A comprehensive characterization of Hamamatsu 16-and 64-anode PMTs
NUCL INSTRUM METH A 461:1-3 (2001) 571-573
Abstract:
We are reporting preliminary results of studies of R59000-00-M16 and M64 tubes, manufactured by Hamamatsu Photonics, to he employed by the MINOS neutrino experiment. Our tests focused on anode response uniformity, gain, cross-talk, and linearity for light illuminating PMTs through a 1.2mm diameter fiber. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.

NUCL PHYS B-PROC SUP 98 (2001) 57-64
Abstract:
MINOS is a neutrino experiment which uses a beam of neutrinos from the Fermilab main injector to determine the parameters of possible neutrino oscillations. It consists of two detectors: a near detector to measure the beam composition at the production site and a far detector 730 km away to re-measure the composition and detect any oscillation which may have occurred. MINOS is a tracking calorimeter build from solid plastic scintillators to measure all the neutrino interactions.Ratio of jet cross sections at √s = 630 GeV and 1800 GeV
Physical Review Letters 86:12 (2001) 2523-2528
Abstract:
The inclusive jet cross section in p̄p collisions at √s = 630 GeV was measured. Many uncertainties in the results were observed. Despite a 10% to 15% difference in the absolute magnitude, the dependence of the ratio on jet transverse momentum was very similar for data and theory.Ratio of jet cross sections at square root of s = 630 GeV and 1800 GeV.
Phys Rev Lett 86:12 (2001) 2523-2528
Abstract:
The D0 Collaboration has measured the inclusive jet cross section in barpp collisions at square root of s = 630 GeV. The results for pseudorapidities (eta)<0.5 are combined with our previous results at square root of s = 1800 GeV to form a ratio of cross sections with smaller uncertainties than either individual measurement. Next-to-leading-order QCD predictions show excellent agreement with the measurement at 630 GeV; agreement is also satisfactory for the ratio. Specifically, despite a 10% to 15% difference in the absolute magnitude, the dependence of the ratio on jet transverse momentum is very similar for data and theory.Measurement of the Λc+ Lifetime
