The first study of ϕ-meson production in p–Pb collisions at forward and backward rapidity, at a nucleon–nucleon centre-of-mass energy √sNN=5.02 TeV, has been performed with the ALICE apparatus at the LHC. The ϕ-mesons have been identified in the dimuon decay channel in the transverse momentum (pT) range 1<pT<7 GeV/c, both in the p-going (2.03<y<3.53) and the Pb-going (−4.46<y<−2.96) directions — where y stands for the rapidity in the nucleon–nucleon centre-of-mass — the integrated luminosity amounting to 5.01±0.19 nb−1 and 5.81±0.20 nb−1, respectively, for the two data samples. Differential cross sections as a function of transverse momentum and rapidity are presented. The forward–backward ratio for ϕ-meson production is measured for 2.96<|y|<3.53, resulting in a ratio ∼0.5 with no significant pT dependence within the uncertainties. The pT dependence of the ϕ nuclear modification factor RpPb exhibits an enhancement up to a factor 1.6 at pT=3–4 GeV/c in the Pb-going direction. The pT dependence of the ϕ-meson cross section in pp collisions at √s=2.76 TeV, which is used to determine a reference for the p–Pb results, is also presented here for 1<pT<5 GeV/c and 2.5<y<4, for a 78±3 nb−1 integrated luminosity sample.
Inclusive Υ(1S) and Υ(2S) production have been measured in Pb-Pb collisions at the centre-of-mass energy per nucleon-nucleon pair sNN−−−√=5.02 TeV, using the ALICE detector at the CERN LHC. The Υ mesons are reconstructed in the centre-of-mass rapidity interval 2.5<y<4 and in the transverse-momentum range pT<15 GeV/c, via their decays to muon pairs. In this Letter, we present results on the inclusive Υ(1S) nuclear modification factor RAA as a function of collision centrality, transverse momentum and rapidity. The Υ(1S) and Υ(2S) RAA, integrated over the centrality range 0-90%, are 0.37±0.02(stat)±0.03(syst) and 0.10±0.04(stat)±0.02(syst), respectively, leading to a ratio RΥ(2S)AA/RΥ(1S)AA of 0.28±0.12(stat)±0.06(syst). The observed Υ(1S) suppression increases with the centrality of the collision and no significant variation is observed as a function of transverse momentum and rapidity.

Υ production in p-Pb interactions is studied at the centre-of-mass energy per nucleon-nucleon collision sNN−−−√ = 8.16 TeV with the ALICE detector at the CERN LHC. The measurement is performed reconstructing bottomonium resonances via their dimuon decay channel, in the centre-of-mass rapidity intervals 2.03<ycms<3.53 and −4.46<ycms<−2.96, down to zero transverse momentum. In this work, results on the inclusive Υ(1S) production cross section as a function of rapidity and transverse momentum are presented. The corresponding nuclear modification factor shows a suppression of the Υ(1S) yields with respect to pp collisions, both at forward and backward rapidity. This suppression is stronger in the low transverse momentum region and shows no significant dependence on the centrality of the interactions. Furthermore, the Υ(2S) nuclear modification factor is also evaluated, suggesting a suppression similar to that of the Υ(1S). A first measurement of the Υ(3S) has also been performed. Finally, results are compared with previous measurements performed by ALICE in p-Pb collisions at sNN−−−√ = 5.02 TeV and with theoretical calculations.

ϒ production and nuclear modification at forward rapidity in Pb–Pb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV

The production of Υ mesons in Pb-Pb collisions at a centre-of-mass energy per nucleon pair sNN−−−√ = 5 TeV is measured with the muon spectrometer of the ALICE detector at the LHC. The yields as well as the nuclear modification factors are determined in the forward rapidity region 2.5<y<4.0, as a function of rapidity, transverse momentum and collision centrality. The results show that the production of the Υ(1S) meson is suppressed by a factor of about three with respect to the production in proton-proton collisions. For the first time, a significant signal for the Υ(2S) meson is observed at forward rapidity, indicating a suppression stronger by about a factor 2-3 with respect to the ground state. The measurements are compared with transport, hydrodynamic, comover and statistical hadronisation model calculations.

ϕ meson measurements provide insight into strangeness production, which is one of the key observables for the hot medium formed in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. ALICE measured ϕ production through its decay in muon pairs in Pb-Pb collisions at sNN−−−√ = 2.76 TeV in the intermediate transverse momentum range 2<pT<5 GeV/c and in the rapidity interval 2.5<y<4. The ϕ yield was measured as a function of the transverse momentum and collision centrality. The nuclear modification factor was obtained as a function of the average number of participating nucleons. Results were compared with the ones obtained via the kaon decay channel in the same pT range at midrapidity. The values of the nuclear modification factor in the two rapidity regions are in agreement within uncertainties.

