152. Decomposing uncertainties in the future terrestrial carbon budget associated with emission scenario, climate projection, and ecosystem simulation using the ISI-MIP result

Abstract: Changes to global net primary production (NPP), vegetation biomass carbon (VegC), and soil organic carbon (SOC) estimated by six global vegetation models (GVM) obtained from an Inter-Sectoral Impact Model Intercomparison Project study were examined. Simulation results were obtained using five global climate models (GCM) forced with four representative concentration pathway (RCP) scenarios. To clarify which component (emission scenarios, climate projections, or global vegetation models) contributes the most to uncertainties in projected global terrestrial C cycling by 2100, analysis of variance (ANOVA) and wavelet clustering were applied to 70 projected simulation sets. In the end of simulation period, the changes from the year of 2000 in all three variables considerably varied from net negative to positive values. ANOVA revealed that the main sources of uncertainty are different among variables and depend on the projection period. We determined that in the global VegC, and SOC projections, GVMs dominate uncertainties (60 and 90%, respectively) rather than climate driving scenarios, i.e., RCPs and GCMs. These results suggested that we don't have still enough resolution among each RCP scenario to evaluate climate change impacts on ecosystem conditions in global terrestrial C cycling. In addition, we found that the contributions of each uncertainty source were spatio-temporally heterogeneous and differed among the GVM variables. The dominant uncertainty source for changes in NPP and VegC varies along the climatic gradient. The contribution of GVM to the uncertainty decreases as the climate division gets cooler (from ca. 80% in the equatorial division to 40% in the snow climatic division). To evaluate the effects of climate change on ecosystems with practical resolution in RCP scenarios, GVMs require further improvement to reduce the uncertainties in global C cycling as much as, if not more than, GCMs. Our study suggests that the improvement of GVMs is a priority for the reduction of total uncertainties in projected C cycling for climate impact assessments.

Abstract: The e(+)e(-) -> pi(+)pi(-) pi(0)chi(bj) ( J = 0, 1, 2) processes are studied using a 118 fb(-1) data sample acquired with the Belle detector at a center-of-mass energy of 10.867 GeV. Unambiguous pi(+)pi(-) pi(0)chi(bj) ( J = 1, 2), omega chi(b1) signals are observed, and indication for omega chi(b2) is seen, both for the first time, and the corresponding cross section measurements are presented. No significant pi(+)pi(-) pi(0)chi(b0) or omega chi(b0) signals are observed, and 90% confidence level upper limits on the cross sections for these two processes are obtained. In the pi(+)pi(-) pi(0) invariant mass spectrum, significant non-omega signals are also observed. We search for the X(3872)-like state (named X-b) decaying into omega Upsilon(1S); no significant signal is observed with a mass between 10.55 and 10.65 GeV= c(2).

Abstract: We present the first model-independent measurement of the absolute branching fraction of the Lambda(+)(c) -> pK(-)pi(+)decay using a data sample of 978 fb(-1) collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e(+)e(-) collider. The number of Lambda(+)(c) baryons is determined by reconstructing the recoiling D(*)(-)(p) over bar pi(+)system in events of the type e(+)e(-) -> D(*)(-)(p) over bar pi(+)Lambda(+)(c). The branching fraction is measured to be B(Lambda(+)(c) -> pK(-)pi(+)) = (6.84 +/- 0.24(-0.27)(+0.21))%, where the first and second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively.

Abstract: We present a measurement of the branching fractions and charge- parity-( CP-) violating parameters in B..K decays. The results are obtained from the final data sample containing 772 x 10(6) BB _ pairs collected at the.d4S_ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric- energy e_e- collider. We obtain the branching fractions BdB0 0 _d4.5 0.4dstat_ 0.3dsyst_x10- 6; BdB_..K__ d6.80.4dstat_ 0.4dsyst__x10- 6 which are in agreement with their respective current world averages. For the CP- violating parameters, we obtain A.K0 S - 0.36 +/- 0.19dstat_ 0.05dsyst_; S.K0 S _0.91 0.32dstat_ 0.05dsyst_; A.K_ - 0.03 +/- 0.04dstat_ 0.01dsyst_; where A and S represent the direct and mixing- induced CP asymmetry, respectively. We find no evidence of CP violation in the decay channel B_..K_; however, we obtain the first evidence of CP violation in the B0..K0 S decay channel at the level of 3.1 standard deviations.

