Abstract: Event-level studies measure substance use and sexual behaviors happening during a specific sexual encounter, ensuring that both variables are temporally paired. This study explored the event-level associations between a range of sexual behaviors (masturbation, anal sex, oral sex, rimming, fisting, sex toys, and group sex) and five sexualized substances (poppers, methamphetamine, GHB, ecstasy/MDMA, and ketamine) used during 11,582 sexual events reported by 762 gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (GBMSM) in Vancouver, Canada. Data were obtained from a prospective cohort of GBMSM who self-reported their behaviors via computer-based questionnaires on their last sexual encounter with up to five of their most recent partners in the past six months. These clustered data were analyzed with multivariable generalized linear mixed models. Participants reported popper use in 16.1% of sexual encounters, methamphetamine in 8.6%, gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB) in 4.1%, ecstasy/3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) in 3.3%, and ketamine in 1.5%. Condomless receptive anal sex (25.0% of events) was associated with increased odds of using poppers, methamphetamine, GHB, and ecstasy/MDMA. Group sex (13.1% of events) and sharing sex toys (2.0% of events) were more likely with the use of all five substances. Receiving money/drugs/goods in exchange for sex (2.5% of events) was associated with increased odds of poppers, methamphetamine, GHB, and ecstasy/MDMA use. GBMSM living with HIV (29.9% of participants) had higher odds of using poppers, methamphetamine, and GHB, but lower odds of using ecstasy/MDMA. In conclusion, these event-level results suggest public health strategies are needed to address the possible negative impacts of sexualized substance use among GBMSM.

Abstract: The last Canadian biobehavioural surveillance study of HIV and other sexually transmitted and blood-borne infections (STBBI) among gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (GBM) was conducted in 2010. We designed a study to measure STBBI prevalence among GBM in metropolitan Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver and to document related preventive and risk behaviours.The Engage Cohort Study used respondent-driven sampling (RDS) to recruit GBM who reported sex with another man in the past 6 months. At baseline, we examined recruitment characteristics of the samples, and the RDS-II-adjusted distributions of socio-demographics, laboratory-confirmed HIV and other STBBI prevalence, and related behaviours, with a focus on univariate differences among cities.A total of 2449 GBM were recruited from February 2017 to August 2019. HIV prevalence was lower in Montreal (14.2%) than in Toronto (22.2%) or Vancouver (20.4%). History of syphilis infection was similar across cities (14-16%). Vancouver had more HIV-negative/unknown participants who reported never being HIV tested (18.6%) than Toronto (12.9%) or Montreal (11.5%). Both Montreal (74.9%) and Vancouver (78.8%) had higher proportions of men who tested for another STBBI in the past 6 months than Toronto (67.4%). Vancouver had a higher proportion of men who used pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) in the past 6 months (18.9%) than Toronto (11.1%) or Montreal (9.6%).The three largest cities of Canada differed in HIV prevalence, STBBI testing and PrEP use among GBM. Our findings also suggest the need for scale-up of both PrEP and STI testing among GBM in Canada.RéSUMé: OBJECTIFS: La dernière étude canadienne portant sur la surveillance biocomportementale du VIH et des autres infections transmissibles sexuellement et par le sang (ITSS) chez les hommes gais, bisexuels et autres hommes ayant des relations sexuelles avec des hommes (GBH) a été menée en 2010. Nous avons mis en œuvre une étude visant à estimer la prévalence des ITSS parmi les GBH résidant dans les régions métropolitaines de Montréal, Toronto et Vancouver ainsi qu’à documenter les comportements préventifs et à risque associés à ces infections. MéTHODES: La méthode « d’échantillonnage dirigé par les répondants » (RDS) a été utilisée pour recruter des GBH ayant eu des relations sexuelles avec un autre homme au cours des six derniers mois. Nous avons examiné les distributions, ajustées selon l’approche RDS-II, des caractéristiques socio-démographiques des répondants, et la prévalence du VIH et d’autres ITSS mesurées par des tests de laboratoire ainsi que les comportements associés. Nous avons porté une attention particulière aux différences entre les villes décelées par analyses univariées. RéSULTATS: Nous avons recruté un total de 2 449 GBH entre février 2017 et août 2019. La prévalence du VIH était plus basse à Montréal (14,2 %) qu’à Toronto (22,2 %) ou à Vancouver (20,4 %) alors que celle de la syphilis (résultat de test compatible avec une infection au cours de la vie) était similaire dans les trois villes (14 à 16 %). Vancouver comptait plus de participants de statut VIH négatif/inconnu ayant déclaré n’avoir jamais passé un test de détection du VIH à vie (18,6 %) comparativement à Toronto (12,9 %) ou à Montréal (11,5 %) alors que les proportions de répondants ayant passé un test de détection d’une autre ITSS au cours des six derniers mois étaient plus élevées à Montréal (74,9 %) et à Vancouver (78,8 %) qu’à Toronto (67,4 %). Vancouver comptait une plus forte proportion d’hommes ayant eu recours à la prophylaxie du VIH pré-exposition (PrEP) au cours des six derniers mois (18,9 %) que Toronto (11,1 %) ou Montréal (9,6 %). CONCLUSION: Les trois plus grandes villes du Canada différaient en ce qui concerne la prévalence du VIH, le dépistage des ITSS et l’utilisation de la PrEP au sein des GBH. Nos résultats suggèrent la nécessité d’intensifier le dépistage des ITSS et le recours à la PrEP chez les GBH au Canada.

