Abstract: Abstract We present a measurement of the ratio R μ = B τ − → μ − ν ¯ μ ν τ / B τ − → e − ν ¯ e ν τ $$ {R}_{\mu }=\mathcal{B}\left({\tau}^{-}\to {\mu}^{-}{\overline{\nu}}_{\mu }{\nu}_{\tau}\right)/\mathcal{B}\left({\tau}^{-}\to {e}^{-}{\overline{\nu}}_e{\nu}_{\tau}\right) $$ of branching fractions B $$ \mathcal{B} $$ of the τ lepton decaying to muons or electrons using data collected with the Belle II detector at the SuperKEKB e + e − collider. The sample has an integrated luminosity of 362 ± 2 fb −1 at a centre-of-mass energy of 10.58 GeV. Using an optimised event selection, a binned maximum likelihood fit is performed using the momentum spectra of the electron and muon candidates. The result, R μ = 0.9675 ± 0.0007 ± 0.0036, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic, is the most precise to date. It provides a stringent test of the light-lepton universality, translating to a ratio of the couplings of the muon and electron to the W boson in τ decays of 0.9974 ± 0.0019, in agreement with the standard model expectation of unity.

2. Associations between the breeding values of Holstein-Friesian bulls and longevity and culling reasons of their daughters

Author: K. Adamczyk, W. Jagusiak, and A. Węglarz
Subjects: Breeding decisions, Dairy cattle, Functional traits, Genetic value, Stayability, Animal culture, SF1-1100
Abstract: Taking into account functional traits in the breeding practice should lead to a longer productive life of cows. However, despite the increased contribution of these traits in bull selection indices, their daughters are frequently culled as early as the 2nd or 3rd lactation. The problem is whether and to what extent the genetic potential of animals is realized in the production practice. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine the associations between the breeding value (BV) of bulls and their daughters for cow longevity and culling reasons in the Holstein-Friesian cattle population in Poland. Data for 532 062 cows culled in 2012, 2015, and 2018 were analyzed. A majority of 5 045 cow sires originated from Poland, Germany, France, the Netherlands, and the United States. The highest variation in the contribution of culling reasons was for the cows culled at the age of 2–4 years. The contribution of the culling reasons, analyzed in relation to the cow culling age, remained similar and the only exception was culling because of old age, for which a significant increase was observed only for the culling age of at least 9 years (13.8%), which was reached by only 7.3% of the cows. The sires were characterized by generally high BV for conformation and reproductive traits. However, they had, at most, the average genetic potential for functional longevity. There were a number of beneficial associations found between the BV of bulls and the distribution of culling reasons in their daughters. For example, it concerns relations between the somatic cell score in milk and culling due to udder diseases and low milk yield, between the interval from calving to first insemination and low milk yield, between the protein yield and old age, or between the BV for certain conformation traits (size, udder) and cow culling due to age. In these cases, as the BV increased for a given trait, the contribution of the corresponding cow culling reason tended to decrease. Our study showed that it seems reasonable to consider Holstein-Friesian cows aged at least 9 years at culling to be long-living animals. This is primarily evidenced by the rapid increase in the culling due to old age in relation to younger cows. Nowadays the above age limit can be suggested as a criterion of longevity for Holstein-Friesian cows but the criterion should be updated to the relation genotype-environment-economy that tends to change over time.

3. Associations between strain, herd size, age at first calving, culling reason and lifetime performance characteristics in Holstein-Friesian cows

Author: K. Adamczyk, J. Makulska, W. Jagusiak, and A. Węglarz
Subjects: Holstein-Friesian strains, cow use intensity, longevity, lifetime milk production, culling reason, Animal culture, SF1-1100
Abstract: Cow longevity and lifetime performance traits are good indicators of breeding effectiveness and animal welfare. They are also interrelated with the economics of dairy herd. Unfortunately, a high milk yield is often associated with deteriorated cow health and fertility and, consequently, with an increased culling rate. This situation, observed also in the Polish population of Holstein-Friesian cattle, inspired us to undertake a study on the associations between some factors and lifetime performance characteristics. The data set consisted of the records on 135 496 cows, including 131 526 of the Black and White strain (BW), and 3970 of the Red and White strain (RW) covered by performance recording and culled in 2012. It was found that cows of the BW strain and those from the largest herds (>100 cows) reached higher lifetime and mean daily energy-corrected milk (ECM) yields than cows of the RW strain and those from smaller herds culled at a similar age. Cows youngest at first calving (

4. Reappraisal is less effective than distraction in downregulation of neural responses to physical threats—An <scp>event‐related potential</scp> investigation

Abstract: Contains fulltext : 292660.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access) Evolutionary threats (ETs), such as predatory animals and heights, elicit stronger fear responses and are more often the subject of specific phobias, as compared to modern threats (MTs, such as guns and motorcycles). Since processing of ET depends on lower-order, phylogenetically conserved neural fear circuits, it may be less susceptible to higher-order (vs. simpler) cognitive emotion regulation. Given the relevance for treatment of specific phobias, we tested this hypothesis in an ERP study. Sixty-one female participants passively watched high- and low-threat pictures of evolutionary (snakes, lizards) and modern (guns, water-guns) origin, and downregulated responses to the high-threat pictures (snakes and guns) using either cognitive reappraisal or a simpler cognitive distraction strategy. ET elicited stronger early (EPN) and sustained (LPP) attention processing compared to MT. Both strategies successfully downregulated subjective and LPP (but not EPN) responses compared to passive watching. Although reappraisal was more effective subjectively, distraction downregulated the LPP earlier and stronger than reappraisal, irrespective of the threat type. These findings provide novel evidence that neural responses to physical threat might be less susceptible to cognitive emotion regulation via higher-order (reappraisal) versus simpler (distraction) strategies, irrespective of the evolutionary or modern relevance of threat. Combining both strategies could be beneficial for the emotion regulation-enhancing interventions for specific phobias. Distraction could be used during initial exposure, to reduce immediate emotion responding and help endure the contact with the feared stimulus, whereas reappraisal could be used subsequently, when emotions are less intense, to change maladaptive thoughts about the stimulus for future encounters. 10 mei 2023 16 p.

