Spectra and correlations of Λ andΛ¯produced in 340-GeV/cΣ−+Cand 260-GeV/cn+Cinteractions

2002

We have measured the production of strange baryons and antibaryons in 340-GeV/c Sigma /sup -/+C and 260-GeV/c n+C interactions. The single x/sub F/ distributions show the expected leading particle effect, and the single p/sub t//sup 2/ distributions show a distinct nonthermal behavior. The x/sub F/ distributions of Lambda - Lambda pairs indicate two different phase space distributions for the two coincident baryons. On the other hand two Lambda 's show identical distributions. Momentum conservation during the formation process may represent a significant source for the observed behavior.

Transverse momentum distributions for exclusive $\varrho^{0}$ muoproduction

1992

We have studied transverse momentum distributions for exclusive rho(0) muoproduction on protons and heavier nuclei at 2 < Q2 < 25 GeV2. The Q2 dependence of the slopes of the p(t)2 and t' distributions is discussed. The influence of the non-exclusive background is investigated. The p(t)2-slope for exclusive events is 4.3 +/- 0.6 +/- 0.7 GeV-2 at large Q2. The p(t)2 spectra are much softer than inclusive p(t)2 spectra of leading hadrons produced in deep inelastic scattering.

Search for the exoticΞ−−(1860)resonance in340GeV∕cΣ−-nucleus interactions

2004

We report on a high statistics search for the ${\ensuremath{\Xi}}^{\ensuremath{-}\ensuremath{-}}(1860)$ resonance in ${\ensuremath{\Sigma}}^{\ensuremath{-}}$-nucleus collisions at $340\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{GeV}∕c$. No evidence for this resonance is found in our data sample which contains 676000 ${\ensuremath{\Xi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ candidates above background. For the decay channel ${\ensuremath{\Xi}}^{\ensuremath{-}\ensuremath{-}}(1860)\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\Xi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ and the kinematic range $0.15l{x}_{F}l0.9$ we find a $3\ensuremath{\sigma}$ upper limit for the production cross section of 3.1 and $3.5\phantom{\rul…

Metal valence states inEu0.7NbO3,EuNbO3,andEu2Nb5O9by TB-LMTO-ASA band-structure calculations and resonant photoemission spectroscopy

1998

The electronic structures of ${\mathrm{Eu}}_{2}{\mathrm{Nb}}_{5}{\mathrm{O}}_{9},$ ${\mathrm{EuNbO}}_{3},$ and ${\mathrm{Eu}}_{0.7}{\mathrm{NbO}}_{3}$ have been investigated by photoemission and total-yield spectroscopy with synchrotron radiation, and in the case of ${\mathrm{Eu}}_{2}{\mathrm{Nb}}_{5}{\mathrm{O}}_{9}$ by tight-binding linear muffin-tin orbital (LMTO) band-structure calculations. A central question for reduced europium niobates is that of the valence of Eu and Nb. Both europium and niobium atoms can appear in different valence states so that various electronic configurations in the title compounds are possible. For this reason, the valence band was studied by the resonant Eu…

Measurement of the proton and deuteron structure functions, F2p and F2d, and of the ratio

1997

The muon-proton and muon-deuteron inclusive deep inelastic scattering cross sections were measured in the kinematic range 0.002 < x < 0.60 and 0.5 < Q(2) < 75 GeV2 at incident muon energies of 90, 120, 200 and 280 GeV. These results are based on the full data set collected by the New Muon Collaboration, including the data taken with a small angle trigger. The extracted values of the structure functions F-2(p) and F-2(d) are in good agreement with those from other experiments. The data cover a sufficient range of y to allow the determination of the ratio of the longitudinally to transversely polarised virtual photon absorption cross sections, R = sigma(L)/sigma(T), for 0.002 < x < 0.12. The …

Quark and gluon distributions and $\alpha_{s}$ from nucleon structure functions at low $x$

1993

Abstract The Q2 dependence of the structure functions F2p and F2d recently measured by the NMC is compared with the predictions of perturbative QCD at next-to-leading order. Good agreement is observed, leading to accurate determinations of the quark and gluon distributions in the range 0.008 ⩽ × ⩽ 0.5. The strong coupling constant is measured from the low x data; the result agrees with previous determinations.

