The Expected Linkage Disequilibrium in Finite Populations Revisited

Kavli Affiliate: Christopher Ober| First 5 Authors: Ulrike Ober, Ulrike Ober, , , | Summary:The expected level of linkage disequilibrium (LD) in a finite ideal population at equilibrium is of relevance for many applications in population and quantitative genetics. Several recursion formulae have been proposed during the last decades, whose derivations mostly contain heuristic parts […]

Evidence of Electron Neutrino Appearance in a Muon Neutrino Beam

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Hartz | Summary:The T2K collaboration: reports evidence for electron neutrino appearance at the atmospheric mass splitting, |Δm_32^2|=2.4×10^-3 eV^2. An excess of electron neutrino interactions over background is observed from a muon neutrino beam with a peak energy of 0.6 GeV at the Super-Kamiokande (SK) detector 295 km from the beam’s origin. Signal […]
