Modernity, representation, and personality in Antonio Flores's Ayer, hoy, y mañana (1863-64)
This article explores a highly important but little known text of 19c Spain, Ayer, Hoy, y Mañana by Antonio Flores. The text explores the contradictory and tense relationship between modernity and personality. It suggests that the primacy of representation within modernity undermines and contradicts modernity's concern with individual personality. The article analyses Flores' vast work within the context of the political thought of the time, showing how Flores engages with but seeks to undermine leftist thought
Mechanical stress confers nuclear and functional changes in derived leukemia cells from persistent confined migration
20 p.-8 fig.Nuclear deformability plays a critical role in cell migration. During this process, the remodeling of internal components of the nucleus has a direct impact on DNA damage and cell behavior; however, how persistent migration promotes nuclear changes leading to phenotypical and functional consequences remains poorly understood. Here, we described that the persistent migration through physical barriers was sufficient to promote permanent modifications in migratory-altered cells. We found that derived cells from confined migration showed changes in lamin B1 localization, cell morphology and transcription. Further analysis confirmed that migratory-altered cells showed functional differences in DNA repair, cell response to chemotherapy and cell migration in vivo homing experiments. Experimental modulation of actin polymerization affected the redistribution of lamin B1, and the basal levels of DNA damage in migratory-altered cells. Finally, since major nuclear changes were present in migratory-altered cells, we applied a multidisciplinary biochemical and biophysical approach to identify that confined conditions promoted a different biomechanical response of the nucleus in migratory-altered cells. Our observations suggest that mechanical compression during persistent cell migration has a role in stable nuclear and genomic alterations that might handle the genetic instability and cellular heterogeneity in aging diseases and cancer.Open Access funding provided thanks to the CRUE-CSIC agreement with Springer Nature.

Search for resonances decaying to three W bosons in the hadronic final state in proton-proton collisions at s =13 TeV
A search for Kaluza-Klein excited vector boson resonances, WKK, decaying in cascade to three W bosons via a scalar radion R, WKK?WR?WWW, in a final state containing two or three massive jets is presented. The search is performed with ?s=13??TeV proton-proton collision data collected by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC during 2016?2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138??fb?1. Two final states are simultaneously probed, one where the two W bosons produced by the R decay are reconstructed as separate, large-radius, massive jets, and one where they are merged into a single large-radius jet. The observed data are in agreement with the standard model expectations. Limits are set on the product of the WKK resonance cross section and branching fraction to three W bosons in an extended warped extra-dimensional model and are the first of their kind at the LHC.We congratulate our colleagues in the CERN accelerator departments for the excellent performance of the LHC and thank the technical and administrative staffs at CERN and at other CMS institutes for their contributions to the success of the CMS effort.

Measurement of the inclusive and differential tt¯ γ cross sections in the dilepton channel and effective field theory interpretation in proton-proton collisions at √ s = 13 TeV
The production cross section of a top quark pair in association with a photon is measured in proton-proton collisions in the decay channel with two oppositely charged leptons (e±μ∓, e+e−, or μ+μ−). The measurement is performed using 138 fb−1 of proton-proton collision data recorded by the CMS experiment at s√ = 13 TeV during the 2016–2018 data-taking period of the CERN LHC. A fiducial phase space is defined such that photons radiated by initial-state particles, top quarks, or any of their decay products are included. An inclusive cross section of 175.2 ± 2.5(stat) ± 6.3(syst) fb is measured in a signal region with at least one jet coming from the hadronization of a bottom quark and exactly one photon with transverse momentum above 20 GeV. Differential cross sections are measured as functions of several kinematic observables of the photon, leptons, and jets, and compared to standard model predictions. The measurements are also interpreted in the standard model effective field theory framework, and limits are found on the relevant Wilson coefficients from these results alone and in combination with a previous CMS measurement of the tt¯γ production process using the lepton+jets final state.We congratulate our colleagues in the CERN accelerator departments for the excellent performance of
the LHC and thank the technical and administrative staffs at CERN and at other CMS institutes for

