Das Ziel dieser Masterarbeit ist die Auslegung des Kickers für den Bunch-Kompressor des FRANZ-Projektes. Anhand eines Modells wurden die verschiedenen Möglichkeiten der Einkopplung sowie das Feld zwischen den Kondensatorplatten bereits untersucht. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird der Kicker mit Hilfe des Programms CST Microwave Studio erstellt und optimiert, sodass er nach Abschluss der Untersuchungen in die Fertigung gehen kann. Dabei ist der erste Schwerpunkt der Untersuchungen die Auslegung und Optimierung der Kondensatorplatten, die für die Auslenkung der Mikro-Bunche im FRANZ-Projekt verantwortlich sind. Zu Beginn der Masterarbeit gab es gezielte Winkelverteilungen, die der Kicker im Rahmen des FRANZ-Projektes erreichen sollte. Nachdem ein Erreichen dieser Werte nur bedingt möglich war, wurden verschiedene Abschnitte des FRANZ-Projektes neu überdacht und die Anforderungen an den Kicker änderten sich dadurch grundlegend. Aus diesem Grund wurde der Kicker zu Beginn der Arbeit für eine Frequenz von 5 MHz ausgelegt, wohingegen er im Rahmen der neuen Anforderungen für eine Resonanzfrequenz von 2,57 MHz ausgelegt wurde. Die Untersuchung der optimalen Resonanzfrequenz für die Anforderungen des Kickers stellt den zweiten Schwerpunkt dieser Arbeit dar.
Die vorliegende Arbeit handelt von der Entwicklung, dem Bau, den Zwischenmessungen sowie den abschließenden Tests unter kryogenen Bedingungen einer neuartigen, supraleitenden CH-Struktur für Strahlbetrieb mit hoher Strahllast. Diese Struktur setzt das Konzept des erfolgreich getesteten 19-zelligen 360 MHz CH-Prototypen fort, der einen weltweiten Spitzenwert in Bezug auf Beschleunigungsspannung im Niederenergiesegment erreichte, jedoch wurden einige Aspekte weiterentwickelt bzw. den neuen Rahmenbedingungen angepasst. Bei dem neuen Resonator wurde der Schwerpunkt auf ein kompaktes Design, effektives Tuning, leichte Präparationsmöglichkeiten und auf den Einsatz eines Leistungskopplers für Strahlbetrieb gelegt. Die Resonatorgeometrie besteht aus sieben Beschleunigungszellen, wird bei 325 MHz betrieben und das Geschwindigkeitsprofil ist auf eine Teilcheneingangsenergie von 11.4 MeV/u ausgelegt. Veränderungen liegen in der um 90° gedrehten Stützengeometrie vor, um Platz für Tuner und Kopplerflansche zu gewährleisten, und in der Verwendung von schrägen Stützen am Resonatorein- und ausgang zur Verkürzung der Tanklänge und Erzielung eines flachen Feldverlaufs. Weiterhin wurden pro Tankdeckel zwei zusätzliche Spülflansche für die chemische Präparation sowie für die Hochdruckspüle mit hochreinem Wasser hinzugefügt. Das Tuning der Kavität erfolgt über einen neuartigen Ansatz, indem zwei bewegliche Balgtuner in das Resonatorvolumen eingebracht werden und extern über eine Tunerstange ausgelenkt werden können. Der Antrieb der Stange soll im späteren Betrieb wahlweise über einen Schrittmotor oder einen Piezoaktor stattfinden. Für ein langsames/ statisches Tuning kann der Schrittmotor den Tuner im Bereich +/- 1 mm auslenken, um größeren Frequenzabweichungen in der Größenordnung 100 kHz nach dem Abkühlen entgegenzuwirken. Das schnelle Tuning im niedrigen kHz-Bereich wird von einem Piezoaktor übernommen, welcher den Balg um einige µm bewegen kann, um Microphonics oder Lorentz-Force-Detuning zu kompensieren. Der Resonator wird von einem aus Titan bestehendem Heliummantel umgeben, wodurch ein geschlossener Heliumkreislauf gebildet wird.
Derzeit befinden sich mehrere Projekte in der Planung bzw. im Bau, welche auf eine derartige Resonatorgeometrie zurückgreifen könnten. An der GSI basiert der Hauptteil des zukünftigen cw LINAC auf supraleitenden CH-Strukturen, um einen Strahl für die Synthese neuer, superschwerer Elemente zu liefern. Weiterhin könnte ein Upgrade des vorhandenen GSI UNILAC durch den Einsatz von supraleitenden CH-Resonatoren gestaltet werden. Zudem besteht die Möglichkeit, die bisherige Alvarez-Sektion des UNILAC alternativ durch eine kompakte, supraleitende CH-Sektion zu realisieren. Ebenfalls sollen die beiden parallelbetriebenen Injektorsektionen des MYRRHA-Projektes durch den Einsatz von supraleitenden CH-Strukturen erfolgen.
Die Coltrims-Methode hat sich seit den 1990er Jahren als gutes experimentelles Instrument in der Atomphysik und darüberhinaus etabliert. Sie beruht darauf, dass die bei einer Reaktion entstehenden Fragmente mit ortssensitiven Detektoren nachgewiesen werden. Die Signale der Detektoren wurden bisher mit einem analogen Vorverstärker verstärkt und dann mit Hilfe eines Constant Fraction Discriminators in digitale Signale umgewandelt. Die Zeitinformation der digitalen Signale wurden von Time to Digital Convertern aufgenommen und im Computer gespeichert. Mit dieser Form der Auslese und Analyse der von den Detektoren stammenden Signale können nur einige wenige Fragmente nachgewiesen werden. Die Lösung dieses Problems besteht also darin, eine neue Variante für die Auslese und Analyse der Signale zu finden. Diese wurde in der Verwendung eines Transientenrekorders gefunden. Anstatt nur die Zeitinformation zu speichern, nimmt dieser die gesamte Signalform der Detektoren auf. Die Aufgabe, die in dieser Arbeit bearbeitet werden sollte, bestand darin, eine Software zu entwickeln, mit deren Hilfe der Transientenrekorder gesteuert werden kann. Auch sollte ein Weg gefunden werden nur die für das Experiment notwendigen Informationen des aufgenommenen Zeitfensters zu speichern. Des Weiteren sollten Methoden aufgezeigt werden, wie die aufgenommen Signale untersucht und deren Parameter extrahiert werden können. Diese Methoden wurden dann an realen Signalen getestet. Nachdem im ersten Kapitel die Motivation zu dieser Arbeit und einige theoretische Hintergründe vorgestellt werden, wird im zweiten Kapitel auf verschiedene Methoden der Signalanalyse eingegangen. Der Augenmerk liegt dabei sowohl auf Einzel- sowie Doppelsignalanalyse. Die Güte der vorgestellten Algorithmen wird mit Hilfe von künstlichen Signalen ermittelt. Es zeigt sich, dass die beste Methode die zeitliche Position der Einzelsignale zu finden, der Pulsfit ist. Mit dieser Methode kann eine Auflösung von etwa 50 ps erzielt werden. Bei der Betrachtung der Doppelsignale stellt sich heraus, dass der minimale Abstand zwischen den Signalen 5 ns bis 7 ns betragen muss. Das dritte Kapitel zeigt eine Anwendung des neuen Aufnahmesystems. Dort werden die physikalischen Ergebnisse, die mit Hilfe des neuen Systems gewonnen werden konnten, mit einem herkömmlichen Aufnahmesystem verglichen. Aufgrund der geringeren Totzeit des neuen Aufnahmesystems konnte mehr Statistik gewonnen werden. Der dadurch gewonnene Vorteil zeigt sich deutlich in den Ergebnissen, bei denen eine vierfach Koinzidenz verlangt wird. Bei dem nächsten Kapitel beschriebenen Experiment mussten sehr viele Fragmente nachgewiesen werden. Hierzu wird ein weiteres Kriterium neben der Zeitsumme vorgestellt mit dem die Anodensignale einander zugewiesen werden können. Die in diesem Kapitel gezeigten physikalischen Ergebnisse zeigen die Impulsverteilungen für Neon und Helium für unterschiedliche Lichtintensitäten bzw. Ionisationsprozesse. Im darauf folgenden Kapitel wird beschrieben, wie die neue Aufnahmemethode dazu verwendet werden kann, die von den Detektoren kommenden Signale genauer zu analysieren. Die physikalische Reaktion führte dazu, dass von dem Detektor hauptsächlich Doppelsignale aufgenommen wurden. Dies erlaubt die Untersuchung der Doppelsignalalgorithmen an realen Signalen. Hierbei zeigte sich, dass die Totzeit bei realen Signalen vergleichbar mit der Totzeit bei künstlichen Signalen ist. Die Algorithmen können bei Abständen der Einzelsignale von weniger als 10 ns die Position der Signale nicht mehr genau bestimmen. Anhand der Pulshöhenverteilung kann gezeigt werden, dass der verwendete Detektor in der Mitte eine geringere Nachweiseffizienz hatte. Im letzten Kapitel wird die Güte der verschiedenen Methoden der Einzelsignalanalyse anhand von realen Signalen überprüft. Dabei wurden Signale desselben Detektors mit unterschiedlichen Vorverstärkern verstärkt. Die beiden Vorverstärker unterschieden sich in ihrer Bandbreitenbegrenzung. Die Daten wurden mit einem Transientenrekorder mit 2 GS aufgenommen. Es wird gezeigt wie diese Daten umgewandelt werden können, so dass sie einem System mit nur 1 GS entsprechen. Dies erlaubt es die Güte der Methoden für Signale eines Systems mit 2 GS mit denen eines Systems mit 1 GS zu vergleichen. Es zeigt sich in der Pulshöhenverteilung, dass die Signale des stärker bandbreitenbegrenzten Vorverstärkers vergleichbar mit den künstlichen Signalen sind. Die Signale des weniger stark bandbreitenbegrenzten Vorverstärkers weisen eine zu starke Abhängigkeit ihrer Breite von der Pulshöhe auf. Aus diesem Grund sind die Ergebnisse des letzt genannten Vorverstärkers abweichend von den Ergebnissen mit den künstlichen Signalen. Bei diesem Vorverstärker zeigte der einfache Constant Fraction Algorithmus die beste Auflösung.
In dieser Arbeit wurde die automatisierte Separation von Heliummono-, -di- und -trimeren beschrieben. Unter Nutzung ihrer unterschiedlichen De-Broglie-Wellenlängen wurden die verschiedenen Fraktionen mit einem Nanogitter getrennt. Zunächst wurden einige physikalische Grundlagen zu den genannten Atom- bzw. Molekülspezies, der hier auftretenden Bindungsform der Van-der-Waals-Bindung und insbesondere zur Materiewellenbeugung gelegt. Anschließend wurde der Versuchsaufbau dargestellt.
Bei der Durchführung wurden zunächst die drei jeweils vorhandenen Gitter und Spalte zu je einer Messung kombiniert und die beste Kombination für die weiteren Messungen ausgewählt. Das Experiment wurde weitergeführt, indem für verschiedene Temperaturen und Quelldrücke jeweils ein Beugungsspektrum von der für alle Heliumteilchen identischen nullten Ordnung bis zur ersten Ordnung der Heliummonomere aufgenommen wurde.
In der Auswertung wurde die Detektionswahrscheinlichkeit auf rund 37 % abgeschätzt. Weiterhin wurden die Ereignisse in den ersten Maxima der einzelnen Heliumfraktionen gezählt und so unter Verwendung der Detektionswahrscheinlichkeit molare Konzentrationen für das Heliumdi- und -trimer berechnet. Dabei wurden Anteile von bis zu 0,45 % für das Heliumdimer und 4,2 % für das Heliumtrimer erreicht. Diese Molanteile und ihre Abhängigkeit von Druck und Temperatur stimmen qualitativ gut mit der Literatur überein, quantitativ lassen sie sich u. a. wegen abweichender Nachweismethoden kaum vergleichen.
Anschließend wurde der Abstand von Düse und Skimmer variiert mit dem Ergebnis, daß eine Veränderung im betrachteten Bereich keinen nennenswerten Einfluß auf die Bildungsraten von Di- und Trimeren hat. Weiterhin wurde die auf zweierlei Weise bstimmbare Geschwindigkeit der Heliumteilchen im Gasjet ermittelt und verglichen.
Die beiden Geschwindigkeiten weichen lediglich im unteren Temperaturbereich signifikant voneinander ab, wofür plausible Erklärungsansätze dargelegt wurden.
Die Größe der Quellregion der betrachteten Heliumcluster wurde unter geometrischen Gesichtspunkten und unter Extrapolation der für verschiedene Spaltbreiten gemessenen Maximumsbreiten untersucht. Im Ergebnis wird die Quellbreite zu 58,5 μm abgeschätzt.
Die Automatisierung des Aufbaus erlaubte eine Vielzahl von systematischen Messungen, die ohne diese Automatisierung sehr zeitaufwendig gewesen wären. Insbesondere wurden in kurzer Zeit - wie zuvor geschildert - die Beugungsmuster von drei Gittern in Kombination mit je drei verschiedenen Kollimationspalten sowie die Abhängigkeit der Heliumdimer- und -trimerbildung von Temperatur, Druck und Abstand von Düse und Skimmer untersucht. Die Automatisierung erlaubt für zukünftige Messungen, z. B. in Strahlzeiten am Freien Elektronenlaser FLASH, jeweils in situ die Clusterbildung zu untersuchen. Möge das beschriebene Experiment nicht nur diese, sondern auch viele weitere Messungen beschleunigen helfen und so zum gesellschaftlichen Erkenntnisgewinn beitragen!
Due to the massive parallel operation modes at GSI accelerators, a lot of accelerator setup and re-adjustment has to be made by operators during a beam time. This is typically done manually using potentiometers and is very time-consuming. With the FAIR project the complexity of the accelerator facility increases further and for efficiency reasons it is recommended to establish a high level of automation for future operation. Modern Accelerator Control Systems allow a fast access to both, accelerator settings and beam diagnostics data. This provides the opportunity to implement algorithms for automated adjustment of e.g. magnet settings to maximize transmission and optimize required beam parameters. The fast-switching magnets in GSI-beamlines are an optimal basis for an automatic exploration of the parameter-space. The optimization of the parameters for the SIS18 multi-turn-injection using a genetic algorithm has already been simulated*. The first results of our automatized online parameter optimization at the CRYRING@ESR injector are presented here.
We present a model for the autonomous and simultaneous learning of active binocular and motion vision. The model is based on the Active Efficient Coding (AEC) framework, a recent generalization of classic efficient coding theories to active perception. The model learns how to efficiently encode the incoming visual signals generated by an object moving in 3-D through sparse coding. Simultaneously, it learns how to produce eye movements that further improve the efficiency of the sensory coding. This learning is driven by an intrinsic motivation to maximize the system's coding efficiency. We test our approach on the humanoid robot iCub using simulations. The model demonstrates self-calibration of accurate object fixation and tracking of moving objects. Our results show that the model keeps improving until it hits physical constraints such as camera or motor resolution, or limits on its internal coding capacity. Furthermore, we show that the emerging sensory tuning properties are in line with results on disparity, motion, and motion-in-depth tuning in the visual cortex of mammals. The model suggests that vergence and tracking eye movements can be viewed as fundamentally having the same objective of maximizing the coding efficiency of the visual system and that they can be learned and calibrated jointly through AEC.
We present measurements of the azimuthal dependence of charged jet production in central and semi-central sNN−−−√ = 2.76 TeV Pb-Pb collisions with respect to the second harmonic event plane, quantified as vch jet2. Jet finding is performed employing the anti-kT algorithm with a resolution parameter R = 0.2 using charged tracks from the ALICE tracking system. The contribution of the azimuthal anisotropy of the underlying event is taken into account event-by-event. The remaining (statistical) region-to-region fluctuations are removed on an ensemble basis by unfolding the jet spectra for different event plane orientations independently. Significant non-zero vch jet2 is observed in semi-central collisions (30-50\% centrality) for 20 < pch jetT < 90 GeV/c. The azimuthal dependence of the charged jet production is similar to the dependence observed for jets comprising both charged and neutral fragments, and compatible with measurements of the v2 of single charged particles at high pT. Good agreement between the data and predictions from JEWEL, an event generator simulating parton shower evolution in the presence of a dense QCD medium, is found in semi-central collisions.

