Using a data sample of 𝑒+𝑒− collisions corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 567 pb−1 collected at a center-of-mass energy of √𝑠=4.6 GeV with the BESIII detector, we measure the absolute branching fraction of the inclusive semileptonic Λ+𝑐 decay with a double-tag method. We obtain ℬ(Λ+𝑐→𝑋𝑒+𝜈𝑒)=(3.95±0.34±0.09)%, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. Using the known Λ+𝑐 lifetime and the charge-averaged semileptonic decay width of nonstrange charmed mesons (𝐷0 and 𝐷+), we obtain the ratio of the inclusive semileptonic decay widths Γ(Λ+𝑐→𝑋𝑒+𝜈𝑒)/¯Γ(𝐷→𝑋𝑒+𝜈𝑒)=1.26±0.12.
Using a data sample of 448.1×106 𝜓(3686) events collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII, we perform search for the hadronic transition ℎ𝑐→𝜋+𝜋−𝐽/𝜓 via 𝜓(3686)→𝜋0ℎ𝑐. No signals of the transition are observed, and the upper limit on the product branching fraction ℬ(𝜓(3686)→𝜋0ℎ𝑐)ℬ(ℎ𝑐→𝜋+𝜋−𝐽/𝜓) at the 90% confidence level (C.L.) is determined to be 2.0×10−6. This is the most stringent upper limit to date.
Die Jahrestagung 2015 der Gesellschaft für Comicforschung (ComFor) stand unter dem Thema »Geschichte im Comic – Geschichte des Comics«. Ein Blick in das damalige Programm (als LINK: http://www.comicgesellschaft.de/2015/ 07/23/programm-der-10-comfor-jahrestagungin-frankfurtm/) oder den mittlerweile erschienen Tagungsband (als LINK: http://www.christianbachmann.de/b_comfor7.html) offenbart, dass der zweite titelgebende Teil deutlich unterrepräsentiert war. Geplant war die Tagung auch als Gegengewicht zu den Theoriediskursen in der Comicforschung, d.h. zur Stärkung diachroner Arbeiten. Das Desiderat historischer Comicforschung blieb damit bestehen. Ein um weitere Beiträge ergänzter Band basierend auf den wenigen gehaltenen Vorträgen ist für 2018 angekündigt; bereits 2016 ist jedoch eine erfreulich große Anzahl an Publikationen mit teilweise historischen Fragestellungen erschienen. ...
We report the first measurements of absolute branching fractions for the W -exchange-only processes + c → 0K + and + c → (1530)0K + with the double-tag technique, by analyzing an e+e− collision data sample, that corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 567 pb−1 collected at a center-of-mass energy of 4.6 GeV by the BESIII detector. The branching fractions are measured to be B(+c → 0K +) = (5.90 ± 0.86 ± 0.39) × 10−3 and B(+c → (1530)0K +) = (5.02 ± 0.99 ± 0.31) × 10−3, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. Our results are more precise than the previous relative measurements.
Using a data sample of 448.1 × 106 ψ(3686) events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we report the first observation of the electromagnetic Dalitz decay ψ(3686) → η e+e−, with significances of 7.0σ and 6.3σ when reconstructing the η meson via its decay modes η → γπ+π− and η → π+π−η (η → γγ ), respectively. The weighted average branching fraction is determined to be B(ψ(3686) → η e+e−) = (1.90 ± 0.25 ± 0.11) × 10−6, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic.
How much we trust our own decisions, knowledge or perceptions influences our behavior in many everyday situations. Normally the confidence we have in our decisions is rather accurate, but under certain circumstances the subjective evaluation of a decision and its objective quality can differ heavily. Subjectively over- or underestimating the quality of decisions can lead to disadvantageous behavior. Little is known about how this feeling of confidence about a decision is generated. Is it computed automatically with the decision or does it arise in a different process?
