Inelasticity, the fraction of a neutrino's energy transferred to hadrons, is a quantity of interest in the study of astrophysical and atmospheric neutrino interactions at multi-TeV energies with IceCube. In this work, a sample of contained neutrino interactions in IceCube is obtained from five years of data and classified as 2650 tracks and 965 cascades. Tracks arise predominantly from charged-current ν μ interactions, and we demonstrate that we can reconstruct their energy and inelasticity. The inelasticity distribution is found to be consistent with the calculation of Cooper-Sarkar et al. across the energy range from ∼1 to ∼100 TeV. Along with cascades from neutrinos of all flavors, we also perform a fit over the energy, zenith angle, and inelasticity distribution to characterize the flux of astrophysical and atmospheric neutrinos. The energy spectrum of diffuse astrophysical neutrinos is described well by a power law in both track and cascade samples, and a best-fit index γ ¼ 2.62 AE 0.07 is found in the energy range from 3.5 TeV to 2.6 PeV. Limits are set on the astrophysical flavor composition and are compatible with a ratio of ð 1 3 ∶ 1 3 ∶ 1 3 Þ ⊕. Exploiting the distinct inelasticity distribution of ν μ andν μ interactions, the atmospheric ν μ toν μ flux ratio in the energy range from 770 GeV to 21 TeV is found to be 0.77 þ0.44 −0.25 times the calculation by Honda et al. Lastly, the inelasticity distribution is also sensitive to neutrino charged-current charm production. The data are consistent with a leading-order calculation, with zero charm production excluded at 91% confidence level. Future analyses of inelasticity distributions may probe new physics that affects neutrino interactions both in and beyond the Standard Model.

Novel polystyrene supported mixed Schiff base (PSCH2–LH2) and its coordination compounds with copper(II) and zirconium(IV) have been synthesized. PSCH2–LH2 has been synthesized by the reaction of chloromethylated polystyrene crosslinked with divinylbenzene (PSCH2–Cl) and the Schiff base (LH2) derived from 3-formylsalicylic acid, propylenediamine and acetylacetone. The polystyrene supported coordination compounds are of the types: [PSCH2–LCu] and [PSCH2–LZr(OH)2·DMF]. They have been synthesized by the reaction of PSCH2–LH2 and the metal salt in DMF. The coordination compounds have been characterized on the basis of elemental analyses, IR, reflectance, ESR spectral and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The shifts of the ν(C=N) (azomethine), ν(C–O) (phenolic) and ν(C–O) (enolic) stretches indicate the ONNO donor behaviour of PSCH2–LH2. The polystyrene supported Cu(II) compound is square planar and Zr(IV) compound is pentagonal bipyramidal. The coordinated solvent molecules are completely lost from metal bound coordination compound by heating them at definite temperature in an air oven for 3 h. The compound, PSCH2–LCu is paramagnetic, while PSCH2–LZr(OH)2·DMF is diamagnetic.

ObjectiveInadvertently submitting a paper to a journal that is unlikely to publish it is a waste of resources and ultimately delays dissemination of one’s research. A high proportion of manuscripts are rejected by their author’s first-choice journal. The aim of the present work was to review guidance provided within the literature for journal selection that might minimize the chance of manuscript rejection. We also consider papers that encompass more than one main medical science and describe the selection process that we used with a paper that was published in Cardiovascular Endocrinology.MethodsA database search (Embase, PubMed and Medworm) was performed for all articles published in the scientific literature providing guidance on journal selection. Articles were identified that either had journal selection as their principal topic or included journal selection as part of a broader discussion of publishing. The relative performance of four free-to-use, web-based applications that claim to provide guidance on journal selection was compared.ResultsThe searches identified 286 hits, of which 249 were in English. Of these papers, 16 discussed journal selection and a further 10 articles were identified from citations within the original 16 articles. Only one article described a comprehensive model for submission decision-making. Identification of appropriate candidate journals by various web-based applications was erratic, with the Jane database providing the most robust suggestions.ConclusionOur work suggests that little attention has been focused in the scientific literature on the mechanisms that authors use to select a journal for their work. Nevertheless, scientists for the most part seem to have a good sense of where their papers are most likely to be accepted. Beyond ensuring that a manuscript fulfils all the target journal’s requirements, the literature suggests that it is important to have an objective view of the scientific contribution or ‘value’ of your work.