Abstract: In 2013, Bringmann and Mahlburg defined a new type of partitions by adding a different restriction on the smallest parts in Gleissberg’s generalization of partitions considered by Schur. The generating function of this new Schur-type partitions is a mixed mock modular form, more precisely, it equals the product of the generating function of Gleissberg’s generalization and a specialization of a universal mock theta function $$g_3(x;q)$$ , where $$g_3(x;q)$$ is Hickerson’s universal mock theta function of odd order. Gordon and McIntosh also found a second universal mock theta function of even order $$g_2(x;q)$$ . To give an analogue of Bringmann and Mahlburg’s result of these two Schur-type identities, with respect to $$g_2(x;q)$$ , Bringmann, Lovejoy and Mahlburg investigated two kinds of overpartitions and obtained two overpartition theorems which can be viewed as the overpartition analogues of Gleissberg’s generalization and Bringmann and Mahlburg’s theorem. The quotient of the generating functions of these two kinds of overpartitions is a specialization of $$g_2(x;q)$$ . At the end of their article, Bringmann et al. asked for a bijective proof of their first theorem. In this paper, we construct a bijection by employing the d-modular Ferrers diagram to prove their first theorem and also derive a new bi-parameter generating function for the second set of overpartitions. By this new generating function and a $$_3\phi _2$$ transformation, we rediscover their second identity and a corollary. Inspired by a generalization of Schur’s theorem due to Andrews, we also give a generalization of Bringmann et al.’s first theorem which extends r, $$d-r$$ to an integer set A and the modulus from 2d to td.

Abstract: The present study focuses on the flow over a 2D square cylinder with a plate placed in front of it. An in-house code using the lattice Boltzmann method was employed for all the simulations presented. Few cases were simulated using the open source code Nektar++, the results obtained from both methodologies were compared. Regarding the plate, three related parameters, velocity ratio, distance between the plate and cylinder and the thickness of the plate, were studied in order to evaluate the impact of these parameters on the flow behavior. The interactions between these parameters were as well investigated. The effect of these parameters on flow transitional properties such as Hopf and Neimark–Sacker bifurcations were discussed. Whenever the velocity ratio exceeds a certain value, Kelvin–Helmholtz instabilities dominate the vortex shedding. As velocity ratio increases, drag coefficient and vortex shedding frequency increase. The POD method was employed to predict the flow behavior based on the existing information. It turned out the POD method is a trustable methodology to mathematically pre-investigate the flow field, therefore it is capable of saving large computational resources.

