In the context of the minimal supersymmetric seesaw model, the CP-violating neutrino Yukawa couplings might induce an electron EDM. The same interactions may also be responsible for the generation of the observed baryon asymmetry of the Universe via leptogenesis. We identify in a model-independent way those patterns within the seesaw models which predict an electron EDM at a level probed by pla...

The search for electric dipole moment (EDM) using ultra cold neutrons (UCNs) may discover new Physics beyond the Standard Model (SM) of electroweak interaction, where the presence of EDM, which would signal T violation and thus CP violation (by assuming CPT invariance), may explain the asymmetry of particle-antiparticle observed in our universe. In the measurement of EDM, a small, uniform and f...

We discuss the sensitivity of the high-scale supersymmetry (SUSY) at 10–1000 TeV in B, Bs, K and D meson systems together with the neutron electric dipole moment (EDM) and the mercury EDM. In order to estimate the contribution of the squark flavor mixing to these flavor changing neutral currents (FCNCs), we calculate the squark mass spectrum, which is consistent with the recent Higgs discovery....

Image quality assessment (IQA) methods play important roles in many applications such as image communication, reception, compression, restoration, and display. No-reference IQA metrics are required to resolve an image when there is a lack of a reference image that is required for fullreference IQA metrics. We propose a no-reference IQA method to evaluate the image quality by using the differenc...

The possibility of a non-zero value for neutron EDM continues to be of central importance in physics and cosmology. A non-zero neutron EDM would be a direct evidence for time-reversal symmetry violation. It also implies CP-violation under the assumption of CPT invariance. To date, only two examples of CP-violation have been found: decays of neutral K mesons and B mesons. CP-violation is believe...

The oncolytic measles virus Edmonston (MV-Edm) strain shows considerable oncolytic activity against a variety of human tumors. In this study, we report MV-Edm is able to trigger apoptosis pathways in infected tumor cells and elucidate the roles of cellular apoptosis in the whole oncolytic process. We also show that activated caspase 3, a key executioner of apoptosis, plays key roles in the onco...

The field of educational data mining (EDM) has been slowly expanding to embrace various graph-based approaches to interpretation and analysis of educational data. However, there is a great wealth of software tools for graph creation, visualization, and analysis, both general-purpose and domain-specific, which may discourage EDM practitioners from finding a tool suitable for their graph-related ...

Aim: In vitro study evaluation of the cyclic fatigue resistance of reciprocating and rotary single-file system [Wave One Gold (WOG), Reciproc, Hyflex electrical discharge machining (EDM) file systems] utilizing cyclic fatigue testing device. Materials and methods: Three nickel–titanium rotary systems (Hyflex EDM size #25, 0.06 taper and Reciproc and WOG size #25, 0.06 taper) were used in this s...

We present a complete analysis of the electric dipole moment (EDM) of the ρ-meson induced by CP violating operators of dimension 4 and 5 within the QCD sum rules approach. The set of CP-odd operators includes the theta term and the electric and chromoelectric dipole moments of the three light quarks. We find that the ρ-meson EDM induced purely by the EDMs of quarks is smaller, but still in reas...
