A measurement is presented of a ratio observable that provides a measure of the azimuthal correlations among jets with large transverse momentum . This observable is measured in multijet events over the range of - based on data collected by the CMS experiment in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 , corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 134 . The results are compared with predictions from Monte Carlo parton-shower event generator simulations, as well as with fixed-order perturbative quantum chromodynamics (pQCD) predictions at next-to-leading-order (NLO) accuracy obtained with different parton distribution functions (PDFs) and corrected for nonperturbative and electroweak effects.

  • Gadolinium deposition in rat kidneys was studied following single and multiple doses, aiming to see how long it lasts and if there's a link between deposition levels and T1-weighted image intensity.
  • The study involved 70 rats divided into groups receiving varying doses, with assessments made at different time points using imaging and mass spectrometry.
  • Results showed more injections led to higher gadolinium levels, but there was little difference between low and medium doses, and T1 intensity measurement was found to be unreliable for gauging deposition.