Abstract: HIV testing remains a critical point of entry to HIV treatment services and now biomedical prevention as well. Yet despite the high HIV prevalence among Black men who have sex with men (MSM), insufficient attention has been given to factors associated with those Black MSM in the United States who have never received an HIV test in their lifetime. Promoting Our Worth, Equality, & Resilience (POWER) is a cross-sectional observational study that recruited Black MSM at Black Pride events across six cities in the United States from 2014 to 2017. Participants completed an anonymous questionnaire and were offered free, confidential HIV testing. Of the 4174 Black MSM without a prior HIV diagnosis, 404 (9.68%) had never tested for HIV (mean age = 31.03 years). Lower education and greater internalized homophobia were associated with never having tested for HIV. Higher age (AOR = 1.05, 95%, 1.02–1.07) and assumption of HIV-positivity (AOR = 3.24, 95% CI 1.53–6.84) were both associated with increased odds of an HIV-positive test result (n = 119; 36%). To compare, HIV prevalence among Black MSM who had received at least one HIV test before study participation was 23%. While a minority of Black MSM had never received an HIV test, this group had a significantly higher likelihood of HIV infection. Alternative HIV testing strategies are needed to facilitate HIV testing initiation among Black MSM for whom conventional HIV testing modalities are insufficient.

Abstract: Men who have sex with men and women (MSMW), including those who are Black, experience HIV-related disparities compared to men who have sex with men only (MSMO). Few studies have assessed the prevalence and correlates of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) awareness and use among Black MSMW. We recruited MSM ≥ 18 attending Black Gay Pride events between 2014–2017. We conducted multivariable logistic regressions to assess differences in PrEP awareness and use among HIV-negative Black MSM (n = 2398) and within Black MSMW (n = 419). MSMW were less likely than MSMO to report PrEP awareness (p

Abstract: The deleterious effects of HIV stigma on HIV+ Black MSM care continuum outcomes have been well-documented. How HIV stigma shapes HIV prevention for HIV- persons in this community is poorly understood. We sought to test the relationship of HIV stigma with HIV- Black MSM on HIV testing, pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) awareness, and PrEP use. We recruited 772 participants at Black Pride events across five US cities in 2016. Multivariable logistic regression models assessed the association of external HIV stigma on prevention outcomes adjusting for sociodemographic variables. Stigma was positively associated with PrEP awareness (AOR = 1.34; 95% CI = 1.09, 1.66; p value = 0.005), and not associated with PrEP use or HIV testing in our sample. These findings highlight the complex nature of HIV stigma among BMSM and include results for PrEP, which can affect uptake other prevention methods. We support anti-HIV stigma efforts and advise further exploration on HIV stigma among BMSM and prevention outcomes.

Abstract: Substantial literature demonstrates the influence of the neighborhood environment on health behaviors and outcomes. But limited research examines on how gay and bisexual men experience and exist in various geographic and virtual spaces and how this relates to their sexual behavior. New York City Men 2 Men (NYCM2M) was a cross-sectional study designed to identify neighborhood-level characteristics within the urban environment that influence sexual risk behaviors, substance use, and depression among men who have sex with men (MSM) living in NYC. The sample was recruited using a modified venue-based time-space sampling methodology and through select websites and mobile applications. Whether key neighborhoods of human activity, where a participant resided (termed home), socialized (termed social), or had sex most often (termed sex), were the same or different was evaluated. “Congruence” (or the sameness) of home, social, and most often sex neighborhood was reported by 17 % of men, while 30 % reported that none of their neighborhoods were the same. The largest group of men (39 %) reported that their home and sex neighborhoods were the same but their social neighborhood was different while 10 % reported that their home neighborhood was different than their social and sex neighborhood; 5 % men reported same home and social neighborhoods with a different sex neighborhood. Complete neighborhood incongruence was highest among men who were Black and/or Latino, had lower education and personal income levels, and had greater financial insecurity. In adjusted analysis, serodiscordant condomless anal intercourse and condomless anal intercourse with partners from the Internet or mobile applications were significantly associated with having the same social and sex (but not home) neighborhoods. Understanding the complexity of how different spaces and places relate to the health and sexual behavior of MSM is essential for focusing interventions to best reach various populations of interest.

Abstract: In 1961, Gordon found a combinatorial generalization of the Rogers–Ramanujan identities, which has been called the Rogers–Ramanujan–Gordon theorem. In 1974, Andrews derived an identity which can be considered as the generating function counterpart of the Rogers–Ramanujan–Gordon theorem, and it has been called the Andrews–Gordon identity. The Andrews–Gordon identity is an analytic generalization of the Rogers–Ramanujan identities with odd moduli. In 1979, Bressoud obtained a Rogers–Ramanujan–Gordon type theorem and the corresponding Andrews–Gordon type identity with even moduli. In 2003, Lovejoy proved two overpartition analogues of two special cases of the Rogers–Ramanujan–Gordon theorem. In 2013, Chen, Sang and Shi found the overpartition analogue of the Rogers–Ramanujan–Gordon theorem in general cases and the corresponding Andrews–Gordon type identity with even moduli. In 2008, Corteel, Lovejoy and Mallet found an overpartition analogue of a special case of Bressoud’s theorem of the Rogers–Ramanujan–Gordon type. In 2012, Chen, Sang and Shi obtained the overpartition analogue of Bressoud’s theorem in the general case. In this paper, we obtain an Andrews–Gordon type identity corresponding to this overpartition theorem with odd moduli using the Gordon marking representation of an overpartition.