Human Immunodeficiency Virus Continuum of Care in 11 European Union Countries at the End of 2016 Overall and by Key Population: Have We Made Progress?

2020

Abstract Background High uptake of antiretroviral treatment (ART) is essential to reduce human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) transmission and related mortality; however, gaps in care exist. We aimed to construct the continuum of HIV care (CoC) in 2016 in 11 European Union (EU) countries, overall and by key population and sex. To estimate progress toward the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) 90-90-90 target, we compared 2016 to 2013 estimates for the same countries, representing 73% of the population in the region. Methods A CoC with the following 4 stages was constructed: number of people living with HIV (PLHIV); proportion of PLHIV diagnosed; proportion of those diagnosed …

Exclusive ϱ0 and φ muoproduction at large Q2

1994

Abstract Exclusive ϱ 0 and φ muoproduction on deuterium, carbon and calcium has been studied in the kinematic range 2 Q 2 2 and 40 Q 2 dependence of the cross sections, the transverse momentum distributions for the vector mesons, the decay angular distributions and, in the case of the ϱ 0 , nuclear effects. The data for 0 production are compatible with a diffractive mechanism. The distinct features of φ production are a smaller cross section and less steep p t 2 distributions than those for the 0 mesons.

1996

Results are presented for six nuclei from Be to Pb on the structure function ratios F-2(A)/F-2(C)(X) and their A dependence in deep inelastic muon scattering at 200 GeV incident: muon energy. The data cover the kinematic range 0.01 < x < 0.8 with Q(2) ranging from 2 to 70 GeV2. The A dependence of nuclear structure function ratios is parametrised and compared to various models.

Giant negative magnetoresistance in GdI2

2000

Abstract GdI 2 is a layered d 1 compound which is isostructural with and nominally isoelectronic to the superconductors 2H–TaS 2 and 2H–NbSe 2 . GdI 2 orders ferromagnetically at 276(2) K and displays large negative magnetoresistance ∼70% at 7 T close to room temperature. At 10 K the saturation magnetization is 7.33(5) μ B in good agreement with the value predicted from spin polarized band structure calculations.

Mineral nutrients in leaves and bast of pedunculate oak (Quercus Robur L.) at different states of defoliation

1998

Abstract Adult oaks (age > 135a) with different grade of defoliation were investigated for their mineral nutrient contents in leaves and bast. In the leaves of the trees with a defoliation of more than 60 % lower concentrations of almost all nutrients were found. No differences were found between defoliation class 1 (defoliation ≤ 25 %) and defoliation class 2 (defoliation ≤ 45 %). In all defoliation classes the mineral nutrient contents are in the normal range except the contents of magnesium, which is in the range of deficiency in all defoliation classes. The mineral contents in bast showed high concentrations of cadmium, manganese zinc, and aluminum in dead trees, and in the case of cadm…

Precision measurement of the structure function ratiosF 2 He /F 2 D ,F 2 C /F 2 D andF 2 Ca /F 2 D

1991

We present the structure function ratiosF2He/F2D,F2C/F2D andF2Ca/F2D measured in deep inelastic muon-nucleus scattering at an incident muon momentum of 200 GeV. The kinematic range 0.0035<x<0.65 and 0.5<Q2<90 GeV2 is covered. At lowx the three ratios are significantly smaller than unity and the size of the depletion grows with decreasingx and increasing mass numberA. At intermediatex the ratios show an enhancement of about 2% above unity for C/D and Ca/D, possibly less for He/D. There are indications of someQ2 dependence in the Ca/D data. The integrals of the structure function differencesF2A−F2D are discussed.

