ABSTRACT

Optical frequencies of the D line transitions in ^{9}Be^{+} were measured with a relative uncertainty of Δν/ν=5×10^{-11}. The results represent the highest accuracy achieved on a broad electric dipole-allowed (E1) transition in a trapped ion experiment to date, enabled in part by detailed consideration of photon recoil and quantum interference. Measurements were made on a single laser-cooled ion stored in a radio frequency Paul trap, using a spectroscopy laser stabilized to an optical frequency comb and referenced to UTC (NIST). The uncertainties in the D_{1} and D_{2} lines have been reduced by a factor of 10 and 30, respectively, compared to previous work. We have extracted the ^{2}P fine structure splitting, Δν_{fs}=197 064.54(7) MHz, and the ^{2}P_{1/2} hyperfine constant, A_{P_{1/2}}=-117.92(4) MHz.

ABSTRACT

We report on a comparison between the theoretically predicted and experimentally measured spectra of the first-forbidden nonunique ß-decay transition ^{137}Xe(7/2^{-})→^{137}Cs(7/2^{+}). The experimental data were acquired by the EXO-200 experiment during a deployment of an AmBe neutron source. The ultralow background environment of EXO-200, together with dedicated source deployment and analysis procedures, allowed for collection of a pure sample of the decays, with an estimated signal to background ratio of more than 99 to 1 in the energy range from 1075 to 4175 keV. In addition to providing a rare and accurate measurement of the first-forbidden nonunique ß-decay shape, this work constitutes a novel test of the calculated electron spectral shapes in the context of the reactor antineutrino anomaly and spectral bump.

ABSTRACT

A search for neutrinoless double-ß decay (0νßß) in ^{136}Xe is performed with the full EXO-200 dataset using a deep neural network to discriminate between 0νßß and background events. Relative to previous analyses, the signal detection efficiency has been raised from 80.8% to 96.4±3.0%, and the energy resolution of the detector at the Q value of ^{136}Xe 0νßß has been improved from σ/E=1.23% to 1.15±0.02% with the upgraded detector. Accounting for the new data, the median 90% confidence level 0νßß half-life sensitivity for this analysis is 5.0×10^{25} yr with a total ^{136}Xe exposure of 234.1 kg yr. No statistically significant evidence for 0νßß is observed, leading to a lower limit on the 0νßß half-life of 3.5×10^{25} yr at the 90% confidence level.

ABSTRACT

In 1984, the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) began funding its Child and Adolescent Service System Program (CASSP). In this paper, we present findings from a descriptive study of the experiences of the initial cohort of states to receive CASSP grants, conceived and conducted when the projects were approaching the end of their fifth and final year of NIMH funding. Detailed case studies were conducted of each of the 10 initial cohort projects, and the findings analyzed across projects. Data were collected from three major sources: (1) existing documentation about the projects, (2) site visits to each of the projects, and (3) information from relevant secondary sources. Findings suggest that the initial cohort projects utilized a variety of strategies and encountered a variety of barriers and facilitating factors. The projects generally implemented the intended CASSP program and did so by using a variety of strategies. The projects were judged by stakeholders in their states to have influenced the service systems in their states in the intended directions: toward a more comprehensive system of care that emphasizes community-based treatment; toward better integrated, more collaborative efforts among the state agencies involved; toward a more detailed understanding on the part of system stakeholders of the mental health problems of children and adolescents who have severe emotional disturbances, and of the influence of those problems on the lives of the children and their families; and toward increased involvement by parents and other family members in the care of these children and adolescents.

ABSTRACT

Several theoretically important and distinct categories of life change are found in most life event scales. These categories can be organized in terms of at least three dimensions: the person's control over the event, the desirability of the event, and whether or not the independent variable of the event is confounded with the dependent variable of illness. It is important to separate conceptually and, to the extent possible, to distinguish empirically among events according to these dimensions, because several different models of the event-illness relationship are implied when events from several categories are combined. A secondary analysis of recently published data shows that the kinds of events associated with illness are undesirable events within the subject's control. It may not be necessary to consider these dimensions in predicting illness, but the prevention and understanding of illness are furthered by their consideration.
