Search for ηc (2S) → p(p)over-bar and branching fraction measurements of χcJ → p(p)over-bar via ψ(2S) radiative decays

Using (27.12 +/- 0.14) x 10(8) psi(2S) events collected by the BESIII detector operating at BEPCII, we search for the decay eta(c) (2S) -> p (p) over bar via the process psi(2S) -> gamma eta(c)(2S) and only find a signal with a significance of 1.7 sigma. T ...

Transport coefficients from equilibrium molecular dynamics

Paolo Pegolo

The determination of transport coefficients through the time-honored Green-Kubo theory of linear response and equilibrium molecular dynamics requires significantly longer simulation times than those of equilibrium properties while being further hindered by ...

Euclid preparation: XXXV. Covariance model validation for the two-point correlation function of galaxy clusters

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan

Aims. We validate a semi-analytical model for the covariance of the real-space two-point correlation function of galaxy clusters. Methods. Using 1000 PINOCCHIO light cones mimicking the expected Euclid sample of galaxy clusters, we calibrated a simple mode ...

Euclid preparation XV. Forecasting cosmological constraints for the Euclid and CMB joint analysis

Georges Meylan

The combination and cross-correlation of the upcoming Euclid data with cosmic microwave background (CMB) measurements is a source of great expectation since it will provide the largest lever arm of epochs, ranging from recombination to structure formation ...

Euclid: Fast two-point correlation function covariance through linear construction

Georges Meylan

We present a method for fast evaluation of the covariance matrix for a two-point galaxy correlation function (2PCF) measured with the Landy-Szalay estimator. The standard way of evaluating the covariance matrix consists in running the estimator on a large ...

Euclid: Covariance of weak lensing pseudo-C-l estimates Calculation, comparison to simulations, and dependence on survey geometry

Georges Meylan

An accurate covariance matrix is essential for obtaining reliable cosmological results when using a Gaussian likelihood. In this paper we study the covariance of pseudo-C-l estimates of tomographic cosmic shear power spectra. Using two existing publicly av ...

Interpreting null models of resting-state functional MRI dynamics: not throwing the model out with the hypothesis

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Raphaël Pierre Liégeois

Null models are useful for assessing whether a dataset exhibits a non-trivial property of interest. These models have recently gained interest in the neuroimaging community as means to explore dynamic properties of functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fM ...

Statistical Fatigue Investigation and Failure Prediction of a Healable Composite System

Nathan Klaus Hostettler, Véronique Michaud, Amaël Maximilien Cohades

Fiber reinforced polymers are massively used as an alternative to metals in structural applications. The brittle nature of their matrix, however, makes them more susceptible to crack formation and propagation resulting in costly repair operations and incre ...

Euclid preparation V. Predicted yield of redshift 7 < z < 9 quasars from the wide survey

Yi Wang, Georges Meylan

We provide predictions of the yield of 7 < z < 9 quasars from the Euclid wide survey, updating the calculation presented in the Euclid Red Book in several ways. We account for revisions to the Euclid near-infrared filter wavelengths; we adopt steeper rates ...

Non-contact femtosecond laser-based methods for investigating glass mechanics at small scales

Christos Edouardos Athanasiou

With the progress made in miniaturizing systems over the last decades, understanding materialsâ behavior at small scales has become a necessity. In this context, glass behavior has remained largely unknown, partly for technological reasons and partly due ...

On the relationship between total ozone and atmospheric dynamics and chemistry at mid-latitudes - Part 1: Statistical models and spatial fingerprints of atmospheric dynamics and chemistry

Anthony Christopher Davison, Linda Frossard

We use statistical models for mean and extreme values of total column ozone to analyze "fingerprints" of atmospheric dynamics and chemistry on long-term ozone changes at northern and southern mid-latitudes on grid cell basis. At each grid cell, the r-large ...
