Neutrino-nucleus neutral current elastic interactions measurement in MiniBooNE
… using an intense neutrino flux with an average energy of about 700 MeV. From 2002 to 2009 MiniBooNE has accumulated more than 1.0x10^{21} protons on target (POT) in both neutrino and antineutrino modes. MiniBooNE provides a perfect platform for detailed measurements of exclusive and …

First-Principles Study of Electronic Structure and Optical Properties of Semiconductor Surfaces Unified Approach for Exact Calculation of Coupling Coefficients of Quantum Angular Momenta
… coupled to a generic dissipative environment and driven by a periodic force which in the semiclassical limit is equivalent to a continuous-wave electromagnetic field. The time evolution is calculated via iterative evaluation of the path integral. We show that in the case where the temperature …

Mixing and Doubly Cabibbo -Suppressed Decays of Neutral Charmed Mesons
"A study of the decay D0 → K+pi-pi+pi - is presented. This ""wrong-sign"" decay can proceed through either a doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decay or mixing to a D¯0 followed by the Cabibbo-favored (or ""right-sign"") decay D0 → K-pi+pi-pi +. The Cabibbo-favored decay is used as a …

Studies of the Semileptonic Decays of D Mesons
… present new measurements of the branching ratios and decay distributions for the decays D+ → K¯ *0ℓ+nuℓ. We observe an asymmetry in the K¯*0 angular decay distribution that we interpret as evidence for a previously unobserved s-wave K-pi+ amplitude that interferes with the …

Scale of Fermion Mass Generation
… Lambda EWSB ≡ 8pv ≈ 1 TeV. Appelquist and Chanowitz have derived an analogous upper bound on the scale of fermion mass generation, proportional to v 2/mf, by considering the scattering of same-helicity fermions into pairs of longitudinal weak vector bosons in a theory without a standard …

Measurement of the Differential Angular Distribution of the W Boson Produced in Association With Jets in Proton -Antiproton Collisions at Center of Mass Energy = 1.8 TeV
We also present the Standard Model prediction for the W angular coefficients Ai as a function of pWT , using a W+jet Monte Carlo event generator, which includes gluon loops. The prediction for three of the angular coefficients (A1, A4 and A6) is presented for the first time.

Measurement of the CP Asymmetry in Semimuonic B Decays Produced in Proton-Antiproton Collisions at Center of Mass Energy= 1.96 TeV
We measure the asymmetry between positive and negative same-sign muon pairs originating from semileptonic decays of pairs of B hadrons. Low transverse momentum dimuon pairs are evaluated to determine B hadron content using a log likelihood fit to two-dimensional impact parameter significance …

On Extracting Hadron Multiplicities and Unpolarized Nucleon Structure Ratios From SIDIS Data at the HERMES Experiment
… of the HERA accelerator between the years 2000 and 2006. The hadron multiplicity from these scattering events is extracted for identified charged pions, kaons and protons from two different gaseous targets (H & D). For the hydrogen (deuterium) target 12.5 (16.68) million events were recorded. …

Determination of the Neutral B Meson and Neutral B(s) Meson Mixing Matrix Elements in 2+1 Lattice QCD
This report presents a calculation and results for the matrix elements relevant for the analysis of B0 -- B¯0 mixing using the Asqtad (light-quark) and Fermilab (heavy-quark) actions. The calculation is performed on the 2+1 MILC ensembles at three different lattice spacings, and uses staggered …
