The LHCb detector is a forward spectrometer at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) CERN. experiment designed for precision measurements of CP violation and rare decays beauty charm hadrons. In this paper performance various sub-detectors trigger system are described, using data taken from 2010 to 2012. It shown that design criteria have been met. excellent has allowed collaboration publish wide range physics results, demonstrating LHCb's unique role, both as heavy flavour general purpose in region.

In some cases in early part 2012 are included. For averaging, common input parameters used various analyses adjusted (rescaled) to values, known correlations taken into account. The include branching fractions, lifetimes, neutral meson mixing parameters, CP violation semileptonic decays CKM matrix elements.
Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) hosts luminescent defects possessing spin qualities compatible with quantum sensing protocols at room temperature. Vacancies, in particular, are readily obtained via exposure to high-energy ion beams. While the defect creation mechanism such irradiation is well understood, occurrence rate of optically active negatively charged vacancies ($V_B^-$) an open question. In this work, we exploit focused helium ions systematically generate vacancy hBN flakes varying...

There is a gap between the problems our students typically encounter in their education and they are likely to be asked solve future employments. It convenient education, both specification assessment, provide fairly well- structured problems, many instructors view using such as way manage learning process. However, real-world ill-structured we argue that only well-structured examples does not prepare for will professional life. Preparing dealing with ill-structured, or open ended, an...
