Measurement of the Spin Structure of the Deuteron in the DIS Region
2005
We present a new measurement of the longitudinal spin asymmetry A_1^d and the spin-dependent structure function g_1^d of the deuteron in the range 1 GeV^2 < Q^2 < 100 GeV^2 and 0.004< x <0.7. The data were obtained by the COMPASS experiment at CERN using a 160 GeV polarised muon beam and a large polarised 6-LiD target. The results are in agreement with those from previous experiments and improve considerably the statistical accuracy in the region 0.004 < x < 0.03.
Measurements of $R^{d}-R^{p}$ and $R^{Ca}-R^{C}$ in deep inelastic muon scattering
1992
Results are presented on the difference in R, the ratio of longitudinally to transversely polarised virtual photon absorption cross sections, for the deuteron and the proton. They are obtained by c ...
Rayleigh scattering of Mössbauer radiation on a myoglobin single crystal
1992
The RSMR technique was used to determine the fraction of radiation which is scattered elastically and inelastically, respectively, into Bragg reflections of a metmyoglobin single crystal. From this measurement 〈x2 1c〉=0.027±0.008 A2 has been determined which is due to long range correlated motions in analogy to acoustic and optic modes in solids.
A precision measurement of charm dimuon production in neutrino interactions from the NOMAD experiment
2013
We present our new measurement of the cross-section for charm dimuon production in neutrino iron interactions based upon the full statistics collected by the NOMAD experiment. After background subtraction we observe 15 344 charm dimuon events, providing the largest sample currently available. The analysis exploits the large inclusive charged current sample - about 9 x 10(6) events after all analysis cuts - and the high resolution NOMAD detector to constrain the total systematic uncertainty on the ratio of charm dimuon to inclusive Charged Current (CC) cross-sections to similar to 2%. We also perform a fit to the NOMAD data to extract the charm production parameters and the strange quark sea…
First microscopic evaluation of spin-dependent WIMP-nucleus scattering off 183W
2021
We perform the first consistent calculation of elastic-scattering and inelastic-scattering structure functions for spin-dependent WIMP-nucleus scattering for 183W in a microscopic nuclear-theory framework. The nuclear structure calculations are performed in the microscopic interacting boson-fermion model (IBFM-2). Our results show that while 183W is very insensitive to spin-dependent elastic scattering, the structure function for inelastic scattering is quite sizable at small momentum transfers. Moreover, to our knowledge 183W provides the first studied case where inelastic scattering can compete with elastic scattering as the primary detection signal. peerReviewed
Measurements of forward proton production with incident protons and charged pions on nuclear targets at the CERN Proton Synchroton
2010
Measurements of the double-differential proton production cross-section d(2 sigma)/dpd Omega in the range of momentum 0.5 GeV/c <= p < 8.0 GeV/c and angle 0.05 rad <= theta < 0.25 rad in collisions of charged pions and protons on beryllium, carbon, aluminium, copper, tin, tantalum, and lead are presented. The data were taken with the large acceptance HARP detector in the T9 beam line of the CERN Proton Synchrotron. Incident particles were identified by an elaborate system of beam detectors and impinged on a target of 5% of a nuclear interaction length. The tracking and identification of the produced particles was performed using the forward spectrometer of the HARP experiment. Results are o…
X-ray thermal-diffuse-scattering study of soft modes in paraelectricBaTiO3
1995
Anomalous x-ray thermal diffuse scattering (TDS) from the paraelectric ${\mathrm{BaTiO}}_{3}$ has been measured as a function of temperature using synchrotron radiation. Sheets of intensities that were previously reported have been confirmed. The origin of the observed TDS intensities is attributed to the soft on-(100) TA modes and overdamped [010${]}_{\mathrm{TO}}$ mode for reduced wave vector qg0.25 and 0.25, respectively. In agreement with the previous neutron inelastic scattering experiment, our results support the notion of the one-dimensionally correlated optic motion of atoms.
Role of statistical fluctuations in the emission ofδelectrons from dissipative heavy-ion collisions
1990
Energy spectra of {delta} electrons emitted in coincidence with deep-inelastic heavy-ion collisions are calculated within a Langevin Monte Carlo description using the surface-friction model. We investigate the effects that wipe out the originally expected oscillatory pattern of the spectra. Emphasis is placed on the role of statistical fluctuations in extracting interaction time distributions of deep-inelastic collisions from the measured {delta}-electron spectra. The calculations are compared to data for U+Au at 8.65 MeV/nucleon.
Dipole amplitude with uncertainty estimate from HERA data and applications in Color Glass Condensate phenomenology
2014
We determine the initial condition for the small-x evolution equation (BK) from the HERA deep inelastic scattering data using a new parametrization that also keeps the unintegrated gluon distribution positive. The obtained dipole amplitude and its uncertainty estimate can be used to compute single inclusive particle production in proton-proton and proton-nucleus collisions. We argue that one has to use consistently the proton transverse area measured in DIS and the total inelastic cross section when calculating the single inclusive cross section. This leads to a midrapidity nuclear modification factor RpA that approaches unity at large transverse momentum, independently of the center-of-mas…
