Molecular evidence for reticulate speciation in Astragalus (Fabaceae) as revealed by a case study from section Dissitiflori
Universal behaviour of ideal and interacting quantum gases in two dimensions
I discuss ideal and interacting quantum gases obeying general fractional
exclusion statistics. For systems with constant density of single-particle
states, described in the mean field approximation, the entropy depends neither
on the microscopic exclusion statistics, nor on the interaction. Such systems
are called {\em thermodynamically equivalent} and I show that the microscopic
reason for this equivalence is a one-to-one correspondence between the excited
states of these systems. This provides a method, different from the
bosonisation technique, to transform between systems of different exclusion
statistics. In the last section the macroscopic aspects of this method are
discussed.
In Appendix A I calculate the fluctuation of the ground state population of a
condensed Bose gas in grandcanonical ensemble and mean field approximation,
while in Appendix B I show a situation where although the system exhibits
fractional exclusion properties on microscopic energy intervals, a rigorous
calculation of the population of single particle states reveals a condensation
phenomenon. This also implies a malfunction of the usual and simplified
calculation technique of the most probable statistical distributions.Comment: About 14 journal pages, with 1 figure. Changes: Body of paper: same

Molecular Topology. 14. Molord Algorithm and Real Number Subgraph Invariants
An algorithm, MOLORD, is proposed for defining real number invariants
for subgraphs of various sizes in molecular graphs. The algorithm is
based on iterative line derivati ves and accounts for heteroatoms by means of their electronegativities. It can be used in topological equivalence perception as well as to provide local and global descriptors for QSPR or QSAR studies. The algorithm is implemented on a TURBO PASCAL, TOPIND program and examplified on a set of selected graphs
On the cohomology of tautological bundles over the Quot scheme of curves
We consider tautological bundles and their exterior and symmetric powers over
the Quot scheme of zero dimensional quotients over the projective line. We
prove several results regarding the vanishing of their higher cohomology, and
we describe the spaces of global sections via tautological constructions. To
this end, we make use of the embedding of the Quot scheme into the product of
two Grassmannians, which over the projective line was studied by Str{\o}mme as
an explicit local complete intersection. This allows us to construct
resolutions with vanishing cohomology for the tautological bundles and their
exterior and symmetric powers.Comment: 21 page
Differential cross section measurements for the production of a W boson in association with jets in proton–proton collisions at √s = 7 TeV
Measurements are reported of differential cross sections for the production of a W boson, which decays into a muon and a neutrino, in association with jets, as a function of several variables, including the transverse momenta (pT) and pseudorapidities of the four leading jets, the scalar sum of jet transverse momenta (HT), and the difference in azimuthal angle between the directions of each jet and the muon. The data sample of pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV was collected with the CMS detector at the LHC and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 5.0 fb[superscript −1]. The measured cross sections are compared to predictions from Monte Carlo generators, MadGraph + pythia and sherpa, and to next-to-leading-order calculations from BlackHat + sherpa. The differential cross sections are found to be in agreement with the predictions, apart from the pT distributions of the leading jets at high pT values, the distributions of the HT at high-HT and low jet multiplicity, and the distribution of the difference in azimuthal angle between the leading jet and the muon at low values.United States.

Measurement of the production cross section for pairs of isolated photons in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV
The integrated and differential cross sections for the production of pairs of isolated photons is measured in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV with the CMS detector at the LHC. A data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36 pb[superscript −1] is analysed. A next-to-leading-order perturbative QCD calculation is compared to the measurements. A discrepancy is observed for regions of the phase space where the two photons have an azimuthal angle difference Δφ ≲ 2.8 rad.United States.
