Comparison Of Vµ-Ar Multiplicity Distributions Observed By Microboone To Genie Predictions
Creators: name: RAFIQUE, Aleena
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2018

description: We measure a large set of observables in inclusive charged current muon neutrino scattering on argon with the MicroBooNE liquid argon time projection chamber operating at Fermilab. We evaluate three neutrino interaction models based on the widely used GENIE event generator using these observables. The measurement uses a data set consisting of neutrino interactions with a final state muon candidate fully contained within the MicroBooNE detector. These data were collected in 2016 with the Fermilab Booster Neutrino Beam, which has an average neutrino energy of 800 MeV, using an exposure corresponding to 5e19 protons-on-target. The analysis employs fully automatic event selection and charged particle track reconstruction and uses a data-driven technique to separate neutrino interactions from cosmic ray background events.

description: Hard rock aquifers are characterized by high heterogeneity, which leads to difficulties in groundwater prospecting, boreholes implementation and water resources management in rural areas of Gbêkè Region. Satisfying people's drinking water needs is therefore linked to a better knowledge of the geometry of discontinuous aquifers. This study focuses on the location of the discontinuities of hydrogeological interest in the crystalline bedrock through the examination of resistivity data from 66 horizontal profiling and 36 vertical electrical sounding employing the Schlumberger. Conducting anomalies founded in the crystalline bedrock were of U, V, W and K shape. Their wide and tight conductor compartments represent 73% and 27% respectively. These correspond to discontinuities and geologic structures such as vein zones, fractures, faults and geological contacts. The chances of having a positive borehole are higher when they oriented to N 5-44° (N-S), N 46-84° (NE-SO), N 137-178° (N-S) et N 183-218°(NE-SO). Electrical soundings reveal three main forms of electrical sounding curves (A, H and KH) with different productivity (p <0.05). The curves “boat bottom”(H) were more productive than the other two types. These correspond to an alteration profile composed from top to bottom of a thin clay lateritic armor with resistivities varying from 98 and 1356 Ω.m, of a fissured-altered conductive zone which has a thickness between 8.5 and 40 meters and healthy bedrock with higher resistivities up to 87721 Ω.m. The "resistivity" parameter therefore determines the alteration profile of the site and characterizes the fracturing zones favorable to the presence of aquifers and the implantation of boreholes.

description: We derive a version of the so-called "best Fokker-Planck approximation" (BFPA) to describe the spatial properties of interacting active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particles (AOUPs) in arbitrary spatial dimensions. In doing so, we also take into account the odd-diffusive contribution of the Lorentz force acting on a charged particle in a spatially dependent magnetic field, sticking to the overdamped limit. While the BFPA itself does not turn out to be widely useful, our general approach allows to deduce an appropriate generalization of the Fox approximation, which we use to characterize the stationary behavior of a single active particle in an external potential by deriving analytic expressions for configurational probability distributions (or effective potentials). In agreement with computer simulations, our theory predicts that the Lorentz force reduces the effective attraction and thus the probability to find an active particle in the vicinity of a repulsive wall. Even for an inhomogeneous magnetic field, our theoretical findings provide useful qualitative insights, specifically regarding the location of accumulation regions.

description: I want to combine two hitherto largely independent research projects, scientific understanding and mechanistic explanations. Understanding is not only achieved by answering why-questions, that is, by providing scientific explanations, but also by answering what-questions, that is, by providing what I call scientific descriptions. Based on this distinction, I develop three forms of understanding: understanding-what, understanding-why, and understanding-how. I argue that understanding-how is a particularly deep form of understanding, because it is based on mechanistic explanations, which answer why something happens in virtue of what it is made of. I apply the three forms of understanding to two case studies: first, to the historical development of thermodynamics and, second, to the differences between the Clausius and the Boltzmann entropy in explaining thermodynamic processes.

