The main direction proposed by the community of experts in field laser-driven ion acceleration is to improve particle beam features (maximum energy, charge, emittance, divergence, monochromaticity, shot-to-shot stability) order demonstrate reliable and compact approaches be used for multidisciplinary applications, thus, principle, reducing overall cost a laser-based facility compared conventional accelerator one and, at same time, demonstrating innovative more effective sample irradiation...
We describe how to use ZFITTER, a program based on semi-analytical approach fermion pair production in e+e- annihilation and Bhabha scattering. A flexible treatment of complete ${\cal O}(α)$ QED corrections, also including higher orders, allows for three calculational {\bf chains} with different realistic sets restrictions the photon phase space. {\tt ZFITTER} consists several branches} varying assumptions underlying hard scattering process. One includes weak loop corrections resummation...
We present a discovery and observation of an extraordinarily bright prompt optical emission the GRB 060117 obtained by wide-field camera atop robotic telescope FRAM Pierre Auger Observatory from 2 to 10 minutes after GRB. found rapid average temporal flux decay alpha = -1.7 +- 0.1 peak brightness R 10.1 mag. Later observations other instruments set strong limit on radio transient fluxes, unveiling unexpectedly further decay. interpretation featuring relatively steep electron-distribution...
A new concept for the direct measurement of muons in air showers is presented. The based on resistive plate chambers (RPCs), which can directly measure with very good space and time resolution. muon detector shielded by placing it under another able to absorb electromagnetic component such as a water-Cherenkov detector, commonly used shower arrays. combination two detectors single, compact unit provides unique that opens rich possibilities study showers.
We report on the technological commissioning of Laser–Plasma Ion Accelerator section ELIMAIA user beamline at ELI Beamlines facility in Czech Republic. The high-peak, high-average power L3-HAPLS laser system was used with an energy ~10 J and pulse duration ~30 fs target, both single-pulse high repetition-rate (~0.5 Hz) mode. tightly focused to reach ultrahigh intensity target (~1021 W/cm2) sustain such laser–plasma interaction regime during operations. beam, ion emission were monitored a...
FRAM - F/(Ph)otometric Robotic Atmospheric Monitor is the latest addition to atmospheric monitoring instruments of Pierre Auger Observatory. An optical telescope equipped with CCD camera and photometer, it automatically observes a set selected standard stars calibrated terrestrial source. Primarily, wavelength dependence attenuation derived comparison between its vertical values (for stars) horizontal source) made. Further, integral aerosol depth can be obtained. A secondary program...
A silicon pixel detector, developed in RD19, and consisting of 4 planes, /spl sim/30 cm/sup 2/ each, is operating for the first time lead ion experiment WA97 at CERN. The 288 CMOS readout chips are bump-bonded to 48 Si detector matrices, assembled 8 identical arrays. total number cells nearly 300000 each cell, 75 mu/m/spl times/500 mu/m, contains a complete signal processing chain. Overall dead area less than 3%.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"...
