The Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF) is a 5000 t magnetic detector built to study 2 TeV p
p collisions at the Fermilab Tevatron. Event analysis is based on charged particle tracking, …

This conceptual introduction to the Special Section examines different modes of ‘tentative
governance’ of Emerging Science and Technology (EST). The notion of tentative governance …

The elements, theoretical basis, and experimental status of perturbative quantum chromodynamics
are presented. Relevant field-theoretic methods are introduced at a nonspecialist …

Starting from the co-evolutionary development of innovation practice, theory and policy, five
functions are identified that play a crucial role in the management of present-day innovation …

In Europe, public research, technology and innovation policies are no longer exclusively in
the hands of national authorities: increasingly, national initiatives are supplemented by or …

Glucocorticoids (GCs) are known to modulate memory in animals and humans. One popular
model suggests that stress or GC treatment enhances memory consolidation while …

An up-to-date global QCD analysis of high energy lepton-hadron and hadron-hadron interactions
is performed to better determine the gluon and quark parton distributions in the nucleon…

Aims. We present cosmological constraints from a joint analysis of type Ia supernova (SN Ia)
observations obtained by the SDSS-II and SNLS collaborations. The dataset includes …

The paper explores transformative ways to address Grand Challenges, while locating them
in a broader diagnosis of ongoing changes. Coping with Grand Challenges is a challenge in …

Jet production at the Tevatron probes some of the smallest distance scales currently accessible.
A gluon distribution that is enhanced at large x compared to previous determinations …
