The extension of self-avoiding random walk series in two dimensions
The authors have extended the enumeration of square lattice and triangular lattice self-avoiding walks and their end-to-end distance by two terms. They have also calculated 17 terms in the series for the resistance of SAWs with bridges on the square lattice. Analysis of the new data allows the connective constants to be more accurately estimated, and affirms the values gamma =43/32 and v=3/4, and 1+ gamma for the exponent of the resistance series.

Charmed strange mesons experimental results
Two new states in the charm strange sector, DsJ*(2317)+ and DsJ(2460)+, have recently been discovered at e+e− collider experiments. The new states are first observed in the dominant Ds+π0 and Ds*+π0 modes respectively and are very narrow. They are consistent with 0+ and 1+ P‐wave cs mesons. The DsJ(2460)+ meson is also observed in Ds+γ and Ds+π+π− modes. A review of the discoveries and possible explanations is given.

INTEGRAL AND SWIFT OBSERVATIONS OF THE Be X-RAY BINARY 4U 1036-56 (RX J1037.5-5647) AND ITS POSSIBLE RELATION WITH gamma-RAY TRANSIENTS
We present timing, spectral, and long-term temporal analysis of the high-mass X-ray binary 4U 1036-56 using INTEGRAL and Swift observations. We show that it is a weak hard X-ray source spending a major fraction of the time in quiescence and only occasionally characterized by X-ray outbursts. The outburst activity we report here lasts several days, with a dynamic range spanned by the luminosity in quiescence and in outburst as high as similar to 30. We report the detection of pulse period at 854.75 +/- 4.39 s during an outburst, which is consistent with previous measurements. Finally, we analyze the possibility of the association of 4U 1036-56 with the unidentified transient gamma-ray sources AGL J1037-5708 and GRO J1036-55, as prompted by its positional correlation.

Searches for long-lived charged particles in pp collisions at $ \sqrt{s} $ =7 and 8 TeV
A bstractResults of searches for heavy stable charged particles produced in pp collisions at $ \sqrt{s} $ = 7 and 8 TeV are presented corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.0 fb−1 and 18.8 fb−1, respectively. Data collected with the CMS detector are used to study the momentum, energy deposition, and time-of-flight of signal candidates. Leptons with an electric charge between e/3 and 8e, as well as bound states that can undergo charge exchange with the detector material, are studied. Analysis results are presented for various combinations of signatures in the inner tracker only, inner tracker and muon detector, and muon detector only. Detector signatures utilized are long time-of-flight to the outer muon system and anomalously high (or low) energy deposition in the inner tracker. The data are consistent with the expected background, and upper limits are set on the production cross section of long-lived gluinos, scalar top quarks, and scalar τ leptons, as well as pair produced long-lived leptons. Corresponding lower mass limits, ranging up to 1322 GeV/c2 for gluinos, are the most stringent to date.

Improved measurement of Vub with inclusive semileptonic B decays.
We report a new measurement of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa parameter Vub made with a sample of 9.7 x 10(6) BB- events collected with the CLEO II detector. Using heavy quark theory, we combine the observed yield of leptons from semileptonic B decay in the end-point momentum interval 2.2-2.6 GeV/c with recent CLEO II data on B-->X(s)gamma to find Vub = (4.08+/-0.34+/-0.44+/-0.16+/-0.24)x10(-3), where the first two uncertainties are experimental and the last two are from theory.

Search for very light CP-odd Higgs Boson in radiative decays of Upsilon(1S).
We search for a non-SM-like CP-odd Higgs boson (a(1)(0)) decaying to tau(+)tau(-) or mu(+)mu(-) in radiative decays of the Upsilon(1S). No significant signal is found, and upper limits on the product branching ratios are set. Our tau(+)tau(-) results are almost 2 orders of magnitude more stringent than previous upper limits. Our data provide no evidence for a Higgs state with a mass of 214 MeV decaying to mu(+)mu(-), previously proposed as an explanation for 3 Sigma(+)-->pmu(+)mu(-) events observed by the HyperCP experiment. Our results constrain NMSSM models.
