    A search for the rare decays Bs0→μ+μ- and B0→μ+μ- is performed at the LHCb experiment using data collected in pp collisions corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 4.4  fb-1. An excess of Bs0→μ+μ- decays is observed with a significance of 7.8 standard deviations, representing the first observation of this decay in a single experiment. The branching fraction is measured to be B(Bs0→μ+μ-)=(3.0±0.6-0.2+0.3)×10-9, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. The first measurement of the Bs0→μ+μ- effective lifetime, τ(Bs0→μ+μ-)=2.04±0.44±0.05  ps, is reported.

    Towards a Flexible Author Name Disambiguation Framework

    Get PDF
    summary:In this paper we propose a flexible, modular framework for author name disambiguation. Our solution consists of the core which orchestrates the disambiguation process, and replaceable modules performing concrete tasks. The approach is suitable for distributed computing, in particular it maps well to the MapReduce framework. We describe each component in detail and discuss possible alternatives. Finally, we propose procedures for calibration and evaluation of the described system
