Abstract: Abstract The OPERA experiment has discovered the tau neutrino appearance in the CNGS muon neutrino beam, in agreement with the 3 neutrino flavour oscillation hypothesis. The OPERA neutrino interaction target, made of Emulsion Cloud Chambers, was particularly efficient in the reconstruction of electromagnetic showers. Moreover, thanks to the very high granularity of the emulsion films, showers induced by electrons can be distinguished from those induced by π 0s, thus allowing the detection of charged current interactions of electron neutrinos. In this paper the results of the search for electron neutrino events using the full dataset are reported. An improved method for the electron neutrino energy estimation is exploited. Data are compatible with the 3 neutrino flavour mixing model expectations and are used to set limits on the oscillation parameters of the 3+1 neutrino mixing model, in which an additional mass eigenstate m 4 is introduced. At high Δm 412 (≳0.1 eV2), an upper limit on sin2 2θ μe is set to 0.021 at 90% C.L. and Δm 412 ≳ 4 × 10− 3 eV2 is excluded for maximal mixing in appearance mode.

2. Influence of pH on Oenococcus oeni metabolism: Can the slowdown of citrate consumption improve its acid tolerance?

Abstract: Oenococcus oeni is the lactic acid bacteria most suited to carry out malolactic fermentation in wine, converting L-malic acid into L-lactic acid and carbon dioxide, thereby deacidifying wines. Indeed, wine is a harsh environment for microbial growth, partly because of its low pH. By metabolizing citrate, O. oeni maintains its homeostasis under acid conditions. Indeed, citrate consumption activates the proton motive force, helps to maintain intracellular pH, and enhances bacterial growth when it is co-metabolized with sugars. In addition, citrate metabolism is responsible for diacetyl production, an aromatic compound which bestows a buttery character to wine. However, an inhibitory effect of citrate on O. oeni growth at low pH has been highlighted in recent years. In order to understand how citrate metabolism can be linked to the acid tolerance of this bacterium, consumption of citrate was investigated in eleven O. oeni strains. In addition, malate and sugar consumptions were also monitored, as they can be impacted by citrate metabolism. This experiment highlighted the huge diversity of metabolisms between strains depending on their origin. It also showed the capacity of O. oeni to de novo metabolize certain end-products such as L-lactate and mannitol, a phenomenon never before demonstrated. It also enabled drawing hypotheses concerning the two positive effects that the slowing down of citrate metabolism could have on biomass production and malolactic fermentation occurring under low pH conditions.

3. Citrate metabolism in lactic acid bacteria: is there a beneficial effect for Oenococcus oeni in wine?

Author: Bioquímica i Biotecnologia, Universitat Rovira i Virgili, Eicher, C; Coulon, J; Favier, M; Alexandre, H; Reguant, C; Grandvalet, C, Bioquímica i Biotecnologia, Universitat Rovira i Virgili, and Eicher, C; Coulon, J; Favier, M; Alexandre, H; Reguant, C; Grandvalet, C
Abstract: Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are Gram positive bacteria frequently used in the food industry for fermentation, mainly transformation of carbohydrates into lactic acid. In addition, these bacteria also have the capacity to metabolize citrate, an organic acid commonly found in food products. Its fermentation leads to the production of 4-carbon compounds such as diacetyl, resulting in a buttery flavor desired in dairy products. Citrate metabolism is known to have several beneficial effects on LAB physiology. Nevertheless, a controversial effect of citrate has been described on the acid tolerance of the wine bacterium Oenococcus oeni. This observation raises questions about the effect of citrate on the capacity of O. oeni to conduct malolactic fermentation in highly acidic wines. This review aims to summarize the current understanding of citrate metabolism in LAB, with a focus on the wine bacterium O. oeni. Metabolism with the related enzymes is detailed, as are the involved genes organized in cit loci. The known systems of cit locus expression regulation are also described. Finally, the beneficial effects of citrate catabolism on LAB physiology are reported and the negative impact observed in O. oeni is discussed.

