Observed coupling between air mass history, secondary growth of nucleation mode particles and aerosol pollution levels in Beijing

Lubna Dada, Yu Fu, François Bianchi, Jingjing Jiang

Atmospheric aerosols have significant effects on the climate and on human health. New particle formation (NPF) is globally an important source of aerosols but its relevance especially towards aerosol mass loadings in highly polluted regions is still contro ...

GABA Signaling Promotes Synapse Elimination and Axon Pruning in Developing Cortical Inhibitory Interneurons

Graham Knott, Yu Fu

Accumulating evidence indicates that GABA acts beyond inhibitory synaptic transmission and regulates the development of inhibitory synapses in the vertebrate brain, but the underlying cellular mechanism is not well understood. We have combined live imaging ...

Measurement of the asymmetry in the decay Ω̄+→Λ̄K+→p̄π+K+

Yixing Chen, Yu Fu

The asymmetry in the p̄ angular distribution in the sequential decay Ω̄+→Λ̄K+→p̄π+K+ has been measured to be ᾱΩᾱΛ=[+1.16±0.18(stat)±0. 17(syst)]×10-2 using 1.89×106 unpolarized Ω̄+ decays recorded by the HyperCP (E871) experiment at Fermilab. Using the kno ...

Evidence for the decay ∑+ → pμ+ μ-

Yixing Chen, Yu Fu

We report the first evidence for the decay ∑+ → pμ+ μ- from data taken by the HyperCP (E871) experiment at Fermilab. Based on three observed events, the branching ratio is B(∑+ → pμ+ μ-) = [8.6 -5.4 +6.6(stat) ± 5.5(syst)] × 10 -8. The narrow range of dimu ...