Search for invisible decays of the Higgs boson produced via vector boson fusion in proton-proton collisions at s =13 TeV
A search for invisible decays of the Higgs boson produced via vector boson fusion (VBF) has been performed with 101??fb?1 of proton-proton collisions delivered by the LHC at ?s=13??TeV and collected by the CMS detector in 2017 and 2018. The sensitivity to the VBF production mechanism is enhanced by constructing two analysis categories, one based on missing transverse momentum and a second based on the properties of jets. In addition to control regions with Z and W boson candidate events, a highly populated control region, based on the production of a photon in association with jets, is used to constrain the dominant irreducible background from the invisible decay of a Z boson produced in association with jets. The results of this search are combined with all previous measurements in the VBF topology, based on data collected in 2012 (at
?s=8??TeV), 2015, and 2016, corresponding to integrated luminosities of 19.7, 2.3, and 36.3??fb?1, respectively. The observed (expected) upper limit on the invisible branching fraction of the Higgs boson is found to be 0.18 (0.10) at the 95% confidence level, assuming the standard model production cross section. The results are also interpreted in the context of Higgs-portal models.We congratulate our colleagues in the CERN accelerator departments for the excellent performance of the LHC and thank the technical and administrative staffs at CERN and at other CMS institutes for their contributions to the success of the CMS effort.

Search for long-lived particles decaying in the CMS end cap muon detectors in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV
ABSTRACT: A search for long-lived particles (LLPs) produced in decays of standard model (SM) Higgs bosons is presented. The data sample consists of 137 fb-¹ of proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV, recorded at the LHC in 2016–2018. A novel technique is employed to reconstruct decays of LLPs in the end cap muon detectors. The search is sensitive to a broad range of LLP decay modes and to masses as low as a few GeV. No excess of events above the SM background is observed. The most stringent limits to date on the branching fraction of the Higgs boson to LLPs subsequently decaying to quarks and τ+τ− are found for proper decay lengths greater than 6, 20, and 40 m, for LLP masses of 7, 15, and 40 GeV, respectively.We congratulate our colleagues in the CERN accelerator departments for the excellent performance of the LHC and thank the technical and administrative staffs at CERN and at other CMS institutes for their contributions to the success of the CMS effort. In addition, we gratefully acknowledge the computing centers and personnel of the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid and other centers for delivering so effectively the computing infrastructure essential to our analyses.

Search for higgsinos decaying to two Higgs bosons and missing transverse momentum in proton-proton collisions at √s = 13 TeV
Results are presented from a search for physics beyond the standard model in proton-proton collisions at s?
= 13 TeV in channels with two Higgs bosons, each decaying via the process H ? bb¯¯¯ , and large missing transverse momentum. The search uses a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 137 fb?1 collected by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC. The search is motivated by models of supersymmetry that predict the production of neutralinos, the neutral partners of the electroweak gauge and Higgs bosons. The observed event yields in the signal regions are found to be consistent with the standard model background expectations. The results are interpreted using simplified models of supersymmetry. For the electroweak production of nearly mass-degenerate higgsinos, each of whose decay chains yields a neutralino (??01)
that in turn decays to a massless goldstino and a Higgs boson, (??01) masses in the range 175 to 1025 GeV are excluded at 95% confidence level. For the strong production of gluino pairs decaying via a slightly lighter (??02) to H and a light (??01) , gluino masses below 2330 GeV are excluded.We congratulate our colleagues in the CERN accelerator departments for the excellent performance of the LHC and thank the technical and administrative staffs at CERN and at other CMS institutes for their contributions to the success of the CMS effort. In addition, we gratefully acknowledge the computing center s and personnel of the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid and other center s for delivering so effectively the computing infrastructure
essential to our analyses.