description: In Benin, the local governance led by the decentralization is concretized by the municipal and municipal elections of 2002, of 2003, of 2008 and of 2015. This decentralization strengthens the participative approach and revitalizes the democracy. The present search leans on the municipality of Sèmè-Podji, one of seventy-seven municipalities of Benin, to examine the realities of local governance which are for the test of social capital. Polymorphic and ambivalent, the concept of social capital, goshawk of which built itself the thought on the reciprocity of the relations, the standards, the values and the confidence of the individuals or the groups to thirds, favors, thanks to the participation, the local development. The methodological approach based on the document retrieval, the inquiries of ground, the observations and the use of the model of analysis SWOT allowed to obtain results on the basis of analysis and on the basis of discussion. So, in a discursive approach, the role of the share capital and the social representations in the modes of governance on one hand, then the social capital and the participation citizen, a tandem of concepts inclined to the development in decentralization on the other hand, are approached. In the municipality of Sèmè-Podji, at least a type of local tax is known of the population. But the contribution to these taxes remains low. The information stemming from administrative accounts of the municipality and from the CONAFIL shows the low level of mobilization of these taxes by the local administration from 2003 till 2015. Because of the insufficiency in communication, the lack of transparency, the social capital, 72 % of the investigated people asserts having no knowledge of the destination of fiscal receipts mobilized by the local administration; and thus are reluctant to fulfill local taxes. These elements enlarge the falsified between the population and the elected representatives and illustrate the breaches in the principle of democracy which do not favor the implementation of the actions of development.

description: An asymptotically flat hairy black hole (HBH) can exhibit distinct characteristics when compared to the Schwarzschild black hole, due to the evasion of no-hair theorem by minimally coupling the Einstein gravity with a scalar potential which possesses asymmetric vacua, i.e, a false vacuum $(ϕ=0)$ and a true vacuum $(ϕ=ϕ_1)$. In this paper, we investigate the geodesic motion of both massive test particles and photons in the vicinity of HBH with $ϕ_1=0.5$ and $ϕ_1=1.0$ by analyzing their effective potentials derived from the geodesic equation. By fixing $ϕ_1$, the effective potential of a massive test particle increases monotonically when its angular momentum $L$ is very small. When $L$ increases to a critical value, the effective potential possesses an inflection point which is known as the innermost stable of circular orbit (ISCO), where the test particle can still remain stable in a circular orbit with a minimal radius without being absorbed by the HBH or fleeing to infinity. Beyond the critical value of $L$, the effective potential possesses a local minimum and a local maximum, indicating the existence of unstable and stable circular orbits, respectively. Moreover, the HBH possesses an unstable photon sphere but its location slightly deviates from the Schwarzschild black hole. The trajectories of null geodesics in the vicinity of HBH can also be classified into three types, which are the direct, lensing and photon sphere, based on the deflection angle of light, but the values of impact parameters can vary significantly than the Schwarzschild black hole.

description: Climate change now constitutes a reality whose effects are observable in all business sectors and even more in agriculture. So that the producers adapt to these changes, it is necessary to them to have a better understanding of their effects on the production of their speculations. The present search analyzes the determiners of the perception of climate change as well as their effects on the production of the corn in the municipality of Allada in Benin. For that purpose, besides the document retrieval realized with a record of reading and the socio-anthropological investigation realized on a sample of 150 producers of corn of the municipality by means of a questionnaire; data resulting from the Agency for the Safety of the Aviation in Africa and in Madagascar ASECNA (pluviometry and temperature) and of the Direction of the Agricultural Statistics (production) were used. From these various data, three analyses were made: a descriptive analysis of the socioeconomic data and two econometric modellings by means of statistical software (Excel, SPSS, STATA et EVIEWS). This research, on one hand, showed from a logistic regression that the producers of corn owners of the lands whom they exploit, members of a peasant organization and having a number of years of experience raised in the production have a higher chance to perceive the effects of climate change. On the other hand, it allowed concluding from an estimation by the method from the slightest squared ordinary according to Ricardo's model that the pluviometry is significantly and positively correlated to the production of corn to Allada.

description: We present a BRST analysis of supersymmetry anomalies of $\mathcal{N} = 1$ supersymmetric quantum field theories with anomalous R symmetry. To this end, we consider the coupling of the matter theory to classical $\mathcal{N} = 1$ new minimal supergravity. We point out that a supersymmetry anomaly cocycle associated to the $\mathrm{U}(1){}_\mathrm{R}$ field does exist for this theory. It is non-trivial in the space of supergravity fields (and ghosts), but it becomes BRST-exact in the functional space that includes antifields. Equivalently, the $\mathrm{U}(1){}_\mathrm{R}$ supersymmetry anomaly cocycle vanishes "on-shell". It is therefore removable. However, to remove it -- precisely because it is not trivial in the smaller space of fields -- one needs to deform the supergravity BRST operator. This deformation is triggered, at first order in the anomaly coefficient, by a local operator $S_1$ of ghost number 1. We give a cohomological characterization of $S_1$ and compute it in full detail. At higher orders in the anomaly coefficient, we expect a priori that further deformations of the BRST rules are necessary.

