Title: Belle Physics at Wayne State

Abstract

The major goals of our work on Belle II were to complete our contributions, a 64-channel PIN diode-based radiation monitor, to the precursor detector called Beast II and the electronics for the endcap K-Long/Muon (E-KLM) detector. This was done by Professor Cinabro, Technician Gutierrez, and undergraduate labor supported by US-Japan funds. Professor Bonvicini through US-Japan funds led the development and installation of a beamstrahlung monitor system in the Belle II interaction region. Graduate students Farhat and DiCarlo worked on this. We also worked on charm physics analysis.

  • Experimental work is reported on the following topics: transverse energy production in 10.7-GeV/c/u Au on Au collisions; first results on delta ray production and charged particle multiplicities with the Au beam at 10.7 GeV/c/A; preliminary studies on the feasibility of flow measurement with the E814 participant calorimeter; preliminary results from the E877 telescope; and low-p[sub t] baryon distribution in Si+Al, Pb collisions at the AGS. Then the status of the Hadronic Calorimeter project of AGS Experiment E864 (ECOS--Exotic Composite Object Spectrometer) is reviewed. Next, the same is done for work of the STAR RHIC collaboration (Silicon Vertex Tracker (SVT) projectmore » evolution and development in FY92, SVT software results from 1992, SVT instrumentation, FY93 SVT pion test beam). The instrumentation section deals with the design and installation of a target rapidity telescope for BNL experiment 814/877 and a repair scheme for the E814/E877 participant calorimeter. Finally, the theory part addresses bosonic kinetics: thermalization of mesons and the pion p[sub perpendicular] spectrum in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions and non-equilibrium properties of hadronic mixtures.« less
  • The project involved data analysis of data taken with the Belle detector operating at KEKB accelerator, Japan. In addition commissionin of the Belle II detector, which is destined to replace the Belle detector.
  • This Appendix contains the entire record of the regional hearing conducted in Fort Wayne, Indiana on August 21, 1979. In addition to the transcript of the proceedings (section I), written statements submitted at the hearing are reproduced in section II, beginning at page 108. Written responses to questions and comments received by the Office of Competition after the date of the hearing are included in section III, beginning at page 303 of this Appendix.
  • This is the final report for Grant DAAG-29-78-G-0125, which has been a joint project with the Air Force. Advances in chemical dynamics are not usually achieved by a single experiment but rather by a blend of informations using a variety of techniques. As a consequence, the results of this research project may be classified in four separate categories: (a) preparation of and experiments with electronically excited atoms and molecules; (b) measurements of kinetic energy thresholds for ion-pair production from molecular collisions, with subsequent derivation of molecular binding energies and electron affinities; In experiments of type (a) electronically excited sodium wasmore » used to promote the chemi-ionization reaction with O/sub 2/ and SO/sub 2/. Two photon ionization of Na2 and Li2 was also studied in order to investigate laser selectivity.« less
  • This document describes the envirormental monitoring program at the Wayne Interim Storage Site (WISS) and surrounding area, implementation of the program, and monitoring results for 1991. Environmental monitoring of WISS and surrounding area began in 1984 when Congress added the site to the US Department of Energy's (DOE) Formerly Utilized Sites Remedial Action Program (FUSRAP). FUSRAP is a DOE program to decontaminate or otherwise control sites where residual radioactive materials remain from the early years of the nation's atomic energy program or from commercial operations causing conditions that Congress has authorized DOE to remedy. WISS is a National Priorities Listmore » site. The environmental monitoring program at WISS includes sampling networks for radon and thoron concentrations in air; external gamma radiation exposure; and radium-226, radium-228, thorium-232, and total uranium concentrations in surface water, sediment, and groundwater. Several nonradiological parameters are also measured in groundwater. Monitoring results are compared with applicable Environmental Protection Agency standards, DOE derived concentration guides, dose limits, and other requirements in DOE orders. Environmental standards are established to protect public health and the environment.« less