The remaining (statistical) region-to-region fluctuations are removed on an ensemble basis by unfolding the jet spectra for different event plane orientations independently. Significant non-zero v2ch jet is observed in semi-central collisions (30–50% centrality) for 20<pTch jet<90 GeV/c. The azimuthal dependence of the charged jet production is similar to the dependence observed for jets comprising both charged and neutral fragments, and compatible with measurements of the v2 of single charged particles at high pT. Good agreement between the data and predictions from JEWEL, an event generator simulating parton shower evolution in the presence of a dense QCD medium, is found in semi-central collisions.
Angular correlations between heavy-flavour decay electrons and charged particles at mid-rapidity (|η|<0.8) are measured in p-Pb collisions at sNN−−−√ = 5.02 TeV. The analysis is carried out for the 0-20% (high) and 60-100% (low) multiplicity ranges. The jet contribution in the correlation distribution from high-multiplicity events is removed by subtracting the distribution from low-multiplicity events. An azimuthal modulation remains after removing the jet contribution, similar to previous observations in two-particle angular correlation measurements for light-flavour hadrons. A Fourier decomposition of the modulation results in a positive second-order coefficient (v2) for heavy-flavour decay electrons in the transverse momentum interval 1.5<pT<4 GeV/c in high-multiplicity events, with a significance larger than 5σ. The results are compared with those of charged particles at mid-rapidity and of inclusive muons at forward rapidity. The v2 measurement of open heavy-flavour particles at mid-rapidity in small collision systems could provide crucial information to help interpret the anisotropies observed in such systems.

The azimuthal (Δφ) correlation distributions between heavy-flavor decay electrons and associated charged particles are measured in pp and p−Pb collisions at sNN−−−√=5.02 TeV. Results are reported for electrons with transverse momentum 4<pT<16 GeV/c and pseudorapidity |η|<0.6. The associated charged particles are selected with transverse momentum 1<pT<7 GeV/c, and relative pseudorapidity separation with the leading electron |Δη|<1. The correlation measurements are performed to study and characterize the fragmentation and hadronization of heavy quarks. The correlation structures are fitted with a constant and two von Mises functions to obtain the baseline and the near- and away-side peaks, respectively. The results from p−Pb collisions are compared with those from pp collisions to study the effects of cold nuclear matter. In the measured trigger electron and associated particle kinematic regions, the two collision systems give consistent results. The Δφ distribution and the peak observables in pp and p−Pb collisions are compared with calculations from various Monte Carlo event generators.

The measurement of the azimuthal-correlation function of prompt D mesons with charged particles in pp collisions at s√ = 5.02 TeV and p-Pb collisions at sNN−−−√ = 5.02 TeV with the ALICE detector at the LHC is reported. The D0, D+, and D∗+ mesons, together with their charge conjugates, were reconstructed at midrapidity in the transverse momentum interval 3 < pT < 24 GeV/c and correlated with charged particles having pT > 0.3 GeV/c and pseudorapidity |η|< 0.8. The properties of the correlation peaks appearing in the near- and away-side regions (for Δφ≈ 0 and Δφ≈π, respectively) were extracted via a fit to the azimuthal correlation functions. The shape of the correlation functions and the near- and away-side peak features are found to be consistent in pp and p-Pb collisions, showing no modifications due to nuclear effects within uncertainties. The results are compared with predictions from Monte Carlo simulations performed with the PYTHIA, POWHEG+PYTHIA, HERWIG, and EPOS 3 event generators.

