Leptonic B meson decay question

Hi,

This question is in the context of B physics colliders (i.e. Belle) and is about the kinematics of purely leptonic B decays.

I was reading a paper that said in the rest frame of a signal B, the lepton from the decay (say the B -> mu nu decay) is monoenergetic. I'm struggling to see why this is the case because for a two-body decay, surely the momentum/energy would be a spectrum rather than a narrow band as the momentum could be split differently to each particle each time a decay occurs.

What am I missing?

Thanks! :)

Can a charged B-meson oscillate?

I know neutral B-mesons can oscillate to their antimatter counterpart and the amplitudes of these oscillations (anti-matter -> matter β‰  matter -> anti-matter) shows CP violation in the b-sector. But can charged B-mesons also produce CP violation in this way?

for example can a (u b-bar) -> (u-bar b) B+ -> B- ? does this happen? If so does it require a 2nd order process or can it be described using a leading order diagram?

(I think i've just worked it out but will post in case I'm wrong) My guess is that it can happen B+ <-> B- but needs a 2nd order process to bring in or take out the charge via a W..?

Thanks!

The variable behavior of two subatomic particles, K and B mesons, appears to be responsible for making the universe move forwards in time.

This is an automatic summary, original reduced by 61%.


> In the paper, entitled Quantum asymmetry between time and space, she suggests there may be a deeper origin due to a difference between the two directions of time: to the future and to the past.

> &quot;When this subtle behaviour is included in a model of the universe, what we see is the universe changing from being fixed at one moment in time to continuously evolving."

> &quot;Understanding how time evolution comes about in this way opens up a whole new view on the fundamental nature of time itself."

> According to the paper, an asymmetry exists between time and space in the sense that physical systems inevitably evolve over time whereas there is no corresponding ubiquitous translation over space.

> Associate Professor Vaccaro used a &quot;Sum-over-paths formalism&quot; to demonstrate the possibility of a time and space symmetry, meaning the conventional view of time evolution would need to be revisited.

> &quot;In the connection between time and space, space is easier to understand because it&#039;s simply there. But time is forever forcing us towards the future,&quot; says Associate Professor Vaccaro.

Hi r/ufos,

I hope your 2022nd revolution around the sun celebrations were amazing.

It’s been a minute since I posted, but I wanted to bring forward some connecting information that was disseminated in 2021 behind the UAP narrative.

This is analysis and narrative shaping, of a design that may seem fantastical, but I ask you to ponder.

The reason for my ask, is because I decided to ask questions beyond β€œIs that a bird?” β€œWho’s lying about alien pictures?” β€œWhere are the bodies at AREA 51?” I don’t have the answers, but I have a will and a joy to share what I found. Maybe we can piece it together.

We should all at least be familiar with the occult beliefs and nature of factions older than may be comprehensible. Mystery Schools. Knowledge kept behind closed doors about our true history.

Hermetics. Rosicrucian’s. Dead Sea Scrolls. Vril Society. Thule Society. Gobekli Tepe. Sumerian / Mesopotamian history; Jack Parsons and the dabbling’s of closed door Mad science, etc etc etc. If you believe there are no hidden secrets and we figured it out with the Smithsonian presentations, and Newtonian physics… shit. Pull the consciousness out of the 20th Century. This ride never stops changing. The victors write the books.

Our leaders and power structures are very familiar with the occultism beyond our standard religious organizations. They are practitioners at the highest echelons. You can deny this until you are blue in the face, but the knowledge exists. There are many orders and many elite schools. This isn’t fiction. It doesn’t have to be real to you, but to them, it’s as real as it gets.

You have paid for their experiments. You have paid for their search to dig, scrape and squirrel away β€œsecret knowledge” for decades. Centuries. Millenia. All searching for β€œproof” of the design, and chasing the ultimate question; β€œWhat is the meaning of all this?” β€œHow can we use it to survive?”

While keeping us placated in the scam.

