Title: Search for Polarization Effects in the Antiproton Production Process

Abstract

For the production of a polarized antiproton beam, various methods have been suggested including the possibility that antiprotons may be produced polarized which will be checked experimentally. The polarization of antiprotons produced under typical conditions for antiproton beam preparation will be measured at the CERN/PS. If the production process creates some polarization, a polarized antiproton beam could be prepared by a rather simple modification of the antiproton beam facility. The detection setup and the expected experimental conditions are described.

Ion colliders

Book Fischer, W

Ion colliders are research tools for high-energy nuclear physics, and are used to test the theory of Quantum Chromo Dynamics (QCD). The collisions of fully stripped high-energy ions create matter of a temperature and density that existed only microseconds after the Big Bang. Ion colliders can reach higher densities and temperatures than fixed target experiments although at a much lower luminosity. The first ion collider was the CERN Intersecting Storage Ring (ISR), which collided light ions [77Asb1, 81Bou1]. The BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) is in operation since 2000 and has collided a number of species at numerous energies.more »« less
Polarization effects in Drell-Yan processes

Journal Article Sissakian, A. N. ; Shevchenko, O. Yu. ; Nagaitsev, A. P. - Physics of Particles and Nuclei

Effects of polarization of hadrons and constituent quarks in Drell-Yan processes are considered; they are one of the most efficient tools for investigation of the quark structure of hadrons. Special attention is paid to such important parton distribution functions as the transversity and T -odd Sivers and Boer—Mulders functions whose study is necessary for understanding the effects connected with the nonzero transverse component of the quark momentum. An original method for direct extraction of transversity and Boer—Mulders function in the proton from the data on Drell—Yan processes, in which a maximum of one hadron in the initial state is transverselymore »« less

Search for Associated Chargino-Neutralino Production in Proton-Antiproton Collisions at 1.96 TeV

Thesis/Dissertation Blumenschein, Ulla

The search for a fundamental theory of matter and forces in the universe has ever since attracted the interest of physicists. The large success of the gauge theories in the description of low-energy phenomena nourishes the hope that gauge symmetries are the clue to a unified description of all fundamental processes at high energy scales. Particle collision experiments of the past decades have probed the structure of matter with increasing resolution. The phenomena observed in collision experiments at current energy scales are described with a large precision by the Standard Model of particle physics. Nevertheless, many open questions in themore »« less

The fermilab polarized proton and antiproton beam

Conference Luehring, F C - AIP Conference Proceedings (American Institute of Physics); (USA)

This paper shows the performance of the polarized proton and antiproton beam at Fermilab during the beamline's first period of operation by the E581/704 collaboration.{sup 1} The beamline uses a correlation between the trajectory of secondary protons (antiprotons) created by lambda (antilambda) decays and their polarization to tag the polarization of individual beam particles. Three topics are covered: the kinematics of the lambda decay that produces polarized protons, the system used to tag the protons, and the actual rates of polarized proton and antiproton production.