Azimuthally-differential femtoscopic measurements, being sensitive to spatio-temporal characteristics of the source as well as to the collective velocity fields at freeze out, provide very important information on the nature and dynamics of the system evolution. While the HBT radii oscillations relative to the second harmonic event plane measured recently reflect mostly the spatial geometry of the source, model studies have shown that the HBT radii oscillations relative to the third harmonic event plane are predominantly defined by the velocity fields. In this Letter, we present the first results on azimuthally-differential pion femtoscopy relative to the third harmonic event plane as a function of the pion pair transverse momentum kT for different collision centralities in Pb–Pb collisions at √sNN = 2.76 TeV. We find that the Rside and Rout radii, which characterize the pion source size in the directions perpendicular and parallel to the pion transverse momentum, oscillate in phase relative to the third harmonic event plane, similar to the results from 3+1D hydrodynamical calculations. The observed radii oscillations unambiguously signal a collective expansion and anisotropy in the velocity fields. A comparison of the measured radii scillations with the Blast-Wave model calculations indicate that the initial state triangularity is washedout at freeze out.
High shares of intermittent renewable power generation in a European electricity system will require flexible backup power generation on the dominant diurnal, synoptic, and seasonal weather timescales. The same three timescales are already covered by today’s dispatchable electricity generation facilities, which are able to follow the typical load variations on the intra-day, intra-week, and seasonal timescales. This work aims to quantify the changing demand for those three backup flexibility classes in emerging large-scale electricity systems, as they transform from low to high shares of variable renewable power generation. A weather-driven modelling is used, which aggregates eight years of wind and solar power generation data as well as load data over Germany and Europe, and splits the backup system required to cover the residual load into three flexibility classes distinguished by their respective maximum rates of change of power output. This modelling shows that the slowly flexible backup system is dominant at low renewable shares, but its optimized capacity decreases and drops close to zero once the average renewable power generation exceeds 50% of the mean load. The medium flexible backup capacities increase for modest renewable shares, peak at around a 40% renewable share, and then continuously decrease to almost zero once the average renewable power generation becomes larger than 100% of the mean load. The dispatch capacity of the highly flexible backup system becomes dominant for renewable shares beyond 50%, and reach their maximum around a 70% renewable share. For renewable shares above 70% the highly flexible backup capacity in Germany remains at its maximum, whereas it decreases again for Europe. This indicates that for highly renewable large-scale electricity systems the total required backup capacity can only be reduced if countries share their excess generation and backup power.
Rich functionalities of transition-metal oxides and their interfaces bear an enormous technological potential. Its realization in practical devices requires, however, a significant improvement of yet relatively low electron mobility in oxide materials. Recently, a mobility boost of about two orders of magnitude has been demonstrated at the spinel/perovskite {\gamma}-Al2O3/SrTiO3 interface compared to the paradigm perovskite/perovskite LaAlO3/SrTiO3. We explore the fundamental physics behind this phenomenon from direct measurements of the momentum-resolved electronic structure of this interface using resonant soft-X-ray angle-resolved photoemission. We find an anomaly in orbital ordering of the mobile electrons in {\gamma}-Al2O3/SrTiO3 which depopulates electron states in the top STO layer. This rearrangement of the mobile electron system pushes the electron density away from the interface that reduces its overlap with the interfacial defects and weakens the electron-phonon interaction, both effects contributing to the mobility boost. A crystal-field analysis shows that the band order alters owing to the symmetry breaking between the spinel {\gamma}-Al2O3 and perovskite SrTiO3. The band-order engineering exploiting the fundamental symmetry properties emerges as another route to boost the performance of oxide devices.

Bardeen black hole chemistry
(2019)
In the present paper we try to connect the Bardeen black hole with the concept of the recently proposed black hole chemistry. We study thermodynamic properties of the regular black hole with an anti-deSitter background. The negative cosmological constant Λ plays the role of the positive thermodynamic pressure of the system. After studying the thermodynamic variables, we derive the corresponding equation of state and we show that a neutral Bardeen-anti-deSitter black hole has similar phenomenology to the chemical Van der Waals fluid. This is equivalent to saying that the system exhibits criticality and a first order small/large black hole phase transition reminiscent of the liquid/gas coexistence.
Baryonic models of ultra-low-mass compact stars for the central compact object in HESS J1731-347
(2023)
The recent attempt on mass and radius inference of the central compact object within the supernova remnant HESS J1731-347 suggests for this object an unusually low mass of M=0.77−0.17+0.20M⊙ and a small radius of R=10.4−0.78+0.86km. We explore the ways such a result can be accommodated within models of dense matter with heavy baryonic degrees of freedom which are constrained by the multi-messenger observations. We find that to do so using only purely nucleonic models, one needs to assume a rather small value of the slope of symmetry energy Lsym. Once heavy baryons are included higher values of the slope Lsym become acceptable at the cost of a slightly reduced maximum mass of static configuration. These two scenarios are distinguished by the particle composition and will undergo different cooling scenarios. In addition, we show that the universalities of the I-Love-Q relations for static configurations can be extended to very low masses without loss in their accuracy.
Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wurden zwei verschiedene Zerfallsprozesse behandelt. Zunächst wurde im Rahmen des erweiterten Linearen Sigma-Modells die Antwort auf die Frage gesucht, welches Teilchen als chiraler Partner des Nukleons in Frage kommt. Dazu wurde der Zerfall des chiralen Partners in ein Nukleon und ein skalares Teilchen betrachtet. Das skalare Teilchen wurde mit dem Tetraquark-Zustand f0(600) identifiziert. In Augenschein genommen wurden die Resonanzen N(1535) und N(1640). Aufgrund der berechneten Zerfallsbreiten erkannte man im Falle von N(1650) eine größere Übereinstimmung mit den experimentellen Werten. Die Zerfallsbreite von 45.91 MeV liegt in der Größenordnung des im Particle Data Book verzeichneten Intervalls. Der Wert, den man bei Verwendung von N(1535) als Ausgangsteilchen erhielt, ist allerdings gegenüber der Vorhersage zu groß.
Ein nächster Schritt im Studium dieses Sachverhalts stellt das erweiterte Misch-Szenario dar. Es beinhaltet nicht nur zwei, sondern vier Spinoren. Zwei davon beschreiben Nukleon-Resonanzen, zwei sind mögliche chirale Partner. Da die Zustände mischen, wird der chirale Partner nicht eindeutig durch ein, sondern durch zwei Resonanzen repräsentiert. Weiterhin steht die eingehende Betrachtung des Ursprungs von m0 aus. Dazu muss außer derWechselwirkung mit dem Tetraquark-Zustand auch die Wechselwirkung eines Glueballs mit den beteiligten Hadronen berücksichtigt werden. Dadurch erhält die Masse von m0 einen Anteil, der aus dem Glueball-Kondensat stammt. Dies muss beim Rückschluss auf die Nukleonmasse beachtet werden.
Als nächstes wurde der Zerfall des pseudoskalaren Glueballs in zwei Nukleonen betrachtet. Da die Kopplungskonstante dieses Zerfalls noch nicht experimentell bestimmt wurde, wurde ein Verhältnis zwischen zwei Zerfallskanälen berechnet. Es zeigte sich, dass der Zerfall in zwei Nukleonen fast doppelt so wahrscheinlich ist wie der Zerfall in Nukleon und chiralen Partner, der an der Energieschwelle liegt. Die Berechnung wurde mit einem Teilchen der Masse 2.6 GeV als Glueball durchgeführt. Die Untersuchung derart schwerer Glueballs wird in naher Zukunft erstmalig im Rahmen des PANDA-Experiments der GSI möglich sein.
Zukünftige Studien sollten die Beteiligung des Glueballs an gemischten Zuständen berücksichtigen. Außerdem sollte ein möglicher skalarer Glueball in die Betrachtung miteinbezogen werden.
We have investigated the systematic differences introduced when performing a Bayesian-inference analysis of the equation of state (EOS) of neutron stars employing either variable- or constant-likelihood functions. The former has the advantage of retaining the full information on the distributions of the measurements, making exhaustive usage of the data. The latter, on the other hand, has the advantage of a much simpler implementation and reduced computational costs. In both approaches, the EOSs have identical priors and have been built using the sound speed parameterization method so as to satisfy the constraints from X-ray and gravitational waves observations, as well as those from chiral effective theory and perturbative quantum chromodynamics. In all cases, the two approaches lead to very similar results and the 90% confidence levels essentially overlap. Some differences do appear, but in regions where the probability density is extremely small and are mostly due to the sharp cutoff on the binary tidal deformability L˜ 720 set in the constant-likelihood approach. Our analysis has also produced two additional results. First, an inverse correlation between the normalized central number density, nc,TOV/ns, and the radius of a maximally massive star, RTOV. Second, and most importantly, it has confirmed the relation between the chirp mass and the binary tidal deformability. The importance of this result is that it relates chirp, which is measured very accurately, and L˜ , which contains important information on the EOS. Hence, when chirp is measured in future detections, our relation can be used to set tight constraints on L˜ .

Beam test of the direct plasma injection scheme (DPIS) is carried out successfully for the first time in China, by setting up a comprehensive test and research platform of RFQ and laser ion source. The C6+ beam is accelerated successfully, and the peak beam current reaches more than 6mA which is measured by a Faraday cup of unique structure. The RF power coupled into the RFQ cavity is also examined, and results reveal that it is the RF power of about 195kW that can produce the peak beam current.
This dissertation describes the development of the beam dynamics design of a novel superconducting linear accelerator. At a main operating frequency of 216.816 MHz, ions with a mass-to-charge ratio of up to 6 can be accelerated at high duty cycles up to CW operation. Intended for construction at the GSI Helmholtz Centre for Heavy Ion Research in Darmstadt, the focus of the work is on the beam dynamic design of the accelerator section downstream of the high charge injector (HLI) at an injection energy of 1.39 MeV/u. An essential feature of this linear accelerator (Linac) is the use of the EQUUS (Equidistant Multigap Structure) beam dynamics concept for a variably adjustable output energy between 3.5 and 7.3 MeV/u (corresponding to about 12.4 % of the speed of light) with a required low energy spread of maximum 3 keV/u.
The GSI Helmholtz Centre for Heavy Ion Research is a large-scale research facility that uses its particle accelerators to perform basic research with ion beams. Research on super-heavy elements ("SHE") is a major focus. It is expected that their production and research will provide answers to a large number of scientific questions. The production and detection of elements with atomic numbers 107 to 112 (Bohrium, Hassium, Meitnerium, Darmstadtium, Röntgenium and Copernicium) was first achieved at GSI between 1981 and 1996.
Key to this remarkable progress in SHE research were continuous developments and technical innovations. On the one hand, in the field of experimental sensitivity and detection of the nuclear reaction products and, on the other hand, in the field of accelerator technology.
For the acceleration of the projectile beam, the UNILAC (Universal Linear Accelerator), which was put into operation in 1975, has been used at GSI so far. In the course of the reconstruction and expansion of the research infrastructure at GSI, a dedicated new particle accelerator, HELIAC (Helmholtz Linear Accelerator), is now under development to meet the special requirements of the beam parameters for the synthesis of new superheavy elements. Typically, the production rates of super-heavy elements with effective cross sections in the picobarn range are very low. Therefore, a high duty cycle (up to CW operation) is a key feature of HELIAC. Thus, the required beam time for the desired nuclear reactions can be significantly shortened.
Theoretical preliminary work by Minaev et al. and newly created knowledge about design, fabrication, and operation of superconducting drift tube cavities have laid the foundation for this work and thus the development of the HELIAC linear accelerator. It consists of a superconducting and a normal conducting part. Acceleration takes place in the superconducting part in four cryomodules, each about 5 m long. These contain three CH cavities, one buncher cavity, two solenoid magnets for transverse beam focusing, and two beam position monitors (BPMs).
The following 10 m long normal conducting part is primarily used for beam transport and ends with a buncher cavity. This is operated at a halved frequency of 108.408 MHz.
A key feature of this accelerator is the variability of the output energy from 3.5 to 7.3 MeV/u with a small energy uncertainty of ±3 keV/u maximum over the entire output energy range. For the development of HELIAC, the EQUUS beam dynamics concept used combined the advantages of conventional linac designs with the high acceleration gradients of superconducting CH-DTLs. By doubling the frequency (compared to the GSI high charge injector) to 216.816 MHz in the superconducting section and using CH cavities at an acceleration gradient of maximum 7.1 MV/m, an acceleration efficiency with superconducting drift tube structures that is unique in the world is made possible. At the same time, the compact lengths of the CH cavities ensure good handling for both production and operation. EQUUS leads to longitudinal beam stability in all energy ranges of the accelerator with the sliding motion of the synchronous phase within each CH cavity. The rms emittance growth is moderate in all levels. The modular design of the HELIAC with four cryomodules basically allows the Linac to be commissioned starting with the first cryomodule, the so-called Advanced Demonstrator. In the subsequent expansion stage with only the first two cryomodules of HELIAC, the lower limit of the energy range to be provided by HELIAC (3.5 MeV/u) can already be clearly exceeded, so that use in regular beam operation at GSI is already conceivable from here on.
By means of error tolerance studies, the stability of the HELIAC beam dynamics design against possible alignment errors of the magnetic focusing elements and accelerator cavities as well as errors of the electric field amplitudes and phases have been investigated, basically confirmed and critical parameters have been determined. An additional steering concept via dipole correction coils at the solenoid magnets allows transverse beam control as well as diagnostics by means of two BPMs per cryomodule.
With completion of this work in 2021, the CH1 and CH2 cavities have already been built and are in the final preparation and cold test phase. In parallel, the development of the CH cavities CH3-11 has also been started.

