The betatron squeeze allows to increase the luminosity of a collider by reducing the β function at the interaction points. This operation has shown to be very critical in pre- vious colliders. In this state of mind, the squeezing was performed extremely sa ...
Bent-crystal channeling is a technique with a potential to increase beam-halo collimation efficiency in high-energy colliders. First measurements at the Tevatron in 2005 have shown that using a thin silicon crystal to deflect the 1-TeV proton beam halo ont ...
In order to achieve the high luminosity expected from the Large Hadron Collider, the beta function at the interaction points must be minimised. As the aperture in the surroundings of the interaction points become smaller and smaller with decreasing beta fu ...
A new area in particle physics has begun with the start of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN at the end of 2009, which collides protons at energies never reached before. To detect the products of the collisions, four main experiments are located arou ...
Accelerators can be used for hadrontherapy, a cancer treatment in which the patient is irradiated with hadron beams. For this purpose, the Italian foundation TERA proposes the “cyclinac”, composed of a high-frequency linac which boosts the hadrons accelera ...
High-energy particle physics is going through a crucial moment of its history, one in which it can finally aspire to give a precise answer to some of the fundamental questions it has been conceived for. On the one side, the theoretical picture describing t ...
We present a search for lepton-flavor-violating τ decays into three leptons (electrons or muons) using 782 fb-1 of data collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+ e- collider. No evidence for these decays is observed and we set 90% ...
The LHCb experiment is one of the four main experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. The LHCb detector is a one-arm spectrometer dedicated to precise measurements of the CP-violation and studies or rare b-hadron decays. The centre of mass en ...
A systematic approach for a model independent description of phenomenology at the LHC is presented. The most general linear interaction of scalars and fermions with pairs of standard model fields is considered at the renormalizable level. Searches for the ...
We classify all possible new U(1)(Y) circle times SU(2)(L) circle times SU(3)(c) multiplets that can couple to pairs of SM particles. Assuming that production of such new particles is dominated by their gauge interactions we study their signals at LHC, fin ...