Abstract: Oenococcus oeni is the main lactic acid bacterium associated with malolactic fermentation (MLF) of wines. MLF plays an important role in determining the final quality of wines. Nevertheless, due to the stressful conditions inherent to wine and especially acidity, MLF may be delayed. This study aimed to explore by adaptive evolution improvements in the acid tolerance of starters but also to gain a better understanding of the mechanisms involved in adaptation toward acidity. Four independent populations of the O. oeni ATCC BAA-1163 strain were propagated (approximately 560 generations) in a temporally varying environment, consisting in a gradual pH decrease from pH 5.3 to pH 2.9. Whole genome sequence comparison of these populations revealed that more than 45% of the substituted mutations occurred in only five loci for the evolved populations. One of these five fixed mutations affects mae, the first gene of the citrate operon. When grown in an acidic medium supplemented with citrate, a significantly higher bacterial biomass was produced with the evolved populations compared to the parental strain. Furthermore, the evolved populations slowed down their citrate consumption at low pH without impacting malolactic performance.

6. DIVERGENCES ENTRE PATIENTS ET MEDECINS GENERALISTES AU SUJET DE L'ABSENCE DE MESURE DE LA PRESSION ARTERIELLE EN CONSULTATION

Author: C BOUCHON, J FAVIER, J TREFOND, H VAILLANT-ROUSSEL, P VORILHON, and A RICHARD
Abstract: Contexte. La mesure de la pression artérielle (PA) est un geste rituel dans les consultations de médecine générale. Selon les dernières recommandations, une mesure de la PA tous les trois ans en cas de PA normale chez le sujet sain est suffisante. Objectif. Explorer le ressenti des médecins généralistes (MG) et des patients concernant l’absence de mesure de la PA. Méthode. Étude qualitative par théorisation ancrée. Les MG ont été recrutés de manière aléatoire via l’annuaire des Pages Jaunes et les patients par la méthode « boule de neige ». L’échantillonnage des MG et des patients a été effectué en recherche de variations maximales. Tous les entretiens individuels semi-dirigés ont été codés de manière individuelle puis de manière conjointe. Résultats. Lors des 12 entretiens avec les MG, deux typologies se sont dégagées : une « prise de tension » avec pour objectif de répondre aux attentes supposées des patients (objectif relationnel) et une mesure de PA réalisée avec un objectif médical dans le respect des recommandations. La « prise de tension » semblait favoriser l’inertie thérapeutique, car les MG tenaient moins compte des chiffres. Il y avait une discordance entre les attentes des 9 patients interrogés et celles supposées par les MG. Les patients interrogés n’attendaient pas de mesure systématique à chaque consultation. La relation avec leur MG et la confiance qu’il leur accordait ne dépendait pas de ce geste, mais d’un ensemble de compétences médicales et relationnelles. Conclusion. Il y a une discordance entre les attentes réelles des patients et celles supposées par les MG. Notre hypothèse initiale : « Les patients attendent une mesure systématique de leur PA » est contredite. Les patients pourraient accepter une mesure moins fréquente, mais de meilleure qualité de la PA.

Abstract: OPERA is a long-baseline experiment designed to search for $\nu_{\mu}\to\nu_{\tau}$ oscillations in appearance mode. It was based at the INFN Gran Sasso laboratory (LNGS) and took data from 2008 to 2012 with the CNGS neutrino beam from CERN. After the discovery of $\nu_\tau$ appearance in 2015, with $5.1\sigma$ significance, the criteria to select $\nu_\tau$ candidates have been extended and a multivariate approach has been used for events identification. In this way the statistical uncertainty in the measurement of the oscillation parameters and of $\nu_\tau$ properties has been improved. Results are reported.