Characterization of a medium size Xe/TMA TPC instrumented with microbulk Micromegas, using low-energy gamma-rays

2014

NEXT-MM is a general-purpose high pressure (10 bar, $\sim25$ l active volume) Xenon-based TPC, read out in charge mode with an 8 cm $\times$8 cm-segmented 700 cm$^2$ plane (1152 ch) of the latest microbulk-Micromegas technology. It has been recently commissioned at University of Zaragoza as part of the R&D of the NEXT $0\nu\beta\beta$ experiment, although the experiment's first stage is currently being built based on a SiPM/PMT-readout concept relying on electroluminescence. Around 2 million events were collected during the last months, stemming from the low energy $\gamma$-rays emitted by a $^{241}$Am source when interacting with the Xenon gas ($\epsilon$ = 26, 30, 59.5 keV). The localized…

Results of prototype studies for a spaghetti calorimeter

1990

In the framework of the LAA project, prototypes for a new type of calorimeter, intended for the detection of both electromagnetic (e.m.) and hadronic showers, muons and missing energy (e.g. neutrinos) at high-luminosity multi-TeV pp colliders, were tested. The detector consists of scintillating plastic fibres embedded in a lead matrix at a volume ratio 1:4, such as to achieve compensation. The optimization of the construction of the detector modules is described, as well as the performance concerning e.m. shower and muon detection and e/π separation. We used electron, pion and muon beams in the energy range 10–150 GeV for this purpose. For the energy resolution of electrons we found 13%/trE…

Precision measurement of structure function ratios for $^{6}$Li, $^{12}$C and $^{40}$Ca

1992

The structure function ratiosF2C/F2Li,F2Ca/F2Li andF2Ca/F2C were measured in deep inelastic muonnucleus scattering at an incident muon energy of 90 GeV, covering the kinematic range 0.0085<x<0.6 and 0.8<Q2<17GeV2. The sensitivity of the nuclear structure functions to the size and mean density of the target nucleus is discussed.

Giant Negative Magnetoresistance in GdI2: Prediction and Realization

1999

The electronic structure of the layered d1 compound GdI2 has been examined systematically in view of its relation to other layered d1 systems including superconducting and isostructural 2H-TaS2 and 2H-NbSe2. A van Hove type instability is evident in suitable representations of the Fermi surface. The presence of the half-filled and magnetic 4f level should preclude the possibility of superconductivity. Instead GdI2 orders ferromagnetically at 290(5) K and displays large negative magnetoresistance ≈70% at 7 T close to room temperature. This finding provides support to the idea that materials can be searched rationally for interesting properties through high level electronic structure calculat…

Electron-pion discrimination with a scintillating fiber calorimeter

1990

Abstract We report on an experimental study of a variety of techniques for discriminating between (isolated) electrons and pions in a lead and scintillating fiber calorimeter without longitudinal segmentation. Using information from the lateral shower development, from a pre-shower detector, from the time structure of the signals, or from a combination of these we measure pion rejection factors of up to several thousand while maintaining electron efficiencies of 95% or higher.

Measurement of the polarization of $$\Lambda ^0 , \overline \Lambda ^0 , \Sigma ^ + $$ and ?? produced in a ?? beam of 330 GeV/c

1995

The polarization of Lambda0 , AntiLambda0 , Sigma+ and Xi- inclusively produced in Sigma- induced interactions at 330 GeV has been measured in the experiment WA89 at CERN. This is the first measurement of polarization of baryons produced by a hyperon beam. No polarization of AntiLambda is observed, as was also the case in proton beam data. At transverse momenta of about 1~GeV/c Lambda0 and Sigma+ show little polarization, significantly lower than in the proton beam data, while Xi- have a polarization comparable to the polarization of Lambda0 produced in proton beams. The polarization of Lambda0, AntiLambda0, Sigma+ and Xi- inclusively produced in Sigma- induced interactions at 330 GeV has b…
