2020
Ratio of $\Upsilon$(3S) over $\Upsilon$(1S) yields in p--Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$ = 8.16 TeV .The first uncertainty is statistical, while the second is the systematic.

Inclusive Upsilon (1S) Nuclear Modification Factor (Raa) measured in Lead-Lead collisions at sqrt(sNN) = 2.76 TeV in 2.5 < y < 4 and pt > 0 GeV, as a function of the average number of participating nucleons (). Data have been collected in 2011 and the integrated luminosity is ~ 70 inverse microbarn.

Search for Production of Invisible Final States in Single-Photon Decays of Υ(1S)
2010
We search for single-photon decays of the Upsilon(1S) resonance, Upsilon->gamma+invisible, where the invisible state is either a particle of definite mass, such as a light Higgs boson A0, or a pair of dark matter particles, chi chi-bar. Both A0 and chi are assumed to have zero spin. We tag Upsilon(1S) decays with a dipion transition Upsilon(2S)->pi+pi-Upsilon(1S) and look for events with a single energetic photon and significant missing energy. We find no evidence for such processes in the mass range m_A0<=9.2 GeV and m_chi<=4.5 GeV in the sample of 98e6 Upsilon(2S) decays collected with the BaBar detector and set stringent limits on new physics models that contain light dark ma…
Effect of Ion Energy on Charge Loss From Floating Gate Memories
2008
Heavy ions typical of the space environment have energies which exceed by orders of magnitude those available at particle accelerators. In this paper we are irradiating state of the art floating gate memories by using both a medium energy (SIRAD) and a high energy (RADEF) facilities. The corruption of stored information decreases when increasing ion energy. The proposed model deals with the broader track found for higher energy ions. Implications for testing procedures and for reliability considerations are discussed.
Effects of Scaling in SEE and TID Response of High Density NAND Flash Memories
2010
Heavy ion single-event effect (SEE) measurements and total ionizing dose (TID) response for Micron Technology single-level cell 1, 2, 4, 8 Gb commercial NAND flash memory and multi-level cell 8, 16, 32 Gb are reported. The heavy ion measurements were extended down to LET 0.1 MeV-cm2/mg. Scaling effects in SEE and TID response are discussed. Floating gate bit error upset cross section does not scale with feature size at high LETs, except for single-level cell 8 Gb device which is built with 51 nm processes. The threshold LET does not change with scaling. Charge pump TID degradation and standby current improves with scaling. In general, the effect of radiation is either unchanged or is less s…
Low Energy Protons at RADEF - Application to Advanced eSRAMs
2014
A low energy proton facility has been developed at RADEF, Jyvskyl, Finland. The proton energy selection, calibration and dosimetry are described. The first experiment with external users was performed using two memory test vehicles fabricated with 28 nm technology. Examples of single event upset measurements in the test vehicles embedded SRAMs (eSRAMs) as a function of proton energy are provided.
Dynamic Test Methods for COTS SRAMs
2014
International audience; In previous works, we have demonstrated the importance of dynamic mode testing of SRAM components under ionizing radiation. Several types of failures are difficult to expose when the device is tested under static (retention) mode. With the purpose of exploring and defining the most complete testing procedures and reveal the potential hazardous behaviors of SRAM devices, we present novel methods for the dynamic mode radiation testing of SRAMs. The proposed methods are based on different word address accessing schemes and data background: Fast Row, Fast Column, Pseudorandom, Adjacent (Gray) and Inverse Adjacent (Gray). These methods are evaluated by heavy ion and atmos…
Measurement of the chi(b) (3 P) mass and of the relative rate of chi(b1) (1 P) and chi(b2) (1 P) production
2014
The production of $\chi_b$ mesons in proton-proton collisions is studied using a data sample collected by the LHCb detector, at centre-of-mass energies of $\sqrt{s}=7$ and $8$ TeV and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb$^{-1}$. The $\chi_b$ mesons are identified through their decays to $\Upsilon(1S)\gamma$ and $\Upsilon(2S)\gamma$ using photons that converted to $e^+e^-$ pairs in the detector. The $\chi_b(3P)$ meson mass, and the relative prompt production rate of $\chi_{b1}(1P)$ and $\chi_{b2}(1P)$ mesons as a function of the $\Upsilon(1S)$ transverse momentum in the $\chi_b$ rapidity range 2.0< $y$<4.5, are measured. Assuming a mass splitting between the $\chi_{b1}(3P)$ an…
Search for a low-mass scalar Higgs boson decaying to a tau pair in single-photon decays of Y(1S)
2013
We search for a low-mass scalar CP-odd Higgs boson, A(0), produced in the radiative decay of the upsilon resonance and decaying into a tau(+)tau(-) pair: Y(1S) -> gamma A(0). The production of Y(1S) mesons is tagged by Y(2S) -> pi(+)pi(-) Y(1S) transitions, using a sample of (98.3 +/- 0.9) x 10(6) Y(2S) mesons collected by the BABAR detector. We find no evidence for a Higgs boson in the mass range 3: 5 <= m(A)0 <= 9: 2 GeV, and combine these results with our previous search for the tau decays of the light Higgs in radiative Y(3S) decays, setting limits on the coupling of A(0) to the b (b) over bar quarks in the range 0.09-1.9. Our measurements improve the constraints on the parameters of th…