Hadronic resonances are used to probe the hadron gas produced in the late stage of heavy-ion collisions since they decay on the same timescale, of the order of 1 to 10 fm/c, as the decoupling time of the system. In the hadron gas, (pseudo)elastic scatterings among the products of resonances that decayed before the kinetic freeze-out and regeneration processes counteract each other, the net effect depending on the resonance lifetime, the duration of the hadronic phase, and the hadronic cross sections at play. In this context, the Σ(1385)± particle is of particular interest as models predict that regeneration dominates over rescattering despite its relatively short lifetime of about 5.5 fm/c. The first measurement of the Σ(1385)± resonance production at midrapidity in Pb-Pb collisions at sNN−−−√=5.02 TeV with the ALICE detector is presented in this Letter. The resonances are reconstructed via their hadronic decay channel, Λπ, as a function of the transverse momentum (pT) and the collision centrality. The results are discussed in comparison with the measured yield of pions and with expectations from the statistical hadronization model as well as commonly employed event generators, including PYTHIA8/Angantyr and EPOS3 coupled to the UrQMD hadronic cascade afterburner. None of the models can describe the data. For Σ(1385)±, a similar behaviour as K∗(892)0 is observed in data unlike the predictions of EPOS3 with afterburner.

An invariant differential cross section measurement of inclusive π0 and η meson production at mid-rapidity in pp collisions at s√=8 TeV was carried out by the ALICE experiment at the LHC. The spectra of neutral mesons π0 and η were measured in transverse momentum ranges of 0.3<pT<35 GeV/c and 0.5<pT<35 GeV/c, respectively. Next-to-leading order perturbative QCD calculations using fragmentation functions DSS14 for π0 and AESSS for η overestimate the cross sections of both neutral mesons, but agree with the measured η/π0 ratio within uncertainties. The results are also compared with PYTHIA~8.2 predictions for which the Monash~2013 tune yields the best agreement with the measured neutral meson spectra. The measurements confirm a universal behavior of the η/π0 ratio seen for NA27, PHENIX and ALICE data for pp collisions from s√=27.5 GeV to s√=8 TeV within experimental uncertainties. A relation between the π0 and η production cross sections for pp collisions at s√=8 TeV is given by mT scaling for pT>3.5 GeV/c. However, a deviation from this empirical scaling law is observed for transverse momenta below pT<3.5 GeV/c in the η/π0 ratio with a significance of 6.2σ.

The measurements confirm a universal behavior of the η/π0 ratio seen for NA27, PHENIX and ALICE data for pp collisions from s√=27.5 GeV to s√=8 TeV within experimental uncertainties. A relation between the π0 and η production cross sections for pp collisions at s√=8 TeV is given by mT scaling for pT>3.5 GeV/c. However, a deviation from this empirical scaling rule is observed for transverse momenta below pT<3.5 GeV/c in the η/π0 ratio with a significance of 6.2σ.
The first measurements of the scattering parameters of ΛK pairs in all three charge combinations (ΛK+, ΛK−, and ΛK0S) are presented. The results are achieved through a femtoscopic analysis of ΛK correlations in Pb-Pb collisions at sNN−−−√ = 2.76 TeV recorded by ALICE at the LHC. The femtoscopic correlations result from strong final-state interactions, and are fit with a parametrization allowing for both the characterization of the pair emission source and the measurement of the scattering parameters for the particle pairs. Extensive studies with the THERMINATOR 2 event generator provide a good description of the non-femtoscopic background, which results mainly from collective effects, with unprecedented precision. Furthermore, together with HIJING simulations, this model is used to account for contributions from residual correlations induced by feed-down from particle decays. The extracted scattering parameters indicate that the strong force is repulsive in the ΛK+ interaction and attractive in the ΛK− interaction. The data hint that the and ΛK0S interaction is attractive, however the uncertainty of the result does not permit such a decisive conclusion. The results suggest an effect arising either from different quark-antiquark interactions between the pairs (ss¯ in ΛK+ and uu¯¯¯ in ΛK−) or from different net strangeness for each system (S = 0 for ΛK+, and S = −2 for ΛK−). Finally, the ΛK systems exhibit source radii larger than expected from extrapolation from identical particle femtoscopic studies. This effect is interpreted as resulting from the separation in space-time of the single-particle Λ and K source distributions.

The pT-differential production cross section of prompt Λ+c charmed baryons was measured with the ALICE detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in pp collisions at s√=7 TeV and in p-Pb collisions at sNN−−−√=5.02 TeV at midrapidity. The Λ+c and Λ¯¯¯¯−c were reconstructed in the hadronic decay modes Λ+c→pK−π+, Λ+c→pK0S and in the semileptonic channel Λ+c→e+νeΛ (and charge conjugates). The measured values of the Λ+c/D0 ratio, which is sensitive to the c-quark hadronisation mechanism, and in particular to the production of baryons, are presented and are larger than those measured previously in different colliding systems, centre-of-mass energies, rapidity and pT intervals, where the Λ+c production process may differ. The results are compared with the expectations obtained from perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics calculations and Monte Carlo event generators. Neither perturbative QCD calculations nor Monte Carlo models reproduce the data, indicating that the fragmentation of heavy-flavour baryons is not well understood. The first measurement at the LHC of the Λ+c nuclear modification factor, RpPb, is also presented. The RpPb is found to be consistent with unity and with that of D mesons within the uncertainties, and consistent with a theoretical calculation that includes cold nuclear matter effects and a calculation that includes charm quark interactions with a deconfined medium.

