The PHENIX Muon Trigger Upgrade [PDF]
The PHENIX muon trigger upgrade adds Level-1 trigger detectors to existing forward muon spectrometers and will enhance the ability of the experiment to pursue a rich program of spin physics in polarized proton collisions at sqrt(s)=500GeV. The additional

Uncovering null effects in null fields: the case of homeopathy
Sigurdson, Sainani, and Ioannidis (Journal of Clinical Epidemiology, 2023) discussed homeopathy as a prototypical example of a “null field” where true effects are nonexistent and positive effect sizes reflect bias only. Based on a sample of published randomized placebo-controlled trials, they observed a remarkable effect in favor of homeopathy (Hedges’

Single hadron transverse spin asymmetries from COMPASS [PDF]
Transverse spin physics is an important part of the scientific programme of the COMPASS experiment at CERN. The analysis of the data taken with the target polarized orthogonally to the 160 GeV/c muon beam momentum has allowed to measure for the first ...

Abstract We examine how the evaluation of research studies in economics depends on whether a study yielded a null result. Studies with null results are perceived to be less publishable, of lower quality, less important and less precisely estimated than studies with large and statistically significant results, even when holding constant ...

A new method to analyse pulsar nulling phenomenon [PDF]
Pulsar nulling is a phenomenon of sudden cessation of pulse emission for a number of periods. The nulling fraction was often used to characterize the phenomenon. We propose a new method to analyse pulsar nulling phenomenon, by involving two key parameters, the nulling degree, $\chi$, which is defined as the angle in a rectangular coordinates for the ...

Double Longitudinal Spin Asymmetries of Inclusive Charged Pion Production in Polarized p+p Collisions at 200 GeV [PDF]
A primary goal of the STAR Spin program at RHIC is the measurement of the polarized gluon distribution function $\Delta G$, which can be obtained from a global analysis incorporating measurements of the double spin asymmetry A_{LL} in various final state