Abstract: Krokinobacter eikastus rhodopsin 2 (KR2) is the first light-driven Na+ pump discovered, and is viewed as a potential next-generation optogenetics tool. Since the positively charged Schiff base proton, located within the ion-conducting pathway of all light-driven ion pumps, was thought to prohibit the transport of a non-proton cation, the discovery of KR2 raised the question of how it achieves Na+ transport. Here we present crystal structures of KR2 under neutral and acidic conditions, which represent the resting and M-like intermediate states, respectively. Structural and spectroscopic analyses revealed the gating mechanism, whereby the flipping of Asp116 sequesters the Schiff base proton from the conducting pathway to facilitate Na+ transport. Together with the structure-based engineering of the first light-driven K+ pumps, electrophysiological assays in mammalian neurons and behavioural assays in a nematode, our studies reveal the molecular basis for light-driven non-proton cation pumps and thus provide a framework that may advance the development of next-generation optogenetics. Known microbial rhodopsins were classified into two groups, either outward proton pumps or inward chloride pumps, until the recent discovery of a light-driven Na+-pumping rhodopsin from the marine bacterium Krokinobacter eikastus. This novel protein, termed KR2, is attracting attention as a potential tool for use in optogenetics: its activation would change the sodium concentration of a targeted cell, not just the pH or chloride concentration. Now Osamu Nureki and colleagues have solved two X-ray crystal structures of KR2 and they use them to propose a working model for Na+ transport. Based on these structures the authors have designed several mutants of KR2 and successfully engineered a K+-transporting pump.

Abstract: We report a measurement of D-0-(D) over bar(0) mixing parameters and a search for indirect CP violation through a time-dependent amplitude analysis of D-0 -> K-S(0)pi(+)pi(-) decays. The results are based on 921 fb(-1) of data accumulated with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e(+)e(-) collider. Assuming CP conservation, we measure the mixing parameters x = (0.56 +/- 0.19(-0.09-0.09)(+0.03+0.06))% and y = (0.30 +/- 0.15(-0.05-0.06)(+0.04+0.03))%, where the errors are statistical, experimental systematic, and systematic due to the amplitude model, respectively. With CP violation allowed, the parameters vertical bar q/p vertical bar = 0.90(-0.15-0.04-0.05)(+0.16+0.05+0.06) and arg(q/p) = (- 6 +/- 11 +/- 3(-4)(+3))degrees are found to be consistent with conservation of CP symmetry in mixing and in the interference between mixing and decay, respectively.

Abstract: The cross sections of the processes e(+)e(-)-> K(+)K(-)J/Psi and K(s)(0)K(s)(0)J/Psi are measured via initial state radiation at center-of-mass energies between the threshold and 6.0 GeV using a data sample of 980 fb(-1) collected with the Belle detector on or near the r(nS) resonances, where n=1,2,..5. The cross sections for e(+)e(-)-> K(+)K(-)J/Psi are at a few pb level and the average cross section for K(s)(0)K(s)(0)J/Psi is 1.8 +/- 0.6 (stat)+/- 0.3(syst) pb between 4.4 and 5.2 GeV. All of them are consistent with previously published results with improved precision. A search for resonant structures and associated intermediate states in the cross section of the process e(+)e(-)-> K(+)K(-)J/Psi is performed.

Abstract: We report measurements of branching fractions of tau lepton decays to final states with a K-S(0) meson using a 669 fb(-1) data sample accumulated with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e(+)e(-) collider. The inclusive branching fraction is measured to be beta(tau(-) -> (KSX-)-X-0 nu(tau)) = (9.15 +/- 0.01 +/- 0.15) X 10(-3), where X- can be anything; the exclusive branching fractions are beta(tau(-) -> pi(-) K-S(0)nu(tau)) = (4.16 +/- 0.01 +/- 0.08) X 10(-3), beta(tau(-) -> K- K-S(0)nu(tau)) = (7.40 +/- 0.07 +/- 0.27) X 10(-4), beta(tau(-) -> pi(-) K-S(0)pi(0)nu(tau)) = (1.93 +/- 0.02 +/- 0.07) X 10(-3), beta(tau(-) -> K- K-S(0)pi(0)nu(tau)) = (7.48 +/- 0.10 +/- 0.37) X 10(-4), beta(tau(-) -> pi(-) (KSKS0)-K-0 nu(tau)) = (2.33 +/- 0.03 +/- 0.09) X 10(-4), beta(tau(-) -> pi(-) (KSKS0)-K-0 pi(0)nu(tau)) = (2.00 +/- 0.22 +/- 0.20) X 10(-5), where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. For each mode, the accuracy is improved over that of pre-B-factory measurements by a factor ranging from five to ten. In tau(-) -> pi(-) (KSKS0)-K-0 pi(0)nu(tau) decays, clear signals for the intermediate states tau(-) -> pi(-) f(1)(1285)nu(tau) and tau(-) -> K*- K-S(0)pi(0)nu(tau) are observed.