This thesis discusses important questions of the beam dynamics in the proton-lead operation in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN in Geneva. In two time blocks of several weeks in the years 2013 and 2016, proton-lead collisions have so far been successfully generated in the LHC and used by the experiments at the LHC. One reason for doubts regarding the successful operation in proton-lead configuration was the fact that the beams have to be accelerated with different revolution frequencies. There is long-range repulsion between the beams, since both beams share the beam chamber around the interaction points. Because of the different revolution frequencies, the positions of the interaction between the beams shift each revolution. This can lead to resonant excitation and to an increase in the transverse beam emittance, as was observed in the Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider (RHIC). In this thesis, simulations for the LHC, RHIC and the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) are performed with a new model. The results for RHIC show relative growth rates of the emittances of the gold beam in gold-deuteron operation in RHIC from 0.1 %/s to 1.5 %/s. Growth rates of this magnitude were observed experimentally in RHIC. Simulations for the LHC show no significant increase of the emittance of the lead beam for different intensities of the counter-rotating beam. The simulation results confirm the measured stability of the beams in the LHC and the issue of strongly increasing emittances in RHIC is reproduced. Also, no significant increase of the emittance is predicted for the Future Circular Collider (FCC) and the HL-LHC.
Using a frequency-map analysis, this work verifies whether the interaction of the lead beam with the much smaller proton beam in the proton-lead operation of the LHC leads to diffusion within the lead beam. Experiences at HERA at DESY in Hamburg and at SppS at CERN have shown that the lifetime of the larger beam can rapidly decrease under certain circumstances. The results of the simulation show no chaotic dynamics near the beam centre of the lead beam. This result is supported by experimental observation.
A program code has been developed which calculates the beam evolution in the LHC by means of coupled differential equations. This study shows that the growth rates of the lead beam due to intra-beam scattering is overestimated and that particle bunches of the lead beam lose more intensity than assumed in the model. The analysis also shows that bunches colliding in a detector suffer additional losses that increase with decreasing crossing angle at the interaction point.
In this work, 2016 data from beam-loss monitors in combination with the luminosity and the loss rate of the beam intensity are used to determine the cross section of proton-lead collisions at the center-of-mass energy of 8.16 TeV. Beam-loss monitors that mainly detect beam losses that are not caused by the collision process itself are used to determine the total cross section via regression. An analysis of the data recorded in 2016 at the center-of-mass energy of 8.16 TeV resulted in a total cross section of σ=(2.32±0.01(stat.)±0.20(sys.)) b. This corresponds approximately to a hadronic cross section of σ(had)=(2.24±0.01(stat.)±0.21(sys.)) b. This value deviates only by 5.7 % from the theoretical value σ(had)=(2.12±0.01) b.
The simulation code for determining the beam evolution is also used to estimate the integrated luminosity of a future one-month run with proton-lead collisions. The result of the study shows that in the future the luminosity in the ATLAS and CMS experiments will increase from 15/nb per day in 2016 to 30/nb per day, which is a significant increase in terms of the performance. This operation, however, requires the use of the TCL collimators to protect the dispersion suppressors at ATLAS and CMS from collision fragments.
This work also gives an outlook on the expected luminosity production in proton-nucleus operation using ion species lighter than lead ions. For example, a change from proton-lead to proton-argon collisions would increase the integrated luminosity from monthly 0.8/nb to 9.4/nb in ATLAS and CMS. This is an increase of one order of magnitude and approximately a doubling of the integrated nucleon-nucleon luminosity. There may be a test operation with proton-oxygen collisions in 2023, which will last only a few days and will be operated with a low luminosity. The LHCf experiment (LHCb experiment) would achieve the desired integrated luminosity of 1.5/nb (2/nb) within 70h (35h) beam time.
The ARMADILLO bunch compressor currently being designed at IAP is capable of reaching a longitudinal pulse compression ratio of 45 for proton beams of 150 mA at 2 MeV. It will provide one nanosecond proton pulses with a peak current of 7.7 A. The system guides nine linacμbunches deflected by a 5 MHz rf kicker and uses four dipole magnets - two homogeneous and two with field gradients - to merge them on the target. For longitudinal focusing and an energy variation of ±200 keV two multitrack rf cavities are included. ARMADILLO will be installed at the end of the Frankfurt Neutron Source FRANZ making use of the unique 250 kHz time structure. This contribution will provide an overview of the layout of the system as well as recent advances in component design and beam dynamics of the compressor.
At sufficiently high temperatures and baryon densities, nuclear matter is expected to undergo a transition into the Quark-Gluon-Plasma (QGP) consisting of deconfined quarks and gluons and accompanied by chiral symmetry restoration. Signals of these two fundamental characteristics of Quantum-Chromo-Dynamics (QCD) can be studied in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions producing a relatively large volume of high energy and nucleon densities as existent in the early universe. Dileptons are unique bulk-penetrating sources for this purpose since they penetrate through the surrounding medium with negligible interaction and are created throughout the entire evolution of the initially created fireball. A multitude of experiments at SIS18, SPS and RHIC have taken on the challenging task to measure these rare probes in a heavy-ion environment. NA60's results from high-quality dimuon measurements have identified the broadened ρ spectral function as favorable scenario to explain the low-mass dilepton excess, and partonic sources as dominant at intermediate dilepton masses.
Enabled by the addition of a TOF detector system in 2010, the first phase of the Beam Energy Scan (BES-I) at RHIC allows STAR to conduct an unprecedented energy-dependent study of dielectron production within a homogeneous experimental environment, and hence close the wide gap in the QCD phase diagram between SPS and top RHIC energies. This thesis concentrates on the understanding of the LMR enhancement regarding its invariant mass, transverse momentum and energy dependence. It studies dielectron production in Au+Au collisions at beam energies of 19.6, 27, 39, and 62.4 GeV with sufficient statistics. In conjunction with the published STAR results at top RHIC energy, this thesis presents results on the first comprehensive energy-dependent study of dielectron production.
This includes invariant mass- and transverse momenta-spectra for the four beam energies measured in 0-80% minimum-bias Au+Au collisions with high statistics up to 3.5 GeV/c² and 2.2 GeV/c, respectively. Their comparison with cocktail simulations of hadronic sources reveals a sizeable and steadily increasing excess yield in the LMR at all beam energies. The scenario of broadened in-medium ρ spectral functions proves to not only serve well as dominating underlying source but also to be universal in nature since it quantitatively and qualitatively explains the LMR enhancements measured over the wide range from SPS to top RHIC energies. It shows that most of the enhancement is governed by interactions of the ρ meson with thermal resonance excitations in the late(r)-stage hot and dense hadronic phase. This conclusion is supported by the energy-dependent measurement of integrated LMR excess yields and enhancement factors. The former do not exhibit a strong dependence on beam energy as expected from the approximately constant total baryon density above 20 GeV, and the latter show agreement with the CERES measurement at SPS energy. The consistency in excess yields and agreement with model calculations over the wide RHIC energy regime makes a strong case for LMR enhancements on the order of a factor 2-3.
The extent of the results presented here enables a more solid discussion of its relation to chiral symmetry restoration from a theoretical point of view. High-statistics measurements at BES-II hold the promise to confirm these conclusions along with the LMR enhancment's relation to total baryon density with decreasing beam energy.
New measurements of directed flow for charged hadrons, characterized by the Fourier coefficient v1, are presented for transverse momenta pT, and centrality intervals in Au+Au collisions recorded by the STAR experiment for the center-of-mass energy range √sN N = 7.7–200 GeV. The measurements underscore the importance of momentum conservation, and the characteristic dependencies on √sN N , centrality and pT are consistent with the expectations of geometric fluctuations generated in the initial stages of the collision, acting in concert with a hydrodynamic-like expansion. The centrality and pT dependencies of veven 1 , as well as an observed similarity between its excitation function and that for v3, could serve as constraints for initial-state models. The veven 1 excitation function could also provide an important supplement to the flow measurements employed for precision extraction of the temperature dependence of the specific shear viscosity.
The goal of heavy ion reactions at low beam energies is to explore the QCD phase diagram at high net baryon chemical potential. To relate experimental observations with a first order phase transition or a critical endpoint, dynamical approaches for the theoretical description have to be developed. In this summary of the corresponding plenary talk, the status of the dynamical modeling including the most recent advances is presented. The remaining challenges are highlighted and promising experimental measurements are pointed out.
The present study focuses on the beam line optimization from the heavy-ion synchrotron SIS18 to the HADES experiment. BOBYQA (Bound Optimization BY Quadratic Approximation) solves bound constrained optimization problems without using derivatives of the objective function. The Bayesian optimization is another strategy for global optimization of costly, noisy functions without using derivatives. A python programming interface to MADX allow the use of the python implementation of BOBYQA and Bayesian method. This gave the possibility to use tracking simulation with MADX to determine the loss budget for each lattice setting during the optimization and compare both optimization methods.
Beam measurements with the new RFQ beam matching section at the Frankfurt Funneling Experiment
(2011)
Funneling is a method to increase low energy beam currents in multiple stages. The Frankfurt Funneling Experiment is a model of such a stage. The experiment is built up of two ion sources with electrostatic lens systems, a Two-Beam-RFQ accelerator, a funneling deflector and a beam diagnostic system. The two beams are bunched and accelerated in a Two-Beam RFQ. A funneling deflector combines the bunches to a common beam axis. A new beam transport system between RFQ accelerator and deflector has been constructed and mounted. With these extended RFQ-electrodes the drift between the Two-Beam-RFQ and the rf-deflector will be minimized and therefore unwanted emittance growth reduced. After first rf measurements current work are beam tests with the improved Two-Beam-RFQ. First results will be presented.
The ALICE collaboration at the LHC reports measurement of the inclusive production cross section of electrons from semi-leptonic decays of beauty hadrons with rapidity |y|<0.8 and transverse momentum 1<pT<10 GeV/c, in pp collisions at s√= 2.76 TeV. Electrons not originating from semi-electronic decay of beauty hadrons are suppressed using the impact parameter of the corresponding tracks. The production cross section of beauty decay electrons is compared to the result obtained with an alternative method which uses the distribution of the azimuthal angle between heavy-flavour decay electrons and charged hadrons. Perturbative QCD calculations agree with the measured cross section within the experimental and theoretical uncertainties. The integrated visible cross section, σb→e=3.47±0.40(stat)+1.12−1.33(sys)±0.07(norm)μb, was extrapolated to full phase space using Fixed Order plus Next-to-Leading Log (FONLL) predictions to obtain the total bb¯ production cross section, σbb¯=130±15.1(stat)+42.1−49.8(sys)+3.4−3.1(extr)±2.5(norm)±4.4(BR)μb.

