Observation of a new charged charmoniumlike state in B ¯ 0 → J / ψ K – π + decays
We present the results of an amplitude analysis of B¯ 0 → J/ψK – π + decays. A new charged charmoniumlike state Z c (4200) + decaying to J/ψπ + is observed with a significance of 6.2σ. The mass and width of the Z c (4200) + are 4196$^{+31+17}_{–29–13}$ MeV/c 2 and 370$^{+70+70}_{–70–132}$ MeV, respectively; the preferred assignment of the quantum numbers is J P = 1 + . In addition, we find evidence for Z c (4430) + → J/ψπ + . In conclusion, the analysis is based on a 711 fb –1 data sample collected by the Belle detector at the asymmetric-energy e + e – collider KEKB.

Lattice calculation of nucleon isovector axial charge with improved currents
We employ dimension-4 operators to improve the local vector and axial-vector currents and calculate the nucleon isovector axial coupling $g$ ${^3}_{A}$ with overlap valence on 2 + 1-flavor domain wall fermion (DWF) sea. Using the equality of $g$ ${^3}_{A}$ from the spatial and temporal components of the axial-vector current as a normalization condition, we find that $g$ ${^3}_{A}$ is increased by a few percent towards the experimental value. Here, the excited-state contamination has been taken into account with three time separations between the source and sink. The improved axial charges $g$ ${^3}_{A}$ (24I) = 1.22 (4) (3) and $g$ ${^3}_{A}$ (32I) = 1.21 (3)(3) are obtained on a 24 3 × 64 lattice at pion mass of 330 MeV and a 32 3 × 64 lattice at pion mass 300 MeV and are increased by 3.4% and 1.7% from their unimproved values, respectively. We have also used clover fermions on the same DWF configurations and find the same behavior for the local axial charge as that with overlap fermions.

Colossal Density-Driven Resistance Response in the Negative Charge Transfer Insulator MnS 2
A reversible density driven insulator to metal to insulator transition in high-spin MnS 2 is experimentally observed, leading with a colossal electrical resistance drop of $10^8$ Omega by 12 GPa. Density functional theory simulations reveal the metallization to be unexpectedly driven by previously unoccupied $S_{2}^{-2}$ $\sigma^{*}_{3p}$ antibonding states crossing the Fermi level. This is a unique variant of the charge transfer insulator to metal transition for negative charge transfer insulators having anions with an unsaturated valence. By 36 GPa the emergence of the low-spin insulating arsenopyrite ($P2_1/c$) is confirmed, and the bulk metallicity is broken with the system returning to an insulative electronic state.

First Measurement of $𝜈_𝑒$ and $\bar{𝜈}_𝑒$ Charged-Current Single Charged-Pion Production Differential Cross Sections on Argon Using the MicroBooNE Detector
Understanding electron neutrino interactions is crucial for measurements of neutrino oscillations and searches for new physics in neutrino experiments. We present the first measurement of the flux-averaged $𝜈_𝑒$ + $\bar{𝜈}_𝑒$ charged-current single charged-pion production cross section on argon using the MicroBooNE detector and data from the NuMI neutrino beam. The total cross section is measured to be [0.93 ± 0.13(stat) ± 0.27(syst)] × 10 −39 cm 2 /nucleon at a mean $𝜈_𝑒$ + $\bar{𝜈}_𝑒$ energy of 730 MeV. Differential cross sections are also reported in electron energy, electron and pion angles, and electron-pion opening angle.

Three-Dimensional Charge Density Wave Order in YBa2Cu3O6.67 at High Magnetic Fields
Charge density wave (CDW) correlations have been shown to universally exist in cuprate superconductors. However, their nature at high fields inferred from nuclear magnetic resonance is distinct from that measured by x-ray scattering at zero and low fields. Here we combine a pulsed magnet with an x-ray free electron laser to characterize the CDW in YBa2Cu3O6.67 via x-ray scattering in fields up to 28 Tesla. While the zero-field CDW order, which develops below T ~ 150 K, is essentially two-dimensional, at lower temperature and beyond 15 Tesla, another three-dimensionally ordered CDW emerges. The field-induced CDW onsets around the zero-field superconducting transition temperature, yet the incommensurate inplane ordering vector is field-independent. This implies that the two forms of CDW and hightemperature superconductivity are intimately linked.

