On design strategies for binary dielectric metasurfaces based on the Fourier modal method

Binary dielectric metasurfaces are arrays of sub-wavelength structures that act as a thin layer of artificial material. They are generally lossless and relatively simple to fabricate since only a single structuring step is required. By carefully designing ...

Analysis of Resonances in Periodic Metasurfaces through the Concept of Self-Coupling Mode

Kévin Müller

The concept of self-coupling modes, which are eigen-vectors of the roundtrip matrix, is introduced. I investigate its use for the identification and analysis of the resonances taking place in periodic metasurfaces. It also improves the interpolation of the ...

Search for CP violation using triple product asymmetries in Lambda(0)(b) -> pK(-) pi(+) pi(-), Lambda(0)(b) -> pK(-) K+ K- and Xi(0)(b) -> pK(-) K- pi(+) decays

Olivier Schneider, Yiming Li, Guido Haefeli, Aurelio Bay, Frédéric Blanc, Tatsuya Nakada, Michel De Cian, Christoph Frei, Luca Pescatore, Elena Graverini

A search for CP and P violation using triple- product asymmetries is performed with Lambda(0)(b) -> pK(-) pi(+) pi(-), Lambda(0)(b) -> pK(-) K+ K- and Xi(0)(b) -> pK(-) K- pi(+) decays. The data sample corresponds to integrated luminosities of 1.0 fb(-1) a ...

First Observation of the Doubly Charmed Baryon Decay Xi(++)(cc) -> Xi(+)(c)pi(+)

Olivier Schneider, Christoph Frei, Aurelio Bay, Tatsuya Nakada, Frédéric Blanc, Michel De Cian, Luca Pescatore, François Fleuret, Chitsanu Khurewathanakul, Alessio Ferrari

The doubly charmed baryon decay Xi(++)(cc) -> Xi(+)(c)pi(+) is observed for the first time, with a statistical significance of 5.9 sigma, confirming a recent observation of the baryon in the Lambda K-+(c)-pi(+)pi(+) final state. The data sample used corres ...