Abstract: We present a study of the branching fraction of the decay B-0 -> rho(0)rho(0) and the fraction of longitudinally polarized rho(0) mesons in this decay. The results are obtained from the final data sample containing 772 x 10(6) B (B) over bar pairs collected at the gamma(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e(+)e(-) collider. We find 166 +/- 59 B-0 -> rho(0)rho(0) events (including systematic uncertainties), corresponding to a branching fraction of B(B-0 -> rho(0)rho(0)) = (1.02 +/- 0.30(stat) +/- 0.15(syst)) x 10(-6) with a significance of 3.4 standard deviations and a longitudinal polarization fraction f(L) = 0.21(-0.22)(+0.18()stat) +/- 0.15(syst). We use the longitudinal polarization fraction to determine the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix angle phi(2) = (84.9 +/- 13.5)degrees through an isospin analysis in the B ->rho rho system. We furthermore find 125 +/- 41 B-0 -> f(0)rho(0) events, corresponding to B(B-0 -> f(0)rho(0)) x B(f(0) -> pi(+)pi(-)) = (0.78 +/- 0.22(stat) +/- 0.11(syst)) x 10(-6), with a significance of 3.1 standard deviations. We find no other significant contribution with the same final state, and set upper limits at 90% confidence level on the (product) branching fractions, B(B-0 -> pi(+)pi(-)pi(+)pi(-)) rho(0)pi(+)pi(-)) f(0)pi(+)pi(-)) x B(f(0) -> pi(+)pi(-)) f(0)f(0)) x B(f(0) -> pi(+)pi(-))(2) < 0.2 x 10(-6).

Abstract: We present a model of the magnetosphere around an oscillating neutron star. The electromagnetic fields are numerically solved by modeling electric charge and current induced by the stellar torsional mode, with particular emphasis on outgoing radiation passing through the magnetosphere. The current is modeled using Ohm's law, whereby an increase in conductivity results in an increase in the induced current. As a result, the fields are drastically modified, and energy flux is thereby enhanced. This behavior is however localized in the vicinity of the surface since the induced current disappears outwardly in our model, in which the exterior is assumed to gradually approach a vacuum.

Abstract: We find evidence for the semileptonic baryonic decay B- -> p (p) over barl(-)(nu) over bar (l) (l = e, mu), based on a data sample of 772 million B (B) over bar pairs collected at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy electron-positron collider. A neural-network based hadronic B-meson tagging method is used in this study. The branching fraction of B- -> p (p) over barl(-)(nu) over bar (l) is measured to be (5.8(-2.1)(+2.4)(stat) +/- 0.9(syst)) x 10(-6) with a significance of 3.2 sigma s, where lepton universality is assumed. We also estimate the corresponding upper limit: B(B- -> p (p) over barl(-)(nu) over bar (l)) < 9.6 x 10(-6) at the 90% confidence level. This measurement helps constrain the baryonic transition form factor in B decays.

Abstract: We report results of a study of doubly charmed baryons and charmed strange baryons. The analysis is performed using a 980 fb^-1 data sample collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e^+e^- collider. We search for doubly charmed baryons Xi_cc^+(+) with the Lambda_c^+K^-pi^+(pi^+) and Xi_c^0pi^+(pi^+) final states. No significant signal is observed. We also search for two excited charmed strange baryons, Xi_c(3055)^+ and Xi_c(3123)^+ with the Sigma_c^++(2455)K^- and Sigma_c^++(2520)K^- final states. The Xi_c(3055)^+ signal is observed with a significance of 6.6 standard deviations including systematic uncertainty, while no signature of the Xi_c(3123)^+ is seen. We also study properties of the Xi_c(2645)^+ and measure a width of 2.6 +- 0.2 (stat) +- 0.4 (syst) MeV/c^2, which is the first significant determination., 14 pages, 7 figures, PRD

Abstract: Channelrhodopsins (ChRs) are of great interest currently because of their important applications in optogenetics, the photostimulation of neurons. The absorption and circular dichroism (CD) spectra of C1C2, a chimera of ChR1 and ChR2 of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, have been studied experimentally and theoretically. The visible absorption spectrum of C1C2 shows vibronic fine structure in the 470 nm band, consistent with the relatively nonpolar binding site. The CD spectrum has a negative band at 492 nm (Δε(max) = -6.17 M(-1) cm(-1)) and a positive band at 434 nm (Δε(max) = +6.65 M(-1) cm(-1)), indicating exciton coupling within the C1C2 dimer. Time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) calculations are reported for three models of the C1C2 chromophore: (1) the isolated protonated retinal Schiff base (retPSB); (2) an ion pair, including the retPSB chromophore, two carboxylate side chains (Asp 292, Glu 162), modeled by acetate, and a water molecule; and (3) a hybrid quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical (QM/MM) model depicting the binding pocket, in which the QM part consists of the same ion pair as that in (2) and the MM part consists of the protein residues surrounding the ion pair within 10 Å. For each of these models, the CD of both the monomer and the dimer was calculated with TDDFT. For the dimer, DeVoe polarizability theory and exciton calculations were also performed. The exciton calculations were supplemented by calculations of the coupling of the retinal transition with aromatic and peptide group transitions. For the dimer, all three methods and three models give a long-wavelength C2-axis-polarized band, negative in CD, and a short-wavelength band polarized perpendicular to the C2 axis with positive CD, differing in wavelength by 1-5 nm. Only the retPSB model gives an exciton couplet that agrees qualitatively with experiment. The other two models give a predominantly or solely positive band. We further analyze an N-terminal truncated mutant because it was assumed that the N-terminal domain has a crucial role in the dimerization of ChRs. However, the CD spectrum of this mutant has an exciton couplet comparable to that of the wild-type, demonstrating that it is dimeric. Patch-clamp experiments suggest that the N-terminal domain is involved in protein stabilization and channel kinetics rather than dimerization or channel activity.

