First Observation of Excited Ω_{b}^{-} States. (2020)

We report four narrow peaks in the Ξ_{b}^{0}K^{-} mass spectrum obtained using pp collisions at center-of-mass energies of 7, 8, and 13 TeV, corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 9 fb^{-1} recorded by the LHCb experiment. Referring to these states by their mass, the mass values are m[Ω_{b}(6316)^{-}]=6315.64±0.31±0.07±0.50 MeV, m[Ω_{b}(6330)^{-}]=6330.30±0.28±0.07±0.50 MeV, m[Ω_{b}(6340)^{-}]=6339.71±0.26±0.05±0.50 MeV, m[Ω_{b}(6350)^{-}]=6349.88±0.35±0.05±0.50 MeV, where the uncertainties are statistical, systematic, and the last is due to the knowledge of the Ξ_{b}^{0} mass. The natural widths of the three lower mass states are consistent with zero, and the 90% confidence-level upper limits are determined to be Γ[Ω_{b}(6316)^{-}]<2.8 MeV, Γ[Ω_{b}(6330)^{-}]<3.1 MeV and Γ[Ω_{b}(6340)^{-}]<1.5 MeV. The natural width of the Ω_{b}(6350)^{-} peak is 1.4_{-0.8}^{+1.0}±0.1 MeV, which is 2.5σ from zero and corresponds to an upper limit of 2.8 MeV. The peaks have local significances ranging from 3.6σ to 7.2σ. After accounting for the look-elsewhere effect, the significances of the Ω_{b}(6316)^{-} and Ω_{b}(6330)^{-} peaks are reduced to 2.1σ and 2.6σ, respectively, while the two higher mass peaks exceed 5σ. The observed peaks are consistent with expectations for excited Ω_{b}^{-} resonances.
CO Oxidation Catalyzed by Supported Gold: Cooperation between Gold and Nanocrystalline Rare‐Earth Supports Forms Reactive Surface Superoxide and Peroxide Species (2005)

Nützliche Defekte: Reaktive η1-Superoxid- und Peroxidspezies bilden sich an Einelektronendefektstellen der Grenzfläche zwischen Goldnanoclustern und nanokristallinem CeO2−x.

Particles at interfaces: general discussion (2016)

Martin Buzza opened discussion of the paper by Bernard Binks: Why aren't the PECs always neutral? Also, why is there a well defined size for the PECs? Do you know what determines the characteristic size? Is it basically the collapsed size of one anionic and one cationic chain or is it bigger th
Industrial Procurement Auctions (2005)

As illustrated in the previous chapters, combinatorial auctions have successfully been applied to various application domains, such as the allocation of airspace system resources (Chapter 20), truckload transportation (Chapter 21) and bus routes (Chapter 22). Industrial procurement is potentially a huge application domain for combinatorial auctions, and it has turned into a topic of interest for software vendors and procurement managers in the B2B domain. A number of applications have been reported, but unfortunately, possibly because of efforts to protect proprietary information and competitive advantages, there is little documentation and public information on details of the design of combinatorial auctions in industrial procurement. The focus of this chapter is on describing current practice in this domain. We will also provide a case study of procurement auctions at Mars, Incorporated in order to illustrate the particularities in this field.

Plasma‐assisted gas‐phase synthesis and in‐line coating of silicon nanoparticles (2020)

Abstract This study investigates the feasibility of plasma‐supported in‐line functionalization of silicon nanoparticles (NPs) in an atmospheric pressure gas‐phase reactor. The approach utilizes the synthesis of core silicon NPs and their subsequent coating downstream of the particle formation zone. In‐line coating is accomplished with a cylindrical coating nozzle to achieve homogenous mixing of coating precursor vapors with in‐coming NPs. Multiple siloxanes were tested for their coating suitability and their ability towards coating homogeneity. It was found that tetraethyl orthosilicate is favored for thin layers consisting of almost pure silica while hexamethyldisiloxane and octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane (OMCTS) coatings contained reasonable amounts of hydrocarbons. Moreover, OMCTS showed a pronounced tendency towards homogeneous nucleation, thus leading to the additional formation of silica NPs due to homogeneous nucleation.

