First measurements of the Collins and Sivers asymmetries charged hadrons produced in deep-inelastic scattering muons on a transversely polarized 6-LiD target are presented. The data were taken 2002 with COMPASS spectrometer using muon beam CERN SPS at 160 GeV/c. asymmetry turns out to be compatible zero, as does measured within present statistical errors.
The Korea Invisible Mass Search (KIMS) experiment presents new limits on the weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP)-nucleon cross section using data from an exposure of 3409 kg·d taken with low-background CsI(Tl) crystals at Yangyang Underground Laboratory. most stringent limit spin-dependent interaction for a pure proton case is obtained. DAMA signal region both spin-independent and interactions WIMP masses greater than 20 GeV/c2 excluded by single crystal scintillators.Received 3 April...

In non-hadronic axion models, which have a tree-level axion-electron interaction, the Sun produces strong flux by bremsstrahlung, Compton scattering, and axio-recombination, ``BCA processes.'' Based on new calculation of this flux, including for first time we derive limits Yukawa coupling gae axion-photon interaction strength gaγ using CAST phase-I data (vacuum phase). For ma≲10 meV/c2 find < 8.1 × 10−23 GeV−1 at 95% CL. We stress that next-generation helioscope such as proposed IAXO could...
We have searched for 14.4 keV solar axions or more general axion-like particles (ALPs), that may be emitted in the M1 nuclear transition of 57Fe, by using axion-to-photon conversion CERN Axion Solar Telescope (CAST) with evacuated magnet bores (Phase I). From absence excess monoenergetic X-rays when was pointing to Sun, we set model-independent constraints on coupling constants pseudoscalar couple two photons and a nucleon gaγ|−1.19gaN0+gaN3| < 1.36 × 10−16 GeV−1 ma 0.03 eV at 95% confidence level.
Assuming a standard Maxwellian for the WIMP velocity distribution, we obtain bounds from null search results of 59.5 days COSINE-100 data on DAMA/LIBRA-phase2 modulation effect within context non-relativistic effective theory WIMP-nucleus scattering. Here, systematically assume that one operators allowed by Galilean invariance dominates in Hamiltonian spin-1/2 dark matter (DM) particle. We find that, although DAMA/LIBRA and use same sodium-iodide target, comparison two still depends...
The IceCube Neutrino Observatory is a cubic kilometer volume neutrino detector installed in the Antarctic at geographic South Pole. Neutrinos are detected through observation of Cherenkov light from charged relativistic particles generated interactions, using an array 86~strings optical sensor modules. Currently upgrade to preparation. This Upgrade will add seven additional strings with new sensors and calibration devices. A camera system designed for this be study bulk ice properties...
As part of the US "Snowmass" community planning exercise, UHECR has come together to write a comprehensive white paper discussing recent progress and open questions field, as they relate overarching goals particle astroparticle physics. The document outlines strategies recommendations for answering these over next two decades. It also proposes an integrated timeline, which considers expected be achieved by upgraded Pierre Auger Observatory Telescope Array experiment in this decade, need set...
We measured the thermal neutron capture cross section for $^{180}\mathrm{W}$ nucleus. There is only one previous measurement with regard to this section, and it yielded a value of ${30}_{\ensuremath{-}100%}^{+300%}$ b. To determine whether $^{181}\mathrm{W}$ an appropriate low energy neutrino source, should be more precisely estimate production rate inside nuclear reactor. using natural tungsten foil obtained $22.6\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}1.7$
This paper addresses a conceptual study on precise passive target localization approach for substation facilities inspection using unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) under GPS-denied environments. First, cruciform receiver array that provides the range difference (RD) measurements between facility (receiver array) and UAV (transmitter) is devised. Then, to effectively deal with real-time accurate performance issue, our RD-based problem reformulated from viewpoint of linear least-squares...
The results of a search for solar axions from the Korea Invisible Mass Search (KIMS) experiment at Yangyang Underground Laboratory are presented. Low-energy electron-recoil events would be produced by conversion into electrons via axio-electric effect in CsI(Tl) crystals. Using data an exposure 34,596 $\rm kg \cdot days$, we set 90 \% confidence level upper limit on axion-electron coupling, $g_{ae}$, $1.39 \times 10^{-11}$ axion mass less than 1 keV/$\rm c^2$. This is lower indirect neutrino...

The CAST experiment at CERN (European Organization of Nuclear Research) searches for axions from the sun. axion is a pseudoscalar particle that was motivated by theory thirty years ago, with intention to solve strong CP problem.