Abstract: Background Management of patients with complex congenital heart defects (CHD) requires 3D imagination skills for the spatial evaluation of cardiac structures. Current 3D imaging [echocardiography, MRI, computed tomography (CT)], projected on a 2D screen, limits the appreciation of the relief and the interaction of anatomical structures. Purpose The contribution of 3D stereoscopic relief imagery (3D S/R), built by triangle-based mesh generation, is more qualitative than quantitative, which is why its use, rarely reported in the literature, must be evaluated. Methods 3D S/R was used from 2009 to 2019, as much as the CT made it possible to define a Region of Interest. Data and segmentation processing have been used to obtain four different types of reconstructions: MultiPlanar (MPR), Volume Rendering Technique (VRT), Surface Rendering Technique (SRT), and 3D S/R. The anaglyph 3D S/R effect requires the wearing of glasses (red - cyan blue filters) distributed during the session ( Fig. 1 ). Five complex CHD will be presented in MPR, VRT, then in SRT and 3D S/R: – Ventriculo-Arterial Malposition, – multiple Ventricular Septal Defects, – Anomalous Aortic Origin of a Coronary Artery, – Coarctation and hypoplastic Aortic Arch, – abnormal Pulmonary Arterial Arborization with Major Aorto-Pulmonary Collateral Arteries. Results The qualitative evaluation [MPR + VRT versus SRT and 3D S/R] will be carried out by questions/answers [Wooclap™ interactive system - voting on smartphone, in streaming, using a code associated with the presentation], allowing a global rating of the five CHD, concerning: – the perception of the relief, – the understanding of the cardiopathy, – the probability of appropriation of this 3D S/R imagery. Conclusions This presentation will allow: – to assess the potential influence of 3D S/R on the management strategy of CHD, – to compare these imaging studies with mesh generation techniques leading to the more commonly reported 3D printing.

Abstract: International audience; The reactor antineutrino anomaly might be explained by the oscillation of reactor antineutrinos toward a sterile neutrino of eV mass. In order to explore this hypothesis, the STEREO experiment measures the antineutrino energy spectrum in six different detector cells covering baselines between 9 and 11 m from the compact core of the ILL research reactor. In this Letter, results from 66 days of reactor turned on and 138 days of reactor turned off are reported. A novel method to extract the antineutrino rates has been developed based on the distribution of the pulse shape discrimination parameter. The test of a new oscillation toward a sterile neutrino is performed by comparing ratios of cells, independent of absolute normalization and of the prediction of the reactor spectrum. The results are found to be compatible with the null oscillation hypothesis and the best fit of the reactor antineutrino anomaly is excluded at 97.5% C.L.

Abstract: The OPERA experiment has discovered the tau neutrino appearance in the CNGS muon neutrino beam, in agreement with the 3 neutrino flavour oscillation hypothesis. The OPERA neutrino interaction target, made of Emulsion Cloud Chambers, was particularly efficient in the reconstruction of electromagnetic showers. Moreover, thanks to the very high granularity of the emulsion films, showers induced by electrons can be distinguished from those induced by π0s, thus allowing the detection of charged current interactions of electron neutrinos. In this paper the results of the search for electron neutrino events using the full dataset are reported. An improved method for the electron neutrino energy estimation is exploited. Data are compatible with the 3 neutrino flavour mixing model expectations and are used to set limits on the oscillation parameters of the 3+1 neutrino mixing model, in which an additional mass eigenstate m4 is introduced. At high Δm412 (≳0.1 eV2), an upper limit on sin2 2θμe is set to 0.021 at 90% C.L. and Δm412 ≳ 4 × 10− 3 eV2 is excluded for maximal mixing in appearance mode.[Figure not available: see fulltext.]., SCOPUS: ar.j, info:eu-repo/semantics/published

Abstract: OPERA is a long-baseline experiment designed to search for $\nu_{\mu}\to\nu_{\tau}$ oscillations in appearance mode. It was based at the INFN Gran Sasso laboratory (LNGS) and took data from 2008 to 2012 with the CNGS neutrino beam from CERN. After the discovery of $\nu_\tau$ appearance in 2015, with $5.1\sigma$ significance, the criteria to select $\nu_\tau$ candidates have been extended and a multivariate approach has been used for events identification. In this way the statistical uncertainty in the measurement of the oscillation parameters and of $\nu_\tau$ properties has been improved. Results are reported., Comment: 7 pages, 1 figure, conference: The 15th International Workshop on Tau Lepton Physics (tau2018)AB

Abstract: The OPERA experiment is designed to search for nu(mu) -> nu(tau) oscillations in appearance mode, i.e., through the direct observation of the tau lepton in nu(tau)- charged current interactions. The experiment has taken data for five years, since 2008, with the CERN Neutrino to Gran Sasso beam. Previously, two nu(tau) candidates with a tau decaying into hadrons were observed in a subsample of data of the 2008-2011 runs. Here we report the observation of a third nu(tau) candidate in the tau(-) -> mu(-) decay channel coming from the analysis of a subsample of the 2012 run. Taking into account the estimated background, the absence of nu(mu) -> nu(tau) oscillations is excluded at the 3.4 sigma level.

