Pathogenic bacterial invasion leads to severe inflammation that hinders wound healing, and it has become a major medical threat worldwide. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has emerged as a promising strategy for treating microbial infection; however, developing a dressing with PDT effect and excellent biological functions poses a formidable challenge. Herein, a novel cationic pyrimidine-modified conjugated microporou...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2018-09-17; The observation of the standard model (SM) Higgs boson decay to a pair of bottom quarks is presented. The main contribution to this result is from processes in which Higgs bosons are produced in association with a W or Z boson (VH), and are searched for in final states including 0, 1, or 2 charged lepto...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2005-03-18; We present measurements of the Λ b 0 lifetime in the exclusive decay channel Λ b 0 → J/ψΛ 0with J/ψ → μ +μ - and Λ 0 → pπ -, the B 0 lifetime in the decay B 0 → J/ψ/K s 0 with J/ ψ → μ + μ - and K s 0 → π + π -, and the ratio of these lifetimes. The analysis is based on approximately 250 pb -1 of data r...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2005-04-22; We search for anomalous production of heavy-flavor quark jets in association with W bosons at the Fermilab Tevatron pp̄ Collider in final states in which the heavy-flavor quark content is enhanced by requiring at least one tagged jet in an event. Jets are tagged using one algorithm based on semileptonic...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2005-03-11; We present a search for Wbb̄ production in pp̄ collisions at √s = 1.96 TeV in events containing one electron, an imbalance in transverse momentum, and two b-tagged jets. Using 174 pb-1 of integrated luminosity accumulated by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron collider, and the standard-model des...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2005-04-29; Using the data collected with the DO detector at √ s = 1-96 TeV, for integrated luminosities of about 180 pb-1, we have measured the ratio of inclusive cross sections for pp̄ → Z + b jet to pp̄ → Z + jet production. The inclusive Z + b-jet reaction is an important background to searches for the Higgs bo...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2005-04-22; We present a measurement of the W boson pair-production cross section in pp̄ collisions at a center-of-mass energy of √s = 1.96 TeV. The data, collected with the Run II D0 detector at Fermilab, correspond to an integrated luminosity of 224-252 pb-1 depending on the final state (ee, eμ, or μμ). We observ...
