Abstract A combination of measurements sensitive to the CP violation angle γ of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa unitarity triangle and to the charm mixing parameters that describe oscillations between D0 and $$ \overline{D} $$ D ¯ 0 mesons is performed. Results from the charm and beauty sectors, based on data collected with the LHCb detector at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider, are combined for the first time. This method provides an improvement on the precision of the charm mixing parameter y by a factor of two with respect to the current world average. The charm mixing parameters are determined to be $$ x=\left({0.400}_{-0.053}^{+0.052}\right)\% $$ x = 0.400 − 0.053 + 0.052 % and y = $$ \left({0.630}_{-0.030}^{+0.033}\right)\% $$ 0.630 − 0.030 + 0.033 % . The angle γ is found to be γ = $$ \left({65.4}_{-4.2}^{+3.8}\right){}^{\circ} $$ 65.4 − 4.2 + 3.8 ° and is the most precise determination from a single experiment.

We present the recent result on CP mixing based on a high statistics photoproduced charm sample collected by the FOCUS experiment. We compare the lifetimes of two neutral D meson decays: D0→K- π+ and D0→K-K+. A mixing parameter for the neutral D system (yCP) is obtained under the assumption that K-π+ is an equal mixture of CP odd and even eigenstates.

Abstract Dark matter could have a dissipative asymmetric subcomponent in the form of atomic dark matter (aDM). This arises in many scenarios of dark complexity, and is a prediction of neutral naturalness, such as the Mirror Twin Higgs model. We show for the first time how White Dwarf cooling provides strong bounds on aDM. In the presence of a small kinetic mixing between the dark and SM photon, stars are expected to accumulate atomic dark matter in their cores, which then radiates away energy in the form of dark photons. In the case of white dwarfs, this energy loss can have a detectable impact on their cooling rate. We use measurements of the white dwarf luminosity function to tightly constrain the kinetic mixing parameter between the dark and visible photons, for DM masses in the range 10−5–105 GeV, down to values of ϵ ∼ 10−12. Using this method we can constrain scenarios in which aDM constitutes fractions as small as 10−3 of the total dark matter density. Our methods are highly complementary to other methods of probing aDM, especially in scenarios where the aDM is arranged in a dark disk, which can make direct detection extremely difficult but actually slightly enhances our cooling constraints.

The NA48/2 and NA62 collaborations report on recent results, current status, and prospects of kaon physics at the CERN-SPS. The NA62 collaborations aims to measure the decay [Formula: see text] with an uncertainty of 10% or better. The NA62 detector and preliminary results from a pilot run in 2014 are presented. In addition, recent results of the NA48/2 collaboration are reported. A search for Dark Photons has been performed in [Formula: see text] decays via the kaon decays [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. No dark photon signal was observed and new upper limits on the mixing parameter [Formula: see text] and the dark photon mass were computed. We also report the first observation of the kaon decay [Formula: see text].

Abstract The study of nonideal mixing effect on the dynamic behaviors of CSTRs has very rarely been published in the literature. In this work, Cholette’s model is employed to explore the nonideal mixing effect on the dynamic response of a nonisothermal CSTR. The analysis shows that the mixing parameter n (the fraction of the feed entering the zone of perfect mixing) and m (the fraction of the total volume of the reactor), indeed affect the characteristic roots of transfer function of a real CSTR, which determine the system stability. On the other hand, the inverse response and overshoot response are also affected by the nonideal mixing in a nonisothemal CSTR. These results are of much help for the design and control of a real CSTR.

Static, or motionless, mixers are widely used in applications that involve chemical reactions, heat transfer, blending of fluids, or a combination of these. Within those applications, mixing can affect various parameters such as heat or mass transfer rates, process operating time, cost, safety, and product quality. Therefore, it is crucial to assess the performance of static mixers. In general, their performance is evaluated based on their ability to carry out mixing while minimizing energy loss. To accomplish this, a novel mixing parameter, the M number, is proposed and evaluated. The M number is a unitless parameter that describes the effects of the mixer using entropy change and pressure drop. The parameter is compared to another method of mixing evaluation that relies on Covariance (CoV) change across the mixer. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is executed using both methods to evaluate two static mixers and compare the results of each method. Potential applications for the M number are discussed and its limitations are noted.
