METHODS OF PARTICLE DETECTION FOR HIGH-ENERGY PHYSICS EXPERIMENTS [PDF]
Particle detection instruments may be divided into two classes; devices which see the actual path of the particle, and counting devices which indicate the passage of a particle. Examples of each class are given, the characteristics of each example are tabulated, and the uses for each device are discussed. (D.E.B.)

High-energy physics experiments in space
Abstract The main environmental difficulties related to HEP experimentation on satellites and balloons are described. We review ways how to face these difficulties, analyzing some paradigmatic examples of present and future experiments. Furthermore, the main features of detectors operating outside the terrestrial atmosphere are reported ...

Performance of Calorimetry in ALICE
The ALICE experiment at LHC studies the strong interaction sector of the Standard Model with pp, pA and AA collisions. Within the scope of the physics program, measurements of photons, neutral mesons and jets in ALICE are performed by two electromagnetic

Addendum: Neutrino Mass Hierarchy Determination Using Reactor Antineutrinos [PDF]
We update our study of neutrino mass hierarchy determination using a high statistics reactor electron anti-neutrino experiment in the light of the recent evidences of a relatively large non-zero value of \theta_{13} from the Daya Bay and RENO experiments.

An $ep$ collider based on proton-driven plasma wakefield acceleration [PDF]
Recent simulations have shown that a high-energy proton bunch can excite strong plasma wakefields and accelerate a bunch of electrons to the energy frontier in a single stage of acceleration. This scheme could lead to a future $ep$ collider using the LHC

Speculations on Isolated Lepton Events at HERA
Speculations on mechanisms which might be responsible for events with an isolated high p_T lepton, a hadron jet and missing energy, as observed in the H1 experiment at HERA, are discussed.Comment: LaTeX, 6 pages, 2 figures, presented at the XXXI ...

Grid Computing in High Energy Physics Experiments
The High Energy Physics (HEP) [1] – often called Particle Physics – is one of the research areas where the accomplishment of scientific results is inconceivable without the infrastructure for distributed computing, the Computing Grid. The HEP is a branch of Physics that studies properties of elementary subatomic constituents of matter.

Bent Crystal Design and Characterization for High-Energy Physics Experiments
Bent crystal are widely used as optics for X-rays, but via the phenomenon of planar channeling they may act as waveguide for relativistic charged particles beam as well, outperforming some of the traditional technologies currently employed. A physical description of the phenomenon and the resulting potential for applications in a particle accelerator ...
