The N/Z dependence of projectile fragmentation at relativistic energies has been studied with the ALADIN forward spectrometer GSI Schwerionen Synchrotron (SIS). Stable and radioactive Sn La beams an incident energy 600 MeV per nucleon have used in order to explore a wide range isotopic compositions. For interpretation data, calculations statistical multifragmentation model for properly chosen ensemble excited sources were performed. parameters ensemble, representing variety spectator nuclei...

Abstract The aggregation kinetics of Mn 2+ ‐cation‐vacancy dipoles in the KCl matrix is examined by ESR and photoluminescence methods at room temperature. In dependence on annealing (aging) conditions four different products appear crystal: luminescent dipole aggregates (no line) formed during short temperature, two non‐luminescent ‐rich microprecipitates (K 4 MnCl 6 2 ) yielding distinct lines, a product not any detectable line. activation energies obtained for emission decay higher...

Abstract A large-volume Time Projection Chamber (TPC) is the main tracking and particle identification (PID) detector of ALICE experiment at CERN LHC. PID in TPC performed via specific energy-loss measurements (d E /d x ), which are derived from average pulse-height distribution ionization generated by charged-particle tracks traversing volume.

The ALICE detector employs sub detectors sensitive to environmental conditions such as pressure and temperature, e.g. the time projection chamber (TPC). A precise reconstruction of particle trajectories requires calibration these detectors. Performing in real HLT improves online potentially renders certain offline steps obsolete, speeding up physics analysis. For LHC Run 3, starting 2020 when data reduction will rely on reconstructed data, becomes a necessity. In order run online, now...