Es wird auf die Mannigfaltigkeit der Kontraste hingewiesen, die sich bei mit Aldehyden fixiertem, in Vestopal W oder Durcupan ACM eingebettetem Gewebe durch gesteuerte Elektronenbestrahlung erreichen läßt. Voraussetzung für einen einwandfreien Vergleich von Kontrasten bei z. B. verschieden gefärbten Schnitten ist daher eine Bestrahlung, die zu ausreichend definierten Objektveränderungen führt. Brauchbar in diesem Sinne ist eine Bestrahlung, die zum maximalen „reinen Strahlenverlust“ führt, bei der aber thermische Substanzverluste vermieden werden. Der Negativkontrast von Chromatin und Nucleolen und die offenbar physikalisch bedingte Färbbarkeit der nucleinsäurehaltigen Zellbestandteile mittels der „negative-staining“-Methode werden diskutiert.
Physikalische und thermische Kontrastierung führt bei Fixierung in Glutaraldehyd und Einbettung in Vestopal bei Parenchymzellen der Leber zu weitgehend ähnlichen Kontrastunterschieden auch bei Mitochondrien und den Membranen des Retikulums. Beide Verfahren wirken also weitgehend unspezifisch. Von den chemischen Verfahren liefert Uranylacetat im Cytoplasma ähnliche Kontrastverhältnisse wie die beiden genannten Verfahren. Das spezifische Verhalten des Uranylacetats kann z. B. an der Kontrastierung des Chromatins demonstriert werden. Sie bleibt aus, wenn die färbbare Substanz auf der Wasseroberfläche des Messertroges herausgewaschen wurde. Bleicitrat-Kontrastierung hat hier im Gegensatz zu Uranylacetat eine spezifische Wirkung nur auf RNS-haltige Zellbestandteile.
Die von verschiedenen Autoren 2–8 experimentell bestimmten Kontrastdicken für Kohle stimmen nicht mit den heute of benutzten numerischen Werten aus der Lenz schen Theorie überein. Die Diskrepanz läßt sich beheben, wenn man zur Auswertung der Theorie einen anderen, schon von LENZ zur Diskussion gestellten Θ-Wert benutzt. Durch Experimente wird gezeigt, daß auch der Bereich, in dem das Exponentialgesetz nicht mehr gilt, gut durch eine aus der Lenz schen Theorie hergeleitete Formel dargestellt werden kann. Der Bereich, in dem das Exponentialgesetz verwandt werden darf, wird näher diskutiert.
The OpenLat initiative presents its results of lattice QCD simulations using Stabilized Wilson Fermions (SWF) using 2+1 quark flavors. Focusing on the SU(3) flavor symmetric point mπ=mK=412 MeV, four different lattice spacings (a=0.064,0.077,0.094,0.12 fm) are used to perform the continuum limit to study cutoff effects. We present results on light hadron masses; for the determination we use a Bayesian analysis framework with constraints and model averaging to minimize the bias in the analysis.
A central motivation for the development of x-ray free-electron lasers has been the prospect of time-resolved single-molecule imaging with atomic resolution. Here, we show that x-ray photoelectron diffraction—where a photoelectron emitted after x-ray absorption illuminates the molecular structure from within—can be used to image the increase of the internuclear distance during the x-ray-induced fragmentation of an O2 molecule. By measuring the molecular-frame photoelectron emission patterns for a two-photon sequential K-shell ionization in coincidence with the fragment ions, and by sorting the data as a function of the measured kinetic energy release, we can resolve the elongation of the molecular bond by approximately 1.2 a.u. within the duration of the x-ray pulse. The experiment paves the road toward time-resolved pump-probe photoelectron diffraction imaging at high-repetition-rate x-ray free-electron lasers.
During infection the SARS-CoV-2 virus fuses its viral envelope with cellular membranes of its human host. The viral spike (S) protein mediates both the initial contact with the host cell and the subsequent membrane fusion. Proteolytic cleavage of S at the S2′ site exposes its fusion peptide (FP) as the new N-terminus. By binding to the host membrane, the FP anchors the virus to the host cell. The reorganization of S2 between virus and host then pulls the two membranes together. Here we use molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to study the two core functions of the SARS-CoV-2 FP: to attach quickly to cellular membranes and to form an anchor strong enough to withstand the mechanical force during membrane fusion. In eight 10 μs long MD simulations of FP in proximity to endosomal and plasma membranes, we find that FP binds spontaneously to the membranes and that binding proceeds predominantly by insertion of two short amphipathic helices into the membrane interface. Connected via a flexible linker, the two helices can bind the membrane independently, yet binding of one promotes the binding of the other by tethering it close to the target membrane. By simulating mechanical pulling forces acting on the C-terminus of the FP, we then show that the bound FP can bear forces up to 250 pN before detaching from the membrane. This detachment force is more than 10-fold higher than an estimate of the force required to pull host and viral membranes together for fusion. We identify a fully conserved disulfide bridge in the FP as a major factor for the high mechanical stability of the FP membrane anchor. We conclude, first, that the sequential binding of two short amphipathic helices allows the SARS-CoV-2 FP to insert quickly into the target membrane, before the virion is swept away after shedding the S1 domain connecting it to the host cell receptor. Second, we conclude that the double attachment and the conserved disulfide bridge establish the strong anchoring required for subsequent membrane fusion. Multiple distinct membrane-anchoring elements ensure high avidity and high mechanical strength of FP–membrane binding.
During infection the SARS-CoV-2 virus fuses its viral envelope with cellular membranes of its human host. Initial contact with the host cell and membrane fusion are both mediated by the viral spike (S) protein. Proteolytic cleavage of S at the S2′ site exposes its 40 amino acid long fusion peptide (FP). Binding of the FP to the host membrane anchors the S2 domain of S in both the viral and the host membrane. The reorganization of S2 then pulls the two membranes together.