Abstract: For k≥2 and k≥i≥1, let B k,i (n) denote the number of partitions of n such that part 1 appears at most i−1 times, two consecutive integers l and l+1 appear at most k−1 times, and if l and l+1 appear exactly k−1 times then the sum of the parts l and l+1 is congruent to i−1 modulo 2. Let A k,i (n) denote the number of partitions with parts not congruent to 0, ±i modulo 2k. Bressoud’s theorem states that A k,i (n)=B k,i (n). Corteel, Lovejoy, and Mallet found an overpartition analogue of Bressoud’s theorem for i=1, that is, for overpartitions not containing non-overlined part 1. We obtain an overpartition analogue of Bressoud’s theorem in the general case. For k≥2 and k≥i≥1, let D k,i (n) denote the number of overpartitions of n such that non-overlined part 1 appears at most i−1 times, for any integer l, l and non-overlined l+1 appear at most k−1 times, and if the parts l and non-overlined part l+1 together appear exactly k−1 times then the sum of the parts l and non-overlined parts l+1 has the same parity as the number of overlined parts that are less than l+1 plus i−1. Let C k,i (n) denote the number of overpartitions of n with the non-overlined parts not congruent to ±i and 2k−1 modulo 2k−1. We show that C k,i (n)=D k,i (n). Note that this relation can also be considered as a Rogers–Ramanujan–Gordon type theorem for overpartitions.

Abstract: Inclusive differential cross sections dsigma(pA)/dx(F) and dsigma(pA)/dp(t)(2) for the production of K-S(0), Lambda, and (U) over bar particles are measured at HERA in proton-induced reactions on C, Al, Ti, and W targets. The incident beam energy is 920 GeV, corresponding to roots = 41.6 GeV in the proton-nucleon system. The ratios of differential cross sections dsigma(pA)(K-S(0))/dsigma(pA)(Lambda) and dsigma(pA)((U) over bar)/dsigma(pA) (Lambda) are measured to be 6.2 +/- 0.5 and 0.66 +/- 0.07, respectively, for x(F) approximate to -0.06. No significant dependence upon the target material is observed. Within errors, the slopes of the transverse momentum distributions da,Ald t also show no significant dependence upon the target material. The dependence of the extrapolated total cross sections sigma(pA) on the atomic mass A of the target material is discussed, and the deduced cross sections per nucleon sigma(pN) are compared with results obtained at other energies.

Abstract: Using the HERA-B detector, the b-bbar production cross section has been measured in 920 GeV proton collisions on carbon and titanium targets. The b-bbar production was tagged via inclusive bottom quark decays into J/psi, by exploiting the longitudinal separation of J/psi->ll decay vertices from the primary proton-nucleus interaction. Both $e^+e^-$ and $\mu^+\mu^-$ channels have been reconstructed and the combined analysis yields the cross section $\sigma(b \bar b) = 32 ^{+14}_{-12} (stat) ^{+6}_{-7} (sys) nb/nucleon$., Comment: 22 pages, 10 Postscript figures

