Reports of Cases Adjudged in the Supreme Court of the Province of New Brunswick

Reports of Cases Adjudged in the Supreme Court of the Province of New Brunswick: Commencing in Hilary Term, 1835, written by George F. S. Berton in 1835 is a 217 page compilation of cases argued and determined in the Supreme Court of New Brunswick. It includes an index and the option to full-text search. Preface: At the date of the commencement of these Reports, I was in­duced by a desire to render service to my professional brethren and the public, to publish the notes, which I had taken only for my own use, of the cases in Hilary, 1835. They first appeared in the Royal Gazette, and were then issued in pamphlet form. I continued so to publish the cases determined during that year. In the Session of 1836, the Legislature, satisfied of the “ great importance of obtaining correct reports of the decisions of the Su­preme Court,” authorized the Lieutenant Governor to appoint a Reporter, secured to him the copyright of his work, and granted an annual sum as a remuneration for his services. Under this Act I had the honor to be appointed, and have, from the time of my appointment, carefully collected and reported all the decisions of the Court. Among the cases of 1835, there were several of very great and general importance, and as I was enabled, by the kindness of their Honors the Chief Justice and the other Judges, to have access to their notes and written judgments; I considered it only due to the liberality and kindness with which my efforts had been met, to re-publish the whole of the cases from the beginning of 1835 ; this has now been done, and although I have thereby incurred a heavy pecuniary expense, yet I shall be enabled to proceed with more satisfaction to myself and the public than I could by Continuing a work im­perfectly commenced. Much delay has occurred in the printing, but I am now induced to hope that the work will be proceeded with diligently until completed, and that hereafter the numbers will be issued within a reasonable time after every Term. It is proper that I should acknowledge the very great assistance which, during along illness, I have received from Mr. George Lee, as well in compiling the latter part of the cases now published, as in the general correction of the Press.

Multi-messenger observations of a binary neutron star merger

On 2017 August 17 a binary neutron star coalescence candidate (later designated GW170817) with merger time 12:41:04 UTC was observed through gravitational waves by the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo detectors. The Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor independently detected a gamma-ray burst (GRB 170817A) with a time delay of ~1.7 s with respect to the merger time. From the gravitational-wave signal, the source was initially localized to a sky region of 31 deg2 at a luminosity distance of 40+8-8 Mpc and with component masses consistent with neutron stars. The component masses were later measured to be in the range 0.86 to 2.26 Mo. An extensive observing campaign was launched across the electromagnetic spectrum leading to the discovery of a bright optical transient (SSS17a, now with the IAU identification of AT 2017gfo) in NGC 4993 (at ~40 Mpc) less than 11 hours after the merger by the One- Meter, Two Hemisphere (1M2H) team using the 1 m Swope Telescope. The optical transient was independently detected by multiple teams within an hour. Subsequent observations targeted the object and its environment. Early ultraviolet observations revealed a blue transient that faded within 48 hours. Optical and infrared observations showed a redward evolution over ~10 days. Following early non-detections, X-ray and radio emission were discovered at the transient’s position ~9 and ~16 days, respectively, after the merger. Both the X-ray and radio emission likely arise from a physical process that is distinct from the one that generates the UV/optical/near-infrared emission. No ultra-high-energy gamma-rays and no neutrino candidates consistent with the source were found in follow-up searches. These observations support the hypothesis that GW170817 was produced by the merger of two neutron stars in NGC4993 followed by a short gamma-ray burst (GRB 170817A) and a kilonova/macronova powered by the radioactive decay of r-process nuclei synthesized in the ejecta

Measurements of photo-nuclear jet production in Pb plus Pb collisions with ATLAS

Ultra-peripheral heavy ion collisions provide a unique opportunity to study the parton distributions in the colliding nuclei via the measurement of photo-nuclear jet production. An analysis of jet production in ultra-peripheral Pb+Pb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV performed using data collected with the ATLAS detector in 2015 is described. The data set corresponds to a total Pb+Pb integrated luminosity of 0.38 nb−1. The ultra-peripheral collisions are selected using a combination of forward neutron and rapidity gap requirements. The cross-sections, not unfolded for detector response, are compared to results from Pythia Monte Carlo simulations re-weighted to match a photon spectrum obtained from the STARlight model. Qualitative agreement between data and these simulations is observed over a broad kinematic range suggesting that using these collisions to measure nuclear parton distributions is experimentally realisable
