© 2019 authors. Published by the American Physical Society.The OPERA experiment has conclusively observed the appearance of tau neutrinos in the muon neutrino CNGS beam. Exploiting the OPERA detector capabilities, it was possible to isolate high purity samples of νe, νμ and ντ charged current weak neutrino interactions, as well as neutral current weak interactions. In this paper, the full dataset is used for the first time to test the three-flavor neutrino oscillation model and to derive constraints on the existence of a light sterile neutrino within the framework of the 3+1 neutrino model. For the first time, tau and electron neutrino appearance channels are jointly used to test the sterile neutrino hypothesis. A significant fraction of the sterile neutrino parameter space allowed by LSND and MiniBooNE experiments is excluded at 90% C.L. In particular, the best-fit values obtained by MiniBooNE combining neutrino and antineutrino data are excluded at 3.3σ significance.

First principles study of the vibrational and thermo-elastic properties of BaScO3 perovskite oxide Gencer, A.; Sürücü, Gökhan (2019-11-25) © 2019 Author(s).The vibrational and thermo-elastic properties of BaScO3 compound have been investigated using Density Functional Theory (DFT) with Vienna Ab initio Simulation Package (VASP). Perovskite materials could crystallize in five possible crystal structures: orthorhombic, tetragonal, rhombohedral, hexagonal, and cubic. Therefore, BaScO3 has been investigated for these five possible crystal structures and the most stable phase has been determined as the orthorhombic phase. Then, the vibrational prop...
DFT study for the mechanical and electronic properties of Mg3BHx (x=l,4,7) compounds for hydrogen storage applications Gencer, A.; Sürücü, Gökhan (2019-11-25) © 2019 Author(s).The electronic devices such as cell phones, laptops etc. are a necessary part of our daily life that requires portable power sources. Hydrogen being the most abundant element on the Earth, is an excellent energy carrier with high energy capacity that enable to use hydrogen storage methods in portable power sources. In addition, hydrogen storage could be essential to store the energy obtained from the renewable energy sources. The solid state hydrogen storage is an encouraging method for hyd...
Analysis of FCNC ΞqQ → Λql+l- decay in light-cone sum rules Alıyev, Tahmasıb; Savcı, Mustafa; Bilmiş, Selçuk (2022-8-01) © 2022 authors. Published by the American Physical Society.The weak decays of doubly heavy ΞQQ baryon induced by flavor changing b→d and c→u flavor changing neutral current within the light-cone sum rules are studied. The sum rules are constructed and analyzed for the corresponding transition form factors using the parallel components of the light-cone distribution amplitudes for ΛQ baryon. Having the results for the form factors, the corresponding branching ratios for ΞQQ→ΛQl+l- decays are estimated. While...
Determination of the spectroscopic parameters of beauty-partners of Tcc from QCD Alıyev, Tahmasıb; Savcı, Mustafa; Bilmiş, Selçuk (2022-04-01) © 2022 authors. Published by the American Physical Society.Motivated by the recent discovery of a new tetraquark Tcc+ state with two charm quarks and two light quarks by LHCb Collaboration, we calculate the spectroscopic parameters; namely, the mass and residues of beauty partners of Tcc+ within QCD sum rules. The obtained results are compared with the predictions of different approaches in the literature.
Manufacturing silk/epoxy composite laminates: Challenges and opportunities Hamidi, Youssef K.; Yalcinkaya, M. Akif; Güloğlu, Görkem Eğemen; Pishvar, Maya; Amirkhosravi, Mehrad; Altan, M. Cengiz (2019-02-06) © 2019 Author(s).Application of natural fibers in polymer composites has been gaining popularity in several industries pursuing environmentally friendly products. Among the natural fibers with proven potential applications, silk fibers have recently received considerable attention from researchers. Silk fibers provide higher mechanical properties compared to other commonly used natural fibers such as sisal, jute, and hemp. Silk may also exhibit comparable specific mechanical properties to glass fibers. Howe...
