The observation of the electroweak production of single-top-quarks is made using 255 pb−1 of proton-proton collision data recorded at s=5.02 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. An event selection is used to identify single-top-quark candidates arising from t-channel production with the top quark decaying semi-leptonically. Events passing the selection are then used to measure
Purpose: Tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) fusions are detected in less than 2% of central nervous system tumors. There are limited data on the clinical course of affected patients. Experimental Design: We conducted an international retrospective cohort study of patients with TRK fusion–driven central nervous system tumors. Results: A total of 119 patients were identified. The median age at the ti
This thesis examines how cultural distance and institutional distance are associated with the ownership stakes acquired by US firms in cross-border acquisitions. Drawing on international business theory, two hypotheses were developed, proposing that greater cultural distance and institutional distance lead to lower post-acquisition ownership stakes. Applying a quantitative deductive research desig
As one of the United Nations’ specialized agencies UNESCO encourages countries to further development in regard to preserve culture, education and science. These obligations are fixed within frameworks. To fulfil the 2005 Convention on the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions(CoCE), countries should report cultural policies and measures to UNESCO. Despite these reporti
Fredrik Værslev’s work, seen recently at the National Museum in Oslo, explores how painting can evoke familiar imagery—sunsets, flags, curtains, windows—without representing them directly. His polyptych Untitled (Sunset 1) suggests the experience of a sunset through horizontal lines and color transitions, rather than literal depiction.His flag series, focused on the Portuguese flag, reflects on th
This paper presents a search for supersymmetric particles in models with highly compressed mass spectra, in events consistent with being produced through vector boson fusion. The search uses 140 fb−1 of proton-proton collision data at s = 13 TeV collected by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. Events containing at least two jets with a large gap in pseudorapidity, large missing tran
Background: The optimal timing of anticoagulation for patients with acute ischaemic stoke with atrial fibrillation is uncertain. We investigated the efficacy and safety of early compared with delayed initiation of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) in patients with acute ischaemic stroke associated with atrial fibrillation. Methods: We performed a multicentre, open-label, blinded-endpoint, paralle
This paper presents the electron and photon energy calibration obtained with the ATLAS detector using 140 fb−1 of LHC proton-proton collision data recorded at √s = 13 TeV between 2015 and 2018. Methods for the measurement of electron and photon energies are outlined, along with the current knowledge of the passive material in front of the ATLAS electromagnetic calorimeter. The energy calibration s
A fundamental framework to describe nuclear matter as a function of pressure and nuclear isospin asymmetry is the nuclear Equation of State (EoS). Constraining the parameters of the EoS is one of the central issues in nuclear physics, especially since the slope parameter L has not yet been constrained well experimentally. It has been identified that a precise determination of the neutron-removal c
Biomass is often viewed as a primitive source of energy that needs to be modernized. However, itis unlikely that preferred modern energy sources will displace traditional biomass-based energyin the near term, especially in rural Africa and southeast Asia (FAO 2017). Demand for sustainablysourced biomass is likely to increase as the world moves away from fossil fuel dependence andtransitions to sus
This paper presents a search for pair production of higgsinos, the supersymmetric partners of the Higgs bosons, in scenarios with gauge-mediated supersymmetry breaking. Each higgsino is assumed to decay into a Higgs boson and a nearly massless gravitino. The search targets events where each Higgs boson decays into Formula Presented, leading to a reconstructed final state with at least three energe
A search is performed for localized excesses in the low-mass dijet invariant mass distribution, targeting a hypothetical new particle decaying into two jets and produced in association with either a high transverse momentum photon or a jet. The search uses the full Run 2 data sample from LHC proton-proton collisions collected by the ATLAS experiment at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV during 2015
A search for radiative decay of Bs0 mesons to orbitally excited K+K− states is performed using proton proton collisions recorded by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb−1. The dikaon spectrum in the mass range mKK < 2400 MeV/c2 is dominated by the ϕ(1020) resonance that accounts for almost 70% of the decay rate. Considering the possible contributions of f2(1270),
Background: Gaming disorder (GD) is a new official diagnosis in the International Classification of Diseases, 11th Revision, and with its recognition, the need to offer treatment for the condition has become apparent. More knowledge is needed about the type of treatment needed for this group of patients. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and acceptability of a novel module-b
The ALICE Collaboration reports a search for jet quenching effects in high-multiplicity (HM) proton-proton collisions at s = 13 TeV, using the semi-inclusive azimuthal-difference distribution ∆φ of charged-particle jets recoiling from a high transverse momentum (high-pT,trig) trigger hadron. Jet quenching may broaden the ∆φ distribution measured in HM events compared to that in minimum bias (MB) e
The azimuthal anisotropy of particles associated with jets (jet particles) at midrapidity is measured for the first time in p-Pb and Pb-Pb collisions at sNN = 5.02 TeV down to transverse momentum (pT) of 0.5 GeV/c and 2 GeV/c, respectively, with ALICE. The results obtained in p-Pb collisions are based on a novel three-particle correlation technique. The azimuthal anisotropy coefficient v2 in high-