Abstract: Implicit forms of emotion regulation are of growing interest and have been shown to be efficient in controlling emotional responses despite the fact that they operate without conscious awareness of the ongoing regulatory process and deliberate attempts to influence emotional responding. Although such forms of affective modulation are considered natural and crucial for mental health, their brain mechanisms have hardly been studied until now. Here, we employ a novel procedure and compare directly brain responses to emotional stimuli after implicitly inducing either a self-control goal or a reappraisal goal with a scrambled sentence task. Both induction methods showed robust attenuation of visual, attentional, and emotion-related brain networks. Moreover, after induction of the self-control goal we observed increased activity in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) and the right insula, which are involved in top-down modulation of emotional responses. Reappraisal goal induction led to weaker activation in the right dlPFC, which was localized similarly as in the self-control induction task. Our results not only confirm the effectiveness of implicit induction of affective control, but also indicate the important similarities in underlying neural mechanisms that are putatively shared with conscious forms of emotional regulation.

6. Health behaviours of pregnant women and gestational weight gains – a pilot study

Author: Edyta Suliga and Olga K. Adamczyk-Gruszka
Subjects: body mass index, gestational weight gain, eating habits, Medicine
Abstract: Introduction: Abnormal weight gain during pregnancy may exert a negative effect on the development of the foetus, the course of pregnancy, and later the state of health of the mother and her baby. Due to the unfavourable health consequences of abnormal body weight gains in expectant mothers studies of the factors that determine the amount of these gains are important. Aim of the research : Evaluation of the relationship between health behaviours in pregnancy, nutritional status before pregnancy, selected socio-demographic factors, and gestational weight gain. Material and methods : The investigation included 274 women. Using a questionnaire, information was collected pertaining to the place of residence, age, body height and weight, cigarette smoking, and eating habits during pregnancy. The total weight gain during pregnancy was calculated as the difference between perinatal weight and pre-pregnancy body weight. Gestational weight gains were classified as low, recommended, or high. Results: Increased risk of high weight gain was associated with the consumption of alcoholic beverages (odds ratio (OR) = 2.82), especially beer (OR = 2.72), high consumption of products supplying proteins of animal origin (OR = 2.87), and overweight before pregnancy (OR = 3.37), as well as the delivery being the mother’s first, compared to the third and subsequent childbirth (OR = 4.17). Conclusions: This study indicates that there is a need for health education among females at reproductive age in order to reduce excess weight before conception, and promotion of adequate health behaviours in pregnancy, which would allow the maintenance of normal weight gain during this period.

7. Mechanical small bowel obstruction as a complication of pregnancy

Author: Olga K. Adamczyk-Gruszka, Izabela J. Lewandowska-Andruszuk, Stanisław Głuszek, and Jakub A. Gruszka
Subjects: pregnancy, mechanical intestinal obstruction, resection of the intestine, Medicine
Abstract: Abdominal pain is a common complaint in pregnancy. Intestinal obstruction reported in pregnancy varies, ranging from 1 in 1500 to 1 in 66431 pregnancies. Unfortunately, “dormant alertness” can lead to delayed surgical intervention, which in turn can increase the risk of complications that pose a threat to the mother as well as her foetus. The paper presents a case of a 23-year-old pregnant woman diagnosed with mechanical small bowel obstruction in 27 hbd, which required surgical emergency operation. The necrotic loop of the small intestine was resected. Despite tocolysis, which was necessary on the second day following the surgery, the patient was discharged home in good condition, with her pregnancy intact.

Abstract: An ideal nanofabrication method should allow the organization of nanoparticles and molecules with nanometric positional precision, stoichiometric control and well-defined orientation. The DNA origami technique has evolved into a highly versatile bottom-up nanofabrication methodology that fulfils almost all of these features. It enables the nanometric positioning of molecules and nanoparticles with stoichiometric control, and even the orientation of asymmetrical nanoparticles along predefined directions. However, orienting individual molecules has been a standing challenge, mainly due to unspecific electrostatic interactions. Here, we show how single molecules, namely Cy5 and Cy3 fluorophores, can be incorporated in a DNA origami with controlled orientation by doubly linking them to oligonucleotide strands that are hybridized while leaving enough unpaired bases to induce a stretching force. Particularly, we explore the effects of leaving 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8 unpaired bases and find extreme orientations for 0 and 8 unpaired bases, corresponding to the molecules being perpendicular and parallel to the DNA double helix, respectively. We foresee that these results will expand the application field of DNA origami towards the fabrication of nanodevices involving a wide range of orientation-dependent molecular interactions, such as energy transfer, intermolecular electron transport, catalysis, exciton delocalization, or the electromagnetic coupling of a molecule to specific resonant nano-antennas modes., 24 pages, 4 figures

Abstract: Memory modification technologies (MMTs) - interventions within the memory affecting its functions and contents in specific ways - raise great therapeutic hopes but also great fears. Ethicists have expressed concerns that developing and using MMTs may endanger the very fabric of who we are - our personal identity. This threat has been mainly considered in relation to two interrelated concerns: truthfulness and narrative self-constitution. In this article, we propose that although this perspective brings up important matters concerning the potential aftermaths of MMT utilization, it fails to tell the whole story. We suggest that capturing more tangible potential consequences of MMT use, namely, its psychological ramifications is crucial both in ethical considerations and in making decisions regarding the permissibility of such interventions. To this end, we first examine what current MMTs are capable of and what are the prospects of emerging MMTs. Subsequently, we outline the relationship between memory and personal identity; specifically, we indicate that concepts of self-defining memories and narrative identity are crucial to considering how MMTs may influence one's psychological functioning. On this basis, we analyze potential consequences of narrative disruption that may be the result of the use of MMTs; more precisely, we consider its potential effects on mental health, well-being, and personal agency, and outline the ethical dilemmas that decision-makers face in this context. We conclude by considering the broader cultural context that may have influence on policymaking regarding permissibility of memory modification interventions.

