We summarize the dominant decay modes of the neutral and charged Higgs bosons in the Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model. While two–body decays are in general dominating, the branching ratios for three–body decays of the heavy scalar, pseudoscalar and charged Higgs bosons can be large below the thresholds if top quarks, W/Z bosons or heavy scalar bosons are involved. Analytic...

Page appearance and layout for music notation is a critical component of the overall musical information contained in a document. To capture and transfer this information, we outline an interchange format for OMR applications, the OMR Interchange Package (OIP) format, which is designed to allow layout information and page images to be preserved and transferred along with semantic musical conten...

1 This work has been carried out within the priority programme "Mobile Communication" of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) under grant no. Sp. 230/12-2 and within the ACTS-project AMASE (AC 346) of the European Commission Abstract The future nomadic customer will want to make requests according to his personal service profile and to be reachable under the same number, no matter with whi...

Complementing evidence that childhood poverty negatively affects adult outcomes, the impact of poverty on well-being in late childhood is investigated empirically to help inform the targeting of policy. Child well-being and household poverty are conceptualised as multi-dimensional phenomena and structural equation modelling used to ascertain the relative importance of determinants of child well...

As a computer scientist and interdisciplinary researcher working in the field of computational biology, I am inspired by the potential benefits of computational approaches to biological research and driven by my passion for solving difficult computational challenges. In that vein, the majority of my research has been in cancer genomics, which provides diverse and difficult computational problem...

Results on hadronic final states in e'e' annihilation are reported. The data were collected with t he MARK II detector at the PEP storage ring at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, operating at a center-of-mass energy of ds=29 GeV The MARK II detector, a 4.5 KG solenoid with cylindrical drift chambers, surrounded by a liquid argon calorimeter, has events are selected by least 5 charged pat...

We survey techniques to compute the action of the Hecke operators on the cohomology of arithmetic groups. These techniques can be seen as generalizations in different directions of the classical modular symbol algorithm, due to Manin and Ash-Rudolph. Most of the work is contained in papers of the author and the author with Mark McConnell. Some results are unpublished work of Mark McConnell and ...

We have searched 310 hadronic 2 decays for evidence of new quarks and leptons. We set lower mass limits of 40.7 GeV/c2 for top, 45 GeV/c2 for bottom prime, and 42.4 GeV/c2 for a heavy neutral lepton assuming their decays are predominantly via the charged current. Limits are also set for other decay modes and for mixtures of decay modes. Extended version of paper presented at the International E...

Introduction MELDEX—the name given to our digital music library project—is a Web-based system that supports searching through text and sung queries, and browsing through automatically compiled lists of metadata, such as titles. Sample collections include 1,000 popular tunes derived from sheet music using Optical Music Recognition (OMR) software, 10,000 folksongs donated by two other computer mu...
