(Physics Letter B, 2019-07-14)The production cross sections of B-s(0) mesons and charge conjugates are measured in proton-proton (pp) and PbPb collisions via the exclusive decay channel B-s(0)-> J/ psi phi ->mu(+) mu(-) K+K- at a center-of-mass energy ...

(Vanderbilt University. Dept. of Physics and Astronomy, 2009-04-20)A retarding mesh analyzer was used to measure the electron energy spectrum field emitted from a single tip of a Diamond Field Emitter Array. The emission was dominated by adsorbed gas atoms and molecules on the surface ...

(Experimental Physics, 2019-08-21)Exclusive ρ(770)0 photoproduction is measured for the first time in ultraperipheral pPb collisions at sNN−−−√=5.02TeV with the CMS detector. The cross section σ(γp→ρ(770)0p) is 11.0±1.4(stat)±1.0(syst) μb at ⟨Wγp⟩=92.6GeV ...
-
(Vanderbilt University, 2005)This article reconsiders the Harsanyi-Sen debate concerning whether Harsanyi is justified in interpreting his Aggregation and Impartial Observer Theorems as providing axiomatizations of utilitarianism. Sen's criticism and ...

(Vanderbilt University. Dept. of Physics and Astronomy, 2011-04)Due to the complex nature of the spectra of low-mass M type stars, it is difficult to determine their metallicities and temperatures directly. By studying eclipsing binary pairs comprising one F, G, or K type star with ...
-
(Vanderbilt University, 2003)Data from Okinawa's monetary union with the United States in 1958 and with Japan in 1972 are used to obtain a quantitative indication of how monetary union might affect the behavior of nominal and real shocks across two ...
-
(Vanderbilt University, 2006)Abstract: In this article, we introduce an index of ex ante exchange market pressure (EMP) that can be used as a benchmark against which to measure the effectiveness of sterilized intervention. Ex ante EMP is the change ...

(Vanderbilt University, 2005)We consider the classic puzzle of why people turn out for elections in substantial numbers even though formal analysis strongly suggests that rational agents would not vote. If one assumes that voters do not make systematic ...
-
(Vanderbilt University, 2006)We revisit a foundational theoretical paper in the menu cost literature, Sheshinski and Weiss (1983), one of the few to treat stochastic inflation with persistent deviations from trend. In contrast to the original finding, ...
-
(Vanderbilt University, 2001)We analyze mergers over the past century in a growth model that emphasizes technological change. We explain the positive relation between mergers and stock prices, the positive relation between internal growth of firms and ...
-
(Vanderbilt University, 2003)In this paper, we study the incentives for market concentration of (online and traditional) auction houses. Would sellers and buyers be better off if two separate auction houses merged? We suppose that each auction house ...
-
(Vanderbilt University. Dept. of Physics and Astronomy, 2009-04-20)Precise control of fluid delivery in analytical devices may be achieved by harnessing electroosmotic flow (EOF) in oxidized poly(dimethylsiloxane) microfluidic channels fabricated via soft lithography. However, the ...

-
(Physical Review D, 2020-01-22)Dark matter direct detection experiments have limited sensitivity to light dark matter (below a few GeV), due to the challenges of lowering energy thresholds for the detection of nuclear recoil to below O(keV). While ...