11. Offline rTMS inhibition of the bilateral dorsolateral prefrontal cortex impairs reappraisal efficacy

Author: Miroslaw Wyczesany, Agnieszka K Adamczyk, Justyna Hobot, Giansalvo Barbalinardo, Przemysław Adamczyk, Adam Labaza, and Tomasz S Ligeza
Abstract: In the study we verified the causal role of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex in performing reappraisal strategy of emotional control. Subjects underwent three sessions of inhibitory offline theta burst TMS stimulation that was targeted at either left dorsolateral, right dorsolateral or vertex area. During the experimental task they were asked to either passively watch or reappraise affective pictures. Efficacy of emotional control was quantified using the late positivity potential of the evoked brain responses. After both left and right dorsolateral stimulation, reappraisal was compromised compared to the vertex session. Worsening of affective control was reflected in earlier but not later time windows of the late positivity. It is suggested that inhibitory stimulation primarily affected top-down mechanism of attentional deployment necessary to focus on the content of experimental stimuli that enables elaboration of new, less negative interpretation of emotional content.

Abstract: Contains fulltext : 278933.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access) In this study we verified the causal role of the bilateral dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) in emotional regulation using a strategy of reappraisal, which involves intentionally changing the meaning of an affective event to reduce its emotional impact. Healthy participants (n = 26; mean age = 25.4) underwent three sessions of inhibitory continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS) applied on three different days over the left or right DLPFC, or the vertex. After applying the stimulation protocol participants were presented with neutral and negative pictorial stimuli that had to be either passively watched or reappraised. The efficacy of emotional control was quantified using the Late Positive Potential (LPP), the neural marker of motivated attention and elaborated stimulus processing. The results showed that reappraisal was compromised after inhibitory stimulation of the right DLPFC compared to the vertex. This impairment of affective modulation was reflected in both early (350-750 ms) and late (750-1500 ms) time windows. As no session differences during the passive watching conditions were found, the decrease in reappraisal efficacy due to non-specific changes in basic perceptual processing was considered unlikely. Instead, we suggest that inhibition of the right DLPFC primarily affects the top-down mechanism of attentional deployment. This results in disturbances of attentional processes that are necessary to thoroughly elaborate the content of affective stimuli to enable their new, less negative interpretation. 12 p.

Abstract: Optogenetics is an invasive neuromodulation technology involving the use of light to control the activity of individual neurons. Even though optogenetics is a relatively new neuromodulation tool whose various implications have not yet been scrutinized, it has already been approved for its first clinical trials in humans. As optogenetics is being intensively investigated in animal models with the aim of developing novel brain stimulation treatments for various neurological and psychiatric disorders, it appears crucial to consider both the opportunities and dangers such therapies may offer. In this review, we focus on the memory-modifying potential of optogenetics, investigating what it is capable of and how it differs from other memory modification technologies (MMTs). We then outline the safety challenges that need to be addressed before optogenetics can be used in humans. Finally, we re-examine crucial neuroethical concerns expressed in regard to other MMTs in the light of optogenetics and address those that appear to be unique to the memory-modifying potential of optogenetic technology.

Abstract: Purpose: PAN/GO nanocomposites are gaining more and more interest from research and industrial environments. According to theoretical studies and experimental tests, PAN/ GO exhibits excellent properties such as tensile strength, good thermal and electrical conductivity, excellent thermal and tribological properties. Thanks to this property, the composite is considered the ideal successor to the nanocomposites used so far. The PAN/GO nanocomposite has great potential in the filtration, automotive, electrical and photovoltaic industry. Design/methodology/approach: The spin-coating process is used to produce thin layers by centrifuging a liquid substance on flat surfaces. The advantages of the spin- coating process are simplicity and ease with which the process can be carried out. Due to the ability to high spin speeds, high airflow leads to fast drying time, which in turn results in high consistency in both macroscopic and nanometre scales. The spin-coting method is usually the starting point and reference point for most academic and industrial processes that require a thin and uniform coating. The use of spin coating has a wide spectrum. This technique can be used to coat small substrates (from a few square mm) up to the coating of flat displays, e.g. TV sets, which may have a meter or more in diameter. Findings: Among the existing methods for producing thin layers, including physical and chemical methods for gas phase deposition or the self-assembly process, the spin-coating process makes it possible to produce uniform thin nanocomposite layers in an easy and cheap way. Spin coating is usually the starting point and reference point for most academic and industrial processes that require a thin and uniform coating. The advantage of the method is the wide spectrum of use. It is used for coating substrates with everything from photoresists, insulators, organic semiconductors, synthetic metals, nanomaterials, metal precursors and metal oxides, transparent conductive oxides and many other materials. Often, spin coating is used to unravel polymer layers or photoresist on semiconductor substrates. Research limitations/implications: Due to the ongoing research on the potential applications of PAN/GO thin layers, including electronics, automotive and photovoltaics, it is worth trying to optimize the parameters of the spin-coiling process such as rotational speed or duration of the process. It is also worth trying to optimize the concentration of GO in the nanocomposite. Practical implications: Despite mixing the solution with an ultrasonic homogenizer to disperse the nanoparticles, the particles dispersed to form a rough surface. Originality/value: Low-cost, easy to carry out method of producing thin nanocomposite layers, having significant application in laboratory environments.

