Swiss CAT+, a Data-driven Infrastructure for Accelerated Catalysts Discovery and Optimization

The Catalysis Hub – Swiss CAT+ is a new infrastructure project funded by ETH-domain, co-headed by EPFL and ETHZ. It offers the scientific community a unique integrated technology platform combining automated and high-throughput experimentation with advanced computational data analysis to accelerate the discoveries in the field of sustainable catalytic technologies. Divided into two hubs of expertise, homogeneous catalysis at EPFL and heterogeneous catalysis at ETHZ, the platform is open to academic and private research groups. Following a multi-year investment plan, both hubs have acquired and developed several high-end robotic platforms devoted to the synthesis, characterization, and testing of large numbers of molecular and solid catalysts. The hardware is associated with a fully digitalized experimental workflow and a specific data management strategy to support closed-loop experimentation and advanced computational data analysis

Pouvoir local, régionalismes, décentralisation

En Amérique latine, depuis le début des années quatre-vingt, deux phénomènes majeurs, l'approfondissement de la crise financière-économique et l'évolution démocratique, ont renouvelé les termes et les enjeux d'un débat désormais généralisé sur les rapports entre pouvoirs centraux, pouvoirs régionaux et pouvoirs locaux. En France, dans la même période, mais dans un contexte politique différent, la discussion puis l'application des lois de décentralisation ont répondu à la volonté des sociétés locales de prendre une plus grande part dans la détermination de leur destin et de celui de leur territoire. Démocratisation et modernisation, modernisation et démocratisation sont ainsi devenues, tant en France (en Europe devrait-on dire) qu'en Amérique latine les mots-clés, les références incontournables pour toute réflexion sur les voies et moyens permettant d'affronter les mutations imposées par la compétition internationale

Measurement of the double-differential inclusive jet cross section in proton-proton collisions at s\sqrt{s} = 5.02 TeV

International audienceThe inclusive jet cross section is measured as a function of jet transverse momentum $p_\mathrm{T}$ and rapidity $y$. The measurement is performed using proton-proton collision data at $\sqrt{s}$ = 5.02 TeV, recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 27.4 pb$^{-1}$. The jets are reconstructed with the anti-$k_\mathrm{T}$ algorithm using a distance parameter of $R$ = 0.4, within the rapidity interval $\lvert y\rvert$$\lt$ 2, and across the kinematic range 0.06 $\lt$$p_\mathrm{T}$$\lt$ 1 TeV. The jet cross section is unfolded from detector to particle level using the determined jet response and resolution. The results are compared to predictions of perturbative quantum chromodynamics, calculated at both next-to-leading order and next-to-next-to-leading order. The predictions are corrected for nonperturbative effects, and presented for a variety of parton distribution functions and choices of the renormalization/factorization scales and the strong coupling $\alpha_\mathrm{S}$

Two-particle Bose-Einstein correlations and their Lévy parameters in PbPb collisions at sNN\sqrt{s_\mathrm{NN}} = 5.02 TeV

Two-particle Bose-Einstein momentum correlation functions are studied for charged-hadron pairs in lead-lead collisions at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of $\sqrt{s_\mathrm{NN}}$ = 5.02 TeV. The data sample, containing 4.27$\times10^{9}$ minimum bias events corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 0.607 nb$^{-1}$, was collected by the CMS experiment in 2018. The experimental results are discussed in terms of a L\'evy-type source distribution. The parameters of this distribution are extracted as functions of particle pair average transverse mass and collision centrality. These parameters include the L\'evy index or shape parameter ($\alpha$), the L\'evy scale parameter ($R$), and the correlation strength parameter ($\lambda$). The source shape, characterized by $\alpha$, is found to be neither Cauchy nor Gaussian, implying the need for a full L\'evy analysis. Similarly to what was previously found for systems characterized by Gaussian source radii, a hydrodynamical scaling is observed for the L\'evy $R$ parameter. The $\lambda$ parameter is studied in terms of the core-halo model.Comment: Submitted to Physical Review C.

Observation of triple J/ψ\psi meson production in proton-proton collisions at s\sqrt{s} = 13 TeV

The first observation of the simultaneous production of three J/$\psi$ mesons in proton-proton (pp) collisions is presented, based on a data sample collected by the CMS experiment at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 133 fb$^{-1}$. The pp $\to$ J/$\psi\,$J/$\psi\,$J/$\psi\,$X process is observed with a significance above five standard deviations in final states with three $\mu^+\mu^-$ pairs. The measured inclusive fiducial cross section of $\sigma$(pp $\to$ J/$\psi\,$J/$\psi\,$J/$\psi\,$X)= 272$^{+141}_{-104}$ (stat) $\pm$ 17 (syst) fb is compared to theoretical expectations for the production of three J/$\psi$ mesons in single- (SPS), double- (DPS), and triple- (TPS) parton scatterings. Assuming factorization of multiple hard-scattering probabilities in terms of SPS cross sections, the measured process is found to be dominated by DPS and TPS contributions, and an effective DPS cross section, related to the transverse distribution of partons in the proton, of $\sigma_\mathrm{eff,DPS}$ = 2.7$^{+1.4}_{-1.0}$ (exp) ${}^{+1.5}_{-1.0}$ (theo) mb is determined