Fluxionality of [(Ph3P)3Rh(X)]: The Extreme Case of X = CF3 (2009)

[(Ph(3)P)(3)Rh(F)] reacts with CF(3)SiMe(3) to produce trans-[(Ph(3)P)(2)Rh(CF(2))(F)] (1; X-ray), which is equilibrated with a number of species in solution. Addition of excess Ph(3)P shifts all of the equilibria to [(Ph(3)P)(3)Rh(CF(3))] (2; X-ray) as the only NMR-observable and isolable (84%) species. Complex 2 is uniquely highly fluxional in solution, maintaining ligand exchange even at -100 degrees C (12.1 s(-1)). Activation parameters have been determined (variable-temperature (31)P NMR) for the similar but slower exchange in the Me analogue of 2, [(Ph(3)P)(3)Rh(CH(3))]: E(a) = 16.5 +/- 0.6 kcal mol(-1), DeltaG(double dagger) = 12.9 kcal mol(-1) (calculated at -30 degrees C), DeltaH(double dagger) = 16.0 +/- 0.6 kcal mol(-1), and DeltaS(double dagger) = 12.8 +/- 2.3 e.u. Intramolecular exchange in [(R(3)P)(3)Rh(X)] occurs (DFT, MP2//BP86) via a distorted trigonal transition state (TS) with X in an axial position trans to a vacant site. The rearrangement is governed by a combination of steric and electronic factors and is facilitated by bulkier ligands on Rh as well as by strongly donating X that stabilize the TS. The Rh atom in [(H(3)P)(3)Rh(X)] has been shown to be more negatively charged (NPA) for X = CF(3) than for X = CH(3), despite the strongly oppositely charged carbon atoms of the CF(3) (+0.79e) and CH(3) (-0.96e) ligands. Clarification of stereochemical rigidity (X = halide, CN, OR, NR(2)) versus fluxionality (X = H, Alk, Ar, CF(3)) is provided, along with a resolution of the long-standing contradiction between the electron-withdrawing effect of CF(3) in organic compounds and its strong trans influence (electron donation) in metal complexes.
Bioinspired Multifunctional Superhydrophobic Surfaces with Carbon-Nanotube-Based Conducting Pastes by Facile and Scalable Printing (2017)

Directly printed superhydrophobic surfaces containing conducting nanomaterials can be used for a wide range of applications in terms of nonwetting, anisotropic wetting, and electrical conductivity. Here, we demonstrated that direct-printable and flexible superhydrophobic surfaces were fabricated on flexible substrates via with an ultrafacile and scalable screen printing with carbon nanotube (CNT)-based conducting pastes. A polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-polyethylene glycol (PEG) copolymer was used as an additive for conducting pastes to realize the printability of the conducting paste as well as the hydrophobicity of the printed surface. The screen-printed conducting surfaces showed a high water contact angle (WCA) (>150°) and low contact angle hysteresis (WCA < 5°) at 25 wt % PDMS-PEG copolymer in the paste, and they have an electrical conductivity of over 1000 S m<sup>-1</sup>. Patterned superhydrophobic surfaces also showed sticky superhydrophobic characteristics and were used to transport water droplets. Moreover, fabricated films on metal meshes were used for an oil/water separation filter, and liquid evaporation behavior was investigated on the superhydrophobic and conductive thin-film heaters by applying direct current voltage to the film.

A search for rare B → Dμ$^{+}$μ$^{−}$ decays (2023)

A search for rare $B \rightarrow D \mu^+ \mu^-$ decays is performed using proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb$^{-1}$. No significant signals are observed in the non-resonant $\mu^+\mu^-$ modes, and upper limits of $\mathcal{B}(B^0 \rightarrow \overline{D}^0 \mu^+ \mu^-) < 5.1 \times 10^{-8}$, $\mathcal{B}(B^+ \rightarrow D_s^+ \mu^+ \mu^-) < 3.2 \times 10^{-8}$, $\mathcal{B}(B_s^0 \rightarrow \overline{D}^0 \mu^+ \mu^-) < 1.6 \times 10^{-7}$ and $f_c/f_u \cdot \mathcal{B}(B_c^+ \rightarrow D_s^+ \mu^+ \mu^-) < 9.6 \times 10^{-8}$ are set at the 95\% confidence level, where $f_c$ and $f_u$ are the fragmentation fractions of a $B$ meson with a $c$ and $u$ quark respectively in proton-proton collisions. Each result is either the first such measurement or an improvement by three orders of magnitude on an existing limit. Separate upper limits are calculated when the muon pair originates from a $J/\psi \rightarrow \mu^+ \mu^-$ decay. The branching fraction of $B_c^+ \rightarrow D_s^+ J/\psi$ multiplied by the fragmentation-fraction ratio is measured to be $f_c/f_u \cdot \mathcal{B}(B_c^+ \rightarrow D_s^+ J/\psi ) = (1.63 \pm 0.15 \pm 0.13) \times 10^{-5}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic.
Elements of Life at the Oxo Wall (2019)