Abstract: The lifetime of the $\tau$-lepton is measured using the process $e^+e^-\rightarrow\tau^+\tau^-$, where both $\tau$-leptons decay to $3\pi\nu_\tau$. The result for the mean lifetime, based on $711\,\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of data collected with the Belle detector at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance and $60\,\mathrm{MeV}$ below, is $\tau = (290.17 \pm 0.53(\mathrm{stat.}) \pm 0.33(\mathrm{syst.}))\cdot10^{-15}\,\mathrm{s}$. The first measurement of the lifetime difference between $\tau^+$ and $\tau^-$ is performed. The upper limit on the relative lifetime difference between positive and negative $\tau$-leptons is $|\Delta\tau| / \tau < 7.0 \times 10^{-3}$ at 90% CL., Comment: 17 pages, 4 figures.

Abstract: The objective of this study was to assess the accuracy of a newly developed portable inclinometer (BackTalk) to capture extreme trunk postural data in occupational settings. The device provides information about preselected flexion angles and their frequency. Four devices were simultaneously compared with an electrogoniometer at various combinations of speed and symmetric/asymmetric postures. The results showed that, overall, the BackTalk devices were very successful in detecting sagittal postures at flexion angles of 30° and 45° for all three speeds. However, the average success rate for identifying postures at 15° was only 54.3%. Therefore, if the device is to be used in situations that are highly dynamic and involve small sagittal angles, it may have a high rate of missed recordings. Nervertheless, the BackTalk could be a useful research tool for quantifying the frequency and level of postural load experienced by industrial workers.

The number of Λ(c)(+) baryons is determined by reconstructing the recoiling D((*)-) pπ(+) system in events of the type e(+)e(-) → D((*)-) pπ(+)Λ(c)(+). The branching fraction is measured to be B(Λ(c)(+) → pK(-)π(+)) = (6.84 ± 0.24(-0.27)(+0.21))%, where the first and second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively.

We also determine the S-wave contribution within the φ(1020) mass region. The absolute branching fractions are B[Bs0→J/ψφ(1020)]=(1. 25±0.07(stat)±0.08(syst)±0.22(fs))×10 -3, B[Bs0→J/ψf2′(1525)]=(0.26±0.06(stat) ±0.02(syst)±0.05(fs))×10-3, and B[Bs0→J/ψK+K-]=(1.01±0.09(stat)±0. 10(syst)±0.18(fs))×10-3, where the last systematic error is due to the branching fraction of bb→Bs(*) Bs(*). The branching fraction ratio is found to be B[Bs0→J/ ψf2′(1525)]/B[Bs0→J/ψφ(1020)]=(21.5±4.9(stat) ±2.6(syst))%. All results are based on a 121.4 fb-1 data sample collected at the Υ(5S) resonance by the Belle experiment at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider. © 2013 American Physical Society.

Abstract: The microstructure of ZnSe/ZnTe multiple quantum well-based pseudo-ohmic contacts to p-ZnSe was investigated using transmission electron microscopy and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. In the case of samples consisting of five ZnSe/ZnTe multiple quantum wells, both pure edge Lomer dislocations and 60° dislocations were identified at the interface between the ZnSe/ZnTe multiple quantum wells and the ZnTe overlayer, along with partial dislocations bounding stacking faults. The dominant dislocations at the interface are Lomer dislocations. In the case of samples grown under group II-rich conditions, the interface exhibits corrugations. At the top and bottom of the corrugations, the Lomer dislocations are dominant and in the slope of the corrugations, 60° dislocations are dominant. In the case of samples grown using migration-enhanced epitaxy, V-shaped defects consisting of three dislocations associated with two stacking faults are formed. The total Burgers vector of the V-shaped defects is a...

