Prospects of warm dense matter research at HiRadMat facility at CERN using 440 MeV SPS proton beam

Juan Blanco Sancho, Rudiger Schmidt

In this paper we present numerical simulations of heating of a solid copper cylinder by the 440 GeV proton beam delivered by the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) at CERN. The beam is made of 288 proton bunches while each bunch comprises of 1.15.10(11) so tha ...

Zooming into the broad line region of the gravitationally lensed quasar QSO 2237+0305 equivalent to the Einstein Cross III. Determination of the size and structure of the C-IV and C-III] emitting regions using microlensing

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Alexander Patrick Eigenbrod, Rudiger Schmidt

Aims. We aim to use microlensing taking place in the lensed quasar QSO 2237+0305 to study the structure of the broad line region (BLR) and measure the size of the region emitting the C-IV and C-III] lines. ...
