The cornell/purdue TPC
LCWS 2005 - 2005 International Linear Collider Workshop (2005)
Abstract:
A prototype TPC has been completed and commissioned at Cornell for the purpose of evaluating performance and reliability of candidate gas-amplification devices and pad configurations. The TPC has an active area of 10cm square and a drift length of 64cm. The current readout electronics includes 32 channels of 14 bit, 105 MHz 14flash-ADCs. Baseline measurements have been taken with a wire gas-amplification module. The Purdue group has prepared a single GEM readout module. First results using the wire gas-amplification and single GEM are described.POINT-AGAPE pixel lensing survey of M 31

Search for Bs0â†Î+Î- and Bd0â†Î +Î- Decays in pp Collisions with CDF II
Physical Review Letters 95:22 (2005)
Abstract:
We report on a search for Bs0â†Î+Î- and Bd0â†Î+Î- decays in ppÂcollisions at s=1.96TeV using 364â€â€pb-1 of data collected by the CDF II detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. After applying all selection requirements, we observe no candidates inside the Bs0 or Bd0 mass windows. The resulting upper limits on the branching fractions are B(Bs0↠Î+Î-)<1.5Ã-10-7 and B(Bd0â†Î+Î-) <3.9Ã-10-8 at 90% confidence level. © 2005 The American Physical Society.The Growth, Polarization, and Motion of the Radio Afterglow from the Giant Flare from SGR 1806–20