Abstract: The phase transformation of less than 6 mol % Sc2O3-doped tetragonal zirconia polycrystals consisting of fine grains has been investigated. Dense bodies with homogeneous microstructures doped with 3.5 to 5 mol % Sc2O3 sintered at 1300°C for 1 h consisted mostly of a tetragonal phase. Within 20 h of aging under hydrothermal conditions at 180°C, the amount of monoclinic ZrO2 on the surface of the 4 to 5 mol % Sc2O3-doped specimens sintered at 1400°C was saturated and reached a constant value, and the increase in the amount of monoclinic ZrO2 showed a sigmoidal type of kinetic transformation. The apparent activation energy for the phase transformation in Sc2O3-doped zirconia was 84–91 kJ/mol. Based on the hydrothermal aging results, the possible existence of a larger two-phase (cubic+tetragonal) region is suggested, and the phase boundary between the cubic+tetragonal and cubic phase in the ZrO2-Sc2O3 system is proposed.

Abstract: Catalytic ignition of hydrogen-oxygen on platinum at atmospheric pressure is studied experimentally. The hydrogen-oxygen mixtures are diluted with nitrogen to prevent the homogeneous ignition. The parameters are relative hydrogen concentration and dilution ratio, a mole fraction of nitrogen. The surface temperature is measured with an R-type thermocouple. The time histories of surface temperature show an inflection point, and the catalytic ignition temperature is defined as the temperature at the inflection point. As a result, the ignition temperature is increased with the dilution ratio and shows a minimum at a certain relative hydrogen concentration. The reciprocal ignition temperature is proportional to the natural log of total reactant mole fraction, and the proportional constants are almost the same in all relative hydrogen concentration. If the catalytic ignition has occurred, an abrupt transition from a kinetically controlled system to one controlled by mass transport is produced. It is approximated that the surface conditions could be evaluated in a mass transport controlled system as the time needed to change the systems is very short and that the gaseous compositions are the same before the ignition has occurred as the surface reaction rate is much faster than the velocity of the mass transport. To analyze the relation between the ignition temperature and the reactant concentrations simply, an overall reaction model with an Arrhenius expression is used, and the orders of reaction of the adsorbed H and O are one in the expression. The expression includes the desorption of the excess of the adsorbed H. The expression explained the dependence of the ignition temperature on the dilution ratio quantitatively and denoted a minimum ignition temperature at a certain relative hydrogen concentration as shown in the experimental results.

Abstract: Experimental and numerical studies have been conducted on the hot surface ignition of methane-air mixtures in a. closed vessel. Experiments without the feedback control of surface temperature have been performed using platinum strip in normal gravity. The results indicate the increase of the surface temperature due to the heat release of catalytic reaction. In order to define the initial condition and make the analysis simple, the following control unit was developed: which heats the wire to the setting temperature in a very short time, and maintains the wire temperature constant until ignition. Experiments with the feedback control have been performed using nickel wire and platinum wire in normal gravity and microgravity. The results describe the effects of natural convection, catalytic reaction, and oxidation of nickel on ignition delay and ignition temperature. Numerical calculations, includingcatalytic reaction for platinum, have been performed to analyze the experimental results in microgravity. Nume...

Abstract: Accurate assessment of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and their redistribution among the atmosphere, ocean, and terrestrial biosphere is important to better understand the global carbon cycle, support the development of climate policies, and project future climate change. Here we describe datasets and a methodology to quantify all major components of the global carbon budget, including their uncertainties, based on the combination of a range of data, algorithms, statistics and model estimates and their interpretation by a broad scientific community. We discuss changes compared to previous estimates consistency within and among components, alongside methodology and data limitations. CO2 emissions from fossil-fuel combustion and cement production (EFF) are based on energy statistics, while emissions from Land-Use Change (ELUC), including deforestation, are based on combined evidence from land-cover change data, fire activity in regions undergoing deforestation, and models. The global atmospheric CO2 concentration is measured directly and its rate of growth (GATM) is computed from the annual changes in concentration. The mean ocean CO2 sink (SOCEAN) is based on observations from the 1990s, while the annual anomalies and trends are estimated with ocean models. The variability in SOCEAN is evaluated for the first time in this budget with data products based on surveys of ocean CO2 measurements. The global residual terrestrial CO2 sink (SLAND) is estimated by the difference of the other terms of the global carbon budget and compared to results of Dynamic Global Vegetation Models. All uncertainties are reported as ± 1 sigma, reflecting the current capacity to characterise the annual estimates of each component of the global carbon budget. For the last decade available (2003–2012), EFF was 8.6 ± 0.4 GtC yr−1, ELUC 0.8 ± 0.5 GtC yr−1, GATM 4.3 ± 0.1 GtC yr−1, SOCEAN 2.6 ± 0.5 GtC yr−1, and SLAND 2.6 ± 0.8 GtC yr−1. For year 2012 alone, EFF grew to 9.7 ± 0.5 GtC yr−1, 2.2% above 2011, reflecting a continued trend in these emissions; GATM was 5.2 ± 0.2 GtC yr−1, SOCEAN was 2.9 ± 0.5 GtC yr−1, and assuming and ELUC of 0.9 ± 0.5 GtC yr−1 (based on 2001–2010 average), SLAND was 2.5 ± 0.9 GtC yr−1. GATM was high in 2012 compared to the 2003–2012 average, almost entirely reflecting the high EFF. The global atmospheric CO2 concentration reached 392.52 ± 0.10 ppm on average over 2012. We estimate that EFF will increase by 2.1% (1.1–3.1%) to 9.9 ± 0.5 GtC in 2013, 61% above emissions in 1990, based on projections of World Gross Domestic Product and recent changes in the carbon intensity of the economy. With this projection, cumulative emissions of CO2 will reach about 550 ± 60 GtC for 1870–2013, 70% from EFF (390 ± 20 GtC) and 30% from ELUC (160 ± 55 GtC). This paper is intended to provide a baseline to keep track of annual carbon budgets in the future. All data presented here can be downloaded from the Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center (10.3334/CDIAC/GCP_2013_v1.1).

