Synthesis and Structural Characterization of Nanomanganese Ferrites

In this paper, the structural properties of nano manganese ferrite are synthesized by using environmental friendly co-precipitation method is reported. The structural parameters such as the lattice constant, average crystallite size (D), texture coefficients (TC), lattice strain (ε) and dislocation density (ρ) have been determined using X-ray diffraction data

The Eccentric-distance Sum of Some Graphs

Let $G = (V,E)$ be a simple connected graph. Theeccentric-distance sum of $G$ is defined as\xi^{ds}(G) =\ds\sum_{\{u,v\}\subseteq V(G)} [e(u)+e(v)] d(u,v), where $e(u)$ %\dsis the eccentricity of the vertex $u$ in $G$ and $d(u,v)$ is thedistance between $u$ and $v$. In this paper, we establish formulaeto calculate the eccentric-distance sum for some graphs, namelywheel, star, broom, lollipop, double star, friendship, multi-stargraph and the join of $P_{n-2}$ and $P_2$

Response of Ag Thick Film Microstripline due to Superstrate Strontium Substituted Bismuth Manganites

The purpose of this paper is to describe the use of strontium-substituted bismuth manganites bulk ceramic superstrate on Ag thick film microstripline, to modify its response and measure complex permittivity as a function of strontium. Bismuth strontium manganites (Bi1 − xSrxMnO3) have been synthesized by solid state sintering technique. The perturbation obtained in the transmittance and reflectance of thick film microstripline due to the Bi1 − xSrxMnO3 (0.20 x 0.50) overlay has been used to obtain the permittivity at microwave frequencies in X and Ku band range. Due to the overlay of Bismuth strontium manganites (BSM) pellets a substantial increase in the effective dielectric constant was observed in X band more compared to Ku band. The in-touch overlay method provides ease loading and unloading. The perturbation obtained in the transmittance and reflectance of thick film microstripline due to the bismuth strontium manganites overlay has been used to obtain the permittivity.

Study of prompt D0 meson production in pPb collisions at sNN=5 TeV

Production of prompt D0 mesons is studied in proton-lead and lead-proton collisions recorded at the LHCb detector at the LHC. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 1.58±0.02 nb−1 recorded at a nucleon-nucleon centre-of-mass energy of sNN=5 TeV. Measurements of the differential cross-section, the forward-backward production ratio and the nuclear modification factor are reported using D0 candidates with transverse momenta less than 10 GeV/c and rapidities in the ranges 1.5 < y∗< 4.0 and −5.0 < y∗< −2.5 in the nucleon-nucleon centre-of-mass system

Measurement of the CP violation parameter A_{Γ} in D^{0}→K^{+}K^{-} and D^{0}→π^{+}π^{-} decays

Asymmetries in the time-dependent rates of D^{0}→K^{+}K^{-} and D^{0}→π^{+}π^{-} decays are measured in a pp collision data sample collected with the LHCb detector during LHC Run 1, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3  fb^{-1}. The asymmetries in effective decay widths between D^{0} and D[over ¯]^{0} decays, sensitive to indirect CP violation, are measured to be A_{Γ}(K^{+}K^{-})=(-0.30±0.32±0.10)×10^{-3} and A_{Γ}(π^{+}π^{-})=(0.46±0.58±0.12)×10^{-3}, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. These measurements show no evidence for CP violation and improve on the precision of the previous best measurements by nearly a factor of two

BB flavour tagging using charm decays at the LHCb experiment

An algorithm is described for tagging the flavour content at production of neutral $B$ mesons in the LHCb experiment. The algorithm exploits the correlation of the flavour of a $B$ meson with the charge of a reconstructed secondary charm hadron from the decay of the other $b$ hadron produced in the proton-proton collision. Charm hadron candidates are identified in a number of fully or partially reconstructed Cabibbo-favoured decay modes. The algorithm is calibrated on the self-tagged decay modes $B^+ \to J/\psi \, K^+$ and $B^0 \to J/\psi \, K^{*0}$ using $3.0\mathrm{\,fb}^{-1}$ of data collected by the LHCb experiment at $pp$ centre-of-mass energies of $7\mathrm{\,TeV}$ and $8\mathrm{\,TeV}$. Its tagging power on these samples of $B \to J/\psi \, X$ decays is $(0.30 \pm 0.01 \pm 0.01) \%$.Comment: All figures and tables, along with any supplementary material and additional information, are available at http://lhcbproject.web.cern.ch/lhcbproject/Publications/LHCbProjectPublic/LHCb-PAPER-2015-027.htm