Abstract: Dimuon and trimuon events produced by the interaction of 250 GeV muons in an iron target have been studied and are shown to originate predominantly from charm production. The data are used to measure the contribution of charm to the nucleon structure function F 2 . The cross sections for real photoproduction ( Q 2 =0) of charm in the current fragmentation region are derived as a function of photon energy and are found to be ∼0.6% of the total, hadronic photoproduction cross section in this energy range. The measured cross sections are found to be well represented by the photon-gluon fusion model. The charmed quark fragmentation function is obtained by using this model to fit the measured decay muon energy distribution and is found to be well represented by exp(1.6±1.6) Z . The data are used to study the momentum distribution of the gluons in the nucleon. An upper limit of 1.4% (90% confidence level) is set on the branching ratio D→ μν and a model-dependent upper limit on the branching ratio F→ μν is derived.

Abstract: The inclusive yield of photons has been measured from deep inelastic interactions of 200 GeV muons on hydrogen. After subtracting the contributions from hadron electromagnetic decays and Bethe-Heitler muon bremsstrahlung, residual photons are observed at low pT and low z at a mean level of 0.15±0.06 per interaction. The quark Compton scattering process is unable to explain the data, thus indicating an anomalous photon production. © 1989.

Abstract: Measurements are presented of the distributions in scaled energy of the hadrons produced in high energy muon scattering. The observed dependence on x (non-factorisation) and Q 2 (scaling violation) is similar to that expected from next to leading order QCD calculations. These variations in the data can be equivalently represented by a dependence on the single variable W 2 .

Abstract: A QCD analysis in leading and next to leading order of the structure function F 2 measured in deep inelastic muon nucleon scattering is presented. Taking into account several phenomenological uncertainties, including the gluon description and the charm contribution, fits to the data give values of the QCD scale parameter Λ LO in the range 7-–250 MeV. A consistent description of muon scattering and lower Q 2 electron scattering requires the presence of higher twist 1/ Q 2 contributions to the scale breaking which are then determined as a function of x from the data.

Abstract: The production of K 0 s, Λs and Λ s has been studied in a 280 GeV muon-proton scattering experiment with almost complete coverage of all kinematic regions. A study is made of the dependence of the multiplicities on the hadronic centre of mass energy, W , and of the Feynman x distributions. It is found that K 0 and Λ production is mostly central and increases strongly with W , whereas Λ production comes mainly from the remnant target system and is only weakly W dependent.

Abstract: A search was made at the CERN SPS for long-lived fractionally charged particles produced in deep inelastic muon interactions on a Be target using the existing muon beam line as a spectrometer. No such particles were found, leading to upper limits for the production cross section of the order of 10 −36 cm 2 for 200 GeV incident muon momentum and quark masses below 9 GeV for the 2 3 charge and 15 GeV for 1 3 charge.

Abstract: The transverse momenta of charged hadrons produced in high energy muon-proton scattering have been studied. The average squared transverse momentum 〈 p 2 ⊥ 〉 shows a strong dependence on z = E h / v characteristic of intrinsic momentum effects and a significant rise as a function of s = W 2 . The W 2 , q 2 , x and z dependences of the data are compared with the predictions of a perturbative QCD model.

Abstract: Charm production has been studied through multimuon events produced in 250 GeV μ + -interactions. The measured dimuon cross section is in agreement with the photon gluon fusion model at low values of Bjorken x within statistical and systematic errors. At larger values of x Bi the data do not support the magnitude of intrinsic charm used to explain hadro-production of charm. Upper limits on the intrinsic charm content of the nucleon are derived from the data.

Abstract: Wear of grinding mill liners and lifters plays a major role in the overall efficiency and economics of mineral processing. Change in the shape of lifters as they wear has a significant influence on grinding efficiency, and the annual cost of maintenance and mill down-time depends on the life of both liners and lifters. The Discrete Element Method (DEM) is a computational method for simulating the dynamics of particle processes. This paper presents an analysis of 3D simulation of a grinding mill carried out using the EDEM software package customised to predict the rate of wear of lifter geometry and to enable progressive updating of worn lifter geometry profiles. A simplified breakage rate model is developed as a tool to correlate liner profile to mill performance. The combination of the prediction of liner profile and grinding rate shows promise to provide a powerful tool for advanced mill liner design – providing a means to balance liner life and mill performance over the life of the liner at the liner design stage.