Abstract: A selection of di-lepton events with significant missing transverse momentum has been performed using a total data sample of 237.4 pb-1 at e+e- centre-of-rnass energies of approximately 183 GeV and 189 GeV. The observed numbers of events - 78 at 183 GeV and 301 at 189 GeV - are consistent with the numbers expected from Standard Model processes, which arise predominantly from W+W- production with both W bosons decaying leptonically. This topology is also an experimental signature for the pair production of new particles that decay to a charged lepton accompanied by one or more invisible particles. Discrimination techniques are described that optimise the sensitivity to particular new physics channels. No evidence for new phenomena is apparent. Upper limits on the production cross-section times branching ratio squared for sleptons and for leptonically decaying charginos and charged Higgs are presented in a manner intended to minimise the number of model assumptions. Assuming a 100% branching ratio for the decay l±R → l±χ01, where χ01 is the lightest neutralino, we exclude at 95% CL: right-handed smuons with masses below 82.3 GeV for mμ- - mχ01 > 3 GeV and right-handed staus with masses below 81.0 GeV for mτ- -mχ01 > 8 GeV. Right-handed selectrons are excluded at 95% CL for masses below 87.1 GeV for mẽ - mχ01 > 5 GeV, within the framework of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model assuming μ, < - 100 GeV and tan β= 1.5. Charged Higgs bosons, H±, are excluded at 95% CL for masses below 82.8 GeV, assuming a 100% branching ratio for the decay H± → τ ± vτ.

Abstract: The correlated production of $\Lambda$ and $\bar\Lambda$ baryons has been studied using 4.3 million multihadronic ${\rm Z}^0$ decays recorded with the Opal detector at Lep. Lambda pairs were investigated in the full data sample and for the first time also in 2-jet and 3-jet events selected with the $k_\perp$ algorithm. The distributions of rapidity differences from correlated $\Lambda\bar\Lambda$ pairs exhibit short-range, local correlations and prove to be a sensitive tool to test models, particularly for 2-jet events. The Jetset model describes the data best but some extra parameter tuning is needed to improve agreement with the experimental results in the rates and the rapidity spectra simultaneously. The recently developed modification of Jetset, the MOdified Popcorn Scenarium (Mops), and also Herwig do not give satisfactory results. This study of di-lambda production in 2- and 3-jet events supports the short-range compensation of quantum numbers.

Abstract: A sample of ${\rm Z}^0$ decays containing b-flavoured hadrons is tagged using leptons, and events having precise proper time measurements are selected. These events are used to study ${\rm B}^0_{\rm s}$ oscillations. The flavour (b or $\rm \bar{b}$) at decay is determined from the lepton charge while the flavour at production is determined from jet charge or the charge of a second lepton, where available. The experiment was not able to resolve the oscillatory behaviour, and we deduce that the ${\rm B}^0_{\rm s}$ oscillation frequency $\Delta m_{\rm s} > 5.2$ ps$^{-1}$ at the 95% confidence level.

Abstract: A multidimensional study of local multiplicity fluctuations and multiparticle correlations of hadrons produced in Z decays is performed. The study is based on the data sample of more than 4 million events recorded with the OPAL detector at LEP. The fluctuations and correlations are analysed in terms of the normalized scaled factorial moments and cumulants up to the fifth order. The moments are observed to have intermittency-like behaviour, which is found to be more pronounced with increasing dimension. The large data sample allows for the first time a study of the factorial cumulants in e+e- annihilation. The analysis of the cumulants shows the existence of genuine multiparticle correlations with a strong intermittency rise up to higher orders. These correlations are found to be stronger in higher dimensions. The decomposition of the factorial moments into lower-order correlations that the dynamical fluctuations have important contributions from genuine many-particle correlations. The Monte Carlo models JETSET 7.4 and HERWIG 5.9 are found to reproduce the trend of the measured moments and cumulants but they underestimate the magnitudes. The results are found to be consistent with QCD jet formation dynamics, although additional contributions from other mechanisms in the hadronization process cannot be excluded.

Abstract: The product branching ratio, $f ({\rm b} \to \Lambda_{\rm b}) \cdot{\rm BR} (\Lambda_{\rm b} \to \Lambda{\rm X})$, where $\Lambda_{\rm b}$ denotes any weakly-decaying b–baryon, has been measured using the OPAL detector at LEP. $\Lambda_{\rm b}$'s are selected by the presence of energetic $\Lambda$ particles in bottom events tagged by the presence of displaced secondary vertices. A fit to the momenta of the $\Lambda$ particles separates signal from B meson and fragmentation backgrounds.

