Évolution de la contribution française à l'upgrade de LHCb
Ce document décrit l'évolution de la contribution française à l'upgrade de LHCb. Il s'inscrit dans le prolongement de la Lettre d'Intention [1], du Framework TDR [2], du document soumis au Conseil scientifique de l'IN2P3 le 21 juin 2012 [3], et des Technical Design Reports soumis au LHCC en novembre 2013 [4, 5]. Ces derniers concernent le détecteur de vertex et les détecteurs utilisés dans l'identification des particules. La contribution française s'est cristallisée autour de quatre grands projets : l'électronique front-end des calorimètres et du trajectographe à fibres scintillantes, le système de déclenchement de premier niveau et la carte de lecture à 40MHz commune à l'ensemble des sous-systèmes. Dans ce document nous décrivons les contributions envisagées et les ressources nécessaires pour mener à bien ces projets
Design concepts for the Cherenkov Telescope Array CTA: an advanced facility for ground-based high-energy gamma-ray astronomy
Ground-based gamma-ray astronomy has had a major breakthrough with the impressive results obtained using systems of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes. Ground-based gamma-ray astronomy has a huge potential in astrophysics, particle physics and cosmology. CTA is an international initiative to build the next generation instrument, with a factor of 5-10 improvement in sensitivity in the 100 GeV-10 TeV range and the extension to energies well below 100 GeV and above 100 TeV. CTA will consist of two arrays (one in the north, one in the south) for full sky coverage and will be operated as open observatory. The design of CTA is based on currently available technology. This document reports on the status and presents the major design concepts of CTA
The LHCb upgrade I
The LHCb upgrade represents a major change of the experiment. The detectors have been almost completely renewed to allow running at an instantaneous luminosity five times larger than that of the previous running periods. Readout of all detectors into an all-software trigger is central to the new design, facilitating the reconstruction of events at the maximum LHC interaction rate, and their selection in real time. The experiment's tracking system has been completely upgraded with a new pixel vertex detector, a silicon tracker upstream of the dipole magnet and three scintillating fibre tracking stations downstream of the magnet. The whole photon detection system of the RICH detectors has been renewed and the readout electronics of the calorimeter and muon systems have been fully overhauled. The first stage of the all-software trigger is implemented on a GPU farm. The output of the trigger provides a combination of totally reconstructed physics objects, such as tracks and vertices, ready for final analysis, and of entire events which need further offline reprocessing. This scheme required a complete revision of the computing model and rewriting of the experiment's software

Spastic co-contraction is directly associated with altered cortical beta oscillations after stroke
International audienceObjective: Spastic co-contraction is a motor-disabling form of muscle overactivity occurring after a stroke, contributing to a limitation in active movement and a certain level of motor impairment. The cortical mechanisms underlying spastic co-contraction remain to be more fully elucidated, the present study aimed to investigate the role of the cortical beta oscillations in spastic co-contraction after a stroke.Method: We recruited fifteen post-stroke participants and nine healthy controls. The participants were asked to perform active elbow extensions. In the study, multimodal analysis was performed to combine the evaluation of three-dimensional elbow kinematics, the elbow muscles electromyographic activations, and the cortical oscillatory activity.Results: The movement-related beta desynchronization was significantly decreased in post-stroke participants compared to healthy participants. We found a significant correlation between the movement-related beta desynchronization and the elbow flexors activation during the active elbow extension in post-stroke participants. When compared to healthy participants, post-stroke participants exhibited significant alterations in the elbow kinematics and greater muscle activation levels.Conclusions: Cortical beta oscillation alterations may reflect an important neural mechanism underlying spastic co-contraction after a stroke.Significance: Measuring the cortical oscillatory activity could be useful to further characterize neuromuscular plasticity induced by recovery or therapeutic interventions
