Forward-jet production in deep inelastic ep scattering at HERA
European Physical Journal C 52:3 (2007) 515-530
Abstract:
Forward jet cross sections have been measured in neutral current deep inelastic scattering at low Bjorken-x with the ZEUS detector at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 81.8 pb-1. Measurements are presented for inclusive forward jets as well as for forward jets accompanied by a dijet system. The explored phase space, with jet pseudorapidity up to 4.3 is expected to be particularly sensitive to the dynamics of QCD parton evolution at low x. The measurements are compared to fixed-order QCD calculations and to leading-order parton-shower Monte Carlo models. © 2007 Springer-Verlag / Società Italiana di Fisica.The design and performance of the ZEUS micro vertex detector

Abstract:
In order to extend the tracking acceptance, to improve the primary and secondary vertex reconstruction and thus enhancing the tagging capabilities for short lived particles, the ZEUS experiment at the HERA Collider at DESY installed a silicon strip vertex detector. The barrel part of the detector is a 63 cm long cylinder with silicon sensors arranged around an elliptical beampipe. The forward part consists of four circular shaped disks. In total just over 200k channels are read out using 2.9 m2 of silicon. In this report a detailed overview of the design and construction of the detector is given and the performance of the completed system is reviewed. © 2007 Elsevier B.V.

Abstract:
We present results on WIMP dark matter interaction, obtained using cryogenic phonon-scintillation detectors. The targets are CaWO4 scintillating crystals with phonon sensors, while scintillation is detected with an associated cryogenic light detector. The combination of phonon and light signals leads to a strong suppression of nonnuclear recoil backgrounds. Results obtained before the upgrade of CRESST are presented and a status report on the upgrade itself is given.EURECA - the European future of dark matter searches with cryogenic detectors
