OPALS: The Oxford plasma accelerator light source project

30th International Free Electron Laser Conference, FEL 2008 (2008) 163-166

Authors:

S Bajlekov, R Bartolini, N Delerue, G Doucas, SM Hooker, K Peach, D Urner, JS Wark

Abstract:

Recent progress in Laser Plasma Accelerators has demonstrated the possibility of generating GeV electron bunches with very interesting beam qualities. It is now conceivable that the further development of such devices could generate beams with emittance, energy spread and peak current suitable for FEL operation in the XUV range with relatively short undulator trains. In this context the OPALS project aims at the construction of a XUV radiation source, driven by a Laser Plasma Accelerator, capable of generating ultrashort fs XUV pulses. Such a source is small enough to be hosted in an academic or industrial institution and could therefore have a major impact on time-resolved science.

Abstract:

Photoproduction of beauty quarks in events with two jets and an electron associated with one of the jets has been studied with the ZEUS detector at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 120pb-1. The fractions of events containing b quarks, and also of events containing c quarks, were extracted from a likelihood fit using variables sensitive to electron identification as well as to semileptonic decays. Total and differential cross sections for beauty and charm production were measured and compared with next-to-leading-order QCD calculations and MonteCarlo models. © 2008 The American Physical Society.

Abstract:

Inclusive KS0KS0 production in ep collisions at the DESY ep collider HERA was studied with the ZEUS detector using an integrated luminosity of 0.5fb-1. Enhancements in the mass spectrum were observed and are attributed to the production of f2(1270)/a20(1320), f2′(1525) and f0(1710). Masses and widths were obtained using a fit which takes into account theoretical predictions based on SU(3) symmetry arguments, and are consistent with the Particle Data Group values. The f0(1710) state, which has a mass consistent with a glueball candidate, was observed with a statistical significance of 5 standard deviations. However, if this state is the same as that seen in γγ→KS0KS0, it is unlikely to be a pure glueball state. © 2008 The American Physical Society.
