Results from a non-leptonic neural-network trigger hosted by experiment WA92, looking for beauty particle production from 350 GeV π− on a Cu target, are presented. The neural trigger has been used to send on a special data stream (the Fast Stream) events to be analyzed with high priority. The non-leptonic signature uses microvertex detector data and was devised so as to enrich the fraction of events containing C3 secondary vertices (i.e, vertices having three tracks whith sum of electric charges equal to +1 or -1). The neural trigger module consists of a VME crate hosting two ETANN analog neural chips from Intel. The neural trigger operated for two continuous weeks during the WA92 1993 run. For an acceptance of 15% for C3 events, the neural trigger yields a C3 enrichment factor of 6.6–7.1 (depending on the event sample considered), which multiplied by that already provided by the standard non-leptonic trigger leads to a global C3 enrichment factor of ≈150. In the event sample selected by the neural trigger for the Fast Stream, 1 every ≈7 events contains a C3 vertex. The response time of the neural trigger module is 5.8 μs.

The Relationship

This study examines Spanish verb–noun compounds in terms of the role played by, and the relationship between, metonymy and metaphor in generating them. After exploring different referent types denoted by Spanish verb–noun compounds such as instrument, agent, place, plant, animal/insect, and causer event, sample examples are analyzed in each referent type for their conceptualization patterns. The analytical tools are based on the notion of domain-internal and domain-external conceptual mappings for metonymy and metaphor, respectively, as well as on the model proposed in the Combined Input Hypothesis for the analysis of metaphors involving multiple inputs. The analysis of the data shows that there are at least four metonymic and metaphoric patterns involved in Spanish verb–noun compounds and that these patterns are productive. The four patters are: (i) only metonymy is involved; (ii) target-in-source metonymy is derived from metaphor; (iii) metaphor is derived from target-in-source metonymy, and (iv) metonymy is derived from a metaphor which is derived from metonymy. This study proposes that these four types of metonymic and metaphoric patterns mediate the production of novel Spanish verb–noun compounds. The implication of this finding is that the more complex the cognitive operations involved in verb–noun compounds, the less predictable the meaning of the compound will be for the language users who first hear them; but once learnt, the meaning of the compound is stored as a whole unit in their mental lexicon. An analysis of a larger corpus of data in future studies will reveal a more comprehensive picture of the relational patterns involved in Spanish verb–noun compounds.

Production Mechanisms

The IceCube Neutrino Observatory at the South Pole, which detects Cherenkov light from charged particles produced in neutrino interactions, firmly established the existence of an astrophysical high-energy neutrino component. Here I present IceCube’s High-Energy Starting Event sample and the new results obtained with a livetime of about 7.5 years. I will focus on the new measurement of the flavor composition performed using this sample. IceCube is directly sensitive to each neutrino flavor via the single cascade, track and double cascade event topologies, the latter being the topology produced in tauneutrino interactions above an energy threshold of ~100 TeV. A measurement of the flavor ratio on Earth can provide important constraints on sources and production mechanisms within the standard model, and also constrain various beyond-standard-model processes.

Size Estimates

Heterogeneity is an important concept in psychiatric research and science more broadly. It negatively impacts effect size estimates under case-control paradigms, and it exposes important flaws in our existing categorical nosology. Yet, our field has no precise definition of heterogeneity proper. We tend to quantify heterogeneity by measuring associated correlates such as entropy or variance: practices which are akin to accepting the radius of a sphere as a measure of its volume. Under a definition of heterogeneity as the degree to which a system deviates from perfect conformity, this paper argues that its proper measure roughly corresponds to the size of a system’s event/sample space, and has units known as numbers equivalent. We arrive at this conclusion through focused review of more than 100 years of (re)discoveries of indices by ecologists, economists, statistical physicists, and others. In parallel, we review psychiatric approaches for quantifying heterogeneity, including but not limited to studies of symptom heterogeneity, microbiome biodiversity, cluster-counting, and time-series analyses. We argue that using numbers equivalent heterogeneity measures could improve the interpretability and synthesis of psychiatric research on heterogeneity. However, significant limitations must be overcome for these measures—largely developed for economic and ecological research—to be useful in modern translational psychiatric science.

We search for the most basic kaonic nuclear state, K-pp, by studying an exclusive p + p → p + Λ + K+ process at Tp = 3.1 GeV using FOPI apparatus at GSI, Darmstadt, Germany. A possible signature of the K-pp is searched as a p + p → K-pp + K+ → p + Λ + K+ reaction in the event sample of pΛK+ three body process. A missing-mass ΔM(K+) spectrum, a Λp invariant-mass M(Λp) spectrum and a mono energetic kaon will characterize such a two body process. The reaction channel is basically the same as the one which T. Yamazaki et al. very recently reported a possible hint of such state with M = 2267 MeV /c2 and Γ = 118 MeV from a re-analysis of the DISTO experiment data. The DISTO data was taken at Tp = 2.85 GeV . The beam energy of the FOPI experiment is chosen to optimize the signal to background ratio and also to see the background shape separately. FOPI data taking took place in August-September 2009 and analysis is currently undergoing.

The Mean

We demonstrate new scaling behavior of the ratio of mean transverse momenta between in inclusive and semi-inclusive reactions. This scaling property is derived from KNO (Koba, Nielsen and Olesen) scaling and SIM (scaling in the mean). New data, which contain the jet-event sample, observed by the recent collider experiments support our proposal.

Hadronic Collisions

According to the cone definition of the jet we propose a practical and effective algorithm to identify jets. Through comparison between the Monte Carlo samples with and without jet(s), the following observations are made. Contrary to what is expected, most of the jetty events do not have high multiplicity. The distributions of multiplicity and [Formula: see text] have long tails for the whole event sample because of (mini)jet production, but no such tail for a no-jet event subsample. The average transverse momentum per event [Formula: see text] and multiplicity n are positively correlated for the whole event sample, and negatively correlated for the jetty event subsample. Two ratios are introduced to describe the "degree of hardness" of each event and are found to be correlated positively with [Formula: see text], but negatively with multiplicity, indicating that [Formula: see text] is a better characteristic parameter to describe the evet hardness than multiplicity.
