Discovering and forecasting extreme events via active learning in neural operators by Pickering, Ethan, Guth, Stephen, Karniadakis, George Em, Sapsis, Themistoklis P

“…We show that not only does this framework outperform Gaussian processes, but that (1) shallow ensembles of just two members perform best; (2) extremes are uncovered regardless of the state of the initial data (that is, with or without extremes); (3) our method eliminates 'double-descent' phenomena; (4) the use of batches of suboptimal acquisition samples compared to step-by-step global optima does not hinder BED performance; and (5) Monte Carlo acquisition outperforms standard optimizers in high dimensions. …”

Observation of the B+ c → J/ψπ+π 0 decay by Aaij, R., Abdelmotteleb, A. S. W., Abellan Beteta, C., Abudinén, F., Ackernley, T., Adams, J. A., Adefisoye, A. A., Adeva, B., Adinolfi, M., Adlarson, P., Agapopoulou, C., Aidala, C. A., Ajaltouni, Z., Akar, S., Akiba, K., Albicocco, P.

“…The first observation of the B c + → J / ψ π + π 0 $$ {B}_c^{+}\to J/\psi {\pi}^{+}{\pi}^0 $$ decay is reported with high significance using proton-proton collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb−1, collected with the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies of 7, 8, and 13 TeV. The ratio of its branching fraction relative to the B c + → J / ψ π + $$ {B}_c^{+}\to J/\psi {\pi}^{+} $$ channel is measured to be B B c + → J / ψ π + π 0 B B c + → J / ψ π + = 2.80 ± 0.15 ± 0.11 ± 0.16 , $$ \frac{{\mathcal{B}}_{B_c^{+}\to J/\psi {\pi}^{+}{\pi}^0}}{{\mathcal{B}}_{B_c^{+}\to J/\psi {\pi}^{+}}}=2.80\pm 0.15\pm 0.11\pm 0.16, $$ where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second systematic and the third related to imprecise knowledge of the branching fractions for B+ → J/ψK*+ and B c + → J / ψ π + $$ {B}_c^{+}\to J/\psi {\pi}^{+} $$ decays, which are used to determine the π0 detection efficiency. …”