Abstract: This study was designed to investigate the neural mechanism of cognitive modulation of pain via a reappraisal strategy with high temporal resolution. The EEG signal was recorded from 29 participants who were instructed to down-regulate, up-regulate, or maintain their pain experience. The L2 minimum norm source reconstruction method was used to localize areas in which a significant effect of the instruction was present. Down-regulating pain by reappraisal exerted a robust effect on pain processing from as early as ~100 ms that diminished the activity of limbic brain regions: the anterior cingulate cortex, right orbitofrontal cortex, left anterior temporal region, and left insula. However, compared with the no-regulation condition, the neural activity was similarly attenuated in the up- and down-regulation conditions. We suggest that this effect could be ascribed to the cognitive load that was associated with the execution of a cognitively demanding reappraisal task that could have produced a general attenuation of pain-related areas regardless of the aim of the reappraisal task (i.e., up- or down-regulation attempts). These findings indicate that reappraisal effects reflect the joint influence of both reappraisal-specific (cognitive change) and unspecific (cognitive demand) factors, thus pointing to the importance of cautiously selected control conditions that allow the modulating impact of both processes to be distinguished.

Abstract: We report a measurement of the D^{0} and D^{+} lifetimes using D^{0}→K^{-}π^{+} and D^{+}→K^{-}π^{+}π^{+} decays reconstructed in e^{+}e^{-}→cc[over ¯] data recorded by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB asymmetric-energy e^{+}e^{-} collider. The data, collected at center-of-mass energies at or near the ϒ(4S) resonance, correspond to an integrated luminosity of 72 fb^{-1}. The results, τ(D^{0})=410.5±1.1(stat)±0.8(syst) fs and τ(D^{+})=1030.4±4.7(stat)±3.1(syst) fs, are the most precise to date and are consistent with previous determinations.

Abstract: A search for the flavor-changing neutral-current decay B^{+}→K^{+}νν[over ¯] is performed at the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB asymmetric energy electron-positron collider. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 63 fb^{-1} collected at the ϒ(4S) resonance and a sample of 9 fb^{-1} collected at an energy 60 MeV below the resonance. Because the measurable decay signature involves only a single charged kaon, a novel measurement approach is used that exploits not only the properties of the B^{+}→K^{+}νν[over ¯] decay, but also the inclusive properties of the other B meson in the ϒ(4S)→BB[over ¯] event, to suppress the background from other B meson decays and light-quark pair production. This inclusive tagging approach offers a higher signal efficiency compared to previous searches. No significant signal is observed. An upper limit on the branching fraction of B^{+}→K^{+}νν[over ¯] of 4.1×10^{-5} is set at the 90% confidence level.

19. High working memory load impairs reappraisal but facilitates distraction - An event-related potential investigation

Abstract: Contains fulltext : 248751.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access) The present experiments investigated the impact of working memory (WM) load on emotion regulation (ER) efficacy using reappraisal (Experiment 1, n = 30) and distraction (Experiment 2, n = 30). Considering that WM is necessary for storage, elaboration, and manipulation of information and that reappraisal acts by storing, elaborating, and manipulating the stimulus meaning, we hypothesized that high (versus low) WM-load would reduce reappraisal efficacy. By contrast, given that distraction acts by blocking elaborated processing of the stimulus meaning, we expected that high WM-load would enhance distraction efficacy. To test these predictions, we employed a dual-task paradigm in which a low- or high WM-load task was combined with an ER (reappraisal or distraction) task. We measured the Late Positive Potential (LPP)-an electrocortical marker of sustained motivated attention, and a well-established index of emotional arousal-in response to negative pictures. Results confirmed that although reappraisal successfully reduced the LPP amplitude in the down- compared to up-regulation condition in low WM-load trials, high WM-load eliminated this difference, suggesting the disrupting influence of high WM-load on ER for reappraisal (experiment 1). By contrast, although distraction failed to modulate the LPP amplitude in low WM-load trials, the difference between down- and no-regulation conditions became significant when distraction was combined with high WM-load, suggesting the facilitatory influence of high WM-load on ER for distraction (experiment 2). Our findings show that the effect of WM-load on ER is strategy-dependent, and that WM capacity is an important situational moderator of ER efficacy in healthy young adults. 16 p.

Abstract: The Silicon Vertex Detector (SVD), with its four double-sided silicon strip sensor layers, is one of the two vertex sub-detectors of Belle II operating at SuperKEKB collider (KEK, Japan). Since 2019 and the start of the data taking, the SVD has demonstrated a reliable and highly efficient operation, even running in an environment with harsh beam backgrounds that are induced by the world's highest instantaneous luminosity. In order to provide the best quality track reconstruction with an efficient pattern recognition and track fit, and to correctly propagate the uncertainty on the hit's position to the track parameters, it is crucial to precisely estimate the resolution of the cluster position measurement. Several methods for estimating the position resolution directly from the data will be discussed., Comment: 4 pages, The 30th International Workshop on Vertex Detectors