We obtain the CP violation parameters ACP(B0→π+π-)=+0.33±0.06(stat)±0.03(syst),SCP(B0→π+π-)=-0.64±0.08(stat)±0.03(syst),where ACP and SCP represent the direct and mixing-induced CP asymmetries in B0→π+π- decays, respectively.

Abstract: We report a study of the suppressed decay ${B}^{\ensuremath{-}}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}D{K}^{\ensuremath{-}}$, $D\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{K}^{+}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}$, where $D$ denotes either a ${D}^{0}$ or a ${\overline{D}}^{0}$ meson. The decay is sensitive to the $CP$ -violating parameter ${\ensuremath{\phi}}_{3}$. Using a data sample of $772\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{6}$ $B\overline{B}$ pairs collected at the $\ensuremath{\Upsilon}(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector, we measure the ratio of branching fractions of the above suppressed decay to the favored decay ${B}^{\ensuremath{-}}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}D{K}^{\ensuremath{-}}$, $D\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{K}^{\ensuremath{-}}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}$. Our result is ${R}_{DK}=[1.98\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.62(\mathrm{stat})\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.24(\mathrm{syst})]\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}2}$, which indicates the first evidence of the signal for this suppressed decay with a significance of 3.2 standard deviations. We measure the direct $CP$ asymmetry between the suppressed ${B}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ and ${B}^{+}$ decays to be ${A}_{DK}=0.41\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.30(\mathrm{stat})\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.05(\mathrm{syst})$. We also report measurements for the analogous quantities ${R}_{D\ensuremath{\pi}}$ and ${A}_{D\ensuremath{\pi}}$ for the decay ${B}^{\ensuremath{-}}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}D{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}$, $D\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{K}^{+}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}$.

Abstract: We report the results of several studies of the Λc+π+π-X final state in continuum e+e- annihilation data collected by the Belle detector. An analysis of angular distributions in Λc(2880)+→Σc(2455)0, ++π+,- decays strongly favors a Λc(2880)+ spin assignment of 52 over 32 or 12. We find evidence for Λc(2880)+→Σc(2520)0,++π+,- decay and measure the ratio of Λc(2880)+ partial widths Γ(Σc(2520)π)/Γ(Σc(2455)π)=0.225±0. 062±0.025. This value favors the Λc(2880)+ spin-parity assignment of 52+ over 52-. We also report the first observation of Λc(2940) +→Σc(2455)0,++π+,- decay and measure Λc(2880)+ and Λc(2940)+ mass and width parameters. These studies are based on a 553fb-1 data sample collected at or near the Υ(4S) resonance at the KEKB collider. © 2007 The American Physical Society.

Abstract: We report the first observation of the Cabibbo-suppressed decays $\Xi_c^0\rightarrow \Xi^- K^+$, $\Xi_c^0\ra\Lambda K^+ K^-$ and $\Xi_c^0\rightarrow \Lambda \phi$, using a data sample of $711\, \mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+ e^-$ collider. We measure the ratios of branching fractions to be $\frac{{\cal B}(\Xi_c^0\ra \Xi^- K^+)}{{\cal B}(\Xi^0_c\ra\Xi^-\pi^+)}=(2.75\pm 0.51\pm 0.25)\times 10^{-2}$, $\frac{{\cal B}(\Xi_c^0\ra\Lambda K^+ K^-)}{{\cal B}(\Xi_c^0\rightarrow\Xi^- \pi^+)}=(2.86\pm 0.61\pm 0.24)\times 10^{-2}$ and $\frac{{\cal B}(\Xi_c^0\ra \Lambda\phi)}{{\cal B}(\Xi^0_c\ra\Xi^-\pi^+)}=(3.43\pm 0.58\pm 0.32)\times 10^{-2}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic., Comment: 8 pages, 6 figures, submitted to PRD(RC)

