Abstract

We evaluate the performances of a 100 um-thick silicon strip detector (SSD) with a 300 MeV proton beam and a 90Sr beta-ray source. Signals from the SSD have been read out using a VLSI chip. Common-mode noise, signal separation efficiency and energy resolution are compared with those for the SSD's with a thickness of 300 um and 500 um. Energy resolution for minimum ionizing particles (MIP's) is improved by fitting the non-constant component in a common-mode noise with a linear function., Comment: 8 pages, 6 figures, Submitted to Nucl.

Abstract

The first observation of the decay K^+ --> pi^+ gamma gamma is reported. A total of 31 events was observed with an estimated background of 5.1 +- 3.3 events in the pi+ momentum range from 100 MeV/c to 180 MeV/c. The corresponding partial branching ratio, B(K+ -> pi+ gamma gamma, 100 MeV/c < P_pi^+ < 180 MeV/c), is (6.0 +- 1.5 (stat) +- 0.7 (sys)) x 10^{-7}. No K^+ --> pi^+ gamma gamma decay was observed in the pi^+ momentum region greater than 215 MeV/c. The observed pi^+ momentum spectrum is compared with the predictions of chiral perturbation theory., Comment: 9 pages, LaTeX, 3 Postscript figures

211. Evolution of Molecular Abundance in Protoplanetary Disks

Astrophysics
Abstract

We investigate the evolution of molecular abundance in quiescent protoplanetary disks which are presumed to be around weak-line T Tauri stars. In the region of surface density less than $10^2$ g cm$^{-2}$ (distance from the star $\gtrsim 10$ AU in the minimum- mass solar nebula), cosmic rays are barely attenuated even in the midplane of the disk and produce chemically active ions such as He$^+$ and H$_{3}^+$. Through reactions with these ions CO and N$_2$ are finally transformed into CO$_2$, NH$_3$, and HCN. In the region where the temperature is low enough for these products to freeze onto grains, considerable amount of carbon and nitrogen is locked up in the ice mantle and is depleted from the gas phase in a time scale $\lesssim 3\times 10^6$ yr. Oxidized (CO$_2$) ice and reduced (NH$_3$ and hydrocarbon) ice naturally coexist in this part of the disk. The molecular abundance both in the gas phase and in ice mantle varies significantly with the distance from the central star., Comment: 7 pages latex file (using aas2pp4.sty), 3 figures (ps file), to appear in the Astrophysical Journal Letters

Abstract

The processes e+e−→Σ0Σ¯0 and e+e−→Σ+Σ¯− are studied using initial-state-radiation events in a sample of 980 fb−1 collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e− collider. The cross sections from the mass threshold to 3 GeV/c2 and the effective form factors of Σ0 and Σ+ are measured. In the charmonium region, we observe the decays J/ψ→Σ0Σ¯0 and J/ψ→Σ+Σ¯− and determine the respective branching fractions.

Abstract

Using the data sample of 980 fb−1 collected with the Belle detector operating at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e− collider, we present the results of an investigation of the Λπ+ and Λπ− invariant mass distributions looking for substructure in the decay Λc+→Λπ+π+π−. We find a significant signal in each mass distribution. When interpreted as resonances, we find for the Λπ+ (Λπ−) combination a mass of 1434.3±0.6(stat)±0.9(syst) MeV/c2 [1438.5±0.9(stat)±2.5(syst) MeV/c2], an intrinsic width of 11.5±2.8(stat)±5.3(syst) MeV/c2 [33.0±7.5(stat)±23.6(syst) MeV/c2] with a significance of 7.5σ (6.2σ). As these two signals are very close to the K¯N threshold, we also investigate the possibility of a K¯N cusp, and find that we cannot discriminate between these two interpretations due to the limited size of the data sample.

Abstract

Using the entire data sample of 980 fb−1 collected at or near the ϒ(4S) resonance with the Belle detector operating at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e− collider, we report the measurement of the mass, width, and the branching ratios of the Λc(2625)+ charmed baryon. The mass difference between Λc(2625)+ and Λc+ is measured to be M(Λc(2625)+)−M(Λc+)=341.518±0.006±0.049 MeV/c2. The upper limit on the width is measured to be Γ(Λc(2625)+)<0.52 MeV/c2 at 90% confidence level. Based on a full Dalitz plot fit, branching ratios with respect to the mode Λc(2625)+→Λc+π+π− are measured to be B(Λc(2625)+→Σc0π+)B(Λc(2625)+→Λc+π+π−)=(5.19±0.23±0.40)% and B(Λc(2625)+→Σc++π−)B(Λc(2625)+→Λc+π+π−)=(5.13±0.26±0.32)%, where the first and second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. These measurements can be used to further constrain the parameters of the underlying theoretical models.

