Moderate energy ions for high energy density physics experiments

Physics of Plasmas, 2004
This paper gives the results of a preliminary exploration of whether moderate energy ions (≈0.3–3 MeV/amu) could be useful as modest-cost drivers for high energy density physics experiments. It is found that if the target thickness is chosen so that the ion beam enters and then leaves the target in the vicinity of the peak of the dE/dX (stopping power)

Experiments in high energy physics: A brief introduction

2008
A brief description of a “standard” High Energy Physics experiment focussing on what are the main measurements and how they are obtained is herein reported. The historical example of the discovery of neutral currents by the Gargamelle experiment in 1973 is presented to show the long path between the data collection and the final results.

Photomultiplier Counters in High-Energy Physics Experiments

IRE Transactions on Nuclear Science, 1956
Techniques in the use of photomultipliers in high-energy nuclear physics are presented by the description of experiments that have been prominent recently. The applications involve the use of photomultipliers with attendant amplification at the limit of present possibilities of time resolution.

FPGAS in high energy physics experiments at CERN

2008 International Conference on Field Programmable Logic and Applications, 2008
CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, is the worldpsilas largest particle physics centre. It provides state-of-the-art scientific facilities to use in exploring what matter is made of, and what forces hold it together. Observing phenomena at the subatomic level requires extraordinary instruments, particle accelerators and particle ...

Silicon Sensors for Experiments in High Energy Physics

2018
With increasing luminosity of accelerators for experiments in high energy physics the demands on the detectors increase as well. Especially tracking and vertexing detectors made of silicon sensors close to the interaction point need to be equipped with more radiation hard devices.

Demands of future high energy physics experiments

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 1990
Abstract The next generation hadron colliders will create a harsh environment for detectors. Under such conditions the use of semiconductor devices looks promising and an example of a possible compact detector for the SSC is given. However, the use of large quantities of new detectors and electronics would require a substantial involvement of ...

Computer Interfacing for High-Energy Physics Experiments

Annual Review of Nuclear Science, 1975
The intent of this article is to outline the factors that influence the choice or design of the data-handling components, and their organization into systems useful for a class of high-energy physics experiments. The class is the one sometimes described by that rather loose term, ''on-line.'' It includes those experiments in which data are acquired ...

Scintillation Detectors in Experiments on High Energy Physics

2017
Scintillation counters have been serving as one of the main particle detector for more than hundred years. By now a number of scintillation detectors types and detector systems were developed and used widely in high energy physics experiments to detect charged and neutral particles in a large energy range from 1 keV to hundreds of GeV.

Pre-therapeutic Physical Experiments with High Energy Protons

The British Journal of Radiology, 1961
Methods of beam control and dosimetry for radiological work with a 187 MeV proton beam have been described. The results of measurement of absorption and distribution of dose have been reviewed with reference to the possible application of accelerated light atomic nuclei to radiotherapy of tumours and to intracranial radiosurgery.

Strings of Experiments in High-Energy Physics: The Upsilon Experiments

Historical Studies in the Physical and Biological Sciences, 1994
Les grandes decouvertes scientifiques sont souvent le fruit de collaborations scientifiques. La particule upsilon fut ainsi decouverte par plusieurs equipes d'ingenieurs et de chercheurs en physique nucleaire, du Laboratoire National Fermi, entre 1970 et ...