Abstract: We search for bottomonium states in gamma(2S) -> (b (b) over bar)gamma decays with an integrated luminosity of 24.7 fb(-1) recorded at the gamma(2S) resonance with the Belle detector at KEK, containing (157.8 +/- 3.6) x 10(6) gamma(2S) events. The (b (b) over bar) system is reconstructed in 26 exclusive hadronic final states composed of charged pions, kaons, protons, and K-0(S) mesons. We find no evidence for the state recently observed around 9975 MeV (X-b (b) over bar) in an analysis based on a data sample of 9.3 x 10(6) gamma(2S) events collected with the CLEO III detector. We set a 90% confidence level upper limit on the branching fraction B[gamma(2S) -> X-b (b) over bar gamma] x Sigma(i) B[X-b (b) over bar -> h(i)] eta(b)(1S)gamma] x Sigma B-i[eta(b)(1S) -> h(i)] < 3.7 x 10(-6).

Abstract: Measurements of inclusive differential cross sections for charged pion and kaon production in e+e- annihilation have been carried out at a center-of-mass energy of √s=10.52 GeV. The measurements were performed with the Belle detector at the KEKB e+e- collider using a data sample containing 113×106 e+e -→qq events, where q={u,d,s,c}. We present charge-integrated differential cross sections dσh±/dz for h±={π±,K±} as a function of the relative hadron energy z=2Eh/√s from 0.2 to 0.98. The combined statistical and systematic uncertainties for π± (K±) are 4% (4%) at z∼0.6 and 15% (24%) at z∼0.9. The cross sections are the first measurements of the z dependence of pion and kaon production for z>0.7 as well as the first precision cross section measurements at a center-of-mass energy far below the Z0 resonance used by the experiments at LEP and SLC. © 2013 American Physical Society.

Abstract: We present measurements of absolute branching fractions of hadronic and leptonic Ds+ decays to K- K+ pi+, anti-K0 K+, eta pi+, mu+ nu_mu and tau+ nu_tau and report a search for the leptonic Ds+ to e+ nu_e decays. The results are obtained from a data sample of 913 fb^-1 collected at or near the Y(4S) and Y(5S) resonances with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider. The branching fractions of hadronic decays are measured to be Br(Ds+ -> K- K+ pi+) = (5.06 +- 0.15 +- 0.21)%, Br(Ds+ -> anti-K0 K+) = (2.95 +- 0.11 +- 0.09)%, and Br(Ds+ -> eta pi+) = (1.82 +- 0.14 +- 0.07)%, where the first and second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. The branching fractions of leptonic decays are measured to be Br(Ds+ -> mu+ nu_mu) = (0.531 +- 0.028 +- 0.020)%, and Br(Ds+ -> tau+ nu_tau) = (5.70 +- 0.21 +0.31-0.30)%, which are combined to determine the Ds+ meson decay constant f_Ds = (255.5 +- 4.2 +- 5.1) MeV. We find no significant signal for Ds+ -> e+ nu_e decays and set an upper limit of Br(Ds+ -> e+ nu_e) < 1.0 (0.83) x 10^-4 at 95% (90%) confidence level., 31 pages, 9 figures

Abstract: Using samples of 102 million Υ(1S) and 158 million Υ(2S) events collected with the Belle detector, we study exclusive hadronic decays of these two bottomonium resonances to KS0K+π- and charge-conjugate (c.c.) states, π+π-π0π0, and π+π-π0, and to the two-body Vector-Pseudoscalar (K*(892)0K0+c.c., K*(892)-K ++c.c., ωπ0, and ρπ) final states. For the first time, signals are observed in the modes Υ(1S)→KS0K+π -+c.c., π+π-π0π0, and Υ(2S)→π+π-π0π0, and evidence is found for the modes Υ(1S)→π+π-π0, K*(892)0K0+c.c., and Υ(2S)→KS0K +π-+c.c. Branching fractions are measured for all the processes, while 90% confidence level upper limits on the branching fractions are also set for the modes with a statistical significance of less than 3σ. The ratios of the branching fractions of Υ(2S) and Υ(1S) decays into the same final state are used to test a perturbative QCD prediction for Okubo-Zweig-Iizuka-suppressed bottomonium decays. © 2013 American Physical Society.

