, similar to the one recently discovered in the Virgo cluster. A comparison with population synthesis models and the galaxy mass-metallicity relation reveals that the average faint dwarf galaxy is likely older than ~5 Gyr. We study galaxy scaling relations between stellar mass, effective radius, and stellar mass surface density over a stellar mass range covering six orders of magnitude. We find that over the sampled stellar mass range several distinct mechanisms of galaxy mass assembly can be identified: i) dwarf galaxies assemble mass inside the half-mass radius up to $\log{\cal M}_{\star}$ ~8.0, ii) isometric mass assembly in the range $8.0 < \log{\cal M}_{\star}/M_\odot < 10.5$, and iii) massive galaxies assemble stellar mass predominantly in their halos at $\log{\cal M}_{\star}$ ~10.5 and above.

description: Among the elements exhibiting non-mass dependent isotopic variations in meteorites, chromium (Cr) has been central in arguing for an isotopic homogeneity between the Earth and the Moon. However, the 54Cr isotope composition of the Moon relies on 2 samples only, which define an average value that is slightly different from the terrestrial standard. Here, by determining the Cr isotopic composition of 17 lunar, 9 terrestrial and 5 enstatite chondrite samples, we re-assess the isotopic similarity between these different planetary bodies, and provide the first robust estimate for the Moon. In average, terrestrial and enstatite samples show similar eps_54Cr. On the other hand, lunar samples show variables excesses of 53Cr and 54Cr compared to terrestrial and enstatite chondrites samples with correlated eps_53Cr and eps_54Cr (per 10,000 deviation of the 53Cr/52Cr and 54Cr/52Cr ratios normalized to the 50Cr/52Cr ratio from Cr standard). Unlike previous suggestions, we show for the first time that cosmic irradiation can affect significantly the Cr isotopic composition of lunar materials. Moreover, we also suggest that rather than spallation reactions, neutron capture effects are the dominant process controlling the Cr isotope composition of lunar igneous rocks. This is supported by the correlation between eps_53Cr and eps_54Cr, and 150Sm/152Sm ratios. After correction of these effects, the average eps_54Cr of the Moon is indistinguishable from the terrestrial and enstatite chondrite materials reinforcing the idea of an Earth-Moon-Enstatite chondrite system homogeneity. This is compatible with the most recent scenarios of Moon formation suggesting an efficient physical homogenization after a high-energy impact on a fast spinning Earth, and/or with an impactor originating from the same reservoir in the inner proto-planetary disk as the Earth and enstatite chondrites and having similar composition.

description: In this paper we explore general conditions which guarantee that the geodesic flow on a 2-dimensional manifold with indefinite signature is locally separable. This is equivalent to showing that a 2-dimensional natural Hamiltonian system on the hyperbolic plane possesses a second integral of motion which is a quadratic polynomial in the momenta associated with a 2nd-rank Killing tensor. We examine the possibility that the integral is preserved by the Hamiltonian flow on a given energy hypersurface only (weak integrability) and derive the additional requirement necessary to have conservation at arbitrary values of the Hamiltonian (strong integrability). Using null coordinates, we show that the leading-order coefficients of the invariant are arbitrary functions of one variable in the case of weak integrability. These functions are quadratic polynomials in the coordinates in the case of strong integrability. We show that for $(1+1)$-dimensional systems there are three possible types of conformal Killing tensors, and therefore, three distinct separability structures in contrast to the single standard Hamilton-Jacobi type separation in the positive definite case. One of the new separability structures is the complex/harmonic type which is characterized by complex separation variables. The other new type is the linear/null separation which occurs when the conformal Killing tensor has a null eigenvector.

description: Many corpus-based Machine Translation (MT) systems generate a number of partial translations which are then pieced together rather than immediately producing one overall translation. While this makes them more robust to ill-formed input, they are subject to disfluencies at phrasal translation boundaries even for well-formed input. We address this “boundary friction” problem by introducing a method that exploits overlapping phrasal translations and the increased confidence in translation accuracy they imply. We specify an efficient algorithm for producing translations using overlap. Finally, our empirical analysis indicates that this approach produces higher quality translations than the standard method of combining non-overlapping fragments generated by our Example-Based MT (EBMT) system in a peak-to-peak comparison.

