    Measurement of the T(t)over-Bar Production Cross Section in Pp Collisions at Root S=7 Tev With Lepton Plus Jets Final States
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2013) Karapınar, Güler
    A measurement of the a production cross section in pp collisions at root s = 7 TeV is presented. The results are based on data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.3 fb(-1) collected by the CMS detector at the LHC. Selected events are required to have one isolated, high transverse momentum electron or muon, large missing transverse energy, and hadronic jets, at least one of which must be consistent with having originated from a b quark. The measured cross section is 158.1 +/- 2.1 (stat.) +/- 10.2 (syst.) +/- 3.5 (lum.) pb, in agreement with standard model predictions. (C) 2013 CERN. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Search for Heavy Narrow Dilepton Resonances in Pp Collisions at Root S=7 Tev and Root S=8 Tev
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2013) Karapınar, Güler
    An updated search for heavy narrow resonances decaying to muon or electron pairs using the CMS detector is presented. Data samples from pp collisions at root s = 7 TeV and 8 TeV at the LHC, with integrated luminosities of up to 5.3 and 4.1 fb(-1), respectively, are combined. No evidence for a heavy narrow resonance is observed. The analysis of the combined data sets excludes, at 95% confidence level, a Sequential Standard Model Z '(SSM) resonance lighter than 2590 GeV, a superstring-inspired Z '(psi) lighter than 2260 GeV, and Kaluza-Klein gravitons lighter than 2390 (2030) GeV, assuming that the coupling parameter k/(M) over bar (Pl) is 0.10 (0.05). These are the most stringent limits to date. (C) 2013 CERN. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Measurement of the W+w- and Zz Production Cross Sections in Pp Collisions at Root S=8 Tev
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2013) Karapınar, Güler
    The W+W- and ZZ production cross sections are measured in proton-proton collisions at root s = 8 TeV with the CMS experiment at the LHC in data samples corresponding to an integrated luminosity of up to 5.3 fb(-1). The measurements are performed in the leptonic decay modes W+W- -> l'vl '' v and ZZ -> 2l2l', where l = e, mu and l'(l '') = e, mu, tau. The measured cross sections sigma (pp -> W+W-) =, 69.9 +/- 2.8 (stat.) +/- 5.6 (syst.) 3.1 +/- (lum.) pb and sigma (pp -> ZZ) = 8.4 +/- 1.0 (stat) +/- 0.7 (syst) +/- 0.4 (lum.) pb, for both Z bosons produced in the mass region 60 < m(Z) < 120 GeV, are consistent with standard model predictions. These are the first measurements of the diboson production cross sections at root s = 8 TeV. (C) 2013 CERN. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Event Shapes and Azimuthal Correlations in Z Plus Jets Events in Pp Collisions at Root S=7 Tev
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2013) Karapınar, Güler
    Measurements of event shapes and azimuthal correlations are presented for events where a Z boson is produced in association with jets in proton-proton collisions. The data collected with the CMS detector at the CERN LHC at root s = 7 TeV correspond to an integrated luminosity of 5.0 fb(-1). The analysis provides a test of predictions from perturbative QCD for a process that represents a substantial background to many physics channels. Results are presented as a function of jet multiplicity, for inclusive Z boson production and for Z bosons with transverse momenta greater than 150 GeV, and compared to predictions from Monte Carlo event generators that include leading-order multiparton matrix-element (with up to four hard partons in the final state) and next-to-leading-order simulations of Z + 1-jet events. The experimental results are corrected for detector effects, and can be compared directly with other QCD models. (c) 2013 CERN. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Fast Pyrolysis With Fractional Condensation of Lignin-Rich Digested Stillage From Second-Generation Bioethanol Production
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2020) Priharto, Neil; Ronsse, Frederik; Yıldız, Güray; Heeres, Hero Jan; Deuss, Peter J.; Prins, Wolter
    Poplar-derived lignin-rich feedstock (i.e. stillage) obtained from bioethanol production was subjected to fast pyrolysis in a modified fluidised bed reactor at 430 degrees C, 480 degrees C, and 530 degrees C. The stillage was pretreated by enzymatic digestion prior to fast pyrolysis. Pyrolysis vapors were collected by fractional condensation to separate the heavy organic and aqueous phase liquids. The intention of this study was to assess the potential utilization of lignin-rich digested stillage as a fast pyrolysis feedstock. Heavy organic and aqueous phase pyrolysis liquids were obtained in yields ranging from 15.1-18.1 wt.% and 9.7-13.4 wt.% respectively. The rest of the feedstock material was converted to char (37.1-44.7 wt.%) and non-condensable gases (27.1-31.5 wt.%). Detailed liquid analysis indicated that the heavy organic phase fractions contain compounds arising from the degradation of lignin, residual microbial biomass and remaining polysaccharides. Fast pyrolysis adds 26.8 wt.% to the conversion of this otherwise recalcitrant feedstock material, thereby reducing waste generation and enhancing the value of second-generation bioethanol production.

