A search is presented for excited quarks of light and heavy flavor that decay to γ+jet final states. The analysis is based on data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9fb−1 collected by the CMS experiment in proton–proton collisions at s=13TeV at the LHC. A signal would appear as a resonant contribution to the invariant mass spectr

Background Opioid prescribing has increased tremendously in the last two decades which concomitantly increased the unwanted consequences such as opioid abuse, misuse and overdose death. Poor adherence to opioid therapy is one of the factors contributing to these problems which are associated with increased healthcare cost. Limited data are availabl

A search for dark matter is conducted in events with large missing transverse momentum and a hadronically decaying, Lorentz-boosted top quark. This study is performed using proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, in data recorded by the CMS detector in 2016 at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36 fb−1 .

This paper examines the interplay of rhetorical devices and intertextuality in projecting the branding image of promotional discourse i.e. online advertisements of three common fast food chains in Malaysia. This study, which adapted the framework of rhetorical devices developed by Michalik and Michalska-Suchanek (2016), investigated the utilisation

Vibrio infections are common among marine fish and lead to serious problems in the aquaculture sector. This study reports a recent occurrence of Vibrio species (spp.) isolated from cultured groupers in Peninsular Malaysia using the gyrB and pyrH genes. A total of 147 Vibrio strains were successfully isolated from 77 (64%) groupers using culture met

Introduction: Pharmacogenomics is a science that incorporates three different field of studies; pharmacology, medicine and genomics. It has been found out that, applying pharmacogenomics in clinical setting can help in improving patient outcome hence justifying the needs for this subject to be incorporated in the curriculum of a pharmacy program. O

The current trend of data collection involves a small number of observations with a very large number of variables, known as high dimensional data. Mining these data produces an explosive number of smaller itemsets which are less important than colossal (large) ones. As the trend in Frequent Itemset Mining is moving towards mining colossal itemsets

Library online database system (LODS) has been developed to support the process of studies and research among undergraduate (UG) students. This paper reports on the user evaluation results that examine participants’ acceptance. The objectives of the user evaluation are to ensure that the new system does what it sets out to do and meets the requir

Pahang and Terengganu are coastal states with abundance of rural tourist attractions. The east-coast region has a mix of distinctive built environments and panoramic natural landscapes that are complemented with rich heritage food and culture that can be enjoyed through drive tourism. However, the landscape features of the east coast region are fra
