Review of jet results from HERA
Acta Physica Polonica B 35:1 (2004) 377-386
Abstract:
Some of the most recent results on jet production at HERA are reviewed. The measurements are confronted with predictions from next-to-leading order Quantum Chromodynamics. In regions where uncertainties are small, the strong coupling, αs, has been extracted. Other topics of current interest are also highlighted.Search for new particles in the two-jet decay channel with the DØ detector

Abstract:
We present the results of a search for the production of new particles decaying into two jets in [Formula Presented]collisions at [Formula Presented] using the DØ 1992–1995 data set corresponding to [Formula Presented] We exclude at the 95% confidence level the production of excited quarks [Formula Presented] with masses below 775 GeV/[Formula Presented] the most restrictive limit to date. We also exclude standard-model-like [Formula Presented][Formula Presented] bosons with masses between 300 and 800 GeV/[Formula Presented](400 and 640 GeV/[Formula Presented] A [Formula Presented]boson with mass [Formula Presented] has been excluded by previous measurements, and our lower limit is therefore the most stringent to date. © 2004 The American Physical Society.Simulation of the CMS prototype silicon pixel sensors and comparison with test beam measurements

Abstract:
Charge collection measurements performed on heavily irradiated p-spray dofz pixel sensors with a grazing angle hadron beam provide a sensitive determination of the electric field within the detectors. The data are compared with a complete charge transport simulation of the sensor which includes signal trapping and charge induction effects. A linearly varying electric field based upon the standard picture of a constant type-inverted effective doping density is inconsistent with the data. A two-trap double junction model implemented in ISE TCAD software can be tuned to produce a doubly-peaked electric field which describes the data reasonably well at two different fluences. The modeled field differs somewhat from previous determinations based upon the transient current technique. The model can also account for the level of signal trapping observed in the data. © 2004 IEEE.A precision measurement of the mass of the top quark
