The transfer of nanoparticles (NPs) into the food chain through edible plants is great concern. Cucumis sativus L. a freshly consumed garden vegetable that could be in contact with NPs biosolids and direct agrichemical application. In this research, cucumber were cultivated for 150 days sandy loam soil treated 0 to 750 mg TiO2 kg–1. Fruits analyzed using synchrotron μ-XRF μ-XANES, ICP-OES, biochemical assays. Results showed catalase leaves increased (U mg–1 protein) from 58.8 control 78.8...
Previous studies have reported the uptake of cerium oxide nanoparticles (nCeO2) by plants, but their physiological impacts are not yet well understood. This research was aimed to study impact nCeO2 on oxidative stress and antioxidant defense system in germinating rice seeds. The seeds were germinated for 10 days suspension at 62.5, 125, 250, 500 mg L–1 concentrations. Ce uptake, growth performance, levels, membrane damage, responses seedlings analyzed. tissues increased with concentrations,...
Abstract The Physics Beyond Colliders initiative is an exploratory study aimed at exploiting the full scientific potential of CERN’s accelerator complex and infrastructures through projects complementary to LHC other possible future colliders. These will target fundamental physics questions in modern particle physics. This document presents status proposals presented framework Standard Model working group, explore their reach impact that CERN could have next 10–20 years on international landscape.
Despite the remarkable number of publications on interaction engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) with plants, knowledge implications ENPs in nutritional value food crops is still limited. This research was performed to study quality rice grains harvested from plants grown soil treated cerium oxide (nCeO2). Three varieties (high, medium, and low amylose) were cultivated full maturity amended nCeO2 at 0 500 mg kg(-1) soil. Ce accumulation, nutrient content, antioxidant property, evaluated. Results...
Cerium oxide nanoparticles (nCeO2) have been shown to significant interactions in plants; however, there are limited reports on their impacts rice (Oryza sativa). Given the widespread environmental dispersal of nCeO2, it is paramount understand its biochemical and molecular a globally important agricultural crop, such as rice. This study was carried out determine impact nCeO2 oxidative stress, membrane damage, antioxidant enzymes' activities, macromolecular changes roots seedlings. Rice...
Studies have shown that CeO₂ nanoparticles (NPs) can be accumulated in plants without modification, which could pose a threat for human health. In this research, cilantro (Coriandrum sativum L.) were germinated and grown 30 days soil amended with 0 to 500 mg kg⁻¹ NPs analyzed by spectroscopic techniques biochemical assays. At 125 kg⁻¹, produced longer roots (p ≤ 0.05), at there was higher Ce accumulation tissues 0.05). mg, catalase activity significantly increased shoots ascorbate peroxidase...
Physics Beyond Colliders is an exploratory study aimed at exploiting the full scientific potential of CERN's accelerator complex and its infrastructure in next two decades through projects complementary to LHC, HL-LHC other possible future colliders. These should target fundamental physics questions that are similar spirit those addressed by high-energy colliders, but require different types beams experiments. A kick-off workshop held September 2016 identified a number areas interest working...
The η/η mesons are almost unique in the particle universe since they Goldstone boson and dynamics of their decays strongly constrained.Because η have all zero quantum numbers, that violate conservation laws can occur without interfering with a corresponding current.The integrated eta meson samples collected earlier experiments been less than ∼ 10 8 events, limiting considerably search for such rare decays.The sample is even more scarce.A new experiment REDTOP, being proposed at proton...
The CMS experiment, located at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in CERN, has a redundant muon system composed by three different gaseous detector technologies: Cathode Strip Chambers (in forward regions), Drift Tubes central region), and Resistive Plate (both its regions). All are used for reconstruction triggering. RPC confers robustness redundancy to trigger. operation challenging background pileup conditions of LHC environment is presented. provides information all track finders thus...

The high pseudo-rapidity region of the CMS muon system is covered by Cathode Strip Chambers (CSC) only and lacks redundant coverage despite fact that it a challenging for muons in terms backgrounds momentum resolution.
