For all the decay, black residents still say Randolph is a nice place to live.
In order to "read" such a signature, a detector has to capture all the decay products that come flying out after a collision and measure their properties.
On the other side of the Daugava (a tram ride away) at Kalnciema kvartals, local entrepreneur brothers have bought and restored all the decaying wooden buildings on a square surrounding a small orchard.
When the city was at its lowest ebb, threatened by bankruptcy and violent crime, the maps and the signage he designed for the decrepit network were an optimistic statement in the midst of all the decay, a glimpse of better times to come.
For this boson, at a mass of ~125 GeV, almost all the decay modes are detectable, and hence comprehensive tests can be made.
From 60 to 300 K, all the decay lifetimes decrease with increasing the temperature, indicating the domination of non-radiative recombination in this range.
The measured value of the observed/expected ratio, for the combined data from all the decay modes, was found to be 1.4 ± 0.3 and 0.87 ± 0.23 for the ATLAS and CMS experiments, respectively.
Furthermore, the number of observed events is roughly equal to the number of events expected from the production of a SM Higgs boson for all the decay modes analyzed, within the errors, in both experiments.
All the decay curves demonstrate double-exponential feature (Table 1), so the decay times can be determined using a curve fitting technique based on the following equation: I = A 1 exp − t τ 1 + A 2 exp − t τ 2 (2).
All the decay curves could be well fitted by a single exponential function I (t) = I 0 exp.(−t/τ), where I 0 is the initial emission intensity at t = 0 and τ is the lifetime of the monitored level.