Search for doubly charged scalar bosons decaying into same-sign W boson pairs with the ATLAS detector
A search for doubly charged scalar bosons decaying into W boson pairs is presented. It uses a data sample from proton–proton collisions corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb -1 collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV in 2015 and 2016. This search is guided by a model that includes an extension of the Higgs sector through a scalar triplet, leading to a rich phenomenology that includes doubly charged scalar bosons H ±<!-- ± --> ±<!-- ± --> . Those bosons are produced in pairs in proton–proton collisions and decay predominantly into electroweak gauge bosons H ±<!-- ± --> ±<!-- ± --> →<!-- → --> W ±<!-- ± --> W ±<!-- ± --> . Experimental signatures with several leptons, missing transverse energy and jets are explored. No significant deviations from the Standard Model predictions are found. The parameter space of the benchmark model is excluded at 95% confidence level for H ±<!-- ± --> ±<!-- ± --> bosons with masses between 200 and 220 GeV.

Measurement of the cross-section and charge asymmetry of W bosons produced in proton–proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}=8~\text {TeV}$ with the ATLAS detector
This paper presents measurements of the W + → μ + ν and W - → μ-ν cross-sections and the associated charge asymmetry as a function of the absolute pseudorapidity of the decay muon. The data were collected in proton–proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV with the ATLAS experiment at the LHC and correspond to a total integrated luminosity of 20.2 fb -1 . The precision of the cross-section measurements varies between 0.8 and 1.5% as a function of the pseudorapidity, excluding the 1.9% uncertainty on the integrated luminosity. The charge asymmetry is measured with an uncertainty between 0.002 and 0.003. The results are compared with predictions based on next-to-next-to-leading-order calculations with various parton distribution functions and have the sensitivity to discriminate between them.

Progress toward double-differential cross-section measurements of single charged-pion production in charged current muon neutrino interactions on argon with SBND
Resonant neutrino–nucleus processes constitute a significant portion of neutrino interactions in the few-GeV energy region. Charged-current interactions with a muon and one single charged pion in the final state (CC1$\pi$) are primarily sensitive to resonant processes, while also receiving contributions from non-resonant processes and being strongly affected by nuclear effects and final-state interactions. A precise understanding of this channel is essential for improving neutrino interaction models and reducing systematic uncertainties in oscillation measurements. The Short-Baseline Near Detector (SBND) at Fermilab has collected the largest neutrino–argon dataset to date, providing an excellent opportunity to study CC1$\pi$ interactions on argon. This analysis aims to improve existing single-differential cross-section measurements by reporting results in a variety of kinematic variables and to perform the first double-differential CC1$\pi$ cross-section measurement on argon, using novel techniques for pion energy reconstruction.

Vehicle charging effects during electron beam emission from the CHARGE-2 experiment
The CHARGE-2 sounding rocket payload has measured the transient and steady-state charging of a spacecraft in LEO during the emission of a low-power electron beam. The electron beam successfully escaped the emitting spacecraft above 240 km, rather than being degraded by the spacecraft's potentials. These potentials were limited to about half of the 1-kV beam accelerating potential at all latitudes, suggesting that the electron beam was able to escape at altitudes down to 160 km. Electrons created from beam-plasma interactions become increasingly important in the return current below 240 km, and increased with decreasing altitude.

Charge Loss and Charge Sharing Measurements for Two Different Pixelated Cadmium-Zinc-Telluride Detectors
As part of ongoing research at Marshall Space Flight Center, Cadmium-Zinc- Telluride (CdZnTe) pixilated detectors are being developed for use at the focal plane of the High Energy Replicated Optics (HERO) telescope. HERO requires a 64x64 pixel array with a spatial resolution of around 200 microns (with a 6m focal length) and high energy resolution (< 2% at 60keV). We are currently testing smaller arrays as a necessary first step towards this goal. In this presentation, we compare charge sharing and charge loss measurements between two devices that differ both electronically and geometrically. The first device consists of a 1-mm-thick piece of CdZnTe that is sputtered with a 4x4 array of pixels with pixel pitch of 750 microns (inter-pixel gap is 100 microns). The signal is read out using discrete ultra-low-noise preamplifiers, one for each of the 16 pixels. The second detector consists of a 2-mm-thick piece of CdZnTe that is sputtered with a 16x16 array of pixels with a pixel pitch of 300 microns (inter-pixel gap is 50 microns). Instead of using discrete preamplifiers, the crystal is bonded to an ASIC that provides all of the front-end electronics to each of the 256 pixels. what degree the bias voltage (i.e. the electric field) and hence the drift and diffusion coefficients affect our measurements. Further, we compare the measured results with simulated results and discuss to