A measurement of the production of prompt Λ+c baryons in Pb-Pb collisions at sNN−−−√=5.02 TeV with the ALICE detector at the LHC is reported. The Λ+c and Λ¯¯¯¯−c were reconstructed at midrapidity (|y|<0.5) via the hadronic decay channel Λ+c→pK0S (and charge conjugate) in the transverse momentum and centrality intervals 6<pT<12 GeV/c and 0-80%. The Λ+c/D0 ratio, which is sensitive to the charm quark hadronisation mechanisms in the medium, is measured and found to be larger than the ratio measured in minimum-bias pp collisions at s√=7 TeV and in p-Pb collisions at sNN−−−√=5.02 TeV. In particular, the values in p-Pb and Pb-Pb collisions differ by about two standard deviations of the combined statistical and systematic uncertainties in the common pT interval covered by the measurements in the two collision system. The Λ+c/D0 ratio is also compared with model calculations including different implementations of charm quark hadronisation. The measured ratio is reproduced by models implementing a pure coalescence scenario, while adding a fragmentation contribution leads to an underestimation. The Λ+c nuclear modification factor, RAA, is also presented. The measured values of the RAA of Λ+c, Ds and non-strange D mesons are compatible within the combined statistical and systematic uncertainties. They show, however, a hint of a hierarchy (RD0AA<RDsAA<RΛ+cAA), conceivable with a contribution of recombination mechanisms to charm hadron formation in the medium.

Λ+c production and baryon-to-meson ratios in pp and p–Pb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV at the LHC
(2021)
The prompt production of the charm baryon Λ+c and the Λ+c/D0 production ratios were measured at midrapidity with the ALICE detector in pp and p-Pb collisions at sNN−−−√=5.02TeV. These new measurements show a clear decrease of the Λ+c/D0 ratio with increasing transverse momentum (pT) in both collision systems in the range 2<pT<12 GeV/c, exhibiting similarities with the light-flavour baryon-to-meson ratios p/π and Λ/K0S. At low pT, predictions that include additional colour-reconnection mechanisms beyond the leading-colour approximation; assume the existence of additional higher-mass charm-baryon states; or include hadronisation via coalescence can describe the data, while predictions driven by charm-quark fragmentation processes measured in e+e− and e−p collisions significantly underestimate the data. The results presented in this letter provide significant evidence that the established assumption of universality (colliding-system independence) of parton-to-hadron fragmentation is not sufficient to describe charm-baryon production in hadronic collisions at LHC energies.

Im Gegensatz zur Minimierung von DFAs ist die exakte Minimierung von NFAs oder regulären Ausdrücken nachweislich schwierig, im allgemeinen Fall PSpace-schwer. Wir zeigen, dass selbst schwache Approximationen zur Minimierung von NFAs und regulären Ausdrücken wahrscheinlich nicht effizient möglich sind. Falls als Eingabe ein NFA oder regulärer Ausdruck der Größe n gegeben ist, löst ein Approximationsalgorithmus für das Minimierungsproblem mit Approximationsfaktor o(n) bereits ein PSpace-vollständiges Problem. Wenn wir uns auf NFAs oder reguläre Ausdrücke über einem unären - also einelementigen - Alphabet beschränken, so ist das Problem der exakten Minimierung NP-vollständig. Wir weisen nach, dass effiziente Approximationen für das unäre Minimierungsproblem mit Approximationsfaktor n^(1-delta) für jedes delta>0 nicht möglich sind, sofern P != NP gilt. Liegt die Eingabe als DFA mit n Zuständen vor, kann sie exponentiell größer sein als ein äquivalenter NFA oder regulärer Ausdruck. Dennoch bleibt das Minimierungsproblem PSpace-schwer, wenn die Anzahl der Übergänge oder Zustände in einem äquivalenten NFA oder die Länge eines äquivalenten regulären Ausdrucks zu bestimmen ist. Wir zeigen, dass auch hierfür keine guten Approximationen zu erwarten sind. Unter der Annahme der Existenz von Pseudozufallsfunktionen, die wiederum auf der Annahme basiert, dass Faktorisierung schwierig ist, zeigen wir, dass kein effizienter Algorithmus einen Approximationsfaktor n/(poly(log n)) für die Zahl der Übergänge im NFA oder die Länge des regulären Ausdrucks garantieren kann. Für die Zahl der Zustände im NFA weisen wir nach, dass effiziente Approximationen mit Approximationsfaktor (n^(1/2))/(poly(log n)) ausgeschlossen sind. Wir betrachten dann Lernprobleme für reguläre Sprachen als Konzeptklasse. Mit den entwickelten Methoden, die auf der Annahme der Existenz von Pseudozufallsfunktionen beruhen, zeigen wir auch, dass es für das Problem des minimalen konsistenten DFAs keine effizienten Approximationen mit Approximationsfaktor n/(poly(log n)) gibt. Für den unären Fall hingegen weisen wir nach, dass es einen effizienten Algorithmus gibt, der einen minimalen konsistenten DFA konstruiert und erhalten somit auch einen effizienten PAC-Algorithmus für unäre reguläre Sprachen, die von DFAs mit n Zuständen akzeptiert werden. Für unäre Beispielmengen weisen wir außerdem nach, dass es keine effizienten Algorithmen gibt, die minimale konsistente NFAs konstruieren, falls NP-vollständige Probleme nicht in Zeit (n^(O(log n)) gelöst werden können. Andererseits geben wir einen effizienten Algorithmus an, der zu unären Beispielmengen einen konsistenten NFA mit höchstens O(opt^2) Zuständen konstruiert, wenn ein minimaler konsistenter NFA opt Zustände hat. Abschließend betrachten wir das Lernen von DFAs durch Äquivalenzfragen. Für den nicht-unären Fall ist bekannt, dass exponentiell viele Fragen für DFAs mit n Zuständen benötigt werden. Für unäre zyklische DFAs mit primer Zykluslänge und höchstens n Zuständen zeigen wir, dass Theta((n^2)/(ln n)) Äquivalenzfragen hinreichend und notwendig sind. Erlauben wir größere zyklische DFAs als Hypothesen, kommen wir mit weniger Fragen aus: Um zyklische DFAs mit höchstens n Zuständen durch Äquivalenzfragen mit zyklischen DFAs mit höchstens n^d Zuständen für d <= n als Hypothesen zu lernen, sind O((n^2)/d) Fragen hinreichend und Omega((n^2 ln d)/(d (ln n)^2)) Fragen nötig.
