Astrocyte Responses Influence Local Effects of Whole‐Brain Magnetic Stimulation in Parkinsonian Rats
Abstract Background Excessive glutamatergic transmission in the striatum is implicated in Parkinson's disease (PD) progression. Astrocytes maintain glutamate homeostasis, protecting from excitotoxicity through the glutamate–aspartate transporter (GLAST), whose alterations have been reported in PD.

Semileptonic decays of $$B_c$$Bc meson to S-wave charmonium states in the perturbative QCD approach [PDF]
Inspired by the recent measurement of the ratio of $$B_c$$Bc branching fractions to $$J/\psi \pi ^+$$J/ψπ+ and $$J/\psi \mu ^+\nu _{\mu }$$J/ψμ+νμ final states at the LHCb detector, we study the semileptonic decays of $$B_c$$Bc meson to the S-wave ground

Perturbing QCD with external fields [PDF]
We present some up-to-date results on QCD phase transition in a chromomagnetic constant background field and in an abelian monopole background field. Our results indicate that the QCD critical temperature is not modified by a monopole background field, whilst it is modified by a constant chromomagnetic field.

Transverse momentum distributions in low-mass Drell-Yan lepton pair production at NNLO QCD
The production of lepton pairs at low invariant mass and finite transverse momentum resolves QCD dynamics at the boundary between the perturbative and non-perturbative domains.

Event-by-event fluctuations in perturbative QCD + saturation + hydro model: pinning down QCD matter shear viscosity in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions [PDF]
We introduce an event-by-event perturbative-QCD + saturation + hydro ("EKRT") framework for ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions, where we compute the produced fluctuating QCD-matter energy densities from next-to-leading order perturbative QCD using a ...

Quark mass relations to four-loop order in perturbative QCD. [PDF]
We present results for the relation between a heavy quark mass defined in the on-shell and minimal subtraction (MS[over ¯]) scheme to four-loop order. The method to compute the four-loop on-shell integral is briefly described and the new results are used

Longitudinal Conductivity in Strong Magnetic Field in Perturbative QCD: Complete Leading Order [PDF]
We compute the longitudinal electrical conductivity in the presence of a strong background magnetic field in complete leading order of perturbative QCD, based on the assumed hierarchy of scales αseB≪(mq2,T2)≪eB.

Vacuum correlators at short distances from lattice QCD
Non-perturbatively computing the hadronic vacuum polarization at large photon virtualities and making contact with perturbation theory enables a precision determination of the electromagnetic coupling at the Z pole, which enters global electroweak fits ...

Quantum simulation of colour in perturbative quantum chromodynamics
Quantum computers are expected to give major speed-ups for the simulation of quantum systems. In this work, we present quantum gates that simulate the colour part of the interactions of quarks and gluons in perturbative quantum chromodynamics (QCD). As a
