Probing multi-particle unitarity with the Landau equations

Miguel Alexandre Ribeiro Correia, Alexander Zhiboedov, Amit Sever

We consider the 2 -> 2 scattering amplitude of identical massive particles. We identify the Landau curves in the multi-particle region 16m(2)

Post-irradiation examination of refractory metal candidates for antiproton targets at the European Laboratory for Particle Physics (CERN)

Elvis Fornasiere

The AD-target (Antiproton Decelerator Target) is the main antiparticle production element of the CERNâ s (European Organization for Nuclear Research) AD (Antiproton Decelerator) complex. Antiprotons are produced by colliding a pulsed 1.5 * 10^13 ppp (prot ...

Fast simulation of muons produced at the SHiP experiment using Generative Adversarial Networks

Lesya Shchutska, Aurelio Bay, Guido Haefeli, Elena Graverini, Mikhail Chapochnikov, Alexey Boyarsky, Federico Leo Redi, Sun Hee Kim, Maria Elena Stramaglia, Inar Timiryasov

This paper presents a fast approach to simulating muons produced in interactions of the SPS proton beams with the target of the SHiP experiment. The SHIP experiment will be able to search for new long-lived particles produced in a 400 GeV/c SPS proton beam ...

Mitigation of intensity limitation in the CERN SPS using a double RF system

Massimiliano Schwarz, Joël Repond

The Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) at CERN is the injector of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Multi-bunch instabilities limit the intensity of the beam that can be accelerated to 450 GeV in the SPS and transferred to the LHC. Without mitigation measures, ...

A novel approach to Landau damping of transverse collective instabilities in future hadron colliders

Michael Schenk

Transverse collective instabilities induced by the beam-coupling impedance of the accelerator structure lead to beam quality degradation and pose a major limitation to the machine performance. Landau damping, a powerful stabilising mechanism that can be em ...

Measurement of Antiproton Production in p-He Collisions at root S-NN=110 GeV

Olivier Schneider, Aurelio Bay, Guido Haefeli, Christoph Frei, Tatsuya Nakada, Frédéric Blanc, Michel De Cian, Luca Pescatore, François Fleuret, Chitsanu Khurewathanakul

The cross section for prompt antiproton production in collisions of protons with an energy of 6.5 TeV incident on helium nuclei at rest is measured with the LHCb experiment from a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 0.5 nb(-1). The target ...

First implementation of transversely split proton beams in the CERN Proton Synchrotron for the fixed-target physics programme

Guido Sterbini, Cedric Jean-François Hernalsteens, Massimo Giovannozzi

A new extraction technique has been studied at the CERN Proton Synchrotron with a view of using it for the fixed-target physics programme at the Super Proton Synchrotron. The extraction scheme is based on advanced concepts of non-linear beam dynamics: prio ...

Field Quality Dependence on Vacuum Chamber Materials in Quadrupole Magnets

Liesbeth Maria L Vanherpe

In accelerator magnet design, important criteria are the magnetic field distribution and the magnetic field quality. Accelerator magnets are usually designed for the ideal case in which no magnetic material is present in the field region. In practice, howe ...

Measurement of the B-s(o) -> Ds-Ds+ and B-s(o) -> Ds-Ds+ Effective Lifetimes

Olivier Schneider, Aurelio Bay, Yiming Li, Guido Haefeli, Frédéric Blanc, Christoph Frei, Tatsuya Nakada, Julien Rouvinet, Barinjaka Rakotomiaramanana, Michel De Cian

The first measurement of the effective lifetime of the (B) over bar (o)(s) meson in the decay (B) over bar (o)(s) -> D-s(-) D-s(+) is reported using a proton-proton collision data set, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 fb(-1), collected by the ...

Precision Measurement of the Mass and Lifetime of the Xi(-)(b) Baryon

Olivier Schneider, Aurelio Bay, Yiming Li, Guido Haefeli, Frédéric Blanc, Christoph Frei, Tatsuya Nakada, Julien Rouvinet, Barinjaka Rakotomiaramanana, Michel De Cian

We report on measurements of the mass and lifetime of the Xi(-)(b) baryon using about 1800 Xi(-)(b) decays reconstructed in a proton-proton collision data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb(-1) collected by the LHCb experiment. The dec ...
