Measurements of azimuthal anisotropy of nonprompt D0 mesons in PbPb collisions at √sNN=5.02 TeV

Matthias Finger, Konstantin Androsov, Qian Wang, Jan Steggemann, Yiming Li, Anna Mascellani, Varun Sharma, Xin Chen, Rakesh Chawla, Matteo Galli

Measurements of the elliptic (v(2)) and triangular (v(3)) azimuthal anisotropy coefficients are presented for D-0 mesons produced in b hadron decays (nonprompt D-0 mesons) in lead-lead collisions at root s(NN) = 5.02 TeV. The results are compared with prev ...

Reactor simulations with nuclear data uncertainties

Andreas Pautz, Winfried Zwermann, Friederike Bostelmann, Alexander Aures

The paper demonstrates the influence of uncertainties in microscopic nuclear data on the results of reactor simulations, both for stationary and transient states. It gives an overview on the methods in use for uncertainty and sensitivity analyses with resp ...

Unstable Slip Pulses and Earthquake Nucleation as a Nonequilibrium First-Order Phase Transition

Jean-François Molinari, Fabian Barras

The onset of rapid slip along initially quiescent frictional interfaces, the process of “earthquake nucleation,” and dissipative spatiotemporal slippage dynamics play important roles in a broad range of physical systems. Here we first show that interfaces ...

Investigation of spatial effects on neutron noise measurements in the zero power reactor CROCUS

Andreas Pautz, Vincent Pierre Lamirand, Oskari Ville Pakari, Mathieu Hursin, Pavel Frajtag, Daniel Godat

This article presents the results of an experimental campaign in the CROCUS zero power reactor aimed at investigating the spatial effects of neutron noise measurements. Neutron noise measurements offer a non-invasive method to determine kinetic reactor par ...

Alterations in Postural Control during the World's Most Challenging Mountain Ultra-Marathon

Jérôme Sébastien Van Zaen

We investigated postural control (PC) effects of a mountain ultra-marathon (MUM): a 330-km trail run with 24000 m of positive and negative change in elevation. PC was assessed prior to (PRE), during (MID) and after (POST) the MUM in experienced ultra-marat ...

Fast Crystallization of the Phase Change Compound GeTe by Large-Scale Molecular Dynamics Simulations

Giacomo Francesco Leonardo Miceli, Federico Giberti

Phase change materials are of great interest as active layers in rewritable optical disks and novel electronic nonvolatile memories. These applications rest on a fast and reversible transformation between the amorphous and crystalline phases upon heating, ...

Prompt K-S(0) production in pp collisions at root s=0.9 TeV

Olivier Schneider, Yiming Li, Aurelio Bay, Guido Haefeli, Frédéric Blanc, Christoph Frei, Tatsuya Nakada, Julien Rouvinet, Barinjaka Rakotomiaramanana, Raluca Anca Muresan

The production of K-S(0) mesons in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 0.9 TeV is studied with the LHCb detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The luminosity of the analysed sample is determined using a novel technique, involving measurements of th ...
