We observe a signal for the doubly charmed baryon Xi(+)(cc) in charged decay mode Xi(+)(cc)-->Lambda(+)(c)K-pi(+) data from SELEX, charm hadroproduction experiment at Fermilab. an excess of 15.9 events over expected background 6.1+/-0.5 events, statistical significance 6.3sigma. The observed mass this state is 3519+/-1 MeV/c(2). Gaussian width 3 MeV/c(2), consistent with resolution; its lifetime less than 33 fs 90% confidence.
Background: A limited number of studies suggest a higher prevalence periodontal disease among individuals with rheumatoid arthritis (RA); however, results have been inconsistent. Further, it is unclear to what extent poor oral hygiene patients RA may account for this association. Methods: The association between and periodontitis was examined in 57 subjects 52 healthy controls, matched by age gender. Oral examination included plaque index (PI), gingival (GI), probing depth (PD), clinical...
We have measured the spin-dependent structure function g1p in inclusive deep-inelastic scattering of polarized muons off protons, kinematic range 0.003<x<0.7 and 1GeV2<Q2<60GeV2. A next-to-leading order QCD analysis is used to evolve g1p(x,Q2) a fixed Q02. The first moment at Q02=10GeV2 Γ1p=0.136±0.013 (stat) ±0.009 (syst) ±0.005 (evol). This result below prediction Ellis-Jaffe sum rule by more than two standard deviations. singlet axial charge a0 found be 0.28±0.16. In Adler-Bardeen...

Anomalous studied, algorithms their identification described. performance several reconstruction calculating compared. An algorithm, called missing-transverse-energy...
We present a new measurement of the spin-dependent structure function g1d deuteron in deep inelastic scattering 190 GeV polarised muons on deuterons, kinematic range 0.003 < x 0.7 and 1 GeV2 Q2 60 GeV2. This is found to be negative at small x. The first moment Γ1d=∫01g1ddx evaluated Q02 = 10 0.034 ± 0.009 (stat.) 0.006 (syst.). value below Ellis-Jaffe sum rule prediction by three standard deviations. Using our earlier determination Γ1p, we obtain Γ1p − Γ1n 0.199 0.038 which agrees with Bjorken rule.
We measured the spin asymmetry in scattering of 100 GeV longitudinally-polarized muons on transversely polarized protons. The was found to be compatible with zero kinematic range 0.006 < x 0.6, 1 Q2 30GeV2. From this result we derive upper limits for virtual photon-proton A2, and structure function g2. For 0.15, A2 is significantly smaller than its positivity limit √R.

We report on the test beam results and calibration methods using high energy electrons, pions muons with CMS forward calorimeter (HF). The HF covers a large pseudorapidity region ( $3\leq|\eta|\leq5$ ), is essential for number of physics channels missing transverse energy.

The CMS-HF Calorimeter is designed to detect forward going particles. Discovery type events are believed produce high energy particles at angles. Hence, it important determine the particle energies accurately by making sure that detectors have right calibration all time. calorimeters quartz fibers as active element. Particle showers caused travelling through calorimeter Cherenkov light in fibers. determined from signals produced PMTs reaching them. Damage radiation during collisions...
Future collider experiments and the upgrade of existing large-scale impose unprece-dented radiation conditions for calorimeter systems, particularly in forward region. The calorimeters envisaged these operating must be sufficiently radiation-hard robust order to perform as expected entire lifetime experiments. In this context, a novel design utilizing quartz-Cherenkov calorimetry, termed Q-Wall has been developed. concept is sampling that alternates between plates absorber (Fe, Pb, W, etc.)...
