Addition to Aoki et al. (2017): phylogenetic position of Oxalis trilliifolia in subsection Oxalis (Oxalidaceae)

Abstract

Oxalis trilliifolia Hooker (1831:118; as “trilliifolium”) is distributed in western North America. The species was previously treated in a monotypic genus as Hesperoxalis triliifolia (Hook.) Small (1907: 27). However, it was recently included in Oxalis subsect. Oxalis by Lourteig (2000). It was the only species that could not be included in our previous phylogenetic analysis of O. subsect. Oxalis (Aoki et al. 2017). After the publication of our previous study, we obtained one DNA sample of O. trilliifolia from the DNA Bank of the Missouri Botanical Garden, i.e., MO-275113, which was collected from Oregon, USA. We confirmed a duplicate sheet of its voucher specimen that was deposited in herbarium P (Porter P. Lowry II 5059), even though we were unable to find the voucher specimen at MO. Therefore, its phylogenetic position was provided here, following the protocol from our previous study (Aoki et al. 2017).

Hadronic τ Decays as New Physics Probes in the LHC Era

“…Combining dispersive methods [68][69][70] with the lattice results on K → ππ matrix elements [71] we obtain O V−A 6 = −0.0042(13) GeV 6 . Using also an OPE for the vector-tensor correlator [33,72] we find for ω(x) = x n , and using the latest N f = 2 + 1 lattice average for the quark condensate [20], from Refs. [73][74][75][76][77].…”

“…where B 0 = m 2 π /(m u + m d ). We included the SM radiative corrections [17][18][19] and the latest lattice average for the pion decay constant, f π ± = 130.2 (8) MeV (N f = 2 + 1) [20], from Refs. [21][22][23].…”

Calculation of Nucleon Electric Dipole Moments Induced by Quark Chromo-Electric Dipole Moments and the QCD θ-term

“…Nucleon electric dipole moments on a lattice can be calculated as the forward limit of the P, T -odd electric dipole form factors (EDFF) F 3 [2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9],…”

“…Alternative computing methods may have to be employed such as dynamical (imaginary) θ I -term first explored in Ref. [4]. Because nEDM calculations depend on contributions from non-trivial topological sectors, dynamical θ I -term improves importance sampling for the EDM signal by inducing nonzero average topological charge Q = 0.…”

Calculation of the Hadronic Vacuum Polarization Contribution to the Muon Anomalous Magnetic Moment

“…(1) is highly desirable. New experiments at Fermilab (E989) [7] and J-PARC (E34) [8] intend to decrease the experimental uncertainty by a factor of four. First results of the E989 experiment may be available before the end of 2018 [9] such that a reduction in uncertainty of the a HVP LO µ contribution is of timely interest.…”