The electrical and computational properties of neurons in our brains are determined by a rich repertoire of membrane-spanning ion channels and elaborate dendritic trees. However, the precise reason for this inherent complexity remains unknown. Here, we generated large stochastic populations of biophysically realistic hippocampal granule cell models comparing those with all 15 ion channels to their reduced but functional counterparts containing only 5 ion channels. Strikingly, valid parameter combinations in the full models were more frequent and more stable in the face of perturbations to channel expression levels. Scaling up the numbers of ion channels artificially in the reduced models recovered these advantages confirming the key contribution of the actual number of ion channel types. We conclude that the diversity of ion channels gives a neuron greater flexibility and robustness to achieve target excitability.
Recent calculations applying statistical mechanics indicate that in a setting with compactified large extra dimensions a black hole might evolve into a (quasi-)stable state with mass close to the new fundamental scale Mf. Black holes and therefore their relics might be produced at the LHC in the case of extra-dimensional topologies. In this energy regime, Hawking's evaporation scenario is modified due to energy conservation and quantum effects. We reanalyse the evaporation of small black holes including the quantisation of the emitted radiation due to the finite surface of the black hole. It is found that observable stable black hole relics with masses ∼1–3Mf would form which could be identified by a delayed single jet with a corresponding hard momentum kick to the relic and by ionisation, e.g., in a TPC.
In this Letter we derive the gravity field equations by varying the action for an ultraviolet complete quantum gravity. Then we consider the case of a static source term and we determine an exact black hole solution. As a result we find a regular spacetime geometry: in place of the conventional curvature singularity extreme energy fluctuations of the gravitational field at small length scales provide an effective cosmological constant in a region locally described in terms of a de Sitter space. We show that the new metric coincides with the noncommutative geometry inspired Schwarzschild black hole. Indeed, we show that the ultraviolet complete quantum gravity, generated by ordinary matter is the dual theory of ordinary Einstein gravity coupled to a noncommutative smeared matter. In other words we obtain further insights about that quantum gravity mechanism which improves Einstein gravity in the vicinity of curvature singularities. This corroborates all the existing literature in the physics and phenomenology of noncommutative black holes.
Bose-Einstein correlations of charged kaons were measured near mid-rapidity in central Pb+Pb collisions at 158 A GeV by the NA49 experiment at the CERN SPS. Source radii were extracted using the Yano-Koonin-Podgoretsky and Bertsch-Pratt parameterizations. The results are compared to published pion data. The measured m_perp dependence for kaons and pions is consistent with collective transverse expansion of the source and a freeze-out time of about 9.5 fm.
Die HBT-Interferometrie bietet über die Analyse von Bose-Einstein-Korrelationen geladener Pionen die Möglichkeit, Raumzeit-Dimensionen von Kern-Kern-Reaktionen zu vermessen. Dadurch kann das Ausfrierverhalten der in diesen Reaktionen enstehenden teilchenemittierenden Quelle untersucht werden. Die so gewonnenen Informationen tragen zu einem Verständnis der in den Kollisionen ablaufenden Prozesse und somit zu Erkenntnissen über Kernmaterie unter extremen Bedingungen bei. Von besonderem Interesse ist dabei die Beobachtung der Ausbildung eines QGP-Zustandes. Hierfür sind systematische Studien von verschiedenen Kollisionssystemen und -energien von großer Bedeutung.
Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wurde eine Analyse von Bose-Einstein-Korrelationen in Pb-Au-Kollisionen bei einer Strahlenergie von 80A GeV durchgeführt. Die hier analysierten Daten wurden mit dem CERES-Detektor am SPS-Beschleuniger des CERN aufgenommen. Diese Analyse stellt eine erneute Untersuchung des Datensatzes unter Verwendung einer verbesserten Kalibrierungsprozedur für den CERES-Detektor dar. Infolgedessen konnte eine Verringerung der systematischen Unsicherheiten erreicht werden. Die neuen Ergebnisse stimmen mit den von der CERES-Kollaboration bereits publizierten HBT-Ergebnissen zufriedenstellend überein. Der Vergleich mit den Ergebnissen des NA49-Experiments, dass Pb-Pb-Kollisionen bei gleicher Strahlenergie unter dem Aspekt der HBT-Interferometrie untersucht hat, zeigt ebenfalls eine Übereinstimmung.
Durch diese Konsistenz und die Minimierung der systematischen Unsicherheiten im Bereich der SPS-Energien wird nun die Interpretation des Ausfrierverhaltens der Quelle besser ermöglicht: In dieser Arbeit wurde eine universelle Ausfrierbedingung von Pionen bei unterschiedlichen Schwerpunktsenergien und für verschiedene Kollisionssysteme untersucht. Diesbezügliche Observablen sind das mittels HBT-Radien bestimmte Ausfriervolumen und die mittlere freie Weglänge von Pionen zum Zeitpunkt des Ausfrierens der Quelle.
Bei dieser Untersuchung in Abhängigkeit von der Schwerpunktsenergie der Kollision zeichnet sich ein Minimum des Ausfriervolumens bei hohen AGS- und niedrigen SPS-Energien ab. Zusätzlich ergibt sich für die mittlere freie Weglänge ein ebenfalls nicht monotones Verhalten in diesem Energiebereich. Aus der dort vergrößerten Weglänge lässt sich auf eine erhöhte Emissiondauer der teilchenemittierenden Quelle gegenüber anderen Energien schließen. Die Emissionsdauer spielt in Verbindung mit dem Nachweis eines QGP-Zustandes eine wichtige Rolle. Ob die beschriebenen Beobachtungen durch ein Ausbilden dieses Zustandes oder auf Grund von anderen unbekannten Mechanismen hervorgerufen werden, kann abschließend noch nicht beurteilt werden. Denn verbleibende systematischen Unsicherheiten bei niedrigen Schwerpunktsenergien lassen derzeit keine weiteren Interpretationen zu. Insbesondere betrifft dies die noch bestehende Diskrepanz der Ergebnisse zwischen CERES und NA49 für eine Strahlenergie von 40A GeV. Daher ist eine Reanalyse der Daten von CERES bei dieser Strahlenergie von Bedeutung. Ebenso würde eine erneute systematische Messung im AGS-Energiebereich weitere grundlegende Interpretationen ermöglichen.
In Zukunft werden am RHIC-Beschleuniger des BNL in den USA und im Rahmen des FAIR-Projektes an der GSI bei Darmstadt Experimente in dieser Energieregion durchgeführt werden. Möglicherweise kann dann anhand dieser Messung ein universelles Ausfrierkriterium für Pionen sowie der Grund für ein verändertes Systemverhalten bei bestimmten Energien festgestellt werden.
In this paper we discuss experimental evidence related to the structure and origin of the bosonic spectral function alpha 2F (omega) in high-temperature superconducting (HTSC) cuprates at and near optimal doping. Global properties of alpha 2F (omega), such as number and positions of peaks, are extracted by combining optics, neutron scattering, ARPES and tunnelling measurements. These methods give evidence for strong electron-phonon interaction (EPI) with 1<lambda ep <~ 3.5 in cuprates near optimal doping. We clarify how these results are in favor of the modified Migdal-Eliashberg (ME) theory for HTSC cuprates near optimal doping. In Section 2 we discuss theoretical ingredients—such as strong EPI, strong correlations—which are necessary to explain the mechanism of d-wave pairing in optimally doped cuprates. These comprise the ME theory for EPI in strongly correlated systems which give rise to the forward scattering peak. The latter is supported by the long-range part of EPI due to the weakly screened Madelung interaction in the ionic-metallic structure of layered HTSC cuprates. In this approach EPI is responsible for the strength of pairing while the residual Coulomb interaction and spin fluctuations trigger the d-wave pairing.
We explore the formation of diquark bound states and their Bose–Einstein condensation (BEC) in the phase diagram of three-flavor quark matter at nonzero temperature, T, and quark chemical potential, μ. Using a quark model with a four-fermion interaction, we identify diquark excitations as poles of the microscopically computed diquark propagator. The quark masses are obtained by solving a dynamical equation for the chiral condensate and are found to determine the stability of the diquark excitations. The stability of diquark excitations is investigated in the T–μ plane for different values of the diquark coupling strength. We find that diquark bound states appear at small quark chemical potentials and at intermediate coupling strengths. Bose–Einstein condensation of non-strange diquark states occurs when the attractive interaction between quarks is sufficiently strong.
The existence of bound states induced by local impurities coupled to an insulating host depends decisively on the global topological properties of the host's electronic structure. In this context, we consider magnetic impurities modelled as classical unit-length spins that are exchange-coupled to the spinful Haldane model on the honeycomb lattice. We investigate the spectral flow of bound states with the coupling strength J in both the topologically trivial and Chern-insulating phases. In addition to conventional k-space topology, an additional, spatially local topological feature is available, based on the space of impurity-spin configurations forming, in case of R impurities, an R-fold direct product of two-dimensional spheres. Global k-space and local S-space topology are represented by different topological invariants, the first (k-space) Chern number and the R-th (S-space) spin-Chern number. We demonstrate that there is a local S-space topological transition as a function of J associated with a change in the spin Chern number and work out the implications of this for the J-dependent local electronic structure close to the impurities and, in particular, for in-gap bound states. The critical exchange couplings' dependence on the parameters of the Haldane model, and thus on the k-space topological state, is obtained numerically to construct local topological phase diagrams for systems with R=1 and R=2 impurity spins.
Bounding Dark Energy from the SPARC rotation curves: Data driven probe for galaxy virialization
(2024)
Dark Energy (DE) acts as a repulsive force that opposes gravitational attraction. Assuming galaxies maintain a steady state over extended periods, the estimated upper bound on DE studies its resistance to the attractive gravitational force from dark matter. Using the SPARC dataset, we fit the Navarro-Frenk-White (NFW) and Hernquist models to identify the most suitable galaxies for these models. Introducing the presence of DE in these galaxies helps establish the upper limit on its repulsive force. This upper bound on DE sits around ρ(<Λ)∼10−25~kg/m3, only two orders of magnitude higher than the one measured by Planck. We discuss the conditions for detecting DE in different systems and show the consistency of the upper bound from galaxies to other systems. The upper bound is of the same order of magnitude as ρ200=200ρc for both dark matter profiles. We also address the implications for future measurements on that upper bound and the condition for detecting the impact of Λ on galactic scales.
The gas-phase reaction of O + H₃⁺ has two exothermic product channels: OH+ + H2 and H2O+ + H. In the present study, we analyze experimental data from a merged-beams measurement to derive thermal rate coefficients resolved by product channel for the temperature range from 10 to 1000 K. Published astrochemical models either ignore the second product channel or apply a temperature-independent branching ratio of 70% versus 30% for the formation of OH+ + H2 versus H2O+ + H, respectively, which originates from a single experimental data point measured at 295 K. Our results are consistent with this data point, but show a branching ratio that varies with temperature reaching 58% versus 42% at 10 K. We provide recommended rate coefficients for the two product channels for two cases, one where the initial fine-structure population of the O(3PJ) reactant is in its J = 2 ground state and the other one where it is in thermal equilibrium.
This thesis has two main parts.
The first part is based on our publication [1], where we use perturbation theory to calculate decay rates of magnons in the Kitaev-Heisenberg-Γ (KHΓ) model. This model describes the magnetic properties of the material α-RuCl 3 , which is a candidate for a Kitaev spin liquid. Our motivation is to validate a previous calculation from Ref. [2]. In this thesis, we map out the classical phase diagram of the KHΓ model. We use the Holstein-Primakoff
transformation and the 1/S expansion to describe the low temperature dynamics of the Kitaev-Heisenberg-Γ model in the experimentally relevant zigzag phase by spin waves. By parametrizing the spin waves in terms of hermitian fields, we find a special parameter region within the KHΓ model where the analytical expressions simplify. This enables us to construct the Bogoliubov transformation analytically. For a representative point in the special parameter region, we use these results to numerically calculate the magnon damping, which is to leading order caused by the decay of single magnons into two. We also calculate the dynamical structure factor of the magnons.
The second part of this thesis is based on our publication [3], where we use the functional renormalization group to analyze a discontinuous quantum phase transition towards a non-Fermi liquid phase in the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model. In this thesis, we perform a disorder average over the random interactions in the SYK model. We argue that in the thermodynamic limit, the average renormalization group (RG) flow of the SYK model is identical to the RG flow of an effective disorder averaged model. Using the functional RG, we find a fixed point describing the discontinuous phase transition to the non-Fermi liquid phase at zero temperature. Surprisingly, we find a finite anomalous dimension of the fermions, which indicates critical fluctuations and is unusual for a discontinuous transition. We also determine the RG flow at zero temperature, and relate it to the phase diagram known from the literature.
The description of quantized collective excitations stands as a landmark in the quantum theory of condensed matter. A prominent example occurs in conventional magnets, which support bosonic magnons—quantized harmonic fluctuations of the ordered spins. In striking contrast is the recent discovery that strongly spin-orbital-coupled magnets, such as α-RuCl3, may display a broad excitation continuum inconsistent with conventional magnons. Due to incomplete knowledge of the underlying interactions unraveling the nature of this continuum remains challenging. The most discussed explanation refers to a coherent continuum of fractional excitations analogous to the celebrated Kitaev spin liquid. Here, we present a more general scenario. We propose that the observed continuum represents incoherent excitations originating from strong magnetic anharmonicity that naturally occurs in such materials. This scenario fully explains the observed inelastic magnetic response of α-RuCl3 and reveals the presence of nontrivial excitations in such materials extending well beyond the Kitaev state.
Recent experiments have demonstrated that visual cortex engages in spatio-temporal sequence learning and prediction. The cellular basis of this learning remains unclear, however. Here we present a spiking neural network model that explains a recent study on sequence learning in the primary visual cortex of rats. The model posits that the sequence learning and prediction abilities of cortical circuits result from the interaction of spike-timing dependent plasticity (STDP) and homeostatic plasticity mechanisms. It also reproduces changes in stimulus-evoked multi-unit activity during learning. Furthermore, it makes precise predictions regarding how training shapes network connectivity to establish its prediction ability. Finally, it predicts that the adapted connectivity gives rise to systematic changes in spontaneous network activity. Taken together, our model establishes a new conceptual bridge between the structure and function of cortical circuits in the context of sequence learning and prediction.
Direct laser acceleration (DLA) of electrons in a plasma of near-critical electron density (NCD) and the associated synchrotron-like radiation are discussed for moderate relativistic laser intensity (normalized laser amplitude a0 ≤ 4.3) and ps length pulse. This regime is typical of kJ PW-class laser facilities designed for high-energy-density (HED) research. In experiments at the PHELIX facility, it has been demonstrated that interaction of a 1019 W/cm2 sub-ps laser pulse with a sub-mm length NCD plasma results in the generation of high-current well-directed super-ponderomotive electrons with an effective temperature ten times higher than the ponderomotive potential [Rosmej et al., Plasma Phys. Controlled Fusion 62, 115024 (2020)]. Three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations provide good agreement with the measured electron energy distribution and are used in the current work to study synchrotron radiation from the DLA-accelerated electrons. The resulting x-ray spectrum with a critical energy of 5 keV reveals an ultrahigh photon number of 7 × 1011 in the 1–30 keV photon energy range at the focused laser energy of 20 J. Numerical simulations of betatron x-ray phase contrast imaging based on the DLA process for the parameters of a PHELIX laser are presented. The results are of interest for applications in HED experiments, which require a ps x-ray pulse and a high photon flux.
We provide a discussion of the bulk viscosity of two-flavor quark plasma, described by the Nambu–Jona-Lasinio model, within the framework of Kubo-Zubarev formalism. This discussion, which is complementary to our earlier study, contains a new, detailed derivation of the bulk viscosity in the case of multiple conserved charges. We also provide some numerical details of the computation of the bulk viscosity close to the Mott transition line, where the dissipation is dominated by decays of mesons into quarks and their inverse processes. We close with a summary of our current understanding of this quantity, which stresses the importance of loop resummation for obtaining the qualitatively correct result near the Mott line
Starting from IP-Glasma initial conditions, we investigate the effects of bulk pressure on low mass dilepton production at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) energies. Though thermal dilepton is affected by the presence of both bulk and shear viscosity, whether or not these effects can be measured depends on the dilepton “cocktail” contribution to the the low mass dilepton . Combining the thermal and “cocktail” dileptons, the effects of bulk viscosity on total dilepton is investigated.
b̄b̄ud tetraquark resonances in the Born-Oppenheimer approximation using lattice QCD potentials
(2018)
We study tetraquark resonances using lattice QCD potentials for a pair of static antiquarks b¯b¯ in the presence of two light quarks ud. The system is treated in the Born-Oppenheimer approximation and we use the emergent wave method. We focus on the isospin I=0 channel, but consider different orbital angular momenta l of the heavy antiquarks b¯b¯. We extract the phase shifts and search for S and T matrix poles on the second Riemann sheet. For orbital angular momentum l=1 we find a tetraquark resonance with quantum numbers I(JP)=0(1−), resonance mass m=10576+4−4MeV and decay width Γ=112+90−103MeV, which can decay into two B mesons.

