A local Monte Carlo framework for coherent QCD parton energy loss

Monte Carlo (MC) simulations are the standard tool for describing jet-like multi-particle final states. To apply them to the simulation of medium-modified jets in heavy ion collisions, a probabilistic implementation of medium-induced quantum interference effects is needed. Here, we analyze in detail how the quantum interference effects included in the Baier-Dokshitzer-Mueller-Peigné-Schiff–Zakharo

The SM and NLO Multileg and SM MC Working Groups: Summary Report

The 2011 Les Houches workshop was the first to confront LHC data. In the two years since the previous workshop there have been significant advances in both soft and hard QCD, particularly in the areas of multi-leg NLO calculations, the inclusion of those NLO calculations into parton shower Monte Carlos, and the tuning of the non-perturbative parameters of those Monte Carlos. These proceedings desc

The GALAH survey : The data reduction pipeline

We present the data reduction procedures being used by the GALactic Archeology with Hermes (GALAH) survey, carried out with the HERMES fibre-fed, multi-object spectrograph on the 3.9-m Anglo-Australian Telescope. GALAH is a unique survey, targeting 1 million stars brighter than magnitude V = 14 at a resolution of 28 000 with a goal to measure the abundances of 29 elements. Such a large number of h

The article is devoted to the concept of "conflict of interest." The author reveals the content of this concept, referring to the relevant international acts and legislation of the Republic of Uzbekistan, considers the main causes of the conflict of interest and puts forward a proposal regarding measures to prevent conflict of interest.

The GALAH Survey : Second data release

The Galactic Archaeology with HERMES (GALAH) survey is a large-scale stellar spectroscopic survey of theMilkyWay, designed to deliver complementary chemical information to a large number of stars covered by the Gaia mission. We present the GALAH second public data release (GALAH DR2) containing 342 682 stars. For these stars, the GALAH collaboration provides stellar parameters and abundances for

Autism spectrum disorders in the Stockholm Youth Cohort : design, prevalence and validity

OBJECTIVE: Reports of rising prevalence of autism spectrum disorders (ASD), along with their profound personal and societal burden, emphasize the need of methodologically sound studies to explore their causes and consequences. We here present the design of a large intergenerational resource for ASD research, along with population-based prevalence estimates of ASD and their diagnostic validity.METH

Bacterial Adherence and Epithelial Cell Cytokine Production

Epithelial cell lines produce the cytokines IL-1α, IL-6 and IL-8 when stimulated with Escherichia coli. The cytokine response is enhanced by P fimbriae. The epithelial cell lines also respond to stimulation with other cytokines. These in vitro findings were confirmed in vivo in patients with E. coli infection who secreted IL-6 and IL-8 into the urine. The observations suggest that epithelial cells

Merging NLO Multi-jet Calculations with Improved Unitarization

We present an algorithm to combine multiple matrix elements at LO and NLO with a parton shower. We build on the unitarized merging paradigm. The inclusion of higher orders and multiplicities reduce the scale uncertainties for observables sensitive to hard emissions, while preserving the features of inclusive quantities. The combination allows further soft and collinear emissions to be predicted by

Beta-sheet-specific interactions with heat shock proteins define a mechanism of delayed tumor cell death in response to HAMLET

As chaperones, heat shock proteins (HSPs)protect host cells against misfolded proteins that constitute a by-product of protein synthesis. Certain HSPs are also expressed on the surface of tumor cells, possibly to scavenge extracellular unfolded protein ligands and prevent them from becoming cytotoxic. HAMLET—a complex of partially unfolded alpha-lactalbumin and oleic acid—is relying on its N-termi