Abstract: Photonic events with large missing energy have been observed in $\mathrm e^+e^-$ collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 130, 136 and 183 GeV collected in 1997 using the OPAL detector at LEP. Results are presented for event topologies with a single photon and missing transverse energy or with an acoplanar photon pair. Cross-section measurements are performed within the kinematic acceptance of each selection. These results are compared with the expectations from the Standard Model process ${\rm e}^+{\rm e}^-\to\nu\overline{\nu}$ + photon(s). No evidence is observed for new physics contributions to these final states. Using the data at $\sqrt{s}$ = 183 GeV, upper limits on ${\sigma({\rm e^+e^-}\to{\rm XY})\cdot{\rm BR}(\rm X \to Y \gamma)}$ and ${\sigma({\rm e^+e^-}\to{\rm XX})\cdot{\rm BR}^2(\rm X \to Y \gamma)}$ are derived for the case of stable and invisible Y. These limits apply to single and pair production of excited neutrinos ( $\rm X = \nu^*, Y = \nu$ ), to neutralino production ( $\rm X={{\tilde{\chi}}^{0}}_{2}, Y={{\tilde{\chi}}^{0}}_{1}$ ) and to supersymmetric models in which $\rm X = {{\tilde{\chi}}^{0}}_{1}$ and $\rm Y=\tilde{\mathrm{G}}$ is a light gravitino.

Abstract: Fragmentation functions for charged particles in ${\rm Z}^0 \rightarrow {\rm q}\bar{\rm q}$ events have been measured for bottom (b), charm (c) and light (uds) quarks as well as for all flavours together. The results are based on data recorded between 1990 and 1995 using the OPAL detector at LEP. Event samples with different flavour compositions were formed using reconstructed ${\rm D}^{*\pm}$ mesons and secondary vertices. The $\xi_{\rm p} =\ln(1/x_{\rm p})$ distributions and the position of their maxima $\xi_0$ are also presented separately for uds, c and b quark events. The fragmentation function for b quarks is significantly softer than for uds quarks.

Abstract: An investigation of CP violation was performed using a total of 24 candidates for B0→J/ψK0SB0→J/ψKS0 decay, with a purity of about 60%. These events were selected from 4.4 million hadronic Z0Z0 decays recorded by the OPAL detector at LEP. An analysis procedure, involving techniques to reconstruct the proper decay times and tag the produced b-flavours, B0B0 or B¯0B¯0 , has been developed to allow a first direct study of the time dependent CP asymmetry that, in the Standard Model, is sin2βsin⁡2β . The result is where the first error is statistical and the second systematic. This result is used to determine probabilities for different values of sin2βsin⁡2β in the physical region from −1−1 to +1.

Abstract: In e+e2212 collisions at centre-of-mass energies around 91 GeV, D*0 mesons have been reconstructed using data collected with the OPAL detector at LEP. The hadronisation fraction has been measured to be f(c→D*0)=0.218±0.054±0.045±0.007, where the errors correspond to the statistical and systematic errors specific to this analysis, and to systematic uncertainties from externally measured branching fractions, respectively. Together with previous OPAL measurements of the hadronisation fractions of other charmed mesons, this value is used to investigate the relative production of observed vector and pseudoscalar charmed mesons in $Z^0 \to c\bar c$ decays. The production ratio is determined to be PeffV = V/(V+P)=0.57±0.05. The relative primary production of vector and pseudoscalar mesons, Pvrim, is studied in the context of the production and decay of orbitally excited charmed resonances. The first measurement of the inclusive Ds*+ production rate in hadronic Z0 decays is presented.

Abstract: An upper limit for the $\tau$–neutrino mass has been determined from the decay $\tau\rightarrow 5\pi^{\pm}\nu_{\tau}$ using data collected with the OPAL detector from 1991 to 1995 in $\rm e^{+}e^{-}$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}\approx M_\mathrm{Z}$. A limit of 43.2 MeV at 95% CL is obtained using a two–dimensional method in the $5\pi$ invariant mass and energy distribution from 22 selected events. Combining this result with OPAL's previously published measurement using $\rm \tau^{+}\tau^{-}\rightarrow 3h^{\pm}\bar{\nu}_{\tau}+3h^{\mp}\nu_{\tau}$ decays, a new combined limit of \(m_{\nu_{\tau}}