Wir haben Interaktion in der Kommunikationskomplexität untersucht und dabei die drei Modi probabilistische, (beschränkt) nichtdeterministische und quantenmechanische Kommunikation betrachtet. Bei allen drei Modi haben wir herausgefunden, dass Interaktion für Effzienz oft unerlässlich ist, im nichtdeterministischen Fall gibt es eine Abhängigkeit zwischen dem Einfluss der Interaktion und der erlaubten Anzahl der nichtdeterministischen Ratebits. Abgesehen von dem erreichten besseren Verständnis des Kommunikationsmodells haben wir verschiedene Anwendungen auf andere Berechnungsmodelle beschrieben, bei denen untere Schranken der Kommunikation zu unteren Schranken für andere Ressourcen in diesen Modellen geführt haben. Ein Beispiel eines kommunikations- und interaktionsbeschränkten Modells sind endliche Automaten, welche wir in allen drei Modi untersucht haben. Ein weiteres Beispiel sind Formeln, für die wir eine Verbindung zwischen Einweg Kommunikation und Formellänge herstellen konnten. Diese Verbindung führte zu unteren Schranken für probabilistische, nichtdeterministische und Quanten Formeln. Dabei sind die unteren Schranken für Quanten Formeln und probabilistische Formeln im wesentlichen gleich. Für monotone Schaltkreise haben wir gezeigt, wie nichtdeterministisches Raten die Tiefe drastisch reduzieren kann, und wie eine geringfügige Einschränkung der nichtdeterministischen Ratebits zu einer Tiefenhierarchie führt. Insgesamt lässt sich feststellen, dass die Schwäche interaktionsbeschränkter Kommunikation mathematisch nachvollziehbar ist. Außerdem scheint ein solches Verhalten in der Welt einfacher Berechnungsmodelle häufig aufzutreten. Oder anders gesagt, viele Berechnungsmodelle sind deshalb einfacher zu verstehen, weil sie durch interaktionsbeschränkte Kommunikation analysierbar sind.
Die letzten Jahrzehnte brachten einen enormen Zuwachs des Wissens und Verständnisses über die molekularen Prozesse des Lebens.Möglich wurde dieser Zuwachs durch die Entwicklung diverser Methoden, mit denen beispielsweise gezielt die Konzentration einzelner Stoffe gemessen werden kann oder gar alle anwesenden Metaboliten eines biologischen Systems erfasst werden können. Die großflächige Anwendung dieser Methoden führte zur Ansammlung vieler unterschiedlicher -om-Daten, wie zum Beispiel Metabolom-, Proteom- oder Transkriptoms-Datensätzen. Die Systembiologie greift auf solche Daten zurück, um mathematische Modelle biologischer Systeme zu erstellen, und ermöglicht so ein Studium biologischer Systeme auch außerhalb des Labors.
Für größere biologische Systeme stehen jedoch meistens nicht alle Informationen über Stoffkonzentrationen oder Reaktionsgeschwindigkeiten zur Verfügung, um eine quantitative Modellierung, also die Beschreibung von Änderungsraten kontinuierlicher Variablen, durchführen zu können. In einem solchen Fall wird auf Methoden der qualitativen Modellierung zurückgegriffen. Eine dieser Methoden sind die Petrinetze (PN), welche in den 1960er Jahren von Carl Adam Petri entwickelt wurden, um nebenläufige Prozesse im technischen Umfeld zu beschreiben. Seit Anfang der 1990er Jahre finden PN auch Anwendung in der Systembiologie, um zum Beispiel metabolische Systeme oder Signaltransduktionswege zu modellieren. Einer der Vorteile dieser Methode ist zudem, dass Modelle als qualitative Beschreibung des Systems begonnen werden können und im Laufe der Zeit um quantitative Beschreibungen ergänzt werden können.