Abstract: The pressing need for dispatched information anytime anywhere has until now fueled technology and economy beyond any prospect. Needless to recall, mobile telephony success or GPS navigation kits come close to becoming standard equipment for any production cars. Space imagery is in turn close to meeting its “killing application” thanks to the advent of mass geocoded portals of information fully dependent on their ability to show the whole globe to the meter resolution or close for the comfort of the worldwide Intranet community. Space industry is at stake and is facing a new challenge, not only technical but also economical that could be called “the one meter shop”. The question now raised is: can we provide a massive and automated representation of the whole Earth with 1-m resolution and on a daily basis? The presentation will introduce the e-CORCE constellation project, and the disruptive technological avenues that are today contemplated for its realization. Based on a three-layer concept associating the virtues of low cost and simplified constellations, advanced decentralized telecom systems and information GRIDs tuned to the need of internauts, the revolutionary e-CORCE project is paving the way for a novel approach, integrating space and Web information handled in a unified shell.

Abstract: The OPERA neutrino experiment is designed to perform the first observation of neutrino oscillations in direct appearance mode in the ν μ → ν τ channel, via the detection of the τ-leptons created in charged current ν τ interactions. The detector, located in the underground Gran Sasso Laboratory, consists of an emulsion/lead target with an average mass of about 1.2 kt, complemented by electronic detectors. It is exposed to the CERN Neutrinos to Gran Sasso beam, with a baseline of 730 km and a mean energy of 17 GeV. The observation of the first ν τ candidate event and the analysis of the 2008-2009 neutrino sample have been reported in previous publications. This work describes substantial improvements in the analysis and in the evaluation of the detection efficiencies and backgrounds using new simulation tools. The analysis is extended to a sub-sample of 2010 and 2011 data, resulting from an electronic detector-based pre-selection, in which an additional ν τ candidate has been observed. The significance of the two events in terms of a ν μ → ν τ oscillation signal is of 2.40σ., Journal of High Energy Physics, 2013 (11), ISSN:1126-6708, ISSN:1029-8479

Abstract: A new method of momentum measurement of charged particles through multiple Coulomb scattering (MCS) in the OPERA lead-emulsion target is presented. It is based on precise measurements of track angular deviations carried out thanks to the very high resolution of nuclear emulsions. The algorithm has been tested with Monte Carlo pions. The results are found to describe within the expected uncertainties the data obtained from test beams. We also present a comparison of muon momenta evaluated through MCS in the OPERA lead-emulsion target with those determined by the electronic detectors for neutrino-charged current interaction events. The two independent measurements agree within the experimental uncertainties, and the results validate the algorithm developed for the emulsion detector of OPERA. © IOP Publishing Ltd and Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft., 0, arXiv:1106.6211v1 [physics.ins-det], SCOPUS: ar.j, info:eu-repo/semantics/published

Abstract: The OPERA neutrino experiment in the underground Gran Sasso Laboratory (LNGS) was designed to perform the first detection of neutrino oscillations in direct appearance mode in the vμ→ v τ channel, the v τ signature being the identification of the τ -lepton created in its charged current interaction. The hybrid apparatus consists of a large mass emulsion film/lead target complemented by electronic detectors. Placed in the LNGS, it is exposed to the high-energy long-baseline CERN Neutrino beam to Gran Sasso (CNGS) 730 km away from the neutrino source. The observation of a first v τ candidate event was reported in 2010. In this paper, we discuss the result of the analysis of the data taken during the first two years of operation (2008-2009) underlining the major improvements brought to the analysis chain and to the Monte Carlo simulations. The statistical significance of the one event observed so far is then evaluated to 95%. © IOP Publishing Ltd and Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft.

