Functional characterization of generalized Langevin equations
We present an exact functional formalism to deal with linear Langevin
equations with arbitrary memory kernels and driven by any noise structure
characterized through its characteristic functional. No others hypothesis are
assumed over the noise, neither the fluctuation dissipation theorem. We found
that the characteristic functional of the linear process can be expressed in
terms of noise's functional and the Green function of the deterministic
(memory-like) dissipative dynamics. This object allow us to get a procedure to
calculate all the Kolmogorov hierarchy of the non-Markov process. As examples
we have characterized through the 1-time probability a noise-induced interplay
between the dissipative dynamics and the structure of different noises.
Conditions that lead to non-Gaussian statistics and distributions with long
tails are analyzed. The introduction of arbitrary fluctuations in fractional
Langevin equations have also been pointed out

Persistence of Anderson localization in Schr\"odinger operators with decaying random potentials
We show persistence of both Anderson and dynamical localization in
Schr\"odinger operators with non-positive (attractive) random decaying
potential. We consider an Anderson-type Schr\"odinger operator with a
non-positive ergodic random potential, and multiply the random potential by a
decaying envelope function. If the envelope function decays slower than
at infinity, we prove that the operator has infinitely many
eigenvalues below zero. For envelopes decaying as at infinity,
we determine the number of bound states below a given energy ,
asymptotically as . To show that bound states located at
the bottom of the spectrum are related to the phenomenon of Anderson
localization in the corresponding ergodic model, we prove: (a) these states are
exponentially localized with a localization length that is uniform in the decay
exponent ; (b)~ dynamical localization holds uniformly in
Follow-Up After Hip and Knee Arthroplasty: a Review of the Literature and a Report on a Pilot Project at the Vreden National Medical Research Center of Traumatology and Orthopedics
Background. Today in our country, the follow-up of patients after arthroplasty is carried out in accordance with clinical guidelines, the wording of which is based on monographs from 2006, 2008, and 2014, in addition, clinical guidelines for follow-up do not take into account the results of treatment assessed by the patient himself.
The purpose of this study was to examine existing systems and develop a proprietary follow-up system for patients after hip and knee arthroplasty.
Results. A review of the literature revealed that follow-up of patients after arthroplasty is an unsolved problem, within which there is low coverage, reluctance or forgetfulness of the asymptomatic patient, the problem of accessibility of medical examinations, and an excessive financial burden on the health care system. Since 2022, fixed recommendations for follow-up after arthroplasty have been used in the clinical practice of our center in discharge epicrisis. Recommendations for the frequency of follow-up were formulated by experts based on a comprehensive review of the literature and their own experience. In the first three months, 221 hip and 235 knee evaluation questionnaires were collected through the proposed mechanism, with a progressive increase in the number of questionnaires based on weekly monitoring data.
Conclusion. Unfortunately, the outpatient clinic system is not always able to provide qualitative monitoring of patients after arthroplasty due to various reasons, therefore, in our opinion, the implementation of the mechanism of remote monitoring of patients will allow detecting various complications at the stage of early diagnosis, which will contribute to prompt solution of these problems. The remote monitoring system is also an important source of scientific data

