    A depending on a complex parameter kk superanalog SL{\mathcal S}{\mathcal L} of Calogero operator is constructed; it is related with the root system of the Lie superalgebra gl(nm){\mathfrak{gl}}(n|m). For m=0m=0 we obtain the usual Calogero operator; for m=1m=1 we obtain, up to a change of indeterminates and parameter kk the operator constructed by Veselov, Chalykh and Feigin [2,3]. For k=1,12k=1, \frac12 the operator SL{\mathcal S}{\mathcal L} is the radial part of the 2nd order Laplace operator for the symmetric superspaces corresponding to pairs (GL(V)×GL(V),GL(V))(GL(V)\times GL(V), GL(V)) and (GL(V),OSp(V))(GL(V), OSp(V)), respectively. We will show that for the generic mm and nn the superanalogs of the Jack polynomials constructed by Kerov, Okunkov and Olshanskii [5] are eigenfunctions of SL{\mathcal S}{\mathcal L}; for k=1,12k=1, \frac12 they coinside with the spherical functions corresponding to the above mentioned symmetric superspaces. We also study the inner product induced by Berezin's integral on these superspaces

    La línea de trabajo sobre imagen en la cultura ibérica ha aportado a la arqueología ibérica excelentes resultados, tanto desde el punto de vista de la dinamización teórica de la disciplina, como en su aplicación concreta al estudio y la interpretación de determinados programas iconográficos en sus contextos arqueológicos (OLMOS 1992, 1996; ARANEGUI 1997, entre otros). Uno de los sujetos de investigación de especial relevancia de esta línea ha sido la religiosidad y sus diversas manifestaciones. En este sentido, los exvotos ibéricos labrados en caliza y bronce (RUIZ BREMÓN 1989a; PRADOS1992), sin olvidar aquellos elaborados en terracota, representan un material de estudio privilegiado

    Linking ecosystem services, urban form and green space configuration using multivariate landscape metric analysis

    Get PDF
    Context: Landscape metrics represent powerful tools for quantifying landscape structure, but uncertainties persist around their interpretation. Urban settings add unique considerations, containing habitat structures driven by the surrounding built-up environment. Understanding urban ecosystems, however, should focus on the habitats rather than the matrix. Objectives: We coupled a multivariate approach with landscape metric analysis to overcome existing shortcomings in interpretation. We then explored relationships between landscape characteristics and modelled ecosystem service provision. Methods: We used principal component analysis and cluster analysis to isolate the most effective measures of landscape variability and then grouped habitat patches according to their attributes, independent of the surrounding urban form. We compared results to the modelled provision of three ecosystem services. Seven classes resulting from cluster analysis were separated primarily on patch area, and secondarily by measures of shape complexity and inter-patch distance. Results: When compared to modelled ecosystem services, larger patches up to 10 ha in size consistently stored more carbon per area and supported more pollinators, while exhibiting a greater risk of soil erosion. Smaller, isolated patches showed the opposite, and patches larger than 10 ha exhibited no additional areal benefit. Conclusions: Multivariate landscape metric analysis offers greater confidence and consistency than analysing landscape metrics individually. Independent classification avoids the influence of the urban matrix surrounding habitats of interest, and allows patches to be grouped according to their own attributes. Such a grouping is useful as it may correlate more strongly with the characteristics of landscape structure that directly affect ecosystem function

    Single and multi-photon events with missing energy in e+ee^+ e^- collisions at 161 GeV < s\sqrt{s} < 172 GeV

    Get PDF
    A search for single and multi-photon events with missing energy is performed using data collected at centre-of-mass energies between 161 GeV and 172 GeV for a total of 20.9 pb1^{-1} of integrated luminosity. The results obtained are used to derive the value for the ννˉγ(γ)\nu\bar{\nu}\gamma(\gamma) cross section as well as upper limits on new physics processes

    Measurement of the Effective Weak Mixing Angle by Jet-Charge Asymmetry in Hadronic Decays of the Z Boson

    Get PDF
    The coupling of the Z boson to quarks is studied in a sample of about 3.5 million hadronic Z decays collected by the L3 experiment at LEP from 1991 to 1995. The forward-backward quark charge asymmet ry is measured by means of a jet charge technique. From the measured asymmetries, the effective weak mixing angle is determined to be \begin{center} $\STE = 0.2327 \pm 0.0012(\mbox{\emph{stat.}} ) \pm 0.0013(\mbox{\emph{syst.}

    Measurement of the Michel Parameters and the Average τ\tau-Neutrino Helicity from τ\tau Decays at LEP

    Get PDF
    Four of the Michel parameters and the average tau-neutrino helicity have been measured by analysing tau decay spectra in 147 \pb ~of data collected by the L3 detector. The decays \tte, ~\ttm, ~\ttp, ~\ttr ~and their charge conjugates were considered. The results: ρ=0.762±0.035\rho = 0.762 \pm 0.035, η=0.27±0.14\eta = 0.27 \pm 0.14, ξ=0.70±0.16\xi = 0.70 \pm 0.16, ξδ=0.70±0.11\xi\delta = 0.70 \pm0.11 and ξh=1.032±0.031\xi_{h} = -1.032 \pm 0.031 are consistent with a V-A structure for the weak charged current and lepton universality

    Study of the Weak Charged Hadronic Current in b Decays

    Get PDF
    Charged and neutral particle multiplicities of jets associated with identified semileptonic and hadronic b decays are studied. The observed differences between these jets are used to determine the inclusive properties of the weak charged hadronic current. The average charged particle multiplicity of the weak charged hadronic current in b decays is measured for the first time to be 2.69±\pm0.07(stat.)±\pm0.14(syst.). This result is in good agreement with the JETSET hadronization model of the weak charged hadronic current if 40±\pm17\% of the produced mesons are light--flavored tensor (L=1) mesons. This level of tensor meson production is consistent with the measurement of the π0\pi^0 multiplicity in the weak charged hadronic current in b decays. \end{abstract

    Local multiplicity fluctuations in hadronic Z decay

    Get PDF
    Local multiplicity fluctuations in hadronic Z decays are studied using the L3 detector at LEP. Bunching parameters are used for the first time in addition to the normalised factorial moment method. The bunching parameters directly demonstrate that the fluctuations in rapidity are multifractal. Monte Carlo models show overall agreement with the data, reproducing the trend, although not always the magnitude, of the factorial moments and bunching parameters

    Search for charged Higgs bosons in e+ee^+ e^- collisions at centre-of-mass energies between 130 and 183 GeV

    Get PDF
    A search for pair-produced charged Higgs bosons is performed with the L3 detector at LEP using data collected at centre-of-mass energies from \mbox{130 to 183 \GeV{}}, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 88.3 \pb. The Higgs decays into a charm and a strange quark or into a tau lepton and its associated neutrino are considered. The observed candidates are consistent with the expectations from Standard Model background processes. A lower limit of 57.5 \GeV{} on the charged Higgs mass is derived at 95\% CL, independent of the decay branching ratio \mathrm{Br(H^\pm\ra \tau\nu)}