Abstract: Proton-dependent oligopeptide transporters (POTs) are major facilitator superfamily (MFS) proteins that mediate the uptake of peptides and peptide-like molecules, using the inwardly directed H + gradient across the membrane. The human POT family transporter peptide transporter 1 is present in the brush border membrane of the small intestine and is involved in the uptake of nutrient peptides and drug molecules such as β-lactam antibiotics. Although previous studies have provided insight into the overall structure of the POT family transporters, the question of how transport is coupled to both peptide and H + binding remains unanswered. Here we report the high-resolution crystal structures of a bacterial POT family transporter, including its complex with a dipeptide analog, alafosfalin. These structures revealed the key mechanistic and functional roles for a conserved glutamate residue (Glu310) in the peptide binding site. Integrated structural, biochemical, and computational analyses suggested a mechanism for H + -coupled peptide symport in which protonated Glu310 first binds the carboxyl group of the peptide substrate. The deprotonation of Glu310 in the inward open state triggers the release of the bound peptide toward the intracellular space and salt bridge formation between Glu310 and Arg43 to induce the state transition to the occluded conformation.

Abstract: We report a search for the rare decays B -> h(*) nu nubar, where h(*) stands for K+, Ks0, K*+, K*0, pi+, pi0, rho+, rho0 and phi. The results are obtained from a 711 fb-1 data sample that contains 772 million BB pairs collected at the Y(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB e+e- collider. We search for signal candidates by fully reconstructing a hadronic decay of the accompanying B meson and requiring a single h(*) meson left on the signal side. No significant signal is observed and we set upper limits on the branching fractions at 90% confidence level. The measurements of B+ -> K*+ nu nubar, B+ -> pi+ nu nubar, B0 -> pi0 nu nubar and B0 -> rho^0 nu nubar provide the world's currently most restrictive limits.

Abstract: We search for bottomonium states in Υ(2S) → (bb)γ decays with an integrated luminosity of 24.7 fb(-1) recorded at the Υ(2S) resonance with the Belle detector at KEK, containing (157.8±3.6)×10(6) Υ(2S) events. The (bb) system is reconstructed in 26 exclusive hadronic final states composed of charged pions, kaons, protons, and K(S)(0) mesons. We find no evidence for the state recently observed around 9975 MeV (X(bb)) in an analysis based on a data sample of 9.3×10(6) Υ(2S) events collected with the CLEO III detector. We set a 90% confidence level upper limit on the branching fraction B[Υ(2S) → X(bb)γ] × ∑(i)B[X(bb) → h(i)]4.9×10(-6), summed over the exclusive hadronic final states employed in our analysis. This result is an order of magnitude smaller than the measurement reported with CLEO data. We also set an upper limit for the ηb(1S) state of B[Υ(2S) → ηb(1S)γ] × ∑(i)B[ηb(1S) → h(i)]3.7×10(-6).

Abstract: We report the results of a high-statistics search for $H$ dibaryon production in inclusive $\ensuremath{\Upsilon}(1S)$ and $\ensuremath{\Upsilon}(2S)$ decays. No indication of an $H$ dibaryon with a mass near the ${M}_{H}=2{m}_{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}$ threshold is seen in either the $H\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\Lambda}p{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ or $\ensuremath{\Lambda}\ensuremath{\Lambda}$ decay channels and 90% confidence level branching-fraction upper limits are set that are between one and two orders of magnitude below the measured branching fractions for inclusive $\ensuremath{\Upsilon}(1S)$ and $\ensuremath{\Upsilon}(2S)$ decays to antideuterons. Since $\ensuremath{\Upsilon}(1S,2S)$ decays produce flavor-$SU(3)$-symmetric final states, these results put stringent constraints on $H$ dibaryon properties. The results are based on analyses of 102 million $\ensuremath{\Upsilon}(1S)$ and 158 million $\ensuremath{\Upsilon}(2S)$ events collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB ${e}^{+}{e}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ collider.

Abstract: We report a measurement of the inclusive semileptonic B0s branching fraction in a 121 fb⁻¹ data sample collected near the Υ(5S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric energy e⁺e⁻ collider. Events containing B⁰(*)sB¯¯¯⁰(*)s pairs are selected by reconstructing a tag side D⁺s and identifying a signal side lepton l⁺ (l=e, μ) that is required to have the same-sign charge to ensure that both originate from different B⁰s mesons. The B⁰s→X⁻l⁺νl branching fraction is extracted from the ratio of the measured yields of D⁺s mesons and D⁺sl⁺ pairs and the known production and branching fractions. The inclusive semileptonic branching fraction is measured to be [10.6±0.5(stat)±0.7(syst)]%.

Abstract: We search for CP violation in the decay ${D^{+}}\to K_S^0{K^{+}}$ using a data sample with an integrated luminosity of 977 fb−1 collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB e + e − asymmetric-energy collider. No CP violation has been observed and the CP asymmetry in ${D^{+}}\to K_S^0{K^{+}}$ decay is measured to be (−0.25 ± 0.28 ± 0.14)%, which is the most sensitive measurement to date. After subtracting CP violation due to ${K^0}-{{\overline{K}}^0}$ mixing, the CP asymmetry in ${D^{+}}\to {{\overline{K}}^0}{K^{+}}$ decay is found to be (+0.08 ± 0.28 ± 0.14)%.
