We report a measurement of the ratio ${\cal R}(D^*) = {\cal B}(\bar{B}^0 \rightarrow D^{*+} \tau^- \bar{\nu}_{\tau})/{\cal \ell^- \bar{\nu}_{\ell})$, where $\ell$ denotes an electron or muon. The results are based on data sample containing $772\times10^6$ $B\bar{B}$ pairs recorded at $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with Belle detector KEKB $e^+ e^-$ collider. select $B^0 \bar{B}^0$ by reconstructing both $B$ mesons in semileptonic decays to $D^{*\mp} \ell^{\pm}$. measure R}(D^*)= 0.302 \pm...

We recently reported that lactoferrin (LF), a milk protein belonging to the iron transporter family, inhibits hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in cultured human hepatocytes (PH5CH8) and interaction of LF with HCV is responsible for this inhibitory effect. As PH5CH8 cells were found be hepatocyte line susceptible B (HBV) infection, we therefore examined if could effectively prevent HBV cells. Preincubation cell bovine (bLF) or (hLF) was required cells, preincubation bLF hLF had no effect on...

The production of strip sensors for the ATLAS Inner Tracker (ITk) started in 2021. Since then, a Quality Assurance (QA) program has been carried out continuously, by using specific test structures, parallel to Control (QC) inspection sensors. QA consists monitoring sensor-specific characteristics and technological process variability, before after irradiation with gammas, neutrons, protons. After two years, half full volume reached we present an analysis parameters measured as part process....
In order to achieve high speed transmission and large volume data processing, size silicon-interposer has been required. Warpage caused by the CTE mismatch between a an organic substrate is most significant problem. this study, we investigated several warpage control techniques for 2.5D package assembly process. First was process sequence. One called "chip first process" that is, chips are mounted on Si-interposer at first. The other last last. chip successfully processed using conventional...