Pairing mean-field theory for the dynamics of dissociation of molecular Bose-Einstein condensates

description: We develop a pairing mean-field theory to describe the quantum dynamics of the dissociation of molecular Bose-Einstein condensates into their constituent bosonic or fermionic atoms. We apply the theory to one, two, and three-dimensional geometries and analyze the role of dimensionality on the atom production rate as a function of the dissociation energy. As well as determining the populations and coherences of the atoms, we calculate the correlations that exist between atoms of opposite momenta, including the column density correlations in 3D systems. We compare the results with those of the undepleted molecular field approximation and argue that the latter is most reliable in fermionic systems and in lower dimensions. In the bosonic case we compare the pairing mean-field results with exact calculations using the positive-$P$ stochastic method and estimate the range of validity of the pairing mean-field theory. Comparisons with similar first-principle simulations in the fermionic case are currently not available, however, we argue that the range of validity of the present approach should be broader for fermions than for bosons in the regime where Pauli blocking prevents complete depletion of the molecular condensate.

description: The Cremona group is the group of birational transformations of the plane. A birational transformation for which there exists a pencil of lines which is sent onto another pencil of lines is called a Jonquières transformation. By the famous Noether-Castelnuovo theorem, every birational transformation $f$ is a product of Jonquières transformations. The minimal number of factors in such a product will be called the length, and written $\mathrm{lgth}(f)$. Even if this length is rather unpredictable, we provide an explicit algorithm to compute it, which only depends on the multiplicities of the linear system of $f$. As an application of this computation, we give a few properties of the dynamical length of $f$ defined as the limit of the sequence $n \mapsto \mathrm{lgth} (f^n) / n$. It follows for example that an element of the Cremona group is distorted if and only if it is algebraic. The computation of the length may also be applied to the so called Wright complex associated with the Cremona group: This has been done recently by Lonjou. Moreover, we show that the restriction of the length to the automorphism group of the affine plane is the classical length of this latter group (the length coming from its amalgamated structure). In another direction, we compute the lengths and dynamical lengths of all monomial transformations, and of some Halphen transformations. Finally, we show that the length is a lower semicontinuous map on the Cremona group endowed with its Zariski topology.
Effects of interaction induced second Landau level mixing in the nu=1 quantum Hall effect

description: Work by Mandal and Jain [S. S. Mandal and J. K. Jain, Solid State Commun. 118, 503 (2001)] suggests that interaction induced mixing with the second composite fermion Landau level can lead to renormalization of the electron correlation function exponent in the fractional quantum Hall effect. In the work reported here a similar mixing with the second electronic Landau level is studied in the nu=1 integer case. The ground state is calculated by use of the Hartree-Fock algorithm, and the electron density and electron correlation function on the edge are calculated. It is shown that the interaction gives rise to oscillations in the density profile. In particular, a short range interaction gives a profile qualitatively similar to the results reported by Mandal and Jain. On the other hand, no renormalization of the correlation function exponent is found.

The Double Chooz reactor neutrino experiment

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Experiment (hep-ex)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The Double Chooz reactor neutrino experiment will be the next detector to search for a non vanishing theta13 mixing angle with unprecedented sensitivity, which might open the way to unveiling CP violation in the leptonic sector. The measurement of this angle will be based in a precise comparison of the antineutrino spectrum at two identical detectors located at different distances from the Chooz nuclear reactor cores in France. Double Chooz is particularly attractive because of its capability to measure sin2(2theta13) to 3 sigmas if sin2(2theta13) > 0.05 or to exclude sin2(2theta13) down to 0.03 at 90% C.L. for Dm2 = 2.5 x 10-3 eV2 in three years of data taking with both detectors. The construction of the far detector starts in 2008 and the first neutrino results are expected in 2009. The current status of the experiment, its physics potential and design and expected performance of the detector are reviewed.