This is a collection of breadcrumbs, that are shaping the narrative and nature of β€œDISCLOSURE”, that may or may not play a role in what is coming. The thoughts are my own, and in no way reflect any organization or clandestine dealings of groups who hold the keys and cards.

This is NOT all the facts. This is NOT all narratives. This is NOT β€˜THE’ Narrative. And wildly uncomfortable to write.

There is a galactic clock, and time scale, noted by the ancients, and being explored (if not already very accurately reproduced today) when it comes to en

SERIOUS: This subreddit needs to understand what a "dad joke" really means.

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

GUIDE: GNOME 42 on GNOME 40/41 while you wait for the official release...

Here's a quick guide to make the wait for GNOME 42 more bearable for you, like it did for me! :)

You will install the Libadwaita theme and the icon theme on your existing system if you follow this guide. Your system will look like GNOME 42.

Here's what my GNOME 41 (Fedora 35) desktop looks like!

And you are very likely to keep this GTK 3 backport of Libadwaita in the future when you use the real GNOME 42, because otherwise your GTK 3 apps will look like ancient garbage next to your real libadwaita apps. So you will benefit from this guide even when GNOME 42 is released.

Install the dependencies.

You need these packages on your system.

  • Debian/Ubuntu/Mint/PopOS - sudo apt install ninja-build git meson sassc
  • Fedora - sudo dnf install ninja-build git meson sassc
  • Arch/Manjaro - sudo pacman -S ninja git meson sassc
  • OpenSuse - sudo zypper in ninja git meson sassc

Install the Libadwaita theme backport for GTK3.

git clone https://github.com/lassekongo83/adw-gtk3.git ~/Code/Third\ Party/adw-gtk3
cd ~/Code/Third\ Party/adw-gtk3
meson build
sudo ninja -C build install

Enable the theme.

Light:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme adw-gtk3

Dark:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme adw-gtk3-dark

Install the GNOME 42 icons.

This gives you colorful folder icons, among other things.

The first line with dependencies is for Fedora and will have to be adapted if you use something else.

sudo dnf in autoconf automake git make
git clone --depth=1 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/adwaita-icon-theme.git ~/Downloads/adwaita-icon-theme
cd ~/Downloads/adwaita-icon-theme
./autogen.sh
make
sudo make install
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface icon-theme Adwaita

Restart your shell (or log out and back in) to apply the new icons. You can delete the source code folder ~/Downloads/adwaita-icon-theme after the installation.

Creating an auto-update alias for the GTK3 Libadwaita theme.

Put the following alias in your ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc file or whatever you use:

alias adw-update="cd ~/Code/Third\ Party/adw-gtk3 &amp;&amp; git fetch origin &amp;&amp; git reset --hard origin/main &amp;&amp; git clean -fd &amp;&amp; meson build &amp;&amp; sudo ninja -C build install"

Run adw-update periodically, since the author is constantly improving the theme.

Bonus: Installing the GTK3 theme into your Flatpak environment, to

Just because it's a joke, doesn't mean it's a dad joke

Alot of great jokes get posted here! However just because you have a joke, doesn't mean it's a dad joke.

THIS IS NOT ABOUT NSFW, THIS IS ABOUT LONG JOKES, BLONDE JOKES, SEXUAL JOKES, KNOCK KNOCK JOKES, POLITICAL JOKES, ETC BEING POSTED IN A DAD JOKE SUB

Try telling these sexual jokes that get posted here, to your kid and see how your spouse likes it.. if that goes well, Try telling one of your friends kid about your sex life being like Coca cola, first it was normal, than light and now zero , and see if the parents are OK with you telling their kid the "dad joke"

I'm not even referencing the NSFW, I'm saying Dad jokes are corny, and sometimes painful, not sexual

So check out r/jokes for all types of jokes

r/unclejokes for dirty jokes

r/3amjokes for real weird and alot of OC

r/cleandadjokes If your really sick of seeing not dad jokes in r/dadjokes

Punchline !

Edit: this is not a post about NSFW , This is about jokes, knock knock jokes, blonde jokes, political jokes etc being posted in a dad joke sub