We study tetraquark resonances for a pair of static antiquarks b¯b¯ in presence of two light quarks ud based on lattice QCD potentials. The system is treated in the Born-Oppenheimer approximation and we use the emergent wave method. We focus on the isospin I = 0 channel but take different angular momenta l of the heavy antiquarks b¯b¯ into account. Further calculations have already predicted a bound state for the l = 0 case with quantum numbers I(JP) = 0(1+). Performing computations for several angular momenta, we extract the phase shifts and search for T and S matrix poles in the second Riemann sheet. For angular momentum l = 1, we predict a tetraquark resonance with quantum numbers I(JP) = 0(1−), resonance mass m = 10576+4−4 MeV and decay width Γ = 112+90−103 MeV, which decays into two B mesons.
The procedure for the energy calibration of the high granularity electromagnetic calorimeter PHOS of the ALICE experiment is presented. The methods used to perform the relative gain calibration, to evaluate the geometrical alignment and the corresponding correction of the absolute energy scale, to obtain the nonlinearity correction coefficients and finally, to calculate the time-dependent calibration corrections, are discussed and illustrated by the PHOS performance in proton-proton (pp) collisions at s√=13 TeV. After applying all corrections, the achieved mass resolution of π0 and η mesons for pT>1.7 GeV/c is σπ0m=4.56±0.03 MeV/c2 and σηm=15.3±1.0 MeV/c2.

The changing shape of the rapidity spectrum of net protons over the SPS energy range is still lacking theoretical understanding. In this work, a model for string excitation and string fragmentation is implemented for the description of high energy collisions within a hadronic transport approach. The free parameters of the string model are tuned to reproduce the experimentally measured particle production in proton-proton collisions. With the fixed parameters we advance to calculations for heavy ion collisions, where the shape of the proton rapidity spectrum changes from a single peak to a double peak structure with increasing beam energy in the experiment. We present calculations of proton rapidity spectra at different SPS energies in heavy ion collisions. Qualitatively, a good agreement with the experimental findings is obtained. In a future work, the formation process of string fragments will be studied in detail aiming to quantitatively reproduce the measurement.
We examine the possibility of reformulating quantum theory (QT) as a deterministic ensemble theory which (a) interprets observables as objective properties of physical systems and (b) coincides with QT in all quantitative statements. As will be demonstrated, such an Ensemble-Quantum-Theory (EQT) can only be constructed if (1) one accepts a modified observable-concept, and (2) as long as the theory of measurement is left out of account. A correct treatment of the measuring process is impossible within such an EQT. Consequently, there exist no Hidden-Variable Theories with the properties (a) and (b).
Possible hadronization of supercooled QGP, created in heavy ion collisions at RHIC and SPS, is discussed within a Bjorken hydrodynamic model. Such a hadronization is expected to be a very fast shock-like process, what, if hadronization coincides or shortly followed by freeze out, could explain a part of the HBT puzzle, i.e., the flash-like particle emission (Rout/Rside≈1). HBT data also show that the expansion time before freeze out is very short (∼6–10 fm/c). In this Letter we discuss the question of supercooled QGP and the timescale of the reaction.
We study the well-known resonance ψ(4040), corresponding to a 33S1 charm–anticharm vector state ψ(3S), within a QFT approach, in which the decay channels into DD, D∗D, D∗D∗, DsDs and D∗s Ds are considered. The spectral function shows sizable deviations from a Breit–Wigner shape (an enhancement, mostly generated by DD∗loops, occurs); moreover, besides the c ¯ c pole of ψ(4040), a second dynamically generated broad pole at 4 GeV emerges. Naively, it is tempting to identify this new pole with the unconfirmed state Y (4008). Yet, this state was not seen inthe reaction e+e− → ψ(4040) → DD∗, but in processes with π+π−J/ψ in the final state. A detailed study shows a related but different mechanism: a broad peak at 4GeV in the process e+e− → ψ(4040) → DD∗ → π+π−J/ψ appears when DD∗ loops are considered. Its existence in this reaction is not necessarily connected to the existence of a dynamically generated pole, but the underlying mechanism – the strong coupling of c ¯ c to DD∗ loops – can generate both of them. Thus, the controversial state Y (4008) may not be a genuine resonance, but a peak generated by the ψ(4040) and D∗D loops with π+π−J/ψ in the final state.
In non-hadronic axion models, which have a tree-level axion-electron interaction, the Sun produces a strong axion flux by bremsstrahlung, Compton scattering, and axiorecombination, the "BCA processes." Based on a new calculation of this flux, including for the first time axio-recombination, we derive limits on the axion-electron Yukawa coupling gae and axion-photon interaction strength ga using the CAST phase-I data (vacuum phase). For ma <~ 10 meV/c2 we find ga gae < 8.1 × 10−23 GeV−1 at 95% CL. We stress that a next-generation axion helioscope such as the proposed IAXO could push this sensitivity into a range beyond stellar energy-loss limits and test the hypothesis that white-dwarf cooling is dominated by axion emission.
We study properties of compact stars with the deconfinement phase transition in their interiors. The equation of state of cold baryon-rich matter is constructed by combining a relativistic mean-field model for the hadronic phase and the MIT Bag model for the deconfined phase. In a narrow parameter range two sequences of compact stars (twin stars), which differ by the size of the quark core, have been found. We demonstrate the possibility of a rapid transition between the twin stars with the energy release of about 1052 ergs. This transition should be accompanied by the prompt neutrino burst and the delayed gamma-ray burst.
In this Letter, the ALICE Collaboration presents the first measurements of the charged-particle multiplicity density, dNch/dη, and total charged-particle multiplicity, Ntotch, in Xe-Xe collisions at a centre-of-mass energy per nucleon--nucleon pair of sNN−−−√ = 5.44 TeV. The measurements are performed as a function of collision centrality over a wide pseudorapidity range of −3.5<η<5. The values of dNch/dη at mid-rapidity and Ntotch for central collisions, normalised to the number of nucleons participating in the collision (Npart) as a function of sNN−−−√, follow the trends established in previous heavy-ion measurements. The same quantities are also found to increase as a function of Npart, and up to the 5% most central collisions the trends are the same as the ones observed in Pb-Pb at a similar energy. For more central collisions, the Xe-Xe scaled multiplicities exceed those in Pb-Pb for a similar Npart. The results are compared to phenomenological models and theoretical calculations based on different mechanisms for particle production in nuclear collisions. All considered models describe the data reasonably well within 15%.