Production of π0 and η mesons in Cu+Au collisions at sNN =200 GeV
Production of π0 and η mesons has been measured at midrapidity in Cu+Au collisions at sNN=200GeV. Measurements were performed in π0(η)→γγ decay channel in the 1(2)-20GeV/c transverse momentum range. A strong suppression is observed for π0 and η meson production at high transverse momentum in central Cu+Au collisions relative to the p+p results scaled by the number of nucleon-nucleon collisions. In central collisions the suppression is similar to Au+Au with comparable nuclear overlap. The η/π0 ratio measured as a function of transverse momentum is consistent with mT-scaling parametrization down to pT=2GeV/c, its asymptotic value is constant and consistent with Au+Au and p+p and does not show any significant dependence on collision centrality. Similar results were obtained in hadron-hadron, hadron-nucleus, and nucleus-nucleus collisions as well as in e+e- collisions in a range of collision energies sNN=3-1800 GeV. This suggests that the quark-gluon-plasma medium produced in Cu+Cu collisions either does not affect the jet fragmentation into light mesons or it affects the π0 and η the same way
Search for Top Squark Pair Production in the Dielectron Channel
This report describes the first search for top squark pair production in the
channel stop_1 stopbar_1 -> b bbar chargino_1 chargino_1 -> ee+jets+MEt using
74.9 +- 8.9 pb^-1 of data collected using the D0 detector. A 95% confidence
level upper limit on sigma*B is presented. The limit is above the theoretical
expectation for sigma*B for this process, but does show the sensitivity of the
current D0 data set to a particular topology for new physics.Comment: Five pages, including three figures, submitted to PRD Brief Report
Net Charge Fluctuations in Au + Au Interactions at sqrt(s_NN) = 130 GeV
Data from Au + Au interactions at sqrt(s_NN) = 130 GeV, obtained with the
PHENIX detector at RHIC, are used to investigate local net charge fluctuations
among particles produced near mid-rapidity. According to recent suggestions,
such fluctuations may carry information from the Quark Gluon Plasma. This
analysis shows that the fluctuations are dominated by a stochastic distribution
of particles, but are also sensitive to other effects, like global charge
conservation and resonance decays.Comment: 6 pages, RevTeX 3, 3 figures, 307 authors, submitted to Phys. Rev.

Flow Measurements via Two-particle Azimuthal Correlations in Au + Au Collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 130 GeV
Two particle azimuthal correlation functions are presented for charged
hadrons produced in Au + Au collisions at RHIC sqrt(s_NN) = 130 GeV. The
measurements permit determination of elliptic flow without event-by-event
estimation of the reaction plane. The extracted elliptic flow values v_2 show
significant sensitivity to both the collision centrality and the transverse
momenta of emitted hadrons, suggesting rapid thermalization and relatively
strong velocity fields. When scaled by the eccentricity of the collision zone,
epsilon, the scaled elliptic flow shows little or no dependence on centrality
for charged hadrons with relatively low p_T. A breakdown of this epsilon
scaling is observed for charged hadrons with p_T > 1.0 GeV/c for the most
central collisions.Comment: 6 pages, RevTeX 3, 4 figures, 307 authors, submitted to Phys. Rev.

Measurement of the Top Quark Pair Production Cross Section in pbar-p Collisions Using Multijet Final States
We have studied tbar-t production using multijet final states in pbar-p
collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 1.8 TeV, with an integrated luminosity
of 110.3 pb(-1). Each of the top quarks with these final states decays
exclusively to a bottom quark and a W boson, with the W bosons decaying into
quark-antiquark pairs. The analysis has been optimized using neural networks to
achieve the smallest expected fractional uncertainty on the tbar-t production
cross section, and yields a cross section of 7.1 +/- 2.8(stat.) +/- 1.5(syst.)
pb, assuming a top quark mass of 172.1 GeV/c^(2). Combining this result with
previous D0 measurements, where one or both of the W bosons decay leptonically,
gives a tbar t production cross section of 5.9 +/- 1.2(stat) +/- 1.1(syst) pb.Comment: 30 pages, 32 figures; no substative change in revisio
Event-by-event fluctuations in Mean and Mean in sqrt(s_NN) = 130 GeV Au+Au Collisions
Distributions of event-by-event fluctuations of the mean transverse momentum
and mean transverse energy near mid-rapidity have been measured in Au+Au
collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 130 GeV at RHIC. By comparing the distributions to
what is expected for statistically independent particle emission, the magnitude
of non-statistical fluctuations in mean transverse momentum is determined to be
consistent with zero. Also, no significant non-random fluctuations in mean
transverse energy are observed. By constructing a fluctuation model with two
event classes that preserve the mean and variance of the semi-inclusive p_T or
e_T spectra, we exclude a region of fluctuations in sqrt(s_NN) = 130 GeV Au+Au
collisions.Comment: 10 pages, RevTeX 3, 7 figures, 4 tables, 307 authors, submitted to