Abstract

We present a study of a singly Cabibbo-suppressed decay Λc+→pKS0KS0 and a Cabibbo-favored decay Λc+→pKS0η based on 980 fb−1 of data collected by the Belle detector, operating at the KEKB energy-asymmetric e+e− collider. We measure their branching fractions relative to Λc+→pKS0: B(Λc+→pKS0KS0)/B(Λc+→pKS0)=(1.48±0.08±0.04)×10−2 and B(Λc+→pKS0η)/B(Λc+→pKS0)=(2.73±0.06±0.13)×10−1. Combining with the world average B(Λc+→pKS0), we have the absolute branching fractions, B(Λc+→pKS0KS0)=(2.35±0.12±0.07±0.12)×10−4 and B(Λc+→pKS0η)=(4.35±0.10±0.20±0.22)×10−3. The first and second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively, while the third ones arise from the uncertainty on B(Λc+→pKS0). The mode Λc+→pKS0KS0 is observed for the first time and has a statistical significance of >10σ. The branching fraction of Λc+→pKS0η has been measured with a threefold improvement in precision over previous results and is found to be consistent with the world average.

Abstract

Sachio Fushida,1,2 Katsunobu Oyama,1,2 Masahide Kaji,2 Yasuo Hirono,2 Jun Kinoshita,1,2 Tomoya Tsukada,1,2 Hideaki Nezuka,2 Tatsuo Nakano,2 Masahiro Noto,2 Koji Nishijima,2 Takashi Fujimura,2 Tetsuo Ohta1,2 1Department of Gastroenterological Surgery, Kanazawa University Hospital, 2Digestive Disease Support Organization (DDSO), Kanazawa, Japan Background: Tiotropium, a long-acting inhaled anticholinergic drug, has been widely used in the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, the issue of whether perioperative tiotropium improves postoperative outcomes for gastric cancer patients with COPD remains unclear. Thus, the aim of this study was to determine the efficacy of perioperative tiotropium intervention for gastric cancer patients with COPD.Patients and methods: Eighty-four gastric cancer patients with mild-to-moderate COPD were randomly assigned to receive perioperative pulmonary rehabilitation alone (control group) or pulmonary rehabilitation with 18 µg of tiotropium once daily (tiotropium group). The patients in the tiotropium group received tiotropium for more than 1 week before surgery and for 2 weeks after surgery. Spirometry was performed prior to group assignment and at 2 weeks after surgery. Postoperative complications, forced expiratory volume in 1 second, forced vital capacity, and the ratio of forced expiratory volume in second to forced vital capacity (%) were compared between the two groups.Results: There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of age, body mass index, smoking, gastrectomy incision, operation time, and bleeding volume (all P>0.05). Postoperative complications and pulmonary functions did not differ significantly between the control and tiotropium groups. A subgroup analysis of gastric cancer patients with moderate COPD showed that perioperative tiotropium intervention significantly decreased the rate of postoperative complications compared with the control group (P=0.046). However, even after gastrectomy, many patients with mild COPD in both the control and tiotropium groups showed improved pulmonary function.Conclusion: Although perioperative tiotropium intervention had no significant effects in gastric cancer patients with mild COPD, it may be beneficial in those with moderate COPD. Therefore, the next prospective study should further evaluate perioperative tiotropium intervention for gastric cancer patients with moderate-to-severe COPD. Keywords: gastric cancer, COPD, tiotropium

Abstract

The BDF/SHiP collaboration has proposed a general-purpose intensity-frontier experimental facility operating in beam-dump mode at the CERN SPS accelerator to search for feebly interacting GeV-scale particles and to perform measurements in neutrino physics. BDF/SHiP complements the world-wide program of New Physics searches by exploring a large region of parameter space which cannot be addressed by other experiments, and which reaches several orders of magnitude below existing bounds. The SHiP detector is sensitive both to decay and scattering signatures of models with heavy neutral leptons, dark photons, dark scalars, axion-like particles, light dark matter and other feebly interacting particles. In neutrino physics, BDF/SHiP can perform unprecedented measurements with tau neutrinos and neutrino-induced charm production. Following the Technical Proposal submitted in 2015, the subsequent three-year Comprehensive Design Study (CDS), and the recent study of BDF/SHiP in existing beam facilities around the SPS, this paper restates the motivation and reports on the implementation and physics performance of BDF/SHiP in the SPS ECN3 high-intensity beam facility.