OPERA collected muon-neutrino interactions during the 2008 and 2009 physics runs of the CNGS neutrino beam, produced at CERN with an energy range of about 5-35 GeV. A total of 5.3 × 1019 protons on target equivalent luminosity have been analysed with the OPERA EDs: scintillator strips target trackers and magnetic muon spectrometers equipped with resistive plate gas chambers and drift tubes, allowing a detailed reconstruction of muon-neutrino interactions. Charged current (CC) and neutral current (NC) interactions are identified, using the measurements in the EDs, and the NC/CC ratio is computed. The momentum distribution and the charge of the muon tracks produced in CC interactions are analysed. Calorimetric measurements of the visible energy are performed for both the CC and NC samples. For CC events, the Bjorken-y distribution and the hadronic shower profile are computed. The results are compared with a detailed Monte Carlo simulation of the response of EDs. © IOP Publishing Ltd and Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft., 0, SCOPUS: ar.j, info:eu-repo/semantics/published

Abstract: The OPERA detector at the Gran Sasso underground laboratory (LNGS) was used to measure the atmospheric muon charge ratio in the TeV energy region. We analyzed 403069 atmospheric muons corresponding to 113.4 days of livetime during the 2008 CNGS run. We computed separately the muon charge ratio for single and for multiple muon events in order to select different energy regions of the primary cosmic ray spectrum and to test the Rμ dependence on the primary composition. The measured Rμ values were corrected taking into account the charge-misidentification errors. Data have also been grouped in five bins of the "vertical surface energy" ℰμcos θ. A fit to a simplified model of muon production in the atmosphere allowed the determination of the pion and kaon charge ratios weighted by the cosmic ray energy spectrum. © Springer-Verlag / Società Italiana di Fisica 2010., 0, SCOPUS: ar.j, info:eu-repo/semantics/published

Abstract: The OPERA experiment is designed to search for $\nu_{\mu} \rightarrow \nu_{\tau}$ oscillations in appearance mode i.e. through the direct observation of the $\tau$ lepton in $\nu_{\tau}$ charged current interactions. The experiment has taken data for five years, since 2008, with the CERN Neutrino to Gran Sasso beam. Previously, two $\nu_{\tau}$ candidates with a $\tau$ decaying into hadrons were observed in a sub-sample of data of the 2008-2011 runs. Here we report the observation of a third $\nu_\tau$ candidate in the $\tau^-\to\mu^-$ decay channel coming from the analysis of a sub-sample of the 2012 run. Taking into account the estimated background, the absence of $\nu_{\mu} \rightarrow \nu_{\tau}$ oscillations is excluded at the 3.4 $\sigma$ level.

Abstract: The OPERA neutrino oscillation experiment is based on the use of the Emulsion Cloud Chamber (ECC). In the OPERA ECC, nuclear emulsion films acting as very high precision tracking detectors are interleaved with lead plates providing a massive target for neutrino interactions. We report on studies related to the effects occurring from the contact between emulsion and lead. A low radioactivity lead is required in order to minimize the number of background tracks in emulsions and to achieve the required performance in the reconstruction of neutrino events. It was observed that adding other chemical elements to the lead, in order to improve the mechanical properties, may significantly increase the level of radioactivity on the emulsions. A detailed study was made in order to choose a lead alloy with good mechanical properties and an appropriate packing technique so as to have a low enough effective radioactivity., Comment: 19 pages, 11 figures

Abstract: Objective. To evaluate the prognostic significance of and predictive value for survival of CA 125 and TPS levels after three chemotherapy courses in ovarian cancer patients. Methods. We analyzed in a prospective multicenter study the 1- and 2-year overall survival (OS) in ovarian carcinoma patients. The prognostic significance of CA 125 and TPS levels above the discrimination value (25 kU/L and 100 Un, respectively) was examined by univariate and multivariate analyses. Results. Of the 213 cases included, 64 patients were staged as PICO I + II and 149 patients were staged as PICO III + IV. Tumor marker levels in stage I + II were not correlated with survival. However, stage UI and IV patients with elevated levels of CA 125 or TPS after three chemotherapy courses had a worse 2-year OS (69% vs 26%, P

Abstract: A measurement of the cosmic ray positron fraction e+ / (e+ + e-) in the energy range of 1-30 GeV is presented. The measurement is based on data taken by the AMS-01 experiment during its 10 day Space Shuttle flight in June 1998. A proton background suppression on the order of 106 is reached by identifying converted bremsstrahlung photons emitted from positrons., Physics Letters B, 646 (4), ISSN:0370-2693, ISSN:0031-9163, ISSN:1873-2445