Abstract: Using data samples of 89.5 and 711fb$^{-1}$ recorded at energies of $\sqrt{s}$=10.52 and 10.58 GeV, respectively, with the Belle detector at the KEKB e$^{+}$e$^{-}$ collider, we report measurements of branching fractions of semileptonic decays Ξ$_{c}$$^{0}$ → Ξ$^{-}$l$^{+}$ν$_{l}$(l=e or μ) and the CP-asymmetry parameter of Ξ$_{c}$$^{0}$ → Ξ$^{-}$π$^{+}$ decay. The branching fractions are measured to be B(Ξ$_{c}$$^{0}$ → Ξ$^{-}$e$^{+}$ν$_{e}$)= 1.31±0.04±0.07±0.38)% and B(Ξ$_{c}$$^{0}$ → Ξ$^{-}$μ$^{+}$ν$_{μ}$ = (1.27±0.06±0.10±0.37)% , and the decay parameter α$_{Ξπ}$ is measured to be 0.63±0.03±0.01 with much improved precision compared with the current world average. The corresponding ratio B(Ξ$_{c}$$^{0}$ → Ξ$^{-}$e$^{+}$ν$_{e}$) /B(Ξ$_{c}$$^{0}$ → Ξ$^{-}$μ$^{+}$ν$_{μ}$) is 1.03±0.05±0.07, which is consistent with the expectation of lepton flavor universality. The first measured asymmetry parameter A$_{CP}$=(α$_{Ξ^{-}π^{+}}$+α$_{Ξ^{+}π^{-}}$)/(α$_{Ξ^{-}π^{+}}$+α$_{Ξ^{+}π^{-}}$) = 0.024±0.052±0.014 is found to be consistent with zero. The first and the second uncertainties above are statistical and systematic, respectively, while the third ones arise due to the uncertainty of the Ξ$_{c}$$^{0}$ → Ξ$^{-}$π$^{+}$ branching fraction.

Abstract: Item does not contain fulltext Using EEG recordings of patients with endometriosis-related chronic pelvic pain, we have examined the effective connectivity within the cortical pain-related network during rest and during pain-related imagery. During rest, an altered connectivity was hypothesized between cortical somatosensory pain areas and regions involved in emotional and cognitive modulation of pain. During pain-related imagery, alterations in prefrontal-temporal connectivity were expected. The effective connectivity was estimated using the Directed Transfer Function method. Differences between endometriosis patients and controls were found in the beta band (14-25Hz). During rest, endometriosis was associated with an increased connectivity from the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex to the left somatosensory cortex and also from the left somatosensory cortex to the orbitofrontal cortex and the right temporal cortex. These results might be related to sustained activation of the somatosensory pain system caused by the ongoing pain. During pain-related imagery, endometriosis patients showed an increased connectivity from the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex to the right temporal cortex. This finding might point to impaired emotional regulation when processing pain-related stimuli, or it might be related to altered memorization of pain experiences. Results of this study open up new directions in chronic pain research aimed at exploring the beta band connectivity alterations. Perspective This study examined the pain system's dynamics in endometriosis patients with chronic pelvic pain during resting-state and pain-related mental imagery. The results could contribute to the development of new therapies using guided mental imagery. 13 p.

Abstract: International audience; Belle II is the next generation B Factory experiment operating at the SuperKEKB accelerator complex at KEK in Tsukuba, Japan. It is expected to collect 50 ab−1 of data, with a target instantaneous luminosity of 6.5 × 1035 cm−2s−1, which is about 30 times larger than its predecessor, Belle. In view of the ever increasing Belle II data sample, accurate simulation of the detector is growing in importance. This poses a challenging task of compromising between the realistic modeling of the response of individual detector components and reasonable performance in terms of CPU time of the simulation. In this paper we describe the simulation of the silicon vertex detector, its performance against collision data and optimization.

Abstract: Using data samples of 89.5 and 711 fb^{-1} recorded at energies of sqrt[s]=10.52 and 10.58 GeV, respectively, with the Belle detector at the KEKB e^{+}e^{-} collider, we report measurements of branching fractions of semileptonic decays Ξ_{c}^{0}→Ξ^{-}ℓ^{+}ν_{ℓ} (ℓ=e or μ) and the CP-asymmetry parameter of Ξ_{c}^{0}→Ξ^{-}π^{+} decay. The branching fractions are measured to be B(Ξ_{c}^{0}→Ξ^{-}e^{+}ν_{e})=(1.31±0.04±0.07±0.38)% and B(Ξ_{c}^{0}→Ξ^{-}μ^{+}ν_{μ})=(1.27±0.06±0.10±0.37)%, and the decay parameter α_{Ξπ} is measured to be 0.63±0.03±0.01 with much improved precision compared with the current world average. The corresponding ratio B(Ξ_{c}^{0}→Ξ^{-}e^{+}ν_{e})/B(Ξ_{c}^{0}→Ξ^{-}μ^{+}ν_{μ}) is 1.03±0.05±0.07, which is consistent with the expectation of lepton flavor universality. The first measured asymmetry parameter A_{CP}=(α_{Ξ^{-}π^{+}}+α_{Ξ[over ¯]^{+}π^{-}})/(α_{Ξ^{-}π^{+}}-α_{Ξ[over ¯]^{+}π^{-}})=0.024±0.052±0.014 is found to be consistent with zero. The first and the second uncertainties above are statistical and systematic, respectively, while the third ones arise due to the uncertainty of the Ξ_{c}^{0}→Ξ^{-}π^{+} branching fraction.

Abstract: International audience; We report a particle identification (PID) tool developed using energy-loss information in the silicon-strip vertex detector (SVD) of Belle II for charged pions, kaons, and protons using $D^{* + } \to D^{0}[ \to K^{ - }\pi ^{ + }]\pi ^{ + }$ and $\Lambda \to p\pi ^{ - }$ decay samples. The study is based on e^+e^− collision data recorded at the $\Upsilon (4S)$ resonance by Belle II and the results are compared with that of a Monte Carlo sample. The introduction of additional information from the SVD is found to improve the overall PID performance in the low-momentum region.

Abstract: International audience; For stable operation of the Belle II Silicon Vertex Detector in the future high-luminosity operation of SuperKEKB, we plan to reduce readout data-samples per trigger and to apply hit-selection using hit-time. To realize this plan, we developed novel hit-time estimation methods, one of which achieves the resolution of 2.28 ± 0.04 ns evaluated in the current data acquisition mode. A study using Monte Carlo simulation also confirms that the hit-selection based on this hit-time improves track reconstruction performance.