Zur Modellierung und Analyse von PN existieren bereits viele Anwendungen. Da das Konzept der PN jedoch ursprünglich nicht für die Systembiologie entwickelt wurde und meist im technischen Bereich verwendet wird, existierten kaum Anwendungen, die für den Einsatz in der Systembiologie entwickelt wurden. Daher ist auch die Durchführung der für die Systembiologie entwickelten Analysemethoden für PN nicht mit diesen Anwendungen möglich. Die Motivation des ersten Teiles dieser Arbeit war daher, eine Anwendung zu schaffen, die speziell für die PN-Modellierung und Analyse in der Systembiologie gedacht ist, also in ihren Analysemethoden und ihrer Terminologie sich an den Bedürfnissen der Systembiologie orientiert. Zudem sollte die Anwendung den Anwender bei der Auswertung der Resultate der Analysemethoden visuell unterstützen, indem diese direkt visuell im Kontext des PN gesetzt werden. Da bei komplexeren PN die Resultate der Analysemethoden in ihrer Zahl drastisch anwachsen, wird eine solche Auswertung dieser notwendig. Aus dieser Motivation heraus entstand die Anwendung MonaLisa, dessen Implementierung und Funktionen im ersten Teil der vorliegenden Arbeit beschrieben werden. Neben den klassischen Analysemethoden für PN, wie den Transitions- und Platz-Invarianten, mit denen grundlegende funktionale Module innerhalb eines PN gefunden werden können, wurden weitere, meist durch die Systembiologie entwickelte, Analysemethoden implementiert. Dazu zählen zum Beispiel die Minimal Cut Sets, die Maximal Common Transitions Sets oder Knock-out-Analysen. Mit MonaLisa ist aber auch die Simulation des dynamischen Verhaltens des modellierten biologischen Systems möglich. Hierzu stehen sowohl deterministische als auch stochastische Verfahren, beispielsweise der Algorithmus von Gillespie zur Simulation chemischer Systeme, zur Verfügung. Für alle zur Verfügung gestellten Analysemethoden wird ebenfalls eine visuelle Repräsentation ihrer Resultate bereitgestellt. Im Falle der Invarianten werden deren Elemente beispielsweise in der Visualisierung des PN eingefärbt. Die Resultate der Simulationen oder der topologischen Analyse können durch verschiedene Graphen ausgewertet werden. Um eine Schnittstelle zu anderen Anwendungen zu schaffen, wurde für MonaLisa eine Unterstützung einiger gängiger Dateiformate der Systembiologie geschaffen, so z.B. für SBML und KGML.
Der zweite Teil der Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der topologischen Analyse eines Datensatzes von 2641 Gesamtgenom Modellen aus der path2models-Datenbank. Diese Modelle wurden automatisiert aus dem vorhandenen Wissen der KEGG- und der MetaCyc-Datenbank erstellt. Die Analyse der topologischen Eigenschaften eines Graphen ermöglicht es, grundlegende Aussagen über die globalen Eigenschaften des modellierten Systems und dessen Entstehungsprozesses zu treffen. Daher ist eine solche Analyse oft der erste Schritt für das Verständnis eines komplexen biologischen Systems. Für die Analyse der Knotengrade aller Reaktionen und Metaboliten dieser Modelle wurden sie in einem ersten Schritt in PN transformiert. Die topologischen Eigenschaften von metabolischen Systemen werden in der Literatur schon sehr gut beschrieben, wobei die Untersuchungen meist auf einem Netzwerk der Metaboliten oder der Reaktionen basieren. Durch die Verwendung von PN wird es möglich, die topologischen Eigenschaften von Metaboliten und Reaktionen in einem gemeinsamen Netzwerk zu untersuchen. Die Motivation hinter diesen Untersuchungen war, zu überprüfen, ob die schon beschriebenen Eigenschaften auch für eine Darstellung als PN zutreffen und welche neuen Eigenschaften gefunden werden können. Untersucht wurden der Knotengrad und der Clusterkoeffizient der Modelle. Es wird gezeigt, dass einige wenige Metaboliten mit sehr hohem Knotengrad für eine ganze Reihe von Effekten verantwortlich sind, wie beispielsweise dass die Verteilung des Knotengrades und des Clusterkoeffizienten, im Bezug auf Metaboliten, skalenfrei sind und dass sie für die Vernetzung der Nachbarschaft von Reaktionen verantwortlich sind. Weiter wird gezeigt, dass die Größe eines Modelles Einfluss auf dessen topologische Eigenschaften hat. So steigt die Vernetzung der Nachbarschaft eines Metaboliten, je mehr Metaboliten in einem biologischen System vorhanden sind, gleiches gilt für den durchschnittlichen Knotengrad der Metaboliten.
Z-boson production in p–Pb collisions at √sNN = 8.16 TeV and Pb–Pb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV
(2021)
Measurement of Z-boson production in p-Pb collisions at sNN−−−√=8.16 TeV and Pb-Pb collisions at sNN−−−√=5.02 TeV is reported. It is performed in the dimuon decay channel, through the detection of muons with pseudorapidity −4<ημ<−2.5 and transverse momentum pμT>20 GeV/c in the laboratory frame. The invariant yield and nuclear modification factor are measured for opposite-sign dimuons with invariant mass 60<mμμ<120 GeVc2 and rapidity 2.5<yμμcms<4. They are presented as a function of rapidity and, for the Pb-Pb collisions, of centrality as well. The results are compared with theoretical calculations, both with and without nuclear modifications to the Parton Distribution Functions (PDFs). In p-Pb collisions the center-of-mass frame is boosted with respect to the laboratory frame, and the measurements cover the backward (−4.46<yμμcms<−2.96) and forward (2.03<yμμcms<3.53) rapidity regions. For the p-Pb collisions, the results are consistent within experimental and theoretical uncertainties with calculations that include both free-nucleon and nuclear-modified PDFs. For the Pb-Pb collisions, a 3.4σ deviation is seen in the integrated yield between the data and calculations based on the free-nucleon PDFs, while good agreement is found once nuclear modifications are considered.

