The Σ beam asymmetry in the photoproduction of neutral pions from quasi-free nucleons in a deuteron target was measured for the first time between 0.60 and 1.50GeV, with the GRAAL polarized and tagged photon beam. The asymmetry values from the quasi-free proton were found equal to the ones extracted from a pure proton target. The asymmetries from

Properties of the Higgs boson are measured in the H → ZZ → 4ℓ (ℓ = e, μ) decay channel. A data sample of proton-proton collisions at √{s}=13 TeV, collected with the CMS detector at the LHC and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb-1 is used. The signal strength modifier μ, defined as the ratio of the observed Higgs boson rate in the

Measurements of the associated production of a Z boson with at least one jet originating from a b quark in proton-proton collisions at √{s} = 8 {TeV} are presented. Differential cross sections are measured with data collected by the CMS experiment corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.8 {fb}^{-1}. Z bosons are reconstructed through their

Daily measurements of the solar aureole were made at the Vacuum Newton Telescope (/D=40 cm) at the Teide Observatory (Tenerife) for various airmasses. We use these measurements to understand how the aureole is produced and to extrapolate visible measurements to the infrared range (1.6 /μm). This information will be used to correct sunspot

The reliability of infrared (IR) and ultraviolet (UV) emissions to measure star formation rates (SFRs) in galaxies is investigated for a large sample of galaxies observed with the Spectral and Photometric Imaging Receiver (SPIRE) and the Photodetector Array Camera and Spectrometer (PACS) instruments on Herschel as part of the Herschel Multi-Tiered
