We describe the status of our effort to realize a first neutrino factory and progress made in understanding problems associated with collection cooling muons towards that end. summarize physics can be done factories as well intense cold beams muons. The potential muon colliders is reviewed, both Higgs Factories compact high energy lepton colliders. timescale research development reviewed latest designs channels including promise ring coolers achieving longitudinal transverse simultaneously....
The international Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment (MICE), which is under construction at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL), will demonstrate principle of ionization cooling as a technique for reduction phase-space volume occupied by muon beam. channels are required Neutrino Factory and Collider. MICE evaluate in detail performance single lattice cell Feasibility Study 2 channel. Beam has been constructed ISIS synchrotron RAL, Step I, it characterized using beam-instrumentation...
Abstract. The Borobudur temple (Indonesia) is one of the greatest Buddhist monuments in world, now listed as an UNESCO World Heritage Site. present state result restorations after being exposed to natural disasters several times. Today there still a growing rate deterioration building stones whose causes need further researches. Monitoring programs, supported at institutional level, have been effectively executed observe problem. paper presents latest efforts digitally document Temple and...
During prehistory fire-setting was the most appropriate technique for exploiting ore deposits. Charcoal fragments found in course of archaeological excavations a small mine called Mauk E area Schwaz/Brixlegg (Tyrol, Austria) are argued to be evidence use this technology. Dendrochronological analyses charcoal samples yielded calendar dates mining activities showing that exploitation lasted approximately one decade late 8th century BC. Dendrological studies show miners utilised stem wood...
The extraction and processing of metal ores, particularly those copper tin, are regarded as among the principal motors Bronze Age society. skills risks mining lie behind weapons, tools symbols that drove political ideological change. But we hear much less about miners themselves their position in Who were these people? Were they rich special, or expendable members a hard-pressed workforce? In this study spotlight moves from adits, slags furnaces to bones seeds, providing sketch dedicated...
The Neutrino Factory is a new concept for an accelerator that produces high-intensity, high-energy beam of electron and muon neutrinos – the ultimate tool neutrino oscillation studies only machine conceived up today could help detect CP violation leptons. basic production from decay muons. Due to their short lifetime, these muons have be accelerated very fast. Several techniques, like high-intenstiy proton linac, high-power targets, ionization cooling or recirculating linacs are required....
Abstract During 2022, a dedicated study was undertaken at CERN, together with the FCC Feasibility Study collaborators, to propose robust configuration for FCC-ee arc half-cell. The proposed layout considers integration aspects of elements in cross section, both booster and collider, as well related powering, cooling ventilation, supporting alignment, optics, instrumentation, handling installation. interfaces between straight sections have also been analysed. This paper summarizes main...
Abstract In 2022, the FCC Feasibility Study management mandated a working group to analyse best configuration of FCC-ee tunnel in arc regions, view construction mock-up half-cell. One main and most challenging goals study, named Arc Half-Cell Mock-up Project, was perform preliminary investigation on principles supporting Short-Straight Sections dipoles half-cells, both for booster collider machines. This is an important input needed choice relative placement with respect collider. The...
This paper reviews 40 years of operation the CERN Proton Synchrotron Booster, from commissioning in early 1970s until today's as injector for Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and one backbone accelerators CERN's fixed-target physics program.
CERN is currently carrying out an ambitious improvement programme of the full LHC Injectors chain in order to enable delivery beams with challenging HL-LHC parameters. The Upgrade project coordinates this massive upgrade program, and covers a new linac (Linac4 project) as well upgrades Proton Synchrotron Booster, Super Synchrotron. heavy ion injector also included, adding Linac3 Low Energy Ion Ring list accelerators concerned. performance objectives roadmap main will be presented, including...
Abstract. The basis of the photogrammetric reconstruction altar at monastery / church are 2 historic photos from around 1920’s as well a 3D documentation terrestrial laser scanning. point cloud scan was starting for an approximate computation interior and exterior orientation that image also contains parts area still do exist. Using projection recent geometry into allowed analysis changes ensemble since time acquisition. Those in situ origin further action. Whether fragments should be used...
This paper presents an approach how to create FAIR data for prehistoric mining archaeology, based on the CIDOC CRM ontology and semantic web standards. The interdisciplinary Research Centre HiMAT (History of activities in Tyrol adjacent areas, University Innsbruck) investigates history from modern times with approach. One projects carried out at research centre is multinational DACH project "Prehistoric copper production eastern central Alps". For a specific geographical region project,...
First laboratory prototypes of Hilbert-transform spectrometers have been developed. To meet the requirements spectroscopy, high-T/sub c/ Josephson junctions with RSJ-like behavior fabricated on twin-free NdGaO/sub 5/ bicrystal substrates. The operation has demonstrated from 60 GHz up to 2.25 THz. first out-of-lab application successfully at TESLA Test Facility linear accelerator DESY (Hamburg). spectra coherent transition electromagnetic radiation electron bunches measured and a bunch length...
