Classical and quantum brane cosmology

AIP CONF PROC 555 (2001) 31-49

Abstract:

The first part of this lecture quickly touches upon some important but infrequently discussed issues in large extra dimension and warped extra dimension scenarios, with particular reference to effects in the early universe. The second part discusses a modification and extension of an earlier proposal by Brown and Teitelboim to relax the effective cosmological term by nucleation of fundamental membranes.

An aging study of double GEMs in Ar-CO2

IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium and Medical Imaging Conference 1 (2000)

Abstract:

An aging study was performed using double OEMs and a printed circuit readout board (PCB) with an intense X-ray source in an ultra clean Argon-CO2 gas environment. The detector was irradiated continuously for about 1000 hours without interruption until a large amount of charge was accumulated. A single-wire chamber served as a monitoring device to check the beam and ambient conditions and gas chromatography was used to ensure no hydrocarbon materials were present in the gas mixture. The detector could withstand more than 25 mC/mm2 with only a slight sign of aging and the charge accumulated is presumably sufficient to conduct large-scale and long-term experiments in intense radiation fields.