Abstract We live on a planet bathed in dioxygen. Iron, the most abundant transition metal element on Earth, reacts with dioxygen to form rust and red clays. It is also an essential component of enzymes that generate the energy we need to live, but alas, many of these reactions can be harmful, leading eventually to destruction of vital organs in our bodies. We can’t live without iron and dioxygen, but there are challenges living with them!
Tensor analysis of the second-order nonlinear optical susceptibility of chiral anisotropic thin films (2000)

We present a new measurement technique based on second-harmonic generation to investigate thin molecular films with in-plane anisotropy. The technique does not rely on continuous azimuthal patterns of the second-harmonic intensities. Instead, the second-harmonic intensities are recorded at a number of selected distinct azimuthal orientations of the sample. The signals are recorded as functions of the state of polarization of the fundamental laser beam. Only normalized polarization line shapes are required. As the line shapes need not be mutually calibrated, the technique is limited only by the accuracy of the individual polarization measurements and is applicable also to samples with inhomogeneous surface coverage of molecules. The technique is applied to anisotropic chiral thin films with C2 symmetry made of helicenebisquinone. Full analysis of the nonlinear susceptibility tensor of the samples is performed and the effects of anisotropy and chirality separated. The part of the nonlinearity arising from chirality is shown to dominate the nonlinear response.
The Breadcrumb Forwarding Service and the Digital Fountain Rainbow (1999)

If ubiquitously deployed, IP Multicast promises to provide an efficient datagram service for an arbitrary sending host to reach an arbitrary and dynamic set of destination hosts anywhere in the Internet. Unfortunately, two very difficult problems -- interdomain multicast routing and viable end-to-end multicast transport -- have yet to be solved and deployed satisfactorily. This paper proposes a new multicast service model called the Breadcrumb Forwarding Service (BCFS) synthesized from the EXPRESS service model and the network component of the Pragmatic Multicast protocol (PGM). Like EXPRESS, BCFS utilizes explicit-source group join and like PGM, enhances the network forwarding architecture with finer-granularity group control. To demonstrate the flexibility and efficacy of BCFS, we developed a novel reliable multicast transport protocol, Rainbow, for bulk data transfer built on top of BCFS. In this approach, each receiver runs an independent, window-based congestion control algorithm modeled after TCP, thereby affording TCP friendliness while retaining the efficiency of IP Multicast. To enhance scalability and support asynchronous receiver behavior, we employ a Digital Fountain at the source. In this paper, we detail BCFS service model, describe how Rainbow builds on this service model and on the Digital Fountain abstraction, and evaluate the resulting system. Our simulation results show that Rainbow/BCFS performs well in a variety of configurations and is TCP friendly.
A corpus-based approach for the prediction of language impairment in monolingual English and Spanish-English bilingual children (2009)

In this paper we explore a learning-based approach to the problem of predicting language impairment in children. We analyzed spontaneous narratives of children and extracted features measuring different aspects of language including morphology, speech fluency, language productivity and vocabulary. Then, we evaluated a learning-based approach and compared its predictive accuracy against a method based on language models. Empirical results on monolingual English-speaking children and bilingual Spanish-English speaking children show the learning-based approach is a promising direction for automatic language assessment.
Properly timed injections of cortisol and prolactin produce long-term reductions in obesity, hyperinsulinaemia and insulin resistance in the Syrian hamster (Mesocricetus auratus) (1989)

Naturally obese female Syrian hamsters were injected daily with prolactin at 0 or 12 h after cortisol injections for 10 days while held in constant light. Controls were similarly injected with saline. Animals were then held on short daylengths (10 h light:14 h darkness) for 10 weeks. They were allowed free access to food and water from birth to time of death. Ten weeks after treatment, retroperitoneal fat stores, plasma concentrations of insulin and glucose, and hypoglycaemic responsiveness to exogenous insulin were determined. The control groups as well as the 12-h hormone treatment group were obese, hyperinsulinaemic and insulin resistant. However, the 0-h treatment dramatically reduced retroperitoneal fat stores (41-55%), plasma insulin concentration (60-70%) and the insulin to glucose ratio (63-68%) compared with controls. Values for these parameters in the 0-h treatment groups were similar to those of their lean litter-mates. Furthermore, the 0-h group but not the 12-h group was more sensitive than control animals to the hypoglycaemic effects of exogenous insulin at doses 0.2 and 2.0 U/kg body weight. These results demonstrate that timed daily injections of cortisol and prolactin in specific temporal relationships can produce marked reductions in obesity, hyperinsulinaemia and insulin resistance in the Syrian hamster that persist long after the termination of treatment. This study also suggests an important role for the interactions of circadian neuroendocrine systems in the regulation of these metabolic states.
Ab initiodensity functional studies of transition-metal sulphides: II. Electronic structure (1997)

