The absence of exotics and the natural parity exchange dominance in the t-channel, in high energy meson photoproduction of nucleons impose, via duality, restrictions on the baryonic resonance photocouplings. In a broken SU(6)w parametrization these constraints allow different couplings for the [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] baryonic resonances and impose relations between the transitions to the 70 and 56SU(6)W representations. It is shown that the low energy baryonic resonance photocouplings are in good agreement with these high energy constraints.

Abstract While large neutrino telescopes have so far mainly focused on the detection of TeV-PeV astrophysical neutrinos, several efforts are ongoing to extend the sensitivity down to the GeV level for transient sources. Only a handful of neutrino searches have been carried out at the moment leaving the signature of astrophysical transients poorly known in this energy range. In this contribution, we discuss the motivations for high-energy neutrino telescopes to explore the GeV energy range and summarize the current limitations of detectors, such as IceCube and KM3NeT. We then present and compare different approaches for multi-detector analyses that may enhance the sensitivity to a transient GeV neutrino flux.

Abstract KM3NeT, a new generation of neutrino telescope, is currently being deployed in the Mediterranean Sea. While its two sites, ORCA and ARCA, were respectively designed for the determination of neutrino mass hierarchy and high-energy neutrino astronomy, this contribution presents a study of the detection potential of KM3NeT in the MeV-GeV energy range. At these low energies, the data rate is dominated by low-energy atmospheric muons and environmental noise due to bioluminescence and K-40 decay. The goal of this study is to characterize the environmental noise in order to optimize the selection of low-energy neutrino interactions and increase the sensitivity of KM3NeT to transient astrophysical phenomena, such as close-by core-collapse supernovae, solar flares, and extragalactic transients. In this contribution, we will study how using data science tools might improve the sensitivity of KM3NeT in these low-energy neutrino searches. We will first introduce the data sets and the different variables used to characterize KM3NeT’s response to the environmental noise. We will then compare the efficiency of various tools in identifying different components in the environmental noise and in disentangling low-energy neutrino interactions from the background events. We will conclude with the implication of low-energy neutrinos for future astrophysical transient searches.

Journey Time

Transportation efficiency can be measured in terms of the energy needed to move a person or a tonne of freight over a given distance. For passengers, journey time is important, so an equally useful measure is the product of the energy used and the time taken for the journey. Transportation requires storage of energy. Rechargeable systems such as batteries have very low energy densities as compared to fossil fuels. The highest energy densities come from nuclear fuels, although, because of shielding requirements, these are not practical for most forms of transportation. Liquid hydrocarbons represent a nice compromise between high energy density and ease of use.

The complex physical and chemical reactions between the large number of low-energy (0–30 eV) electrons (LEEs) released by high energy radiation interacting with genetic material can lead to the formation of various DNA lesions such as crosslinks, single strand breaks, base modifications, and cleavage, as well as double strand breaks and other cluster damages. When crosslinks and cluster damages cannot be repaired by the cell, they can cause genetic loss of information, mutations, apoptosis, and promote genomic instability. Through the efforts of many research groups in the past two decades, the study of the interaction between LEEs and DNA under different experimental conditions has unveiled some of the main mechanisms responsible for these damages. In the present review, we focus on experimental investigations in the condensed phase that range from fundamental DNA constituents to oligonucleotides, synthetic duplex DNA, and bacterial (i.e., plasmid) DNA. These targets were irradiated either with LEEs from a monoenergetic-electron or photoelectron source, as sub-monolayer, monolayer, or multilayer films and within clusters or water solutions. Each type of experiment is briefly described, and the observed DNA damages are reported, along with the proposed mechanisms. Defining the role of LEEs within the sequence of events leading to radiobiological lesions contributes to our understanding of the action of radiation on living organisms, over a wide range of initial radiation energies. Applications of the interaction of LEEs with DNA to radiotherapy are briefly summarized.