Abstract: Bose-Einstein Correlations (BEC) of three identical charged pions were studied in $4 \times 10^6$ hadronic ${\rm Z}^0$ decays recorded with the OPAL detector at LEP. The genuine three-pion correlations, corrected for the Coulomb effect, were separated from the known two-pion correlations by a new subtraction procedure. A significant genuine three-pion BEC enhancement near threshold was observed having an emitter source radius of $r_3 = 0.580 \pm 0.004 \mbox{ (stat.)} \pm 0.029 \mbox{ (syst.)} \mbox{ fm}$ and a strength of $\lambda_3 = 0.504 \pm 0.010 \mbox{ (stat.)}\pm 0.041 \mbox{ (syst.)}$ . The Coulomb correction was found to increase the $\lambda_3$ value by $\sim $ 9% and to reduce $r_3$ by $\sim $ 6%. The measured $\lambda_3$ corresponds to a value of $0.707 \pm 0.014 \mbox{ (stat.)} \pm 0.078 \mbox{ (syst.)}$ when one takes into account the three-pion sample purity. A relation between the two-pion and the three-pion source parameters is discussed.

Abstract: Inclusive production of the ${\rm f_0}(980)$, ${\rm f}_2(1270)$ and $\phi(1020)$ resonances has been studied in a sample of 4.3 million hadronic ${\rm Z}^0$ decays from the OPAL experiment at LEP. A coupled channel analysis has been used for the ${\rm f}_0$ in simultaneous fits to the resonances in inclusive $\pi^+\pi^-$ and ${\rm K^+K^-}$ mass spectra. Fragmentation functions are reported for the three states. Total inclusive rates are measured to be $0.141 \pm 0.007 \pm 0.011$${\rm f}_0$, $0.155\pm0.011\pm0.018$${\rm f}_2$ and $0.091\pm0.002\pm0.003$$\phi$ mesons per hadronic ${\rm Z}^0$ decay. The production properties of the ${\rm f}_0$, including those in three-jet events, are compared with those of the ${\rm f}_2$ and $\phi$, and with the Lund string model of hadron production. All measurements are consistent with the hypothesis that the ${\rm f_0}(980)$ is a conventional ${\rm q\bar q}$ scalar meson.

Abstract: Photonic events with large missing energy have been observed in $\mathrm{e^+e^-}$ collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 130, 136, 161 and 172 GeV using the OPAL detector at LEP. Results are presented based on search topologies designed to select events with a single photon and missing transverse energy or events with a pair of acoplanar photons. In both search topologies, cross-section measurements are performed within the kinematic acceptance of the selection. These results are compared with the expectations from the Standard Model processes ${\rm e^+e^-}\to \nu\overline\nu \gamma (\gamma )$ (single-photon) and ${\rm e^+e^-}\to \nu\overline\nu \gamma \gamma (\gamma )$ (acoplanar-photons). No evidence is observed for new physics contributions to these final states. Upper limits on $\sigma({\rm e^+e^- \to XY)\cdot BR(X\to Y\gamma })$ and $\sigma({\rm e^+e^- \to XX)\cdot BR^2(X\to Y\gamma })$ are derived for the case of stable and invisible Y. These limits apply to single and pair production of excited neutrinos (${\rm X}= \nu^*,{\rm Y}= \nu$), to neutralino production (${\rm X}=\tilde\chi^0_2, {\rm Y}=\tilde\chi^0_1$), and to supersymmetric models in which ${\rm X}= \tilde\chi^0_1$ and ${\rm Y}=\tilde{\rm G}$ is a light gravitino. For the latter scenario, the results of the acoplanar-photons search are used to provide mode l-dependent lower limits on the mass of the lightest neutralino.

Abstract: Ion implantation, as an efficient surface processing technique, has developed to include the implantation of various metallic ions for improving not only wear properties, but also such other surface properties as solid lubrication, fatigue, chemical stability, and engineering reliability. The high-dose metal ion implantation that can be accumulated in a short time over a relatively large implanting area makes metal vapor vacuum arc (MEVVA) source ion implantation well suited to practical surface engineering modification applications.

Abstract: We present three cases of post-transfusion purpura (PTP) developing in the immediate post operative period after open heart surgery. All had developed platelet specific antibodies and severe anaphylactoid reactions occurred to platelet transfusion in two cases. Treatment with high dose intravenous immunoglobulin (IV IgG) led to complete recovery in two patients one of whom demonstrated a marked biphasic response pattern to therapy. The other died from congestive cardiac failure. PTP is a potentially fatal complication which may well become more frequent with increasing blood product usage.
