"The Empire Makers" by Hume Nesbit
For each galaxy, this information is combined (in a Bayesian manner) with the likelihood P(C | z, T ) of observing the galaxy colours C for each redshift and SED pair, yielding the ﬁnal P(z, T | C, m0 ).
PHAT: PHoto-z Accuracy Testing
Calculations based on the use of leading-order pQCD diagrams for the production of cc pairs in colour singlet seriously underestimate the J/ψ cross-section at Tevatron.
Hard Probes 2010: Experimental Summary
In each pair of lines for the same r0 (of the same colour) the best performance (lower WFE) occurs when L0 is smallest, unless the DM stroke is increased, which is expensive. The X axis of the graph runs backwards and corresponds to the maximum stroke available from a DM.
Using Site Testing Data for Adaptive Optics Simulations
One notices in Figs. 10a - 10d that γ ﬂux for any particular value of the angle θ are given as a pair of plots designated by the speciﬁc colour code (red, blue or green), assumed for the results corresponding to that particular θ.
Gamma Ray and Neutrino Flux from Annihilation of Neutralino Dark Matter at Galactic Halo Region in mAMSB Model
However, note that the colours come in a particular order and this matters when deﬁning concepts like “ﬁner”. A pair (G, π), where π is a colouring of G, is called a coloured graph.
Practical graph isomorphism, II
In the default version of HERWIG the quark–antiquark pairs which form the colour singlet clusters are taken to be nearest neighbour pairs, in a sense deﬁned by the shower.
QCD Event Generators
Therefore contributions to the production of 1−− mesons are important where the heavy-quark pair is produced at short distances in a colour-octet state.
Testing factorization of charmonium production
Although gluon fragmentation into colour-octet quark pairs appears as the most plausible explanation of the large direct ψ production cross section observed at the Tevatron, NRQCD factorization is still not deﬁnitely established on a quantitative level.
Heavy-Flavour Production at HERA
The exchange is generally modelled as a gluon pair (i.e. a colour singlet system), with M ∝ |x · G(K 2 , x)|2 , the square of the gluon density in the proton.
Hard Diffraction in Vector Meson Production at HERA
The detailed investigation of the difference in variability and physical properties between two components of a stellar pair is particularly interesting when both companions are located in the same area of the colour-magnitude diagram: in this case both stars are situated in the δ Scuti instability strip.