Abstract: International audience; In spring 2019 the Belle II experiment at the high-luminosity SuperKEKB e^+e^− collider (KEK, Japan) has resumed operation after the installation of the new vertex detector. In the first period of operation SuperKEKB has already reached the record luminosity of 2.4 × 10^34 cm^−2 s^−1 which will be increased by about a factor 30 in the coming years. Two inner layers of DEPFET-based pixels and four layers of double-sided silicon strip detectors (Silicon Vertex Detector, SVD) make up this new vertex detector, designed to meet the stringent physics requirements as well as to cope with the high beam background conditions. Since the beginning of data taking, the SVD has been functioning with a very reliable and stable operation and excellent detector performance. The first evidence of radiation effects in the SVD have been observed, which are at the expected level and not affecting performance. This paper will review the performance achieved by the SVD and the lessons learned in the first year of operation that continued even during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract: International audience; In spring 2019 the fully equipped Belle II experiment started data taking at the energy of the Y(4S) resonance. The new vertex detector (VXD) consists of two inner layers of DEPFET pixels (PXD) and four outer layers of double-sided silicon strip detectors (SVD). It plays a crucial role in recording high-quality data in the new high-luminosity environment of the SuperKEKB collider, characterized by severe beam backgrounds. The SVD was operated reliably during the 2019 physics run, showing high stability of the noise levels and calibration parameters. The SVD performance, measured with first data, showed excellent hit and tracking efficiencies, high signal-to-noise ratio, and cluster energy distribution in fair agreement with the expectations. Detailed studies of the good spatial resolution achieved will be shown. The excellent hit-time resolution has also been measured, which will be exploited for background rejection in the coming years of running at higher luminosity.

Abstract: International audience; The SuperKEKB electron-positron collider at the KEK laboratory in Japan aims to achieve a maximum luminosity 50$\times$ higher than its predecessors KEKB and PEPII, positioning the Belle II experiment at the forefront of searches for non-standard-model physics in the next decade. High collision intensity implies high beam-induced radiation, which can damage essential Belle II sub-detectors and SuperKEKB components. Twenty-eight diamond sensors, read-out by purpose-built electronics, are installed in the interaction region to measure radiation and prevent damage. This talk introduces the system features and discusses its performance in early Belle II data taking.

Abstract: We report the result for a search for the leptonic decay of B$^{+}$ → μ$^{+}$ν$_{μ}$ using the full Belle dataset of 711 fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity at the ϒ(4S) resonance. In the Standard Model leptonic B-meson decays are helicity and Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa suppressed. To maximize sensitivity an inclusive tagging approach is used to reconstruct the second B meson produced in the collision. The directional information from this second B meson is used to boost the observed μ into the signal B-meson rest frame, in which the μ has a monochromatic momentum spectrum. Though its momentum is smeared by the experimental resolution, this technique improves the analysis sensitivity considerably. Analyzing the μ momentum spectrum in this frame we find B(B$^{+}$ → μ$^{+}$ν$_{μ}$) = 5.3 ± 2.0 ± 0.9) × 10$^{-7}$ with a one-sided significance of 2.8 standard deviations over the background-only hypothesis. This translates to a frequentist upper limit of B(B$^{+}$ → μ$^{+}$ν$_{μ}$) < 8.6 × 10$^{-7}$ at 90% confidence level. The experimental spectrum is then used to search for a massive sterile neutrino, B$^{+}$ → μ$^{+}$N, but no evidence is observed for a sterile neutrino with a mass in a range of 0–1.5 GeV. The determined B$^{+}$ → μ$^{+}$ν$_{μ}$ branching fraction limit is further used to constrain the mass and coupling space of the type II and type III two-Higgs-doublet models.

Abstract: The Belle II experiment aims to accumulate 50 ab−1 of e + e − collision data at the SuperKEKB asymmetric energy collider (Tsukuba, Japan). The first physics data using all Belle II detectors were taken in spring 2019. In the vast physics program of the Belle II experiment, the vertex detector plays a crucial role for the determination of the B -meson decay vertices. It consists of two inner layers of pixelated silicon detectors and four outer layers of double-sided silicon strip detectors (SVD). To achieve a design luminosity of 8 × 1 0 35 cm − 2 s − 1 , 40 times higher than the recorded luminosity of its predecessor, the SuperKEKB collider squeezes the beams to a vertical size of 50 nm (“nano-beam scheme”) and doubles the beam currents. Therefore, the detectors are required to tolerate intense beam induced background due to the very high luminosity. During the 2019 spring run we measured the occupancy rate in the SVD to estimate the level of the beam induced background. With the low initial luminosity, the observed beam induced background mostly originated from Touschek processes and beam-gas scattering within individual beams. Since these different background contributions depend differently on accelerator conditions, such as the beam current, beam size and pressure, they can be disentangled. We estimate the background rate of each contribution and compare them with simulated ones. The results enable us to predict the background levels at increased beam currents and luminosity in the coming years. They also hint at background mitigation measures for running at higher luminosity. In this proceeding we present the results of our study of the beam induced background in the SVD and the prospects for future operation.

Abstract: We present the first measurement of the Michel parameters η ‾ and ξκ in the radiative leptonic decay of the τ lepton using 703 fb-1 of data collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB e + e − collider. The Michel parameters are measured by an unbinned maximum likelihood fit to the kinematic information of e + e − → τ + τ − → ( π + π 0 ν ‾ ) ( l − ν ν ‾ γ ) ( l = e or μ ) . The preliminary values of the measured Michel parameters are η ‾ = − 2.0 ± 1.5 ± 0.8 and ξ κ = 0.6 ± 0.4 ± 0.2 , where the first error is statistical and the second is systematic.