The results are compared with theoretical calculations, both with and without nuclear modifications to the Parton Distribution Functions (PDFs). In p-Pb collisions the center-of-mass frame is boosted with respect to the laboratory frame, and the measurements cover the backward (−4.46<yμμcms<−2.96) and forward (2.03<yμμcms<3.53) rapidity regions. For the p-Pb collisions, the results are consistent within experimental and theoretical uncertainties with calculations that include both free-nucleon and nuclear-modified PDFs. For the Pb-Pb collisions, a 3.4σ deviation is seen in the integrated yield between the data and calculations based on the free-nucleon PDFs, while good agreement is found once nuclear modifications are considered.
Z-boson production in p-Pb collisions at √sNN = 8.16 TeV and Pb-Pb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV
(2020)
Measurement of Z-boson production in p-Pb collisions at sNN−−−√ = 8.16 TeV and Pb-Pb collisions at sNN−−−√ = 5.02 TeV is reported. It is performed in the dimuon decay channel, through the detection of muons with pseudorapidity −4 < ημ < −2.5 and transverse momentum pμT > 20 GeV/c in the laboratory frame. The invariant yield and nuclear modification factor are measured for opposite-sign dimuons with invariant mass 60 < mμμ < 120 GeV/c2 and rapidity 2.5 < yμμcms < 4. They are presented as a function of rapidity and, for the Pb-Pb collisions, of centrality as well. The results are compared with theoretical calculations, both with and without nuclear modifications to the Parton Distribution Functions (PDFs). In p-Pb collisions the center-of-mass frame is boosted with respect to the laboratory frame, and the measurements cover the backward (−4.46 < yμμcms < −2.96) and forward (2.03 < yμμcms < 3.53) rapidity regions. For the p-Pb collisions, the results are consistent within experimental and theoretical uncertainties with calculations that include both free-nucleon and nuclear-modified PDFs. For the Pb-Pb collisions, a 3.4σ deviation is seen in the integrated yield between the data and calculations based on the free-nucleon PDFs, while good agreement is found once nuclear modifications are considered.
Die Menge digital zur Verfügung stehender Dokumente wächst zunehmend. Umso wichtiger sind adäquate Methoden, um sehr große Dokumentkollektionen durch-suchen zu können. Im Gegensatz zur exakten Suche, bei der nach Dokumenten mit bekannten Dateinamen gesucht wird, werden Techniken des Information Retrieval (IR) dazu eingesetzt, relevante Ergebnisse zu einer Anfrage ausfindig zu machen. Seit einigen Jahren werden verstärkt Kollektionen mit strukturierten Dokumenten durch¬sucht, insbesondere seit Durchsetzung der eXtensible Markup Language (XML) als offizieller Standard des World Wide Web Consortiums (W3C). Mittlerweile gibt es eine Reihe von Forschungsansätzen, bei denen IR-Methoden auf XML-Dokumente angewendet werden. XML Information Retrieval (XML-IR) nutzt dabei die Struktur der Dokumente, um die Suche nach und in denselben effektiver zu machen, d.h. die Qualität von Suchergebnissen zu verbessern, beispielsweise durch Fokussierung auf besonders relevante Dokumentteile. Die bisherigen Lösungen beziehen sich jedoch alle auf zentralisierte Stand-Alone Suchmaschinen zu Forschungszwecken. Sehr große, über eine Vielzahl von Rechnern verteilte Datenkollektionen lassen sich damit nicht durchsuchen. Techniken für verteiltes XML-IR werden in der Praxis auch dort benötigt, wo das zu durchsuchende System aus einer Vielzahl lokaler, heterogener XML-Kollektionen besteht, deren Benutzer ihre Dokumente nicht auf einem zent¬ralen Server speichern wollen oder können; solche Benutzer schließen sich häufig in Form eines dezentralen Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Netzes zusammen. Dennoch gibt es derzeit weder für Systeme im Allgemeinen, noch für P2P-Systeme im Speziellen Suchmaschinen, mit denen nach relevanten Dokumenten gesucht werden kann. In der vorliegenden Dissertation wird daher am Beispiel von P2P-Netzen erstmalig untersucht, inwiefern XML-IR in verteilten Systemen überhaupt effektiv und effizient möglich ist. Dazu wird ein allgemeines Architekturmodell für die Entwick-lung von P2P-Suchmaschinen für XML-Retrieval entworfen, in dem Funktionalität aus den Bereichen XML-IR und P2P in abstrakten Schichten angeordnet ist. Das Modell wird als Grundlage für den Entwurf einer konkreten P2P-Suchmaschine für XML-IR verwendet. Es werden dazu verschiedene Techniken für verteiltes XML-IR entwickelt, um die einzelnen Phasen der Suche umzusetzen: Indizierung der Doku¬mente, Routing der Anfragen, Ranking geeigneter Dokumente und Retrieval von Ergebnissen. Insbesondere die Problematik von aus mehreren Suchbegriffen bestehenden Multitermanfragen sowie Verteilungsaspekte werden berücksichtigt. Neben der zu erzie-lenden Suchqualität steht vor allem der notwendige Kommunikations¬aufwand im Vordergrund. Die entwickelten Methoden werden in Form einer P2P-Suchmaschine für verteiltes XML-Retrieval implementiert, die aus fast 40.000 Zeilen Java-Code besteht. Diese Suchmaschine namens SPIRIX kann voll-funktionsfähig nach XML-Dokumenten in einem P2P-Netz suchen und deren Relevanz inhaltsbasiert bewerten. Für die Kommunikation zwischen Peers wird ein P2P-Protokoll namens SpirixDHT entworfen, das auf Basis von Chord