The reconstruction and calibration algorithms used to calculate missing transverse momentum ([Formula: see text] ) with the ATLAS detector exploit energy deposits in the calorimeter and tracks reconstructed in the inner detector as well as the muon spectrometer. Various strategies are used to suppress effects arising from additional proton-proton interactions, called pileup, concurrent with the hard-scatter processes. Tracking information is used to distinguish contributions from the pileup interactions using their vertex separation along the beam axis.

Measurements of jet activity in top-quark pair events produced in proton-proton collisions are presented, using 3.2 fb[Formula: see text] of collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV collected by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. Events are chosen by requiring an opposite-charge [Formula: see text] pair and two -tagged jets in the final state.

In PTZ - model onset of tonic- clonic seizures, latencies to the beginning of the seizure activity, and mortality, and similarly in audiogenic seizures behavioral convulsive reactions , facial automatisms and latency to wild running were evaluated. The extract is used traditionally in Georgian folk medicine as anticonvulsant drug.

Liver biopsy remains the reference standard for fibrosis staging. However, it has several limitations, which have led to the development of non-invasive methods. We evaluated liver fibrosis severity among HCV infected patients by comparing transient elastography (TE) and FIB-4 index.

The production of two prompt [Formula: see text] mesons, each with transverse momenta [Formula: see text] GeV and rapidity [Formula: see text], is studied using a sample of proton-proton collisions at [Formula: see text] TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 11.4 fb[Formula: see text] collected in 2012 with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The differential cross-section, assuming unpolarised [Formula: see text] production, is measured as a function of the transverse momentum of the lower-[Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] meson, di-[Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] and mass, the difference in rapidity between the two [Formula: see text] mesons, and the azimuthal angle between the two [Formula: see text] mesons.

Level of genome stability (structural aberrations, aneuploidy and fragile sites) was studied in cells of the lymphocyte culture of ductal breast cancer patients (DBC). Was studied the correctional influence of separate and combinative action of peptide bioregulator (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) and heavy metal - nickel. It is shown that DBC patients are characterized by high level of genome instability, which is the result of the chromatin changing state.

Background: New oral treatments with very high cure rates have the potential to revolutionize global management of hepatitis C virus (HCV), but population-based data on HCV infection are missing in many low and middle-income countries (LMIC).
Methods: Between 2004 and 2009, dried blood spots were collected from age-stratified female population samples of 9 countries: China, Mongolia, Poland, Guinea, Nepal, Pakistan, Algeria, Georgia and Iran. HCV antibodies were detected by a multiplex serology assay using bead-based technology.

The rejection of forward jets originating from additional proton-proton interactions (pile-up) is crucial for a variety of physics analyses at the LHC, including Standard Model measurements and searches for physics beyond the Standard Model. The identification of such jets is challenging due to the lack of track and vertex information in the pseudorapidity range . This paper presents a novel strategy for forward pile-up jet tagging that exploits jet shapes and topological jet correlations in pile-up interactions.

Observables sensitive to the anomalous production of events containing hadronic jets and missing momentum in the plane transverse to the proton beams at the Large Hadron Collider are presented. The observables are defined as a ratio of cross sections, for events containing jets and large missing transverse momentum to events containing jets and a pair of charged leptons from the decay of a boson. This definition minimises experimental and theoretical systematic uncertainties in the measurements.

To cover a range of mass differences between the top squark and lighter supersymmetric particles, four possible decay modes of the top squark are targeted with dedicated selections: the decay into a -quark and the lightest chargino with , the decay into an on-shell top quark and the lightest neutralino, the three-body decay and the four-body decay . No significant excess of events is observed above the Standard Model background for any selection, and limits on top squarks are set as a function of the and masses.

Data was collected for all consecutive adult patients who underwent elective surgical repair of AAA (fusiform aneurysm) or LS at "The Center of Vascular and Heart Diseases" (Tbilisi, Georgia) between 2010 and 2014. We studied a prevalence of Arterial Hypertension (AHT); Diabetes mellitus (DM); Renal Failure (RF),Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD), Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) and rate of coronary revascularization in these patients; We also, investigate some of the electrocariographic characteristics: Corrected QT interval(QTC),QT dispersion(QTD).
