Recently, much attention has been focused on the replicability of scientific results, causing scientists, statisticians, and journal editors to examine closely their methodologies and publishing criteria. Experimental particle physicists…
Recent experimental and theoretical developments have motivated interest in a more detailed exploration of heavy ion collisions in the range sqrt(sNN)=5-15 GeV. In contrast to interactions at the full RHIC energy of sqrt(sNN)=200 GeV, such…
Some topics from recent progresses in lattice QCD are reviewed.
The H.E.S.S. collaboration continues to run an array of five Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes to observe the Southern sky in very high energy gamma-rays. In this presentation, recent highlight results obtained with H.E.S.S. are…
We review the prospects for studies of the top quark at the LHC.
As clinical decision-making increasingly moves toward individualized and context-specific treatment recommendations, reliance on any single evidence source, randomized or observational, may be insufficient. Principled integration of…
A recent paper evaluating a new rubric-based graduate admissions approach using generic methods tentatively suggested that its decisions differed noticeably from the previous approach in an unspecified way. Using prior knowledge that the…
A shortcoming in the authors' interpretation of this beautiful new experiment is pointed out and briefly discussed.
In this presentation the experiences of the LHC experiments using grid computing were presented with a focus on experience with distributed analysis. After many years of development, preparation, exercises, and validation the LHC (Large…
The ALICE experiment at LHC is mainly dedicated to heavy-ion physics. An overview of its performances, some predictions related to its first measurements and QGP observable measurements will be given.
An updated review is presented of lattice investigations of colour confinement.

This paper summarises the results obtained by the author and his collaborators in a program logic approach to the verification of quantum programs, including quantum Hoare logic, invariant generation and termination analysis for quantum…
This note presents a list of physics processes for benchmarking the performance of proposed ILC detectors. This list gives broad coverage of the required physics capabilities of the ILC experiments and suggests target accuracies to be…
Data obtained at RHIC can be reproduced with relativistic viscous hydrodynamic simulations by adjusting the viscosity and initial conditions but it is difficult to disentangle these quantities. It is therefore important to find orthogonal…
Some of the most important theoretical and phenomenological aspects of the pinch technique are presented, and several recent developments are briefly reviewed.
A general overview of the results obtained by the ALICE experiment from the analysis of the $\PbPb$ data sample collected at the end of 2010 during the first heavy-ion run at the LHC is presented.
We describe two pilot studies of code review by and for scientists. Our principal findings are that scientists are enthusiastic, but need to be shown code review in action, and that just-in-time review of small code changes is more likely…
Experimental results on ultra-high-energy cosmic rays are briefly reviewed and their interpretation is discussed. The results related to principal observables (arrival directions, energies and composition) of primary particles of extended…
This letter relates theoretical predictions made previously with recently announced RHIC BES-II experimental data on multi-baryon fluctuations. We conclude that new statistically significant effect is observed, and its features are in good…