arbeitet und speziell für den Einsatz von XML-IR angepasst wird. Für die Evaluierung der entworfenen Techniken wird zunächst die Suchqualität von SPIRIX nachgewiesen. Dies geschieht durch die Teilnahme an INEX, der internationalen Initiative für die Evaluierung von XML-Retrieval. Im Rahmen von INEX werden jedes Jahr XML-IR Lösungen weltweit miteinander verglichen. Für 2008 konnte mit SPIRIX eine Suchpräzision erreicht werden, die vergleichbar mit der Qualität der Top-10 XML-IR Lösungen ist. In weiteren Experimenten werden die entworfenen Methoden für verteiltes XML-Retrieval mit INEX-Werkzeugen evaluiert; dabei werden jeweils die erzielte Such-qualität und der notwendige Aufwand gegenübergestellt. Die gewonnenen Er¬kenn-tnisse werden auf den Routingprozess angewendet; hier ist speziell die Frage-stellung interessant, wie XML-Struktur zur Performanzverbesserung in Bezug auf die Effizienz eines verteilten Systems genutzt werden kann. Die Evaluierung der konzi¬pier¬ten Routingtechniken zeigt eine signifikante Reduzierung der Anzahl versendeter Nachrichten, ihrer Größe und somit der Netzlast, wobei gleichzeitig eine Steigerung der Suchqualität erreicht wird. Im Rahmen der Dissertation wird somit der Nachweis erbracht, dass verteiltes XML-IR sowohl effektiv als auch effizient möglich ist. Zugleich wird gezeigt, wie die Ver¬wendung von XML-IR Techniken beim Routing der Anfragen dazu beitragen kann, den notwendige Suchaufwand – insbesondere den für die Kommunikation zwischen Peers – so weit zu reduzieren, dass das System auch zu einer großen Anzahl von teil¬nehmenden Peers skaliert und trotzdem eine hohe Suchqualität aufrecht erhalten werden kann.
W±-boson production in p–Pb collisions at √sNN = 8.16 TeV and Pb–Pb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV
(2022)
The production of the W± bosons measured in p−Pb collisions at a centre-of-mass energy per nucleon−nucleon collision sNN−−−−√=8.16 TeV and Pb−Pb collisions at sNN−−−−√=5.02 TeV with ALICE at the LHC is presented. The W± bosons are measured via their muonic decay channel, with the muon reconstructed in the pseudorapidity region −4<ημlab<−2.5 with transverse momentum pμT>10 GeV/c. While in Pb−Pb collisions the measurements are performed in the forward (2.5<yμcms<4) rapidity region, in p−Pb collisions, where the centre-of-mass frame is boosted with respect to the laboratory frame, the measurements are performed in the backward (−4.46<yμcms<−2.96) and forward (2.03<yμcms<3.53) rapidity regions. The W− and W+ production cross sections, lepton-charge asymmetry, and nuclear modification factors are evaluated as a function of the muon rapidity. In order to study the production as a function of the p−Pb collision centrality, the production cross sections of the W− and W+ bosons are combined and normalised to the average number of binary nucleon−nucleon collision ⟨Ncoll⟩. In Pb−Pb collisions, the same measurements are presented as a function of the collision centrality. Study of the binary scaling of the W±-boson cross sections in p−Pb and Pb−Pb collisions is also reported. The results are compared with perturbative QCD (pQCD) calculations, with and without nuclear modifications of the Parton Distribution Functions (PDFs), as well as with available data at the LHC. Significant deviations from the theory expectations are found in the two collision systems, indicating that the measurements can provide additional constraints for the determination of nuclear PDF (nPDFs) and in particular of the light-quark distributions.

BIOfid is a specialized information service currently being developed to mobilize biodiversity data dormant in printed historical and modern literature and to offer a platform for open access journals on the science of biodiversity. Our team of librarians, computer scientists and biologists produce high-quality text digitizations, develop new text-mining tools and generate detailed ontologies enabling semantic text analysis and semantic search by means of user-specific queries. In a pilot project we focus on German publications on the distribution and ecology of vascular plants, birds, moths and butterflies extending back to the Linnaeus period about 250 years ago. The three organism groups have been selected according to current demands of the relevant research community in Germany. The text corpus defined for this purpose comprises over 400 volumes with more than 100,000 pages to be digitized and will be complemented by journals from other digitization projects, copyright-free and project-related literature. With TextImager (Natural Language Processing & Text Visualization) and TextAnnotator (Discourse Semantic Annotation) we have already extended and launched tools that focus on the text-analytical section of our project. Furthermore, taxonomic and anatomical ontologies elaborated by us for the taxa prioritized by the project’s target group - German institutions and scientists active in biodiversity research - are constantly improved and expanded to maximize scientific data output. Our poster describes the general workflow of our project ranging from literature acquisition via software development, to data availability on the BIOfid web portal (http://biofid.de/), and the implementation into existing platforms which serve to promote global accessibility of biodiversity data.
