Article Abstract

The first test of lepton flavor universality between muons and electrons using B^{+}→K^{+}π^{+}π^{-}ℓ^{+}ℓ^{-} (ℓ=e, μ) decays is presented. The measurement is performed with data from proton-proton collisions collected by the LHCb experiment at center-of-mass energies of 7, 8, and 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9  fb^{-1}. The ratio of branching fractions between B^{+}→K^{+}π^{+}π^{-}e^{+}e^{-} and B^{+}→K^{+}π^{+}π^{-}μ^{+}μ^{-} decays is measured in the dilepton invariant-mass-squared range 1.1

Lepton flavor universality in rare b→s transitions is tested for the first time using B_{s}^{0} meson decays. The measurements are performed using pp collision data collected by the LHCb experiment between 2011 and 2018, corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 9  fb^{-1}. Branching fraction ratios between the B_{s}^{0}→ϕe^{+}e^{-} and B_{s}^{0}→ϕμ^{+}μ^{-} decays are measured in three regions of dilepton mass squared, q^{2}, with 0.

One of the main goals of studying semileptonic decays in flavor physics is to gain a better understanding of hadronic transitions in the nonperturbative region of Quantum Chromodynamics. This involves measuring Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix elements, understanding form factors, and comparing them with theoretical predictions. We report a first study of the semileptonic decay D^{0}→K^{-}π^{0}μ^{+}ν_{μ} by analyzing an e^{+}e^{-} annihilation data sample of 7.

We report the first lattice QCD computation of pion and kaon electromagnetic form factors, F_{M}(Q^{2}), at large momentum transfer up to 10 and 28  GeV^{2}, respectively. Utilizing physical masses and two fine lattices, we achieve good agreement with JLab experimental results at Q^{2}≲4  GeV^{2}. For Q^{2}≳4  GeV^{2}, our results provide ab initio QCD benchmarks for the forthcoming experiments at JLab 12 GeV and future electron-ion colliders.

The intensive nutrient requirements needed to sustain T cell activation and proliferation, combined with competition for nutrients within the tumor microenvironment, raise the prospect that glucose availability may limit CAR-T cell function. Here, we seek to test the hypothesis that stable overexpression (OE) of the glucose transporter GLUT1 in primary human CAR-T cells would improve their function and antitumor potency. We observe that GLUT1OE in CAR-T cells increases glucose consumption, glycolysis, glycolytic reserve, and oxidative phosphorylation, and these effects are associated with decreased T cell exhaustion and increased Th differentiation.
