Who Cares about Particle Physics?: Making Sense of the Higgs Boson, the Large Hadron Collider, and Cern
ISBN: 9780198783244 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. CERN, the European Laboratory for particle physics, regularly makes the news. What kind of research happens at this international laboratory and how does it impact people's daily lives? Why is the discovery of the Higgs boson so important? Particle physics describes all matter found on Earth, in stars and all galaxies but it also tries to go beyond what is known to describe dark matter, a form of matter five times more prevalent than the known, regular matter. How do we know this mysterious dark matter exists and is there a chance it will be discovered soon? About sixty countries contributed...

Searches for Cp Violation in Charmed Meson Decays: A Study of D+ → K - K+ ∏+ at the Lhcb Experiment
ISBN: 9783319070667 / Angielski / Twarda / 158 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Our current understanding of the fundamental building blocks of the Universe, summarised by the Standard Model of particle physics, is incomplete. For example, it fails to explain why we do not see equal, or almost equal, numbers of particles and their antiparticle partners. To explain this asymmetry requires, among other effects, a mechanism known as charge-parity (CP) violation that causes differences between the rates at which particles and antiparticles decay. CP violation is seen in systems containing bottom and strange quarks, but not in those with up, charm or top quarks. This thesis...

Electroweak Symmetry Breaking: By Dynamically Generated Masses of Quarks and Leptons
ISBN: 9783319070728 / Angielski / Twarda / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. With this thesis the author contributes to the development of a non-mainstream but long-standing approach to electroweak symmetry breaking based on an analogy with superconductivity. Electroweak symmetry breaking is assumed to be caused by dynamically generated masses of typical fermions, i.e., of quarks and leptons, which in turn assumes a new dynamics between quarks and leptons. Primarily it is designed to generate fermion masses and electroweak symmetry breaking is an automatic consequence. After the summary of the topic, the first main part of the thesis addresses the question as...

Laser Assisted Nuclear Decay Spectroscopy: A New Method for Studying Neutron-Deficient Francium Isotopes
ISBN: 9783319071114 / Angielski / Twarda / 131 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This work details an application of collinear resonance ionization spectroscopy for the separation of short-lived isomeric states and their subsequent study with decay spectroscopy. It reports the successful construction of a novel decay spectroscopy apparatus that can operate at pressures below 1 x 10 DEGREES-9 mbar. The method is demonstrated by separating the nuclear ground and isomeric states of 204Fr and performing alpha-decay spectroscopy. An equivalent mass spectrometer would require 4.6 million times as much resolution to achieve the same result. This work unambiguously confirms the...

Although the fission of heavy nuclei was discovered over 75 years ago, many problems and questions still remain to be addressed and answered. The reader will be presented with an old, but persistent problem of this field: The contradiction between Prompt Fission Neutron (PFN) spectra measured with differential (microscopic) experiments and integral (macroscopic and benchmark) experiments (the Micro-Macro problem). The difference in average energy is rather small 3% but it is stable and we cannot explain the difference due to experimental uncertainties. Can we measure the PFN spectrum with...

Third Generation Susy and T¯t +Z Production: Searches Using the Atlas Detector at the Cern Large Hadron Collider
ISBN: 9783319071909 / Angielski / Twarda / 178 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This thesis describes searches for new particles predicted by the super symmetry (SUSY) theory, a theory extending beyond the current Standard Model of particle physics, using the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The thesis focuses on searches for stop and sbottom squarks, the SUSY partners of the top and bottom quarks, which are expected to be lighter than the partners of the first and second generation quarks and therefore good candidates for the first evidence of SUSY. It describes novel techniques for estimating and rejecting the Standard-Model backgrounds to searches for...

Measurement of the neutrino velocity with the OPERA detector
ISBN: 9783639716375 / Angielski / Miękka / 124 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book presents one of the latest measurements (2012 May) of the neutrino velocity performed with the OPERA detector in the CNGS beam. This analysis is different from the previous ones for two main factors. From the CERN side, it uses a dedicated bunched beam instead of the standard high intensity OPERA beam, which allows a better time distribution of the events; while at the LNGS the analysis has been performed using a a dedicated time measurement based on the RPC sub-detector, which is partially independent from the standard OPERA timing system. The obtained result is the one with...

Axisymmetric Equilibrium and Stability Analysis in Alcator C-Mod
ISBN: 9783659532801 / Angielski / Miękka / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The vertical position of elongated tokamak plasmas is unstable on the time scale of the eddy currents in the axisymmetric conducting structures. In the absence of feedback control, the plasma would drift vertically and quench on the wall, a situation known as Vertical Displacement Event (VDE), with serious consequences for machine integrity. As tokamaks approach reactor regimes, VDEs cannot be tolerated: vertical feedback control must be robust against system uncertainty and the occurrence of noise and disturbances. At the same time, adaptive routines should be in place to handle unexpected...

A Theory of Scattering for Quasifree Particles
ISBN: 9789814612067 / Angielski / Twarda / 104 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this book, the author presents the theory of quasifree quantum fields and argues that they could provide non-zero scattering for some particles. The free-field representation of the quantised transverse electromagnetic field is not closed in the weak*-topology. Its closure contains soliton-anti-soliton pairs as limits of two-photon states as time goes to infinity, and the overlap probability can be computed using Uhlmann's prescription. There are no free parameters: the probability is determined with no requirement to specify any coupling constant. All cases of the Shale transforms...