This paper provides a theoretical assessment of gestures in the context of authoring image-related hypertexts by example of the museum information system WikiNect. To this end, a first implementation of gestural writing based on image schemata is provided (Lakoff in Women, fire, and dangerous things: what categories reveal about the mind. University of Chicago Press, Chicago, 1987). Gestural writing is defined as a sort of coding in which propositions are only expressed by means of gestures. In this respect, it is shown that image schemata allow for bridging between natural language predicates and gestural manifestations. Further, it is demonstrated that gestural writing primarily focuses on the perceptual level of image descriptions (Hollink et al. in Int J Hum Comput Stud 61(5):601–626, 2004). By exploring the metaphorical potential of image schemata, it is finally illustrated how to extend the expressiveness of gestural writing in order to reach the conceptual level of image descriptions. In this context, the paper paves the way for implementing museum information systems like WikiNect as systems of kinetic hypertext authoring based on full-fledged gestural writing.
Wiki-Systeme im eLearning
(2006)
Wiki-Systeme lassen sich in den verschiedensten Anwendungsgebieten auf angenehme Weise, aufgrund ihrer Open-Source Lizenz, durch die Anreicherung entsprechender Zusatzmodule anpassen. An dieser Stelle muss jedoch bedacht werden, dass durch die Integration vermehrter Funktionen, das charakteristische Merkmal der Wiki-Systeme 'Einfachheit' an Präsenz verlieren kann. Dieses, für Wikis typische Charakteristikum ist eine nicht zu unterschätzende Stärke, da sowohl die Expansion der Enzyklopädie Wikipedia, als auch die zunehmende Anzahl bestehender Wikis im Internet geradezu Beweis dafür sind, dass keine anderen Anwendungen in diesem Verhältnis existiert haben. Würde somit das Wiki, aufgrund der Anpassung an ein vorliegendes Konzept an Einfachheit verlieren, so müssten die Beweggründe des Wiki-Einsatzes noch mal überdacht werden. Ebenso könnte in den Bereichen, in denen die Stärken von Wikis unbrauchbar sind, ein anderes System womöglich bessere Ergebnisse liefern als ein Wiki. Aus diesen Gründen sollte vor einem Wiki-Einsatz überprüft werden, ob die vorhandenen Merkmale und Funktionen eines Wikis mit den eigenen Anforderungen übereinstimmen. Die im Rahmen dieser Arbeit durchgeführte Befragung hat gezeigt, das Wikis größtenteils als Präsentationsmedium, zur gemeinsamen Texterstellung und als Informationsplattform genutzt werden. Es ist deutlich geworden, dass die Integration von Wikis im Lehrbereich geeignete Anwendung findet. Auffallend war, dass zwar bei (fast) allen Befragten Schwierigkeiten aufgetreten sind und sogar erhoffte Erwartungen teilweise nicht erfüllt wurden, dennoch war der größte Teil der Befragten mit dem Wiki-Einsatz zufrieden und bewertete diesen als positiv. Die Art der aufgetretenen Schwierigkeiten und Schwachstellen zeigt, dass den Lehrenden gewisse Anleitungen und Richtlinien für einen erfolgreichen Wiki-Einsatz fehlten. Denn Informationen zum didaktischen Rahmen - in denen Wikis eingesetzt werden können - und wie Wikis eingesetzt werden sollen, waren nicht vorhanden. Somit sollen die - in dieser Arbeit - erarbeiteten Empfehlungen und Kriterien, Lehrende zu einem optimierten Wiki-Einsatz in Lehrveranstaltungen verhelfen. Außerdem sind in dieser Arbeit Vorgaben enthalten, wie Wiki-Einsätze von Lehrenden gestaltet werden können, so dass die häufig auftretenden Probleme vermieden werden können. Die erarbeiteten Empfehlungen und Kriterien sind gleichermaßen aus den positiven, wie auch aus den negativen Erfahrungen der Befragten entstanden. Insbesondere sollen die Empfehlungen und Kriterien, die von den Befragten permanent beklagten auftretenden Schwierigkeiten und Probleme verhindern. Eine Garantie jedoch, dass die Einhaltung dieser Empfehlungen und Kriterien zu einem erfolgreichen Wiki-Einsatz führen und ob keine relevanten Kriterien unbeachtet gelassen sind, kann an dieser Stelle nicht gegeben werden. Ob sich nun die Probleme, die sich mit Wiki-Einsätzen wiederholt ergeben haben, durch die Befolgung dieser Kriterien und Empfehlungen vermeiden lassen, könnte im Rahmen einer nachfolgenden Diplomarbeit untersucht werden, in der Wiki- Einsätze, begleitet werden. Weiterhin sollte im Rahmen einer weiteren Arbeit die Situation der Lernenden und die Auswirkung auf das Lernverhalten in Verbindung mit Wiki-Systemen evaluiert werden, so dass einige Thesen dieser Arbeit belegt oder gar widerlegt werden können.
The wide-area deployment of WiFi hot spots challenges IP access providers. While new profit models are sought after by them, profitability as well as logistics for large-scale deployment of 802.11 wireless technology are still to be proven. Expenditure for hardware, locations, maintenance, connectivity, marketing, billing and customer care must be considered. Even for large carriers with infrastructure, the deployment of a large-scale WiFi infrastructure may be risky. This paper proposes a multi-level scheme for hot spot distribution and customer acquisition that reduces financial risk, cost of marketing and cost of maintenance for the large-scale deployment of WiFi hot spots.
