Search forZγevents with large missing transverse energy inpp¯collisions ats=1.96 TeV
2012
We present the first search for new phenomena in Z gamma final states with large missing transverse energy using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6.2 fb(-1) collected with the D0 experiment in p (p) over bar collisions at root s 1.96 TeV. This signature is predicted in gauge-mediated supersymmetry-breaking models, where the lightest neutralino (chi) over tilde (0)(1) is the next-to-lightest supersymmetric particle and is produced in pairs, possibly through decay from heavier supersymmetric particles. The (chi) over tilde (0)(1) can decay either to a Z boson or a photon and an associated gravitino that escapes detection. We exclude this model at the 95% C.L. for supersymmetr…
Annealing reactions in lead implanted copper
2002
Abstract The terminal solubility of Pb in Cu is extremely low and does not exceed 0.09 at.% at 875 K. Ion implantation of lead ions at 100 keV into Cu single crystals produces metastable solutions. Annealing of the samples causes redistribution of the implanted atoms to equilibrium or near-equilibrium aggregate states which may be reflected in a change in the type of impurity lattice location in the host matrix. We have studied the effect of annealing on single crystalline Cu implanted at temperatures around 375 K with Pb to a concentration of a 1–2 at.%. Rutherford backscattering/channeling analysis and transmission electron microscopy of the as-implanted samples have shown that the implan…
Measurement of the pp¯→W+b+X production cross section at s=1.96 TeV
2013
We present a measurement of the cross section for $W$ boson production in association with at least one {$b$-quark} jet in proton-antiproton collisions. The measurement is made using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6.1\ifb recorded with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron \ppbar Collider at $\sqrt{s}=1.96$ TeV. We measure an inclusive cross section of {$\sigma(W \sim(\to\mu\nu) + b + X) = 1.04 \pm 0.05\thinspace$(stat.) $\pm 0.12 \thinspace$(syst.) pb} and $\sigma(W (\to e\nu) + b + X) = 1.00$ \pm 0.04 \thinspace$(stat.) $\pm 0.12 \thinspace$(syst.) pb in the phase space defined by $p_T^\nu > 25$ GeV, $p_T^{\text{$b$-jet}}>20$ GeV, $|\eta^{\text{$b$-jet}}| 20$ GeV and…
