Studies of on-shell and off-shell Higgs boson production in the four-lepton final state are presented, using data from the CMS experiment at the LHC that correspond to an integrated luminosity of 80.2 fb−1 at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. Joint constraints are set on the Higgs boson total width and parameters that express its anomalous coupl

The performance of missing transverse momentum (p® miss T ) reconstruction algorithms for the CMS experiment is presented, using proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, collected at the CERN LHC in 2016. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1 . The results include measurements of the scale and

A search is presented for the production of a pair of Higgs bosons, where one decays into two photons and the other one into a bottom quark–antiquark pair. The analysis is performed using proton–proton collision data at √s = 13 TeV recorded in 2016 by the CMS detector at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1. The r

Event-by-event fluctuations in the elliptic-flow coefficient v2 are studied in PbPb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV using the CMS detector at the CERN LHC. Elliptic-flow probability distributions p(v2) for charged particles with transverse momentum 0.3 < pT < 3.0 GeV/c and pseudorapidity |η| < 1.0 are determined for different collision

Measurements are presented of the tripledifferential cross section for inclusive isolated-photon+jet events in pp collisions at √s = 8 TeV as a function of photon transverse momentum (pγ T), photon pseudorapidity (ηγ), and jet pseudorapidity (ηjet). The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb−1 that probe a broad range of the

It is an unavoidable fact that Higher Education and teachings must upgrade themselves from being local to international. Every era has its own sine qua: if any institution is not updating and renewing itself according to the requirements and needs of the era, it would lag behind of the time and would just repeat and consume the old knowledge rather

The second conference of the foundations of Islamic finance series: Islamic banking products, theory, practice and issues held at Kuala Lumpur from March 8 to 9, 2011, was as much a great opportunity as for academicians, industrialists, practitioners and students. This foundations began to organize conferences with the support of an Australian Rese

The study assesses the impact of the 2007 US sub-prime crisis on the Malaysian stock market by analysing both the benchmark and sectoral indices. Specifically, it empirically examines the integration of the Malaysian, US and Japanese stock markets at the sectoral level, such as finance, manufacturing, property, industrial products and consumer prod

In the Islamic legal tradition, the judiciary has always played an important role in a state’s relationship with its citizens. The qadi (jurist) and the mahkamah (court) are well-known concepts. Their essential requirements, however, by means of which judicial development and practical considerations are essentially made, are less obviously ident
