Dear bfys friends,
Below is a mail announcing the circulation of the Bsmumu paper, which is
submitted to Nature.
We are not requested to read it as an institute, but I think it would be
good if we would review it anyway because of the unique character of the
paper (submitted to Nature) and since we have been deeply involved in the
work.
regards,
- Marcel

Subject: First AND ONLY circulation of publication draft for
PAPER-2014-049, Observation of the rare $B_s^0 \to \mu^+\mu^-$ decay from
the combined analysis of CMS and LHCb data
To: "lhcb-general (LHCb General mailing list)" <lhcb-general(a)cern.ch>
Dear Colleagues,
This is to announce the first and only 11-day circulation of the paper
describing the combined analysis of the Bs->mumu decay from
LHCb and CMS data. This draft is coauthored with CMS and went into
circulation with the same deadline there today as well.
This is our first paper to Nature, which explains the (for us) unusual
sectioning, demanded by the journal.

Dear bfys friends,
This friday Patrick Werneke organises a dedicated technical colloquium on
the use of magnesium as a construction metal (see below).
If you are interested please join the colloquium Friday, at 10h45 in H331.

Beste allemaal,
Zouden jullie dit aan andere geïnteresseerden binnen jullie groep kunnen
forwarden?
Aanstaande vrijdag is een colloquium over magnesium als constructie
materiaal: 5 september om 10.45 in H331.
Met atoomnummer 12 en een soortelijk gewicht van 1,7 kg/dm^3 is magnesium
een interessant materiaal voor ons ivm stralingslengte en voor andere
lichtgewicht constructies. Magnesium heeft ook enkele nadelen.
Wim Sillekens (ESA) en Robert Werkhoven (TNO) hebben in het verleden veel
onderzoek gedaan naar het materiaal magnesium. Zij zullen een algemene
inleiding geven over het materiaal magnesium en vertellen over de diverse
onderzoeken die gedaan zijn bij TNO/ESA. Het is in ieder geval de moeite
waard om naar het colloquium te komen.
Wim is ook verantwoordelijk voor het ExoMet Project. Dit is een EU/ESA
onderzoeksproject naar lichte metaal legeringen en nanocomposieten.
Wellicht gebruiken we in de toekomst alleen nog maar materialen die bestaan
uit nanocomposieten.
groet, Patrick

Note that this list differs from what was announced at the time of the approval:
the last-minute change was done to free institutes that had just gotten the
113 page luminosity paper from any other assignments.
Although the main body of the draft has been fully reviewed and signed off by
the reviewers,
a couple of 'technical' items are still missing due the very short available
time between approval
and the proponent leaving for a trip.
The present draft misses: paper number / author list / PRL justification / word
count

> by Manuel Tobias Schiller (NIKHEF (NL))
>
> https://indico.cern.ch/event/325959/
>
>
> Abstract: The angle gamma is the least constrained parameter in the CKM unitarity triangle. Its determination in decays induced by tree-level b -> u transitions is largely unaffected by potential new physics contributions.
> This allows for a consistency check of the unitarity triangle, but also of comparisons with gamma determinations from modes with loop-diagrams.
> We present here a new precise determination of gamma using a time-dependent flavour-tagged analysis of Bs -> Ds K decays with the LHCb experiment.
> New developments in flavour tagging are presented.
>
> Please note that a Webcast will be available for this Seminar.
