Article Synopsis
- The study investigates CP symmetry violation in the decay of D^{+} particles into K^{-}K^{+}π^{+} using data from proton-proton collisions at a high energy of 13 TeV.
- A unique model-independent method was employed to analyze the phase-space distributions of D^{+} and D^{-} particles, correcting for any instrumental biases using D_{s}^{+} decays.
- The findings indicate no significant evidence of CP violation, with a p value of 8.1%, and measure specific CP asymmetry observables, marking this study as the most sensitive search of its kind in multibody decays.
Article Synopsis
- Inflammation and infections, like malaria, can alter micronutrient biomarker levels, impacting nutritional status assessments, particularly the concentrations of ferritin, which indicates iron deficiency.
- A study pooling data from eight surveys of children aged 6-59 months across several African countries revealed that current or recent malaria infection was linked to a 44% increase in inflammation-adjusted ferritin levels.
- The research also indicated that factors like age and malaria prevalence in the area influenced the relationship between malaria infection and ferritin levels, suggesting further investigation is needed to understand these dynamics.
Article Synopsis
- A study was conducted on B^{+} decays to explore resonant structures using data from the LHCb experiment at various energy levels, totaling an integrated luminosity of 9 fb^{-1}.
- The researchers performed a simultaneous amplitude fit on two decay channels, determining the C parities of resonances in the D^{*±}D^{∓} mass spectra.
- Four new charmonium or charmoniumlike states were discovered, including η_{c}(3945) and h_{c}(4000), and the presence of T_{c[over ¯]s[over ¯]0}^{*}(2870)^{0} and T_{c[over ¯]s
