We present spectra of ultracold $^7$Li$^{85}$Rb molecules in their electronic ground state formed by spontaneous decay of weakly bound photoassociated molecules. Beginning with atoms in a dual species magneto-optical trap (MOT), weakly…
We study the prospects for LHC discovery of a narrow resonance that decays to two Higgs bosons, using the final state of two photons and two bottom jets. Our work is motivated in part by a scenario in which two-body flavor-preserving decays…

The paper aims at investigating two types of decay structure for linear symmetric hyperbolic systems with non-symmetric relaxation. Precisely, the system is of the type $(p,q)$ if the real part of all eigenvalues admits an upper bound…
