The Standard Model (SM), actual fundamental theory for particle physics, provides a description of the ele-mentary particles and the fundamental interactions:the electromagnetic, weak and strong forces. Extensively tested by many world-wide experiments. Questions still remains to be answered for the completeness of this theory. New experiments have been designed and built to create and explore particle interactions at a new high energy scale. The data from those experiments will offer us a chance to test deeper our understanding of the SM and to search for physics beyond the SM. At the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), physicists and engineers from all over the world are searching to understand the fundamental laws of the universe. It is at CERN that the world’s largest and most sophisticated experimental instruments have been built, to accelerate particles at the energy of 3.5-4 TeV with the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and collide them at the center of detectors. In this way physicists may be able to find hint on how particles interact, and further on the laws of nature.A Toroidal LHC Apparatus (ATLAS), one of the four main detectors at LHC, aims at a wide range of physics studies, including the precision measurement of the SM processes, the search for the Higgs bosons and hint of new physics. The CMS experiment is aiming at a similar program.In ATLAS, di-boson production is one of the most important electro-weak processes. Among the massive vector boson pair production processes, W+W- production has a larger cross section compared to the WZ and ZZ ones. The electro-weak sector of the SM, as well as the strong interactions, can be tested through the precision measurements of the W+W-production cross section. A measurement of the W+W- production cross section in 8 TeV center of mass proton-proton collisions is presented here from data collected with the ATLAS detector at the LHC for a total integrated luminosity of 20.3 fb-1.The W+W- events are selected with 3 final states:ee, eμ, and μμ. In order to suppress the background contamination, mainly from the Drell-Yan and tt processes, a cut on missing transverse energy is applied and events with hadronic jets satisfying appropriate selection criteria are rejected. The major backgrounds, mainly including W +jets, top and Z+jets, are estimated by data driven technique. These background estimations are cross-checked by independent methods. The measured cross section is 71,0-1.1+1.1(stat)-5.0+5.7(syst)-2.0+2.1(lumi) pb, which is consistent with SM Next-to-Next-Leading-Order prediction of 63.2-1.8+2.0 pb.The normalized differential W+W- cross section α/1dX/dσ is determined as a function of six kinematic variables. The unfolded distributions for these variables are given. The possible deviation from the SM can be parameterized with operators of higher order dimensions. The operators of lowest dimension introduce anomalous triple gauge couplings (ATGC). The distribution of the leading lepton pr is used to constrain the anomalous coupling constants. Therefore, the measurement of the coupling constants provides an indirect search for new physics at mass scales not accessible at the LHC. In our study, no evidence for anomalous WWZ and WWγ triple gauge-boson couplings is found, and limits on their coupling parameters are set. The limits are better by a factor of almost four compared to the limits previously published by the ATLAS collaboration.

资源最优配置是经济学界的核心议题,时间是最宝贵的资源,决定着个体生命的质量与意义。使用2018年中国家庭追踪调查(CFPS)数据,选择女性群体为研究对象,并引入家庭因素,实证检验工作时间和幸福感的关系,研究发现,女性工作时间与幸福感呈倒U型关系,具有激励与抑制双重叠加效应,工作时间为每周42小时左右有助于女性实现幸福感的最大化。进一步研究发现,子女数量和家庭收入均会使这种倒U型关系变得平缓,并且家
miRNA是一类小非编码RNA,它们可以调控靶mRNA的稳定性和/或mRNA靶标翻译潜能。miRNA能相应地对细胞环境产生应答,并可促进细胞的生长或死亡。miRNA在包括内质网应激的多种细胞状态下发挥重要作用。我们发现一个人特异的miRNA miR-3648在内质网应激条件下被诱导。我们同时也发现miRNA-3648在转录水平上调。更进一步,我们用Luciferase实验证实了 miR-3648的

向往、追求、获得并享有职业幸福,既是教师专业发展的重要维度,也是教师职业生活的基本权利。持续推进教师职业幸福感提升,既是党和政府教师教育政策的价值取向与关注重点,也是国家、社会和家庭在尊师重教传统文化规约下的殷切期望,更是面向2035年教育现代化远景目标追求中教育研究领域里的重点热点。基于31个省市(包括22个省、5个自治区和4个直辖市)33 590名中小学教师的调查发现,我国中小学教师职业幸福感
在一些反铁磁自旋系统中,由于存在激烈竞争的相互作用,在低温下不存在一个简单的经典构型可以同时满足所有的相互作用都处于最低能量,长程磁序的发展受到了强烈的抑制,因此在这些系统中会出现一些新奇的相和临界行为。本论文主要通过经典和量子蒙特卡洛方法对这些具有新奇相变和低温性质的自旋系统进行研究。首先,本文研究了在烧绿石(pyrochlore)晶格上SU(2)对称性的1/2自旋的反铁磁量子海森堡模型的低温性
为探讨大学生宿舍人际关系困扰与手机成瘾之间的关系,以及社交焦虑和归属需求的中介作用和性别差异,对1189名大学生进行线上问卷施测。多元回归分析和中介效应检验的结果表明:(1)大学生宿舍人际关系困扰正向预测手机成瘾;(2)社交焦虑和归属需求在宿舍人际关系困扰与手机成瘾之间起序列中介作用;(3)男生的社交焦虑与手机成瘾的关系更强,因而宿舍人际关系困扰对男大学生手机成瘾的影响更大。
死与葬是无法回避的人生归宿,人们对于死与葬的恐惧与坦然取决于生命教育与死亡辅导的开展,逢清明墓祭,或徜徉墓园,不仅寄托哀思,还细心品味生存意义、建构“向死而生,转身去奋斗(爱)”的生命姿态。因此,优美、优雅的墓园空间意识、场所精神更有利于追思慎远、民德归厚的社会教化,政府的治理艺术更应该体现在医疗、殡丧的协同、整合,把握好死与葬的公益性与市场性张力,共同建构豁达生死、敬佑生命的社会新风尚。

自从Bekenstein和Hawking发现黑洞存在熵和热辐射以来,关于黑洞系统的热力学研究取得了丰硕的成果。Hawking等人首先建立了引力系统的作用量与统计物理学的配分函数的联系,并将这种联系应用于渐进AdS时空的黑洞的相结构的研究。然而,这套方法并不能直接应用到渐进平坦时空中黑洞热力学的研究中,因为渐进平坦时空中的黑洞的热容是负值,这会导致不稳定性。York等人对Hawking和Page的方
