Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on detecting multijet signatures from proton-proton collisions at a high energy of 13 TeV, analyzing a dataset totaling 128 fb^{-1}.
- A special data scouting method is utilized to pick out events with low combined momentum in jets.
- This research is pioneering in its investigation of electroweak particle production in R-parity violating supersymmetric models, particularly examining hadronically decaying mass-degenerate higgsinos, and it broadens the limits on the existence of R-parity violating top squarks and gluinos.
Article Synopsis
- - Malaria, caused by the Plasmodium parasite, faces challenges due to drug resistance, prompting the need for new treatments targeting both symptomatic and asymptomatic liver stages; a cost-effective luciferase detection method for liver stage screening has been developed using common lab reagents.
- - The study optimized a protocol for testing liver stage parasites, validating it with 28 existing anti-malarials to ensure reliable signal data, enabling the screening of the Global Health Priority Box (GHPB) for potential drug candidates.
- - Results showed that the optimized screening method produced a more stable luciferase signal with lower cell density, identifying 9 promising hits with selective activity against the P. berghei liver stages.
The first search for soft unclustered energy patterns (SUEPs) is performed using an integrated luminosity of 138 fb^{-1} of proton-proton collision data at sqrt[s]=13 TeV, collected in 2016-2018 by the CMS detector at the LHC. Such SUEPs are predicted by hidden valley models with a new, confining force with a large 't Hooft coupling. In events with boosted topologies, selected by high-threshold hadronic triggers, the multiplicity and sphericity of clustered tracks are used to reject the background from standard model quantum chromodynamics.

Article Synopsis
- * However, they make more errors on 'No-Go' signals, indicating that competition enhances quick responses at the expense of proper inhibition.
- * The increase in errors is linked to personality traits like competitiveness and motor impulsivity, suggesting competition impacts motor control through both behavioral bias and reduced ability to distinguish between response types.
The first search for the Z boson decay to ττμμ at the CERN LHC is presented, based on data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb^{-1}. The data are compatible with the predicted background. For the first time, an upper limit at the 95% confidence level of 6.
