- The fragmentation functions of quarks and gluons are measured in various three-jet topologies in Z decays from the full data set collected with the DELPHI detector at the Z resonance between 1992 and 995. The results at different values of transverse momentum-like scales are compared. A parameterization of the quark and gluon fragmentation functions at a fixed reference scale is given. The quark and gluon fragmentation functions show the predicted pattern of scaling violations. The scaling violation for quark jets as a function of a transverse momentum-like scale is in a good agreement with that observed in lower energy e+e- annihilation experiments. For gluon jets it appears to be significantly stronger. The scale dependences of the gluon and quark fragmentation functions agree with the prediction of the DGLAP evolution equations from which the colour factor ratio CA/CF is measured to be: CA/CF = 2.26 ± 0.09stat. ± 0.06sys. ± 0.12clus.,scale..

- Muon pair production in the process e+e- → e+e- μ+μ- is studied using the data taken at LEP1 (√s ≃ mz) with the DELPHI detector during the years 1992-1995. The corresponding integrated luminosity is 138.5 pb-1. The QED predictions have been tested over the whole Q2 range accessible at LEP1 (from several GeV2/c4 to several hundred GeV2/c4) by comparing experimental distributions with distributions resulting from Monte Carlo simulations using various generators. Selected events are used to extract the leptonic photon structure function Fγ 2. Azimuthal correlations are used to obtain information on additional structure functions, Fγ A and Fγ B, which originate from interference terms of the scattering amplitudes. The measured ratios Fγ A/Fγ 2 and FγB/Fγ 2 are significantly different from zero and consistent with QED predictions.

- Data taken by the DELPHI experiment at centre-of-mass energies of 183 GeV and 189 GeV with a total integrated luminosity of 212 pb-1 have been used to search for the supersymmetric partners of the electrons, muons, and taus in the context of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). The decay topologies searched for were the direct decay (ℓ̃ → ℓx̃), producing acoplanar lepton pairs plus missing energy, and the cascade decay (ℓ → ℓx̃0 2 → ℓγx̃0 1), producing acoplanar lepton and photon pairs plus missing energy. The observed number of events is in agreement with Standard Model predictions. The 95% CL excluded mass limits for selectrons, smuons and staus are mẽ ≤ 87 GeV/c2, mμ̃ ≤ 80 GeV/c2 and mτ̃ 75 GeV/c2, respectively, for values of μ=-200 GeV/c2 and tanβ=1.5.

The seismic crustal structure of the Ossa-Morena Zone and its geological interpretation
- 2004

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The IBERSEIS deep reflection seismic experiment has provided a crustal image of the Variscan orogen of southwest Iberia. A brief presentation of the entire seismic profile is given, and then the Ossa-Morena Zone (OMZ) and its boundaries are considered. The crust of the OMZ is shown to be divided into an upper crust, characterized by dominantly NE-dipping reflectivity, and a poorly reflective lower crust. The reflectivity of the upper crust has good correlation with the geological cross-section constructed from surface mapping. In the seismic image, the upper crustal geological structures are seen to merge in the middle crust. Nevertheless, the OMZ middle crust is not a mere detachment level, as it shows very unusual features: it appears as a band of strong reflectivity and irregular thickness (the Iberian Reflective Body, IRB) that we interpret as a great sill-like intrusion of basic rocks. The boundaries of the OMZ are considered sutures of the orogen, and their geometrical features, as deduced from geological mapping and the seismic image, are in accordance with the transpressional character of the Variscan collision recorded in SW Iberia. The present Moho is flat, obliterating the root of the orogen.

- The addition of oral capecitabine to docetaxel improves response rate, time to progression (TTP) and overall survival in anthracycline-pretreated metastatic breast cancer (MBC). This phase II study evaluates the efficacy and safety of a 21-day cycle of oral capecitabine (1000 mg m(-2) twice daily, days 1-14) plus i.v. paclitaxel (175 mg m(-2), day 1) in anthracycline-pretreated advanced/MBC. In all, 73 patients were enrolled at 13 Swedish and Spanish centres. The objective response rate was 52% (95% confidence interval (CI): 40-63%) in the intent-to-treat population, including complete responses in 11%. Disease was stabilised in a further 29%. The median time to disease progression (TTP) was 8.1 months and the median overall survival was 16.5 months. The combination was generally well tolerated with a predictable safety profile. The most common treatment-related nonhaematological adverse events were hand-foot syndrome (42%), alopecia (30%) and diarrhoea (26%). The only treatment-related Grade 3/4 adverse events occurring in >5% of patients were alopecia (22%) and hand-foot syndrome (11%). Grade 3/4 neutropenia and lymphocytopenia were reported in 12 and 14% of patients, respectively. Capecitabine plus paclitaxel is highly active with a favourable safety profile in anthracycline-pretreated MBC.

Autoionisation of superexcited states in N-2 to the N2+B state

- Vibrationally resolved N-2(+) (B-X) (1-2) and (0-1) emission bands were recorded after photoexcitation of N-2 in the 20-46 eV energy range. The branching ratio between these transitions reveals strong non-Franck-Condon effects. Ab initio calculations using a configuration interaction method based on Kohn-Sham orbitals indicate that the autoionisation of certain superexcited states is responsible for some structures present in the branching ratio curve.