Abstract

In July 2018 an optimization run for the proposed charm cross section measurement for SHiP was performed at the CERN SPS. A heavy, moving target instrumented with nuclear emulsion films followed by a silicon pixel tracker was installed in front of the Goliath magnet at the H4 proton beamline. Behind the magnet, scintillating-fibre, drift-tube and RPC detectors were placed. The purpose of this run was to validate the measurement's feasibility, to develop the required analysis tools and fine-tune the detector layout. In this paper, we present the track reconstruction in the pixel tracker and the track matching with the moving emulsion detector. The pixel detector performed as expected and it is shown that, after proper alignment, a vertex matching rate of 87 % is achieved., 10 pages, 5 figures; for replacement: added detector efficiencies and track resolution, updated description of moving pattern and detector orientation, all opening angles now in cartesian coordinate system; Editor: Nikolaus Owtscharenko; to be published in JINST

In his early 40s, he had been referred to our hospital because of a complaint of bilateral visual impairment, including severe photophobia, approximately 2 years prior. His decimal best-corrected visual acuities were 0.7 and 0.6 in his right and left eyes, respectively. Optical coherence tomography showed diffuse thinning of the entire retinal layer in the macula of both eyes, which was considered to be a cause of the decrement of visual acuity and photophobia. Twelve years after his first visit, he noticed multiple floaters in his left eye. For RD excluding the macular area, we planned cataract and retinal surgery under retrobulbar anesthesia. However, as we could not continue retinal surgery after cataract surgery due to severe photophobia, we performed general anesthesia (GA) during the second surgery. Seventeen months after the surgery, he underwent the third surgery for RD in his right eye under GA. For RD recurring twice, we performed surgery with the HUS system under retrobulbar anesthesia for the fourth and fifth surgeries, which avoided photophobia due to the significantly reduced light stimulation of the HUS system.Conclusion: Lower light intensity achieved by the HUS system enabled us to eliminate the patient’s intraoperative discomfort. Consequently, we could perform the surgery under local anesthesia in this patient with RD who complained of severe photophobia that required GA using a conventional surgical system.Keywords: heads-up surgery, photophobia, vitrectomy, intraoperative discomfort, macular thinning

Abstract

This study conducted an analysis of muons, protons, and charged pions emitted from νμ charged-current interactions on iron using a nuclear emulsion detector. The emulsion detector with a 65 kg iron target was exposed to a neutrino beam corresponding to 4.0×1019 protons on target with a mean neutrino energy of 1.49 GeV. The measurements were performed at a momentum threshold of 200 (50) MeV/c for protons (pions), which are the lowest momentum thresholds attempted up to now. The measured quantities are the multiplicities, emission angles, and momenta of the muons, protons, and charged pions. In addition to these inclusive measurements, exclusive measurements such as the muon-proton emission-angle correlations of specific channels and the opening angle between the protons of CC0π2p events were performed. The data were compared to Monte Carlo predictions and some significant differences were observed. The results of the study demonstrate the capability of detailed measurements of neutrino-nucleus interactions using a nuclear emulsion detector to improve neutrino interaction models.

However, the range of adequate laser energy that can be used for subthreshold photocoagulation is very restricted. Therefore, determination of the titration settings for the threshold energy is an essential part of the subthreshold-photocoagulation procedure. This study examined factors influencing the threshold energy used in subthreshold photocoagulation for diabetic macular edema.Methods: For 20 consecutive cases (29 eyes) who had received treatment using Endpoint Management (EpM) between April 2019 and June 2020 for persistent diabetic macular edema after completion of panretinal photocoagulation, multiple regression analysis was used to examine factors influencing threshold energy.Results: Analysis evaluating all the surgical procedures (n=150) determined there was statistical significance for a history of vitrectomy and cataract surgery, central macular thickness, interval from completion of panretinal photocoagulation, superior 6 mm subfield, and nasal 6 mm subfield. Further analysis examined surgical procedures that had been done in patients with a history of vitrectomy and cataract surgery (n=116). This analysis showed that central macular thickness, axial length, interval from completion of panretinal photocoagulation, and HbA1c were all statistically significant factors.Conclusion: Threshold energy for diabetic macular edema was significantly influenced by a history of vitrectomy and cataract surgery, central macular thickness, and interval between the completion of panretinal photocoagulation and initial EpM. Transparency of ocular media and intraocular inflammation were speculated to be associated with these results.Keywords: diabetic macular edema, subthreshold photocoagulation, panretinal photocoagulation, vitrectomy, cataract surgery