Abstract: The OPERA neutrino detector at the underground Gran Sasso Laboratory (LNGS) was designed to perform the first detection of neutrino oscillations in appearance mode, through the study of nu_mu to nu_tau oscillations. The apparatus consists of a lead/emulsion-film target complemented by electronic detectors. It is placed in the high-energy, long-baseline CERN to LNGS beam (CNGS) 730 km away from the neutrino source. In August 2006 a first run with CNGS neutrinos was successfully conducted. A first sample of neutrino events was collected, statistically consistent with the integrated beam intensity. After a brief description of the beam and of the various sub-detectors, we report on the achievement of this milestone, presenting the first data and some analysis results., Submitted to the New Journal of Physics

Abstract: Objectifs L'insuffisance cardiaque pose, par sa frequence et sa gravite, un probleme majeur de sante publique. Plusieurs facteurs peuvent influencer le risque de survenue d'une insuffisance cardiaque et expliquer les variations de prevalence et d'etiologie de cette pathologie entre differentes populations ou groupes ethniques. En Guadeloupe, ou environ 85 % de la population est de type Afro-Caribeen, on observe une forte prevalence de certains facteurs de risque cardiovasculaires (FDRCV), tels que l'hypertension arterielle (30 %), le diabete (8 %) ou l'obesite (23 %), mais les donnees epidemiologiques concernant l'insuffisance cardiaque sont peu nombreuses. L'objectif de cette etude etait de preciser les caracteristiques des patients hospitalises pour insuffisance cardiaque en Guadeloupe. Methodes Il s'agit d'une etude retrospective ayant porte sur des sujets hospitalises pour insuffisance cardiaque dans la principale structure de soins de la region. Les antecedents cardiovasculaires, FDRCV, donnees demographiques, biologiques et echographiques ont ete collectes a partir d'observations medicales standardisees. L'etude a concerne tous les sujets ayant presente une decompensation cardiaque gauche ou globale confirmee, quelle qu'en soit l'etiologie. Resultats L'etude a porte sur 229 cas consecutifs (hommes, 58,5 %), âges en moyenne de 66,7 ans (± 15,8). Les FDRCV les plus frequents etaient l'hypertension arterielle (91,3 %) et le diabete (43,7 %). L'obesite, le tabagisme et l'ethylisme chronique concernaient, respectivement, 31,6 %, 15,3 % et 14,4 % des sujets. Compares aux sujets non hypertendus, les patients hypertendus avaient plus souvent a l'echographie une hypertrophie parietale (68,9 % vs 45,1 % ; p = 0,04), et avaient une fraction d'ejection ventriculaire gauche (FEVG) plus elevee (40,2 % vs 30,3 % ; p = 0,03). Les patients diabetiques avaient, compares aux non diabetiques, plus frequemment une hypertrophie parietale (79,5 % vs 57,1 % ; p = 0,001), une FEVG plus elevee (43 % vs 36 % ; p = 0,006) et un diametre telediastolique plus faible (57 mm vs 61 mm ; p = 0,005). L'etiologie de la cardiopathie a ete attribuee a une cause hypertensive dans 43 % des cas, et a une cause ischemique dans 21 % des cas. Une coronarographie a ete realisee chez 140 patients (61 %) et des lesions significatives ont ete objectivees dans 38,6 % des cas et des lesions pluri-tritronculaires dans 21 % des cas. Conclusion Cette etude revele des particularites concernant la distribution des FDRCV cardiovasculaires et les caracteristiques des patients guadeloupeens hospitalises pour insuffisance cardiaque. La prevalence de l'hypertension arterielle et du diabete est tres eleve alors l'insuffisance cardiaque d'origine ischemique est relativement peu frequente. Des travaux complementaires sont necessaires pour etudier le role des facteurs cardio-metaboliques dans la survenue de l'insuffisance cardiaque dans ces populations.

Abstract: A 4-layer design of aerogel threshold counters using two refractive indices was suggested for the particle identification in the forward region of the BaBar detector. Three prototypes filled with the high quality aerogel produced in Novosibirsk were tested at T10 beam at CERN. Monte Carlo code was developed for the simulation of the light collection in aerogel counters. Monte Carlo results based on measured PTFE reflection coefficient and aerogel absorption and scattering lengths are in agreement with experiment.
