A Mediator Lost in the War on Cancer
An unexpected role for a Mediator subunit, MED12, in resistance to multiple anticancer agents is revealed by Huang et al. Loss of MED12 confers drug resistance by activating transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) signaling. Inhibition of the TGF-β pathway resensitizes cells to therapeutic drugs, suggesting a new combinatorial cancer treatment
The Algebraic Structure of the Color Calogero-Sutherland Models
We extend the study on the algebraic structure of the color
Calogero-Sutherland models to the case of color CS model and show
that the generators of the super-Yangian can be obtained from two
loop algebras. Also, a super algebra for the SUSY CS
model is constructed.Comment: LaTeX, 13 page
Constraints on anomalous quartic gauge couplings via production at the LHC
The vector boson scattering at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is sensitive
to anomalous quartic gauge couplings (aQGCs). In this paper, we investigate the
aQGC contribution to production at the LHC with
TeV in the context of an effective field theory (EFT). The unitarity bound is
applied as a cut on the energy scale of this production process, which is found
to have significant suppressive effects on the signals. To enhance the
statistical significance, we analyse the kinematic and polarization features of
the aQGC signals in detail. We find that the polarization effects induced by
the aQGCs are unique and can discriminate the signals from the SM backgrounds
well. With the proposed event selection strategy, we obtain the constraints on
the coefficients of dimension-8 operators with current luminosity. The results
indicate that the process is powerful for searching for
the and operators.Comment: 29 pages, 11 figures, 7 tables, to be published in Chinese Physics