The inclusive J/ψ meson production in Pb-Pb collisions at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon-nucleon collision of sNN−−−√ = 5.02 TeV at midrapidity (|y| < 0.9) is reported by the ALICE Collaboration. The measurements are performed in the dielectron decay channel, as a function of event centrality and J/ψ transverse momentum pT, down to pT = 0 GeV/c. The J/ψ mean transverse momentum ⟨pT⟩ and rAA ratio, defined as ⟨p2T⟩PbPb/⟨p2T⟩pp, are evaluated. Both observables show a centrality dependence decreasing towards central (head-on) collisions. The J/ψ nuclear modification factor RAA exhibits a strong pT dependence with a large suppression at high pT and an increase to unity for decreasing pT. When integrating over the measured momentum range pT < 10 GeV/c, the J/ψ RAA shows a weak centrality dependence. Each measurement is compared with results at lower center-of-mass energies and with ALICE measurements at forward rapidity, as well as to theory calculations. All reported features of the J/ψ production at low pT are consistent with a dominant contribution to the J/ψ yield originating from charm quark (re)combination.
Mid-rapidity production of π±, K± and (p¯)p measured by the ALICE experiment at the LHC, in Pb-Pb and inelastic pp collisions at sNN−−−√ = 5.02 TeV, is presented. The invariant yields are measured over a wide transverse momentum (pT) range from hundreds of MeV/c up to 20 GeV/c. The results in Pb-Pb collisions are presented as a function of the collision centrality, in the range 0−90%. The comparison of the pT-integrated particle ratios, i.e. proton-to-pion (p/π) and kaon-to-pion (K/π) ratios, with similar measurements in Pb-Pb collisions at sNN−−−√ = 2.76 TeV show no significant energy dependence. Blast-wave fits of the pT spectra indicate that in the most central collisions radial flow is slightly larger at 5.02 TeV with respect to 2.76 TeV. Particle ratios (p/π, K/π) as a function of pT show pronounced maxima at pT ≈ 3 GeV/c in central Pb-Pb collisions. At high pT, particle ratios at 5.02 TeV are similar to those measured in pp collisions at the same energy and in Pb-Pb collisions at sNN−−−√ = 2.76 TeV. Using the pp reference spectra measured at the same collision energy of 5.02 TeV, the nuclear modification factors for the different particle species are derived. Within uncertainties, the nuclear modification factor is particle species independent for high pT and compatible with measurements at sNN−−−√ = 2.76 TeV. The results are compared to state-of-the-art model calculations, which are found to describe the observed trends satisfactorily.
The inclusive J/ψ meson production in Pb–Pb collisions at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon–nucleon collision of sNN=5.02 TeV at midrapidity (|y|<0.9) is reported by the ALICE Collaboration. The measurements are performed in the dielectron decay channel, as a function of event centrality and J/ψ transverse momentum pT, down to pT=0. The J/ψ mean transverse momentum 〈pT〉 and rAA ratio, defined as 〈pT2〉PbPb/〈pT2〉pp, are evaluated. Both observables show a centrality dependence decreasing towards central (head-on) collisions. The J/ψ nuclear modification factor RAA exhibits a strong pT dependence with a large suppression at high pT and an increase to unity for decreasing pT. When integrating over the measured momentum range pT<10 GeV/c, the J/ψ RAA shows a weak centrality dependence. Each measurement is compared with results at lower center-of-mass energies and with ALICE measurements at forward rapidity, as well as to theory calculations. All reported features of the J/ψ production at low pT are consistent with a dominant contribution to the J/ψ yield originating from charm quark (re)combination.
Measurements of charged jet production as a function of centrality are presented for p-Pb collisions recorded at sNN−−−√=5.02 TeV with the ALICE detector. Centrality classes are determined via the energy deposit in neutron calorimeters at zero degree, close to the beam direction, to minimise dynamical biases of the selection. The corresponding number of participants or binary nucleon-nucleon collisions is determined based on the particle production in the Pb-going rapidity region. Jets have been reconstructed in the central rapidity region from charged particles with the anti-kT algorithm for resolution parameters R=0.2 and R=0.4 in the transverse momentum range 20 to 120 GeV/c. The reconstructed jet momentum and yields have been corrected for detector effects and underlying-event background. In the five centrality bins considered, the charged jet production in p-Pb collisions is consistent with the production expected from binary scaling from pp collisions. The ratio of jet yields reconstructed with the two different resolution parameters is also independent of the centrality selection, demonstrating the absence of major modifications of the radial jet structure in the reported centrality classes.

The inclusive transverse momentum (pT) distributions of primary charged particles are measured in the pseudo-rapidity range |η|<0.8 as a function of event centrality in Pb–Pb collisions at √sNN=2.76 TeV with ALICE at the LHC. The data are presented in the pT range 0.15<pT<50 GeV/c for nine centrality intervals from 70–80% to 0–5%. The results in Pb–Pb are presented in terms of the nuclear modification factor RAA using a pp reference spectrum measured at the same collision energy. We observe that the suppression of high-pT particles strongly depends on event centrality. The yield is most suppressed in central collisions (0–5%) with RAA≈0.13 at pT=6–7 GeV/c. Above pT=7 GeV/c, there is a significant rise in the nuclear modification factor, which reaches RAA≈0.4 for pT>30 GeV/c. In peripheral collisions (70–80%), only moderate suppression (RAA=0.6–0.7) and a weak pT dependence is observed. The measured nuclear modification factors are compared to other measurements and model calculations.
The nuclear modification factor, RAA, of the prompt charmed mesons D0, D+ and D∗+, and their antiparticles, was measured with the ALICE detector in Pb-Pb collisions at a centre-of-mass energy sNN−−−√=2.76 TeV in two transverse momentum intervals, 5<pT<8 GeV/c and 8<pT<16 GeV/c, and in six collision centrality classes. The RAA shows a maximum suppression of a factor of 5-6 in the 10% most central collisions. The suppression and its centrality dependence are compatible within uncertainties with those of charged pions. A comparison with the RAA of non-prompt J/ψ from B meson decays, measured by the CMS Collaboration, hints at a larger suppression of D mesons in the most central collisions.

We present a measurement of inclusive J/ψ production in p-Pb collisions at sNN−−−√ = 5.02 TeV as a function of the centrality of the collision, as estimated from the energy deposited in the Zero Degree Calorimeters. The measurement is performed with the ALICE detector down to zero transverse momentum, pT, in the backward (−4.46<ycms<−2.96) and forward (2.03<ycms<3.53) rapidity intervals in the dimuon decay channel and in the mid-rapidity region (−1.37<ycms<0.43) in the dielectron decay channel. The backward and forward rapidity intervals correspond to the Pb-going and p-going direction, respectively. The pT-differential J/ψ production cross section at backward and forward rapidity is measured for several centrality classes, together with the corresponding average pT and p2T values. The nuclear modification factor, QpPb, is presented as a function of centrality for the three rapidity intervals, and, additionally, at backward and forward rapidity, as a function of pT for several centrality classes. At mid- and forward rapidity, the J/ψ yield is suppressed up to 40% compared to that in pp interactions scaled by the number of binary collisions. The degree of suppression increases towards central p-Pb collisions at forward rapidity, and with decreasing pT of the J/ψ. At backward rapidity, the QpPb is compatible with unity within the total uncertainties, with an increasing trend from peripheral to central p-Pb collisions.

The inclusive production of the J/ψ and ψ(2S) charmonium states is studied as a function of centrality in p-Pb collisions at a centre-of-mass energy per nucleon pair sNN−−−√ = 8.16 TeV at the LHC. The measurement is performed in the dimuon decay channel with the ALICE apparatus in the centre-of-mass rapidity intervals −4.46 < ycms < −2.96 (Pb-going direction) and 2.03 < ycms < 3.53 (p-going direction), down to zero transverse momentum (pT). The J/ψ and ψ(2S) production cross sections are evaluated as a function of the collision centrality, estimated through the energy deposited in the zero degree calorimeter located in the Pb-going direction. The pT-differential J/ψ production cross section is measured at backward and forward rapidity for several centrality classes, together with the corresponding average 〈pT〉 and ⟨p2T⟩ values. The nuclear effects affecting the production of both charmonium states are studied using the nuclear modification factor. In the p-going direction, a suppression of the production of both charmonium states is observed, which seems to increase from peripheral to central collisions. In the Pb-going direction, however, the centrality dependence is different for the two states: the nuclear modification factor of the J/ψ increases from below unity in peripheral collisions to above unity in central collisions, while for the ψ(2S) it stays below or consistent with unity for all centralities with no significant centrality dependence. The results are compared with measurements in p-Pb collisions at sNN−−−√ = 5.02 TeV and no significant dependence on the energy of the collision is observed. Finally, the results are compared with theoretical models implementing various nuclear matter effects.

We report on the measurement of freeze-out radii for pairs of identical-charge pions measured in Pb--Pb collisions at sNN−−−√=2.76 TeV as a function of collision centrality and the average transverse momentum of the pair kT. Three-dimensional sizes of the system (femtoscopic radii), as well as direction-averaged one-dimensional radii are extracted. The radii decrease with kT, following a power-law behavior. This is qualitatively consistent with expectations from a collectively expanding system, produced in hydrodynamic calculations. The radii also scale linearly with ⟨dNch/dη⟩1/3. This behaviour is compared to world data on femtoscopic radii in heavy-ion collisions. While the dependence is qualitatively similar to results at smaller sNN−−−√, a decrease in the Rout/Rside ratio is seen, which is in qualitative agreement with specific predictions from hydrodynamic models. The results provide further evidence for the production of a collective, strongly coupled system in heavy-ion collisions at the LHC.