Abstract: The Belle II experiment features a substantial upgrade of the Belle detector and will operate at the SuperKEKB energy-asymmetric e+e− collider at KEK in Tsukuba, Japan. The accelerator completed its first phase of commissioning in 2016, and the Belle II detector saw its first electron-positron collisions in April 2018. Belle II features a newly designed silicon vertex detector based on double-sided strip layers and DEPFET pixel layers. A subset of the vertex detector was operated in 2018 to determine background conditions (Phase 2 operation). The collaboration completed full detector installation in January 2019, and the experiment started full data taking. This paper will report on the final arrangement of the silicon vertex detector part of Belle II with a focus on online monitoring of detector conditions and data quality, on the design and use of diagnostic and reference plots, and on integration with the software framework of Belle II. Data quality monitoring plots will be discussed with a focus on simulation and acquired cosmic and collision data.

Abstract: We present a new measurement of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element |Vcb| from B0→D*-l+νl decays, reconstructed with the full Belle data set of 711 fb−1 integrated luminosity. Two form factor parametrizations, originally conceived by the Caprini-Lellouch-Neubert (CLN) and the Boyd, Grinstein and Lebed (BGL) groups, are used to extract the product F(1)ηEW|Vcb| and the decay form factors, where F(1) is the normalization factor and ηEW is a small electroweak correction. In the CLN parametrization we find F(1)ηEW|Vcb|=(35.06±0.15±0.56)×10-3, ρ2=1.106±0.031±0.007, R1(1)=1.229±0.028±0.009, R2(1)=0.852±0.021±0.006. For the BGL parametrization we obtain F(1)ηEW|Vcb|=(34.93±0.23±0.59)×10-3, which is consistent with the world average when correcting for F(1)ηEW. The branching fraction of B0→D*-l+νl is measured to be B(B0→D*-l+νl)=(4.90±0.02±0.16)%. We also present a new test of lepton flavor universality violation in semileptonic B decays, B(B0→D*-e+ν)B(B0→D*-μ+ν)=1.01±0.01±0.03. The errors quoted correspond to the statistical and systematic uncertainties, respectively. This is the most precise measurement of F(1)ηEW|Vcb| and form factors to date and the first experimental study of the BGL form factor parametrization in an experimental measurement.

Abstract: We report a search for the charmless baryonic decay $B^0\to p\bar{p}\pi^0$ with a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 711~$\rm fb^{-1}$ containing $(772\pm 10)\times 10^6$ $B^0\bar{B}^0$ pairs. The data was collected by the Belle experiment running on the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance at the KEKB $e^+e^-$ collider. We measure a branching fraction $\mathcal{B}(B^0\to p\bar{p}\pi^0)= (5.0\pm1.8\pm0.6 )\times 10^{-7}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. The signal has a significance of 3.1 standard deviations and constitutes the first evidence for this decay mode. We also search for the intermediate two-body decays $B^{0}\to\Delta^+\bar{p}$ and $B^0\to\bar{\Delta}^-p$, and set an upper limit on the branching fraction: $\mathcal{B}(B^0\to \Delta^+\bar{p})+\mathcal{B}(B^0\to\bar{\Delta}^-p)

Abstract: Pain catastrophizing - defined as a tendency to exaggerate the threat value or seriousness of experienced pain ‑ has been shown to be a risk factor for pain chronification. However, the neural basis of pain catastrophizing remains unclear and requires thorough investigation. This study aimed to explore the relationship between pain catastrophizing and effective connectivity of the pain systems in healthy participants. EEG data were collected during an induced state of pain‑related negative, depressive, positive and neutral mental imagery conditions, and pain catastrophizing tendencies were measured by the Pain Catastrophizing Scale. The Directed Transfer Function, a method based on Granger causality principles, was used to assess the effective connectivity. Linear mixed effects analyses revealed a negative relationship between pain catastrophizing and beta information flow from the right temporal cortex to the frontal regions and a positive relationship between pain catastrophizing and increased beta information flow from the right somatosensory cortices to the right temporal cortices when thinking about pain. These patterns were not found in other imagery conditions. Taken together, this study suggests that individual differences in pain catastrophizing might be related to an altered frontotemporal regulatory loop and increased connectivity between pain and affective systems. Our study reveals connectivity patterns related to pain catastrophizing tendencies that are detectable even in pain‑free, healthy individuals.

Abstract: We report the first observation of the spontaneous polarization of Λ and Λ[over ¯] hyperons transverse to the production plane in e^{+}e^{-} annihilation, which is attributed to the effect arising from a polarizing fragmentation function. For inclusive Λ/Λ[over ¯] production, we also report results with subtracted feed-down contributions from Σ^{0} and charm. This measurement uses a dataset of 800.4 fb^{-1} collected by the Belle experiment at or near a center-of-mass energy of 10.58 GeV. We observe a significant polarization that rises with the fractional energy carried by the Λ/Λ[over ¯] hyperon.

