Radiation-hard semiconductor detectors for SuperLHC

2005

An option of increasing the luminosity of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN to 10^35 cm^(- 2) s(- 1) has been envisaged to extend the physics reach of the machine. An efficient tracking down to a few centimetres from the interaction point will be required to exploit the physics potential of the upgraded LHC. As a consequence, the semiconductor detectors close to the interaction region will receive severe doses of fast hadron irradiation and the inner tracker detectors will need to survive fast hadron fluences of up to above 1016 cm 2. The CERN-RD50 project ''Development of Radiation Hard Semiconductor Devices for Very High Luminosity Colliders'' has been established in 2002 to explore…

Status of the DØ Detector

2003

During the data-taking period from 1992 to 1996 (Run I), the Tevatron experiments CDF and DO collected about 125pb¯1 of proton-antiproton collision data at center of mass energies of 1.8 TeV. Since then, the Fermilab accelerator complex has been upgraded to provide collisions at 1.96 TeV and an initial design luminosity of 8.6 × 1031cm¯2s¯1. The new data-taking period (Run II) has started in March 2001 and is expected to deliver more than 10fb¯1 by the year 2007. This dataset is the basis for a rich physics program, including precision mass measurements of the W-boson and top-quark as well as the possibility to discover a light Higgs boson[1].

Quantum numbers of theX(3872)state and orbital angular momentum in itsρ0J/ψdecay

2015

Angular correlations in B+→X(3872)K+ decays, with X(3872)→ρ0J/ψ, ρ0→π+π− and J/ψ→μ+μ−, are used to measure orbital angular momentum contributions and to determine the JPC value of the X(3872) meson. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb−1 of proton-proton collisions collected with the LHCb detector. This determination, for the first time performed without assuming a value for the orbital angular momentum, confirms the quantum numbers to be JPC=1++. The X(3872) is found to decay predominantly through S wave and an upper limit of 4% at 95% C.L. is set on the fraction of D wave.

Measurement of the correlation between flow harmonics of different order in lead-lead collisions at sNN=2.76 TeV with the ATLAS detector

2015

Correlations between the elliptic or triangular flow coefficients v(m) (m = 2 or 3) and other flow harmonics v(n) (n = 2 to 5) are measured using root S-NN = 2.76 TeV Pb + Pb collision data collected in 2010 by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 7 mu b(-1). The v(m)-v(n) correlations aremeasured in midrapidity as a function of centrality, and, for events within the same centrality interval, as a function of event ellipticity or triangularity defined in a forward rapidity region. For events within the same centrality interval, v(3) is found to be anticorrelated with v(2) and this anticorrelation is consistent with similar anticorrelations between th…

Hypernuclear Spectroscopy at JLab Hall C

2010

Abstract Since the 1st generation experiment, E89-009, which was successfully carried out as a pilot experiment of (e,e'K+) hypernuclear spectroscopy at JLab Hall C in 2000, precision hypernuclear spectroscopy by the (e,e'K+) reactions made considerable progress. It has evolved to the 2nd generation experiment, E01-011, in which a newly constructed high resolution kaon spectrometer (HKS) was installed and the “Tilt method” was adopted in order to suppress large electromagnetic background and to run with high luminosity. Preliminary high-resolution spectra of 7 Λ He and 28 Λ Al together with that of 12 Λ B that achieved resolution better than 500 keV(FWHM) were obtained. The third generation…

Measurement of theBs0Lifetime in the Flavor-Specific Decay ChannelBs0→Ds−μ+νX

2015

We present an updated measurement of the B-s(0) lifetime using the semileptonic decays B-s(0) -> D-s(-)mu(+)nu X, with D-s(-) -> phi pi(-) and phi -> K+K- (and the charge conjugate process). This measurement uses the full Tevatron Run II sample of proton-antiproton collisions at root s = 1.96 TeV, comprising an integrated luminosity of 10.4 fb(-1). We find a flavor-specific lifetime tau(fs)(B-s(0)) = 1.479 +/- 0.010(stat) +/- 0.021(syst) ps. This technique is also used to determine the B-0 lifetime using the analogous B-0 -> D- mu(+)nu X decay with D- -> phi pi(-) and phi -> K+K-, yielding tau(B-0) = 1.534 +/- 0.019(stat) +/- 0.021(syst) ps. Both measurements are consistent with the current…

Systemic therapy and synergies by combination.

2013

After years of therapeutic nihilism due to the inefficacy of conventional cytotoxic chemotherapy, the multikinase inhibitor sorafenib was the first agent to demonstrate a significant improvement in the survival of patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, survival benefits on sorafenib treatment remain modest in clinical practice and developing more effective systemic therapies is challenging. No other targeted agent or regimen has proven efficacy to improve survival in a phase III trial in the first- or second-line setting, and no standard treatment option currently exists outside of clinical trials for patients with acquired resistance or intolerance to sorafenib. In…

Eine einfache Methode des quantitativen Nachweises der Para-Aminosalicyls�ure im Harn

1951

Mitteilung eines einfachen quantitativen Nachweises der PAS im Urin bei Kranken, die mit diesem Medikament behandelt werden. Auf mit Ehrlich-Reagens prapariertem Filtrierpapier wird PAS-haltiger Urin aufgetropft. Der entstehende Farbniederschlag ist je nach PAS-Gehalt mehr oder weniger gelb bis braun-rot verfarbt. Diese Farbung wird mit selbst angefertigten Testfarbungen verglichen und der PAS-Gehalt in der ausgeschiedenen Urinmenge bestimmt.
