Vector Meson Production in Coherent Hadronic Interactions: An update on predictions for RHIC and LHC
In this letter we update our predictions for the photoproduction of vector
mesons in coherent and collisions at RHIC and LHC energies using the
color dipole approach and the Color Glass Condensate (CGC) formalism. In
particular, we present our predictions for the first run of the LHC at half
energy and for the rapidity dependence of the ratio between the and
cross sections at RHIC energies.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure

Effects of self-employment on hospitalizations: Instrumental variables analysis of social security data
The importance of self-employment and small businesses raises questions about their health effects and public policy implications, which can only be addressed with suitable data. We explore the relationship between self-employment and health by drawing on comprehensive longitudinal administrative data to explore variation in individual work status and by applying novel instrumental variables. We focus on an objective outcome—hospital admissions—that is not subject to recall or other biases that may affect previous studies. Our main findings, based on a sample of about 6,500 individuals followed monthly from 2005 to 2011 and who switch between self-employment and wage work along that period, suggest that self-employment has a positive effect on health as it reduces the likelihood of hospital admission by at least half
The Higgs Legacy of the LHC Run I
Based on Run I data we present a comprehensive analysis of Higgs couplings.
For the first time this SFitter analysis includes independent tests of the
Higgs-gluon and top Yukawa couplings, Higgs decays to invisible particles, and
off-shell Higgs measurements. The observed Higgs boson is fully consistent with
the Standard Model, both in terms of coupling modifications and effective field
theory. Based only on Higgs total rates the results using both approaches are
essentially equivalent, with the exception of strong correlations in the
parameter space induced by effective operators. These correlations can be
controlled through additional experimental input, namely kinematic
distributions. Including kinematic distributions the typical Run I reach for
weakly interacting new physics now reaches 300 to 500 GeV.Comment: 29 pages, 15 figure
