Abstract:

We have considered the possibility of using coherent Smith-Purcell radiation for the single-shot determination of the longitudinal profile of 50 fs (FWHM) long electron bunches. A set of three gratings, with periods of 15, 85 and 500 μm, will produce detectable energy in the wavelength region 10-1000μm, which should be adequate for the reconstruction of the bunch shape by the Kramers-Kronig technique. For bunch charges of 109 electrons, or more, the radiated energy can be detected by room temperature pyroelectric detectors.

Abstract:

Measurements of the cross sections for charged current deep inelastic scattering in e+p collisions with a longitudinally polarised positron beam are presented. The measurements are based on a data sample with an integrated luminosity of 132 pb-1 collected with the ZEUS detector at HERA at a centre-of-mass energy of 318 GeV. The total cross section is presented at positive and negative values of the longitudinal polarisation of the positron beams. The single-differential cross-sections dσ/dQ2, dσ/dx and dσ/dy are presented for Q2>200 GeV2. The reduced cross-section σ̃ is presented in the kinematic range 200

Abstract:

We present a measurement of the WW+WZ production cross section observed in a final state consisting of an identified electron or muon, two jets, and missing transverse energy. The measurement is carried out in a data sample corresponding to up to 4.6fb⊃-1 of integrated luminosity at √s=1.96TeV collected by the CDF II detector. Matrix element calculations are used to separate the diboson signal from the large backgrounds. The WW+WZ cross section is measured to be 17.4±3.3pb in agreement with standard model predictions. A fit to the dijet invariant mass spectrum yields a compatible cross section measurement. © 2010 The American Physical Society.

Abstract:

A search for narrow resonances in the dijet mass spectrum is performed using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.9pb⊃-1 collected by the CMS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. Upper limits at the 95% confidence level are presented on the product of the resonance cross section, branching fraction into dijets, and acceptance, separately for decays into quark-quark, quark-gluon, or gluon-gluon pairs. The data exclude new particles predicted in the following models at the 95% confidence level: string resonances, with mass less than 2.50 TeV, excited quarks, with mass less than 1.58 TeV, and axigluons, colorons, and E6 diquarks, in specific mass intervals. This extends previously published limits on these models. Copyright © 2010 American Physical Society.

Abstract:

We report on a search for the flavor-changing neutral-current decay D0→μ⊃+μ⊃- in pp̄ collisions at √s=1.96TeV using 360pb⊃-1 of integrated luminosity collected by the CDF II detector at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. A displaced vertex trigger selects long-lived D0 candidates in the μ⊃+μ⊃-, π⊃+π⊃-, and K⊃-π⊃+ decay modes. We use the Cabibbo-favored D0→K⊃- π⊃+ channel to optimize the selection criteria in an unbiased manner, and the kinematically similar D0→π⊃+π⊃- channel for normalization. We set an upper limit on the branching fraction B(D0→μ⊃+μ⊃-)<2.1×10⊃-7(3.0×10⊃-7) at the 90% (95%) confidence level. © 2010 The American Physical Society.