A study of the electronic structure of about thirty transition-metal sulphides (TMS) of various stoichiometries and crystal structures is presented, supplementing recent studies of their structural and cohesive properties (P Raybaud, G Kresse, J Hafner and H Toulhoat, preceding paper). The electronic structure of the TMS is found to be determined by short-range interactions in the S 3p - TM d band complex, with the ligand-field splitting of the TM d states in the environment of the S atoms determining the structure of the d band. For the layered group VI disulphides, for and for the group VIII pyrites this leads to the formation of a gap at the Fermi surface. Semiconducting properties are predicted also for the monosulphides PtS and PdS and for and . We show that the semiconducting TMS have a higher catalytic activity for hydro-desulphurization than the metallic sulphides. We suggest a correlation between the catalytic activity and the characters of the highest occupied states (the frontier orbitals).
REVIEW ARTILCE: Cell therapy and stem cells in animal models of motor neuron disorders (2007)

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), spinal bulbar muscular atrophy (or Kennedy's disease), spinal muscular atrophy and spinal muscular atrophy with respiratory distress 1 are neurodegenerative disorders mainly affecting motor neurons and which currently lack effective therapies. Recent studies in animal models as well as primary and embryonic stem cell models of ALS, utilizing over-expression of mutated forms of Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase 1, have shown that motor neuron degeneration in these models is in part a non cell-autonomous event and that by providing genetically non-compromised supporting cells such as microglia or growth factor-excreting cells, onset can be delayed and survival increased. Using models of acute motor neuron injury it has been shown that embryonic stem cell-derived motor neurons implanted into the spinal cord can innervate muscle targets and improve functional recovery. Thus, a rationale exists for the development of cell therapies in motor neuron diseases aimed at either protecting and/or replacing lost motor neurons, interneurons as well as non-neuronal cells. This review evaluates approaches used in animal models of motor neuron disorders and their therapeutic relevance.
Novel CD8+ T Cell Antagonists Based on β2-Microglobulin (2002)

The CD8 coreceptor of cytotoxic T lymphocytes binds to a conserved region of major histocompatibility complex class I molecules during recognition of peptide-major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I antigens on the surface of target cells. This event is central to the activation of cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) effector functions. The contribution of the MHC complex class I light chain, beta(2)-microglobulin, to CD8alphaalpha binding is relatively small and is mediated mainly through the lysine residue at position 58. Despite this, using molecular modeling, we predict that its mutation should have a dramatic effect on CD8alphaalpha binding. The predictions are confirmed using surface plasmon resonance binding studies and human CTL activation assays. Surprisingly, the charge-reversing mutation, Lys(58) --> Glu, enhances beta(2)m-MHC class I heavy chain interactions. This mutation also significantly reduces CD8alphaalpha binding and is a potent antagonist of CTL activation. These results suggest a novel approach to CTL-specific therapeutic immunosuppression.

Fundamental Limits of Caching in Wireless D2D Networks (2014)

We consider a wireless Device-to-Device (D2D) network where communication is restricted to be single-hop. Users make arbitrary requests from a finite library of files and have pre-cached information on their devices, subject to a per-node storage capacity constraint. A similar problem has already been considered in an ``infrastructure'' setting, where all users receive a common multicast (coded) message from a single omniscient server (e.g., a base station having all the files in the library) through a shared bottleneck link. In this work, we consider a D2D ``infrastructure-less'' version of the problem. We propose a caching strategy based on deterministic assignment of subpackets of the library files, and a coded delivery strategy where the users send linearly coded messages to each other in order to collectively satisfy their demands. We also consider a random caching strategy, which is more suitable to a fully decentralized implementation. Under certain conditions, both approaches can achieve the information theoretic outer bound within a constant multiplicative factor. In our previous work, we showed that a caching D2D wireless network with one-hop communication, random caching, and uncoded delivery, achieves the same throughput scaling law of the infrastructure-based coded multicasting scheme, in the regime of large number of users and files in the library. This shows that the spatial reuse gain of the D2D network is order-equivalent to the coded multicasting gain of single base station transmission. It is therefore natural to ask whether these two gains are cumulative, i.e.,if a D2D network with both local communication (spatial reuse) and coded multicasting can provide an improved scaling law. Somewhat counterintuitively, we show that these gains do not cumulate (in terms of throughput scaling law).