description: The Communal Hygiene Office (CHO) is a technical service part of the town, responsible for ensuring the cleanliness and public safety of the population. In this work, a retrospective study of the missions of the Municipal or Communal Hygiene Service of Bechar (Algeria) for the period from 2015 to 2017 is made according to the decree 87-146 of June 30 (1987) relative to the creation of the CHO. The results showed the role of CHO in hygiene and public health, prevention of food poisoning, control of waterborne diseases and zoonotic diseases which rate 60 % of missions (average of 6 inspections per year) aim at hygiene and sanitation in food-related commercial premises. There is an increase in the number of commercial premises due to the growth of the city and that the CHO tries to be dynamic towards this development. Moreover, the improvement in commercial premises with the awareness of the tradesmen is remarkable. This is attributed to the role of CHO in awareness and prevention action rather than repressive action. The authorities must provide the CHO with all the materials and human resources to facilitate its work and to increase its profitability and efficiency.

description: We investigate decays of hypothetical unstable new physics particles into metastable species such as muons, pions, or kaons in the Early Universe, when temperatures are in the MeV range, and study how they affect cosmic neutrinos. We demonstrate that the non-trivial dynamics of metastables in the plasma alters the impact of the new physics particles on the neutrino population, including the effective number of neutrino degrees of freedom, $N_{\rm eff}$, modifies neutrino spectral distortions, and may induce asymmetries in neutrino and antineutrino energy distributions. These modifications have important implications for observables such as Big Bang Nucleosynthesis and the Cosmic Microwave Background, especially in light of upcoming CMB observations aiming to reach percent-level precision on $N_{\rm eff}$. We illustrate our findings with a few examples of new physics particles and provide a computational tool available for further exploration.

description: In sub-Saharan Africa, many cities face urbanization and environmental risks, resulting in part from poor waste management that poses a threat to people's health and well-being. This risk and the potentially generated threats reveal, among other weaknesses, a failure in the management of garbage and waste related to human activities, whether domestic, agricultural, industrial or commercial. In Africa, as elsewhere, there are challenges of efficiency and effectiveness in urban governance that have become a public issue [1]. This article will deal with questions of urbanization in the dawn of the problematic of the sustainable cities, and in particular, the enigmatic issue of waste management in Bissau and Ziguinchor. In both our case studies, the improvement of the living environment is at the heart of any development policy where the issue of sanitation, including waste management, is very often left to the discretion of local and national decision-makers. This situation has led to an obsolescence of technical structures and has led to shortcomings in the technical skills needed to adequately deal with sanitation challenges, without forgetting the prohibitive costs involved.

description: In Morocco, surface water and groundwater constitute an important resource. In the last years, this resource has known a big decrease due to the increasing of user pressure and the effects of climate change. The catchments of Oueds Fez (879 km²) and Mikkes (1513 km²) are part of the plaine The Saïs, which considers itself one of the most important agricultural areas in Morocco. which drains from the Middle Atlas to the pre-rif mountain ridges across the Saïs plateau. In this context, for the best rational management of water resources, it is first necessary to know the situation of this water resource in the study area, based on hydrometric measurements on the ground (point by point gauging), then we will use a geographical information system to fully understand the situation of water resources in this region. The methodology adopted consists in collecting various types of data, this database has been set up on a geographic information system to produce spatial maps and hydrological yield maps. The use of new technologies is an important tool for decision-making in water resource management.

description: We investigate the cosmological impact of hypothetical unstable new physics particles that decay in the MeV-scale plasma of the Early Universe. Focusing on scenarios where the decays produce metastable species such as muons, pions, and kaons, we systematically analyze the dynamics of these particles using coupled Boltzmann equations governing their abundances. Our results demonstrate that the metastable species can efficiently annihilate or interact with nucleons, often leading to their disappearance before decay. The suppression of decay significantly alters the properties of cosmic neutrinos, impacting cosmological observables like Big Bang nucleosynthesis and the Cosmic Microwave Background. To support further studies, we provide two public codes: the Mathematica code that traces the evolution of these metastable particles, as well as the python-based unintegrated neutrino Boltzmann solver that uses this evolution as an input and may be applied to a broad range of scenarios. We then utilize them for studying a few particular new physics models.

