Effect of Morphology Parameter Determination on Contact Behavior of Rock Joints under Compressive Loading by Feng Tian Tang, Zhi Cheng Tang

“…The closure behavior of rock joints is of critical importance to the study of hydromechanical behaviors and geophysical properties of jointed rock masses. Theoretical contact models, used to predict the relations of normal stress versus closure deformation, rely on morphology parameters of rock joint as the input parameters. …”

Effect of Atmospheric Pollutants on the Air Quality in Tunisia by Karim Bouchlaghem, Blaise Nsom

“…The decrease in particulate levels recorded at the end of each event is due to the injection of European air masses and rainfalls. Primary pollutants peaks were much higher in winter than in summer which can be explained on the basis of the lower ventilation and mixing.…”

Dimuon and ditau production in photon-photon collisions at next-to-leading order in QED by Hua-Sheng Shao, David d’Enterria

“…The NLO terms are found to modify the total fiducial cross sections by up to 5%, increasing the tails of the dilepton acoplanarity and transverse momentum distributions, and depleting by up to 15% the yields at high masses, with respect to the leading-order predictions including the very small virtuality of the colliding photons. …”

Collider imprint of vector-like leptons in light of anomalous magnetic moment and neutrino data by Parham Dehghani, Mariana Frank, Benjamin Fuks

“…Abstract We investigate the impact of incorporating vector-like leptons into the Standard Model, aiming to address longstanding puzzles related to the anomalous magnetic moments of the muon and electron while maintaining consistency with neutrino masses and mixings. We find that among the various representations of vector-like leptons permitted by the Standard Model gauge symmetry, only weak doublets and singlets offer satisfactory solutions, all associated with a significantly constrained parameter space. …”