This thesis is based on a publication that contributed to the investigation of this question by comparing the influence of two different forms of spatial attention on decision confidence. Visual spatial attention is a cognitive mechanism that serves to select parts of the visual field, leading to more accurate decisions about the attended items. It can be either voluntarily controlled (endogenous) or reflexively driven by external events (exogenous). In an orientation-matching task participants performed better in both attentional conditions than in a control condition without directed attention. Additionally, we found that only endogenous, but not exogenous attention led the subjects to overestimate the quality of their performance. The possible implications of this “relative overconfidence” were discussed with respect to the theoretical framework of spatial attention and decision confidence. The present findings support the idea that decision confidence is generated in a distinct metacognitive process. Possible ideas for further neurophysiological research are proposed. The thesis concludes with an attempt to integrate the discussion into a broader context of medical research on certain neuropsychiatric symptoms and conditions.
Background: Alternative splicing is a key mechanism in eukaryotic cells to increase the effective number of functionally distinct gene products. Using bulk RNA sequencing, splicing variation has been studied both across human tissues and in genetically diverse individuals. This has identified disease-relevant splicing events, as well as associations between splicing and genomic variations, including sequence composition and conservation. However, variability in splicing between single cells from the same tissue and its determinants remain poorly understood.
Results: We applied parallel DNA methylation and transcriptome sequencing to differentiating human induced pluripotent stem cells to characterize splicing variation (exon skipping) and its determinants. Our results shows that splicing rates in single cells can be accurately predicted based on sequence composition and other genomic features. We also identified a moderate but significant contribution from DNA methylation to splicing variation across cells. By combining sequence information and DNA methylation, we derived an accurate model (AUC=0.85) for predicting different splicing modes of individual cassette exons. These explain conventional inclusion and exclusion patterns, but also more subtle modes of cell-to-cell variation in splicing. Finally, we identified and characterized associations between DNA methylation and splicing changes during cell differentiation.
Conclusions: Our study yields new insights into alternative splicing at the single-cell level and reveals a previously underappreciated component of DNA methylation variation on splicing.

Using bulk RNA sequencing, splicing variation has been studied across human tissues and in genetically diverse populations.

Results: We applied parallel DNA methylation and transcriptome sequencing to differentiating human induced pluripotent stem cells to characterize splicing variation (exon skipping) and its determinants. Our results show that variation in single-cell splicing can be accurately predicted based on local sequence composition and genomic features. We observe moderate but consistent contributions from local DNA methylation profiles to splicing variation across cells. A combined model that is built based on genomic features as well as DNA methylation information accurately predicts different splicing modes of individual cassette exons. These categories include the conventional inclusion and exclusion patterns, but also more subtle modes of cell-to-cell variation in splicing. Finally, we identified and characterized associations between DNA methylation and splicing changes during cell differentiation.
Conclusions: Our study yields new insights into alternative splicing at the single-cell level and reveals a previously underappreciated link between DNA methylation variation and splicing.
b̄b̄ud tetraquark resonances in the Born-Oppenheimer approximation using lattice QCD potentials
(2018)
We study tetraquark resonances using lattice QCD potentials for a pair of static antiquarks b¯b¯ in the presence of two light quarks ud. The system is treated in the Born-Oppenheimer approximation and we use the emergent wave method. We focus on the isospin I=0 channel, but consider different orbital angular momenta l of the heavy antiquarks b¯b¯. We extract the phase shifts and search for S and T matrix poles on the second Riemann sheet. For orbital angular momentum l=1 we find a tetraquark resonance with quantum numbers I(JP)=0(1−), resonance mass m=10576+4−4MeV and decay width Γ=112+90−103MeV, which can decay into two B mesons.
The transversity distribution, which describes transversely polarized quarks in transversely polarized nucleons, is a fundamental component of the spin structure of the nucleon, and is only loosely constrained by global fits to existing semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering (SIDIS) data. In transversely polarized p↑+p collisions it can be accessed using transverse polarization dependent fragmentation functions which give rise to azimuthal correlations between the polarization of the struck parton and the final state scalar mesons.This letter reports on spin dependent di-hadron correlations measured by the STAR experiment. The new dataset corresponds to 25 pb−1 integrated luminosity of p↑+p collisions at s=500 GeV, an increase of more than a factor of ten compared to our previous measurement at s=200 GeV. Non-zero asymmetries sensitive to transversity are observed at a Q2 of several hundred GeV and are found to be consistent with the former measurement and a model calculation. We expect that these data will enable an extraction of transversity with comparable precision to current SIDIS datasets but at much higher momentum transfers where subleading effects are suppressed.
