Measurements of Top Quark Spin Observables in tt̅ Events Using Dilepton Final States in √s = 8 TeV PP Collisions with the ATLAS Detector
(Springer Verlag, 2018-09-12)
Measurements of top quark spin observables in tt¯ events are presented based on 20.2 fb−1 of s=8 TeV proton-proton collisions recorded with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The analysis is performed in the dilepton final ...
FACT Is a Sensor of DNA Torsional Stress in Eukaryotic Cells
(2018-09-24)
Transitions of B-DNA to alternative DNA structures (ADS) can be triggered by negative torsional strain, which occurs during replication and transcription, and may lead to genomic instability. However, how ADS are recognized ...
Novel Binder-Free Electrode Materials for Supercapacitors Utilizing High Surface Area Carbon Nanofibers Derived from Immiscible Polymer Blends of PBI/6FDA-DAM:DABA
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2018-06-01)
Carbon nanofibers with high surface area have become promising electrode materials for supercapacitors because of their importance in increasing energy density. In this study, a high free volume polymer, 6FDA-DAM:DABA ...
Bootstrap Quantification of Estimation Uncertainties in Network Degree Distributions
(Springer Nature, 2018-08-20)
We propose a new method of nonparametric bootstrap to quantify estimation uncertainties in functions of network degree distribution in large ultra sparse networks. Both network degree distribution and network order are ...
Tunable Organic PV Parallel Tandem with Ionic Gating
(Amer Inst Physics, 2018-10-22)
A novel type of tunable organic photovoltaic (OPV) tandem device with ionic gating by in-situ ionic liquid is presented. This device is comprised of two solution-processed polymeric OPV cells connected in parallel by a ...
Search for Electroweak Production of Supersymmetric Particles in Final States with Two or Three Leptons at √s = 13 TeV with the ATLAS Detector
(Springer New York Llc, 2018-12-05)
A search for the electroweak production of charginos, neutralinos and sleptons decaying into final states involving two or three electrons or muons is presented. The analysis is based on 36.1 fb⁻¹ of √s = 13 TeV proton– ...
Malware and Market Share
(Oxford University Press, 2018-12-26)
This article presents a game-theoretic model of the interaction between malware creators (hackers) and users. Users select and hackers target information technology platforms based upon each platform’s network externalities ...
An Experimental End-to-End Delay Study of a Sub-1GHz Wireless Sensor Network with LTE Backhaul
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018-12-09)
This paper describes an experimental study of network access delay from the end device to the cloud over a network based on Sub IGHz and LTE based network which may find many practical Internet of Things (IoT) applications ...
On the Samaritan's Dilemma, Foreign Aid, and Freedom
(MDPI Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2018-10-08)
This paper presents an extension of the two-period Samaritan's Dilemma in order to analyze the potential for foreign aid to promote freedom. An example is the United States' recent opening towards Cuba. It is shown that a ...
Relationship-Specific Investment and Hold-Up Problems in Supply Chains: Theory and Experiments
(Springer, 2018-07-20)
Supply chains today routinely use third parties for many strategic activities, such as manufacturing, R&D, or software development. These activities often include relationship-specific investment on the part of the vendor, ...