Subjects: Aghien Lagoon, Mé River, Coagulation-flocculation, elimination, Dissolved organic carbon.

description: Natural organic matter is responsible for the formation of carcinogenic and mutagenic chlorination byproducts during drinking water production. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of removing dissolved organic matter and turbidity with alumina sulphate during the coagulation-flocculation water. Two types of water, Mé River and that of the Aghien Lagoon were subjected to test jar tests. The evaluation of the effectiveness of the treatment was determined by measuring the reduction of turbidity, UV254 absorbance and dissolved organic carbon at pH ranging from 4 to 6.5. The results obtained show that at pH 5 - 5.5, a good elimination of the material at respective rates of plus 77,02 % and 71,68 % for Aghien Lagoon and Mé River those of was observed. Turbidity reduction rates were 98.74% for the waters of the Mé and 98.4% for the waters of the Aghien lagoon, for pH values of 5 - 5.5. These allowances were obtained for doses of coagulant of 50 and 60 mg.L-1 respectively for Mé water and those of the Aghien Lagoon. Despite the distinct nature of these water sources, the results showed similar behavior in removing turbidity and dissolved organic carbon.

description: The system of Lake Zowla- Aneho Lagoon is a hydro system threatened by the problems of pollution by the trace elements. Indeed, the rejection of household waste, the discharge of wastewater from the city of Aneho, the contribution of marine waters and rivers Mono, Haho, and Boko are among other sources of contamination of this ecosystem. Thus, in order to determine the pollution level of in the System Lake Zowla- Aneho Lagoon, a study on sediment contamination was conducted. 18 sediment samples were collected in April (dry season) and August (rainy season) and analyzed for 7 trace metals (mercury, arsenic, lead, cadmium, zinc, copper and chromium) using Thermo Fischer Solaar S2 flame atomic absorption spectrometer coupled to a cold vapour emitter Thermo Scientific VP100 at the Laboratory. The results of analyzes show a spatial and seasonal variation of the contents of the trace elements in the sediments. The average levels of mercury, arsenic, lead cadmium, zinc, copper and chromium are respectively 0.02 mg/kg; 2.8mg/kg; 16.9mg/kg; 1.2mg/kg; 53.57 mg / kg; 12.92 m/kg and 12.7 mg/kg in the dry season and 0.013 mg / kg, respectively; 2.2mg / kg; 11.37 mg / kg; 0.8mg / kg; 32.85mg / kg; 8.56mg / kg and 7.81mg / kg in the rainy season. The calculation of the Contamination Factors and the Geoacumulation Index show that the sediments are slightly to moderately polluted. The sites located in the urbanized zones and of agricultural activities, market gardening are the sites showing strong contaminations. This shows the implication of anthropogenic activities in the contamination of the system of Lac Zowla - Aneho Lagoon.

description: Reliable computational methodologies and basis sets for modeling x-ray spectra are essential for extracting and interpreting electronic and structural information from experimental x-ray spectra. In particular, the trade-off between numerical accuracy and computational cost due to the size of the basis set is a major challenge, since molecular orbitals undergo extreme relaxation in the core-hole state. To gain clarity on changes in electronic structure induced by the formation of a core-hole, the use of sufficiently flexible basis for expanding the orbitals, particularly for the core region, has been shown to be essential. This work focuses on the refinement of core-hole ionized state calculations using the equation-of-motion coupled cluster (EOM-CC) family of methods through an extensive analysis on the effectiveness of "hybrid" and mixed basis sets. In this investigation, we utilize the CVS-EOMIP-CCSD method in combination and construct hybrid basis sets piece-wise from readily available Dunning's correlation consistent basis sets in order to calculate x-ray ionization energies for a set of small gas phase molecules. Our results provide insights into the impact of basis sets on CVS-EOMIP-CCSD calculations of K-edge ionization energies of first-row p-block elements. These insights enable us to understand more about the basis set dependence of the core IEs computed and allow us to establish a protocol for deriving reliable and cost-effective theoretical estimates for computing IEs of small molecules containing such elements.

description: Many factors influence biomolecules binding, and its assessment constitutes an elusive challenge in computational structural biology. In this respect, the evaluation of shape complementarity at molecular interfaces is one of the main factors to be considered. We focus on the particular case of antibody-antigen complexes to quantify the complementarities occurring at molecular interfaces. We relied on a method we recently developed, which employs the 2D Zernike descriptors, to characterize investigated regions with an ordered set of numbers summarizing the local shape properties. Collected a structural dataset of antibody-antigen complexes, we applied this method and we statistically distinguished, in terms of shape complementarity, pairs of interacting regions from non-interacting ones. Thus, we set up a novel computational strategy based on \textit{in-silico} mutagenesis of antibody binding site residues. We developed a Monte Carlo procedure to increase the shape complementarity between the antibody paratope and a given epitope on a target protein surface. We applied our protocol against several molecular targets in SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, known to be indispensable for viral cell invasion. We, therefore, optimized the shape of template antibodies for the interaction with such regions. As the last step of our procedure, we performed an independent molecular docking validation of the results of our Monte Carlo simulations.