It offered a platform where theorists and experimentalists could work together to elucidate the potential impacts of the Belle II program, which includes a wide scope of physics topics: B physics, charm, τ , quarkonium physics, electroweak precision measurements, and dark sector searches. It is composed of nine working groups (WGs), which 6/654 Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/ptep/article-abstract/2019/12/123C01/5685006 by Uniwersytet Slaski Biblioteka Glowna user on 20 February 2020 PTEP 2019, 123C01 E. Kou et al. are coordinated by teams of theory and experiment conveners: WG1, Semileptonic and leptonic B Decays; WG2, Radiative and Electroweak Penguins; WG3, φ1 and φ2 (Time-Dependent CP Violation) Measurements; WG4, φ3 Measurement; WG5, Charmless Hadronic B Decay; WG6, Charm; WG7, Quarkonium(-like); WG8, τ and Low-Multiplicity Processes; WG9, New Physics. We organized workshops twice a year from 2014 until 2016, which moved from KEK in Japan to Europe and the Americas, gathering experts in the respective fields for discussions with Belle II members. One of the goals for B2TiP was to propose so-called “golden and silver channels”: we asked each working group to choose, among numerous possible measurements, those that would have the highest potential impact and to focus on them for the writeup. Theorists scrutinized the role of those measurements in terms of understanding the theory behind them, and estimated the theoretical uncertainties now achievable as well as prospects for the future. For flavor physics, having tight control of hadronic uncertainties is one of the most crucial aspects in the field, and this is considered an important criterion in determining the golden or silver channels. Experimentalists, on the other hand, investigated the expected improvements with data from Belle II. For the channels where the errors are dominated by statistical uncertainties, or where systematic errors are reducible, the errors can decrease rapidly as more data becomes available. The impact of the upgraded performance from Belle II is a crucial element in reducing the uncertainties: we therefore include the latest available studies of the detector efficiency using Monte Carlo simulated events.We list the golden and silver channel table in the introductory chapter, as a guide for the chapters that follow. This book is not a collection of reports based on talks given at the workshops. The working group conveners endeavored to construct a coherent document that can be used by Belle II collaborators, and others in the field of flavor physics, as a reference. Two books of a similar type have been produced in the past: The BaBar Book [1] and The Physics of the B Factories [2]. In order to avoid too much repetition with respect to those references, we refer to them wherever possible for introductory material. We would like to thank the section editors and contributing authors for the many stimulating discussions and their tremendous efforts in bringing the book together." (Preface)

49. Post- and transhumanism in the context of selected artistic phenomena of technoculture

Author: Przemysław Zawadzki and Agnieszka K. Adamczyk
Subjects: Donna Haraway, Cognitive Neuroscience, General Arts and Humanities, Philosophy, transhumanizm, General Social Sciences, Posthuman, postczłowiek, posthumanizm, Stelarc, Humanism, posthumanism, Transhumanism, humanism, Orlan, posthuman, Technoculture, technoculture, humanizm, Posthumanism, Theology, Natasha Vita-More, technokultura, transhumanism
Abstract: Kreacje wielu współczesnych artystów stanowią znak nadejścia technokultury. Choć manifestacje artystyczne technokultury mogą jawić się jako prowokacja, skłaniają one jednak do zadania fundamentalnych pytań o charakterze ontologicznym, na przykład o to, czy człowiek posiada niezmienną naturę ; jakie były i są jego relacje z Innym, a jakie być powinny ; do jakiego stopnia ciało i umysł mogą ulec zmianie, by człowiek pozostał "człowiekiem" ; jaka jest przyszłość naszego gatunku. By właściwie zrozumieć aktywność artystów technokultury, konieczne wydaje się gruntowne zrozumienie filozofii post- i transhumanizmu, ponieważ stanowiły one dla nich niewątpliwe źródło inspiracji. Z tego względu analiza wymienionych wyżej filozofii będzie stanowiła kluczową część artykułu. Wypracowane w jej wyniku narzędzia posłużą wskazaniu, w jakich aspektach technokultura jest manifestacją idei post- i transhumanistycznych. Na "laboratorium", w którym dokona się owa analiza, złoży się przede wszystkim twórczość Stelarca i Orlan - jednych z najczęściej komentowanych artystów sztuki technokultury. Creations of many contemporary artists indicate the emergence of technoculture. Although artistic manifestations of technoculture may appear to be a provocation, they encourage fundamental ontological questions, such as whether a person has unchanging nature ; what was and is our relationship to the Other, and what it should be ; to what extent can body and mind be altered before they stop being "human" ; what is the future of our species. To properly understand the works of technoculture artists, it appears necessary to have a thorough grasp post- and transhumanism as their key sources of inspiration. As a result, the developed tools will be employed to indicate which aspects of technoculture are a manifestation of post- and transhumanist ideas. This analysis is based primarily on the works of Stelarc and Orlan - two widely commented artists of technoculture.

Abstract: With the full data sample of $772\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{6}\text{ }\text{ }B\overline{B}$ pairs recorded by the Belle detector at the KEKB electron-positron collider, the decay $\overline{B}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{D}^{*}{\ensuremath{\tau}}^{\ensuremath{-}}{\overline{\ensuremath{\nu}}}_{\ensuremath{\tau}}$ is studied with the hadronic $\ensuremath{\tau}$ decays ${\ensuremath{\tau}}^{\ensuremath{-}}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}{\ensuremath{\nu}}_{\ensuremath{\tau}}$ and ${\ensuremath{\tau}}^{\ensuremath{-}}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\rho}}^{\ensuremath{-}}{\ensuremath{\nu}}_{\ensuremath{\tau}}$. The $\ensuremath{\tau}$ polarization ${P}_{\ensuremath{\tau}}({D}^{*})$ in two-body hadronic $\ensuremath{\tau}$ decays is measured, as well as the ratio of the branching fractions $R({D}^{*})=\mathcal{B}(\overline{B}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{D}^{*}{\ensuremath{\tau}}^{\ensuremath{-}}{\overline{\ensuremath{\nu}}}_{\ensuremath{\tau}})/\mathcal{B}(\overline{B}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{D}^{*}{\ensuremath{\ell}}^{\ensuremath{-}}{\overline{\ensuremath{\nu}}}_{\ensuremath{\ell}})$, where ${\ensuremath{\ell}}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ denotes an electron or a muon. Our results, ${P}_{\ensuremath{\tau}}({D}^{*})=\ensuremath{-}0.38\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.51{(\text{stat})}_{\ensuremath{-}0.16}^{+0.21}(\text{syst})$ and $R({D}^{*})=0.270\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.035{(\text{stat})}_{\ensuremath{-}0.025}^{+0.028}(\text{syst})$, are consistent with the theoretical predictions of the standard model. The polarization values of ${P}_{\ensuremath{\tau}}({D}^{*})g+0.5$ are excluded at the 90% confidence level.
