Collins asymmetries in inclusive charged K K and K π pairs produced in e + e - annihilation
Here, we present measurements of Collins asymmetries in the inclusive process e + e - →h 1 h 2 X, h 1 h 2 = KK, Kπ, ππ, at the center-of-mass energy of 10.6 GeV, using a data sample of 468 fb -1 collected by the BABAR experiment at the PEP-II B factory at SLAC National Accelerator Center. Considering hadrons in opposite thrust hemispheres of hadronic events, we observe clear azimuthal asymmetries in the ratio of unlike sign to like sign, and unlike sign to all charged h 1 h 2 pairs, which increase with hadron energies. The Kπ asymmetries are similar to those measured for the ππ pairs, whereas those measured for high-energy KK pairs are, in general, larger.

Measurements of the charge asymmetry in top-quark pair production in the dilepton final state at s = 8 TeV with the ATLAS detector
We presented measurements of the top-antitop quark pair production charge asymmetry in the dilepton channel, characterized by two high- pT leptons (electrons or muons), using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20.3 fb $-$1 from pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s}$ = 8 TeV collected with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. Inclusive and differential measurements as a function of the invariant mass, transverse momentum, and longitudinal boost of the $t\bar{t}$ system are performed both in the full phase space and in a fiducial phase space closely matching the detector acceptance. Two observables are studied: A $ℓℓ\atop{C}$ based on the selected leptons and A$t\bar{t}\atop{C}$ based on the reconstructed $t\bar{t}$ final state. The inclusive asymmetries are measured in the full phase space to be A $ℓℓ\atop{C}$ = 0.008 ± 0.006 and A$t\bar{t}\atop{C}$= 0.021 ± 0.016 , which are in agreement with the Standard Model predictions of A $ℓℓ\atop{C}$ = 0.0064 ± 0.0003 and A$t\bar{t}\atop{C}$ = 0.0111 ± 0.0004 .

Measurement of the direct CP violating charge asymmetry in $B^\pm \rightarrow \mu^\pm \nu_\mu D^{0}$ decays
We present the first measurement of the CP violating charge asymmetry in B±→μ±νμD0 decays using the full Run II integrated luminosity of 10.4 fb-1 in proton-antiproton collisions collected with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. We measure a difference in the yield of B- and B+ mesons in these decays by fitting the reconstructed invariant mass distributions. This results in an asymmetry of AμD0=[-0.14±0.20]%, which is consistent with standard model predictions.

Observation of Two Charged Bottomoniumlike Resonances in Υ ( 5 S ) Decays
We report the observation of two narrow structures in the mass spectra of the π±Υ(nS) (n=1, 2, 3) and π±hb(mP) (m=1, 2) pairs that are produced in association with a single charged pion in Υ(5S) decays. The measured masses and widths of the two structures averaged over the five final states are M1=(10 607.2±2.0) MeV/c 2 , Γ 1 =(18.4±2.4) MeV, and M 2 =(10 652.2±1.5) MeV/c 2 , Γ 2 =(11.5±2.2) MeV. The results are obtained with a 121.4 fb -1 data sample collected with the Belle detector in the vicinity of the Υ(5S) resonance at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider.

Measurement of the W Boson Production Charge Asymmetry in p p ¯ → W + X → e ν + X Events at s = 1.96 TeV
We present a measurement of the W boson production charge asymmetry in p$\bar{p}$→W+X→eν+X events at a center of mass energy of 1.96 TeV, using 9.7 fb -1 of integrated luminosity collected with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The neutrino longitudinal momentum is determined by using a neutrino weighting method, and the asymmetry is measured as a function of the W boson rapidity. The measurement extends over wider electron pseudorapidity region than previous results and is the most precise to date, allowing for precise determination of proton parton distribution functions in global fits.

Neutron Time-of-Flight Measurements of Charged-Particle Energy Loss in Inertial Confinement Fusion Plasmas
Neutron spectra from secondary 3 H(d,n)α reactions produced by an implosion of a deuterium-gas capsule at the National Ignition Facility have been measured with order-of-magnitude improvements in statistics and resolution over past experiments. Furthermore, these new data and their sensitivity to the energy loss of fast tritons emitted from thermal 2 H(d,p) 3 H reactions enable the first statistically significant investigation of charged-particle stopping via the emitted neutron spectrum. Radiation-hydrodynamic simulations, constrained to match a number of observables from the implosion, were used to predict the neutron spectra while employing two different energy loss models. This analysis represents the first test of stopping models under inertial confinement fusion conditions, covering plasma temperatures of k B T ≈ 1–4 keV and particle densities of n ≈ (12–2) × 10 24 cm –3 . Under these conditions, we find significant deviations of our data from a theory employing classical collisions whereas the theory including quantum diffraction agrees with our data.

