On the algebraic types of the Bel–Robinson tensor
The Bel–Robinson tensor is analyzed as a linear map on the space of the traceless symmetric tensors. This study leads to an algebraic classification that refines the usual Petrov–Bel classification of the Weyl tensor. The new classes correspond to degenerate type I space-times which have already been introduced in literature from another point of view. The Petrov–Bel types and the additional ones are intrinsically characterized in terms of the sole Bel–Robinson tensor, and an algorithm is proposed that enables the different classes to be distinguished. Results are presented that solve the problem of obtaining the Weyl tensor from the Bel–Robinson tensor in regular cases.

title: On the intrinsic labeling of space‐times: a characterization of the Kerr solution
abstract: The interest of obtaining an intrinsic (depending solely on the metric tensor) and fully explicit characterization of a space‐time is pointed out. We give the necessary and sufficient (local) conditions for a metric tensor to be the Kerr solution. These conditions exclusively involve concomitants of the Weyl tensor.

title: Vacuum type I spacetimes and aligned Papapetrou fields: symmetries
abstract: We analyse type I vacuum solutions admitting an isometry whose Killing 2-form is aligned with a principal bivector of the Weyl tensor, and we show that these solutions belong to a family of type I metrics which admit a group G3 of isometries. We give a classification of this family and study the Bianchi type for each class. The classes compatible with an aligned Killing 2-form are also determined. The Szekeres–Brans theorem is extended to non-vacuum spacetimes with vanishing Cotton tensor.

title: Aligned Electric and Magnetic Weyl Fields
abstract: The results on the non-existence of purely magnetic solutions are extended to the wider class of spacetimes which have homothetic electric and magnetic Weyl fields. This class is a particularization of the spacetimes admitting a direction for which the relative electric and magnetic Weyl fields are aligned. We give an invariant characterization of these metrics and study the properties of their Debever null vectors. The directions ‘observing’ aligned electric and magnetic Weyl fields are obtained for every Petrov-Bel type.

title: On the super-energy radiative gravitational fields
abstract: We extend our recent analysis (Ferrando J J and Saez J A 2012 ) on the Bel radiative gravitational fields to the super-energy radiative gravitational fields defined by Garcia-Parrado (2008 ). We give an intrinsic characterization of the new radiative fields and consider some distinguished classes of both radiative and non-radiative fields. Several super-energy inequalities are improved.

title: An intrinsic characterization of the Kerr metric
abstract: We give the necessary and sufficient (local) conditions for a metric tensor to be the Kerr solution. These conditions exclusively involve explicit concomitants of the Riemann tensor.

title: Search for New Phenomena with the Monojet and Missing Transverse Momentum Signature Using the ATLAS Detector in $\sqrt{s}=7$ TeV Proton-Proton Collisions
abstract: A search for new phenomena in events featuring a high energy jet and large missing transverse momentum in proton-proton collisions at root s = 7 TeV is presented using a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 33 pb(-1) recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The number of observed events is consistent with the Standard Model prediction. This result is interpreted in terms of limits on a model of Large Extra Dimensions.

title: DISPred - a program to calculate deep inelastic scattering cross sections
abstract: A new package, DISPred, is described. The package can be used to calculate ep deep inelastic scattering cross sections at Born level in Electroweak theory and at both leading and next-to-leading order in QCD.

title: Boosted objects: a probe of beyond the standard model physics
abstract: We present the report of the hadronic working group of the BOOST2010 workshop held at the University of Oxford in June 2010. The first part contains a review of the potential of hadronic decays of highly boosted particles as an aid for discovery at the LHC and a discussion of the status of tools developed to meet the challenge of reconstructing and isolating these topologies. In the second part, we present new results comparing the performance of jet grooming techniques and top tagging algorithms on a common set of benchmark channels. We also study the sensitivity of jet substructure observables to the uncertainties in Monte Carlo predictions.

title: Inclusive-jet photoproduction at HERA and determination of alpha(s)
abstract: Inclusive-jet cross sections have been measured in the reaction e p → e + jet + X for photon virtuality Q 2 1 GeV 2 and γp centre-of-mass energies in the region 142 W γ p 293 GeV with the ZEUS detector at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 300 pb − 1 . Jets were identified using the k T , anti- k T or SIScone jet algorithms in the laboratory frame. Single-differential cross sections are presented as functions of the jet transverse energy, E T jet , and pseudorapidity, η jet , for jets with E T jet > 17 GeV and − 1 η jet 2.5 . In addition, measurements of double-differential inclusive-jet cross sections are presented as functions of E T jet in different regions of η jet . Next-to-leading-order QCD calculations give a good description of the measurements, except for jets with low E T jet and high η jet . The influence of non-perturbative effects not related to hadronisation was studied. Measurements of the ratios of cross sections using different jet algorithms are also presented; the measured ratios are well described by calculations including up to O ( α s 2 ) terms. Values of α s ( M Z ) were extracted from the measurements and the energy-scale dependence of the coupling was determined. The value of α s ( M Z ) extracted from the measurements based on the k T jet algorithm is α s ( M Z ) = 0.1206 − 0.0022 + 0.0023 ( exp . ) − 0.0035 + 0.0042 ( th . ) ; the results from the anti- k T and SIScone algorithms are compatible with this value and have a similar precision.

title: Measurement of upsilon production in 7 TeV pp collisions at ATLAS
abstract: Using 1.8  fb-1 of pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV recorded by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider, we present measurements of the production cross sections of Υ(1S,2S,3S) mesons. Υ mesons are reconstructed using the dimuon decay mode. Total production cross sections for pT<70  GeV and in the rapidity interval |yΥ|<2.25 are measured to be, 8.01±0.02±0.36±0.31  nb, 2.05±0.01±0.12±0.08  nb, and 0.92±0.01±0.07±0.04  nb, respectively, with uncertainties separated into statistical, systematic, and luminosity measurement effects. In addition, differential cross section times dimuon branching fractions for Υ(1S), Υ(2S), and Υ(3S) as a function of Υ transverse momentum pT and rapidity are presented. These cross sections are obtained assuming unpolarized production. If the production polarization is fully transverse or longitudinal with no azimuthal dependence in the helicity frame, the cross section may vary by approximately ±20%. If a nontrivial azimuthal dependence is considered, integrated cross sections may be significantly enhanced by a factor of 2 or more. We compare our results to several theoretical models of Υ meson production, finding that none provide an accurate description of our data over the full range of Υ transverse momenta accessible with this data set.