    Soil Erosion Model Tested on Experimental Data of a Laboratory Flume With a Pre-Existing Rill
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2020) Aksoy, Hafzullah; Gedikli, Abdullah; Yılmaz, Murat; Eriş, Ebru; Ünal, N. Erdem; Yoon, Jaeyoung; Tayfur, Gökmen
    Prediction of sediment discharge transported within flow is strongly needed in order to provide measures for a well-established erosion control and water quality management practice. Initiated by runoff generation and erosion processes sediment transport is influenced by microtopography over hillslopes of hydrological watersheds. Consideration of microtopography provides more accurate results. In this study, a process-based two-dimensional rainfall-runoff mathematical model is coupled with erosion and sediment transport component. Both the rainfall-runoff and sediment transport components make simulations in rills and over interrill areas of a bare hillslope. Models at such fine resolution are rarely verified due to the complexity of rills and interrill areas. The model was applied on a data set compiled from laboratory experiments. Erosion flume was filled with granular sand to replace a bare soil. A longitudinal rill and an interrill area were pre-formed over the soil in the flume before the simulated rainfall exerted on. The flume was given both longitudinal and lateral slopes. The simulated rainfall was changed between 45 mm/h and 105 mm/h and exerted on granular uniform fine and medium sand in the erosion flume with longitudinal and lateral slopes both changing from 5% to 20%. Calibration of the model shows that it is able to produce good results in terms of sedigraphs, which suggest also that the model might be considered an important step to verify and improve watershed scale erosion and sediment transport models.

    Experimental Investigation of a Decentralized Heat Recovery Ventilation System
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2020) Pekdoğan, Tuğçe; Tokuç, Ayça; Ezan, Mehmet Akif; Başaran, Tahsin
    Indoor air quality is an important issue for improving and maintaining the indoor environment because it is directly related to people's health and work performance. These days, in many settlements, the applicability of natural ventilation is limited in the face of the decreasing infiltration loads, increased atmospheric pollution, and the climatic conditions. Therefore, the use of mechanical systems that are designed to ensure proper ventilation is becoming widespread. This paper presents full-scale experimental research of a wall-integrated decentralized ventilation system with heat recovery in the laboratory conditions. The heat recovery unit includes a ceramic block for sensible thermal energy storage. Parametric experimental studies were carried out to obtain the temperature distributions and the thermal capacity of the ceramic block during the supply and exhaust modes of working. In order to simulate the winter and summer conditions, two large scale temperature-controlled rooms are built up. The duration of the ventilation period is varied to be 1, 2, 5, 7.5 and 10-min. Experimental measurements indicate that 2 min of operation time shows the best thermal performance in terms of maintaining a comfortable indoor temperature with the least energy consumption. And some shortcomings were observed about the fan and thermal storage limitations. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd

    Cold Sintering of Soda-Lime Glass
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2021) Karacasulu, Levent; Ögür, Ezgi; Pişkin, Cerem; Vakıfahmetoğlu, Çekdar
    Ordinary recycled soda lime glass powder was densified via cold sintering process with the aid of concentrated NaOH solution. Increase in processing time, temperature and concentration of the NaOH solution resulted in the formation of monolithic glass artifacts with higher relative densities. The sample densified the most (95.2%) was obtained when the sintering was performed at 250˚C with a 20 min dwell time using 15 M NaOH solution.

    Measurement of the W Boson Helicity Fractions in the Decays of Top Quark Pairs To Lepton Plus Jets Final States Produced in Pp Collisions at Root S=8 Tev
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2016) Karapınar, Güler; CMS Collaboration
    The W boson helicity fractions from top quark decays in t (t) over bar events are measured using data from proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV. The data were collected in 2012 with the CMS detector at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.8 fb(-1). Events are reconstructed with either one muon or one electron, along with four jets in the final state, with two of the jets being identified as originating from b quarks. The measured helicity fractions from both channels are combined, yielding F-0 = 0.681 +/- 0.012 (stat) +/- 0.023 (syst), F-L = 0.323 +/- 0.008 (stat) +/- 0.014 (syst), and F-R = -0.004 +/- 0.005 (stat) +/- 0.014 (syst) for the longitudinal, left-, and right-handed components of the helicity, respectively. These measurements of the W boson helicity fractions are the most accurate to date and they agree with the predictions from the standard model. (C) 2016 The Author. Published by Elsevier B.V.

    Combination of Searches for Heavy Resonances Decaying To Ww, Wz, Zz, Wh, and Zh Boson Pairs in Proton-Proton Collisions at Root S=8 and 13 Tev
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2017) Karapınar, Güler
    A statistical combination of searches is presented for massive resonances decaying to WW, WZ, ZZ, WH, and ZH boson pairs in proton-proton collision data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC. The data were taken at centre-of-mass energies of 8 and 13TeV, corresponding to respective integrated luminosities of 19.7 and up to 2.7 fb(-1). The results are interpreted in the context of heavy vector triplet and singlet models that mimic properties of composite-Higgs models predicting W' and Z' bosons decaying to WZ, WW, WH, and ZH bosons. A model with a bulk graviton that decays into WW and ZZ is also considered. This is the first combined search for WW, WZ, WH, and ZH resonances and yields lower limits on masses at 95% confidence level for W' and Z' singlets at 2.3 TeV, and for a triplet at 2.4TeV. The limits on the production cross section of a narrow bulk graviton resonance with the curvature scale of the warped extra dimension (K)over-tilde = 0.5, in the mass range of 0.6 to 4.0TeV, are the most stringent published to date.