Charged iodide in chains behind the highly efficient iodine doping in carbon nanotubes
The origin of highly efficient iodine doping of carbon nanotubes is not well understood. Relying on first- principles calculations, we found that iodine molecules (I 2 ) in contact with a carbon nanotube interact to form monoiodide or/and polyiodide from two and three I 2 as a result of removing electrons from the carbon nanotube (p-type doping). Charge per iodine atom for monoiodide ion or iodine atom at end of iodine chain is significantly higher than that for I 2 . This atomic analysis extends previous studies showing that polyiodide ions are the dominant dopants. Moreover, we observed isolated I atoms in atomically resolved transmission electron microscopy, which proves the production of monoiodide. Lastly, using Raman spectroscopy, we quantitatively determined the doping level and estimated the number of conducting channels in high electrical conductivity fibers composed of iodine-doped double-wall carbon nanotubes.

Solvation sheath reorganization enables divalent metal batteries with fast interfacial charge transfer kinetics
Efficient, rechargeable Mg and Ca batteries Divalent rechargeable metal batteries such as those based on magnesium and calcium are of interest because of the abundance of these elements and their lower tendency to form dendrites, but practical demonstrations are lacking. Hou et al . used methoxyethyl amine chelants in which the ligands attach to the metal atom in more than one place, modulating the solvation structure of the metal ions to enable a facile charge-transfer reaction (see the Perspective by Zuo and Yin). In full battery cells, these components lead to high efficiency and energy density. Theoretical calculations were used to understand the solvation structures. —MSL

Screening of a charged dust particle within a nonlocal charging theory
We study the influence of the nonlocality of the electron energy distribution function on the dust particle charge screening in a two-component plasma of various inert gases and nitrogen at atmospheric pressure. For our analytical and numerical calculations, we have chosen the point sink model in the diffusion-drift approximation, which, in addition to the bulk production and loss of electrons and ions, also includes the heterogeneous processes of their absorption by a dust particle. We have established that the dust particle potential distribution in the problem under consideration is a superposition of three Debye exponentials with three different screening constants. The first constant practically coincides with the inverse Debye length. The second constant is determined by the inverse length travelled by the electrons and ions in the ambipolar diffusion process in the characteristic recombination time. The third constant coincides with the inverse characteristic distance of electron energy transfer through heat conduction in the characteristic time of electron energy establishment in the processes of heating by a beam of fast electrons and energy losses in elastic and inelastic collisions. We compare our numerical calculations of the screening constants with the analytical estimates obtained in the ambipolar diffusion approximation.

Measurement of the charge asymmetry in top quark pair production in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}=7\ \mathrm{TeV}$ using the ATLAS detector
A measurement of the top-antitop production charge asymmetry A C is presented using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.04 fb -1 of pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC. Events are selected with a single lepton (electron or muon), missing transverse momentum and at least four jets of which at least one jet is identified as coming from a b-quark. A kinematic fit is used to reconstruct the tt event topology. After background subtraction, a Bayesian unfolding procedure is performed to correct for acceptance and detector effects. The measured value of A C is A C =-0.019±0.028 (stat.)±0.024 (syst.), consistent with the prediction from the MC@NLO Monte Carlo generator of A C = 0.006±0.002. Measurements of A C in two ranges of invariant mass of the top-antitop pair are also shown.

Measurement of the azimuthal anisotropy of charged particles produced in $\sqrt{s_{_\text {NN}}}$ = 5.02 TeV Pb+Pb collisions with the ATLAS detector
Measurements of the azimuthal anisotropy in lead–lead collisions at $\sqrt{s_{_\text {NN}}}$ = 5.02 TeV are presented using a data sample corresponding to 0.49 nb -1 integrated luminosity collected by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC in 2015. The recorded minimum-bias sample is enhanced by triggers for “ultra-central” collisions, providing an opportunity to perform detailed study of flow harmonics in the regime where the initial state is dominated by fluctuations. The anisotropy of the charged-particle azimuthal angle distributions is characterized by the Fourier coefficients, v 2 - v 7 , which are measured using the two-particle correlation, scalar-product and event-plane methods. The goal of the paper is to provide measurements of the differential as well as integrated flow harmonics v n over wide ranges of the transverse momentum, 0.5 < p T < 60 GeV, the pseudorapidity, |η|< 2.5, and the collision centrality 0–80%. Results from different methods are compared and discussed in the context of previous and recent measurements in Pb+Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{_\text {NN}}}$ = 2.76 TeV and 5.02 TeV . In particular, the shape of the p T dependence of elliptic or triangular flow harmonics is observed to be very similar at different centralities after scaling the v n and p T values by constant factors over the centrality interval 0–60% and the p T range 0.5 < p T < 5 GeV.
