Quarkonium production and polarization in pp collisions with the CMS detector
The studies of heavy quarkonium inclusive production and polarization at LHC
are becoming crucial to solve the puzzle of hadron formation. The results by
CMS and the other LHC experiments are compactly presented for the five S-wave
states J/Psi, Psi(2S) and Y(nS) (n=1,2,3) and briefly discussed especially in
comparison to the theoretical predictions provided by Non Relativistic QCD.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures; Proceedinsg of the Second Annual LHCP, New York,

Persistence of some additive functionals of Sinai's walk
We are interested in Sinai's walk . We prove that
the annealed probability that is strictly positive for
all is equal to , for a
large class of functions , and in particular for . The persistence
exponent first appears in a non-rigorous paper of Le
Doussal, Monthus and Fischer, with motivations coming from physics. The proof
relies on techniques of localization for Sinai's walk and uses results of
Cheliotis about the sign changes of the bottom of valleys of a two-sided
Brownian motion.Comment: 30 pages, 2 figure
Improving Awareness of Colon Cancer Screening in the Homeless Population of Burlington, Vermont
Homeless populations are significantly less likely to access preventative cancer screening, yet this is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in this population. In the general population, colorectal cancer affects 1 in 20 people and is the number 2 cancer killer. Rates of colorectal cancer screening are particularly low in homeless populations. A poster was developed and posted in the waiting room of Safe Harbor clinic, a homeless health care program center, in order to increase education and awareness about colon cancer screening and colonoscopy.https://scholarworks.uvm.edu/fmclerk/1449/thumbnail.jp
