The evolution of the cluster optical galaxy luminosity function between z=0.4 and 0.9 in the DAFT/FADA survey

Nicolas Martinet, Florence Durret, Loic Guennou +8

We compute optical galaxy luminosity functions (GLFs) in the B, V, R, and I rest-frame bands for one of the largest medium-to-high-redshift (0.4 < z < 0.9) cluster samples to date…

The X-ray Flux Distribution of Sagittarius A* as Seen by Chandra

J. Neilsen, S. Markoff, M. A. Nowak +11

We present a statistical analysis of the X-ray flux distribution of Sgr A* from the Chandra X-ray Observatory's 3 Ms Sgr A* X-ray Visionary Project (XVP) in 2012. Our analysis indi…

Evaluation of defects in cuprous oxide through exciton luminescence imaging

Laszlo Frazer, Erik J. Lenferink, Kelvin B. Chang +3

The various decay mechanisms of excitons in cuprous oxide (Cu2O) are highly sensitive to defects which can relax selection rules. Here we report cryogenic hyperspectral imaging of…

Prediction and accelerated laboratory discovery of previously unknown 18-electron ABX compounds

Romain Gautier, Xiuwen Zhang, Linhua Hu +6

Chemists and material scientists have often focused on the properties of previously reported compounds, leaving out numerous unreported but chemically plausible compounds that coul…

On Semiparametric Exponential Family Graphical Models

Zhuoran Yang, Yang Ning, Han Liu

We propose a new class of semiparametric exponential family graphical models for the analysis of high dimensional mixed data. Different from the existing mixed graphical models, we…

Precise determination of the mass of the Higgs boson and tests of compatibility of its couplings with the standard model predictions using proton collisions at 7 and 8 TeV

CMS Collaboration

Properties of the Higgs boson with mass near 125 GeV are measured in proton-proton collisions with the CMS experiment at the LHC. Comprehensive sets of production and decay measure…

Search for physics beyond the standard model in dilepton mass spectra in proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 8 TeV

CMS Collaboration

Dimuon and dielectron mass spectra, obtained from data resulting from proton-proton collisions at 8 TeV and recorded by the CMS experiment, are used to search for both narrow reson…

Searches for continuous gravitational waves from nine young supernova remnants

J. Aasi, B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott +887

We describe directed searches for continuous gravitational waves in data from the sixth LIGO science data run. The targets were nine young supernova remnants not associated with pu…

Heavy Neutrinos and the Kinematics of Tau Decays

Andrew Kobach, Sean Dobbs

Searches for heavy neutrinos often rely on the possibility that the heavy neutrinos will decay to detectable particles. Interpreting the results of such searches requires a particu…

Tree- versus graph-level quasilocal Poincare duality on S^1

Theo Johnson-Freyd

Among its many corollaries, Poincare duality implies that the de Rham cohomology of a compact oriented manifold is a shifted commutative Frobenius algebra --- a commutative Frobeni…

Searches for supersymmetry based on events with b jets and four W bosons in pp collisions at 8 TeV

CMS Collaboration

Five mutually exclusive searches for supersymmetry are presented based on events in which b jets and four W bosons are produced in proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 8 TeV. The…

Secular dynamics of hierarchical quadruple systems: the case of a triple system orbited by a fourth body

Adrian S. Hamers, Hagai B. Perets, Fabio Antonini +1

We study the secular gravitational dynamics of quadruple systems consisting of a hierarchical triple system orbited by a fourth body. These systems can be decomposed into three bin…

A Minimally Symmetric Higgs Boson

Ian Low

Models addressing the naturalness of a light Higgs boson typically employ symmetries, either bosonic or fermionic, to stabilize the Higgs mass. We consider a setup with the minimal…
