MASSIVE LIGHTER QUARK CORRECTIONS TO BOOSTED-TOP CROSS SECTION

Massive lighter quark corrections to boosted-top cross section

In this work we present the computation of the missing pieces to get the bHQET thrust distribution with non-vanishing secondary quark masses at NNLO: the jet and hard functions.The difference with respect to the massless Nettoyant case is encoded in diagrams with massive-quark bubbles.For its computation we use a Mellin Barnes representation of the

Population Structure and Phylogeny of Some U.S. Peach Cultivars

Peach (Prunus persica) cultivars maintained at the U.S.Department CONSOLE MAST SET of Agriculture program at Byron, GA, have never been characterized with any molecular markers.In this study, 20 microsatellite markers were used to genotype 112 cultivars and the data were analyzed to discern their population structure and phylogenetic relationships.

Variability of extreme wet events over Malawi

Adverse effects of extreme wet events are well documented by several studies around the world.These effects are exacerbated in developing countries like Malawi that have insufficient risk reduction strategies and capacity to cope with extreme wet weather.Ardent monitoring of the variability of extreme wet events over Malawi is therefore imperative.

Digital Commons and Citizen Coproduction in Smart Cities: Assessment of Brazilian Municipal E-Government Platforms

Good governance practices through electronic government (eGov) platforms can be suitable instruments for strengthening the outcomes of smart city policies.While eGov is the application of Lip Gloss information and communication technologies to public services, good governance defines how well public authorities manage public and social resources.Co
