The Fisher information constitutes a natural measure for the sensitivity of a probability distribution with respect to a set of parameters. An implementation of the stationarity principle for synaptic learning in terms of the Fisher information results in a Hebbian self-limiting learning rule for synaptic plasticity. In the present work, we study the dependence of the solutions to this rule in terms of the moments of the input probability distribution and find a preference for non-Gaussian directions, making it a suitable candidate for independent component analysis (ICA). We confirm in a numerical experiment that a neuron trained under these rules is able to find the independent components in the non-linear bars problem. The specific form of the plasticity rule depends on the transfer function used, becoming a simple cubic polynomial of the membrane potential for the case of the rescaled error function. The cubic learning rule is also an excellent approximation for other transfer functions, as the standard sigmoidal, and can be used to show analytically that the proposed plasticity rules are selective for directions in the space of presynaptic neural activities characterized by a negative excess kurtosis.
We present an effective model for timing-dependent synaptic plasticity (STDP) in terms of two interacting traces, corresponding to the fraction of activated NMDA receptors and the concentration in the dendritic spine of the postsynaptic neuron. This model intends to bridge the worlds of existing simplistic phenomenological rules and highly detailed models, thus constituting a practical tool for the study of the interplay of neural activity and synaptic plasticity in extended spiking neural networks. For isolated pairs of pre- and postsynaptic spikes, the standard pairwise STDP rule is reproduced, with appropriate parameters determining the respective weights and timescales for the causal and the anticausal contributions. The model contains otherwise only three free parameters, which can be adjusted to reproduce triplet nonlinearities in hippocampal culture and cortical slices. We also investigate the transition from time-dependent to rate-dependent plasticity occurring for both correlated and uncorrelated spike patterns.
Generating functionals may guide the evolution of a dynamical system and constitute a possible route for handling the complexity of neural networks as relevant for computational intelligence.We propose and explore a new objective function, which allows to obtain plasticity rules for the afferent synaptic weights. The adaption rules are Hebbian, self-limiting, and result from the minimization of the Fisher information with respect to the synaptic flux. We perform a series of simulations examining the behavior of the new learning rules in various circumstances.The vector of synaptic weights aligns with the principal direction of input activities, whenever one is present. A linear discrimination is performed when there are two or more principal directions; directions having bimodal firing-rate distributions, being characterized by a negative excess kurtosis, are preferred. We find robust performance and full homeostatic adaption of the synaptic weights results as a by-product of the synaptic flux minimization. This self-limiting behavior allows for stable online learning for arbitrary durations.The neuron acquires new information when the statistics of input activities is changed at a certain point of the simulation, showing however, a distinct resilience to unlearn previously acquired knowledge. Learning is fast when starting with randomly drawn synaptic weights and substantially slower when the synaptic weights are already fully adapted.
Im Rahmen des FAIR Projekts sollen in den Ringbeschleunigern SIS18 und SIS100 Ionenstrahlen mit höchster Intensität beschleunigt werden. Um die Raumladungsgrenze zu erhöhen, werden dazu Ionen mit mittleren Ladungszuständen verwendet. Diese haben aber größere Wirkungsquerschnitte für Umladung in Wechselwirkungen mit im Strahlvakuum vorhandenen Restgasteilchen als hochgeladene Ionen. Kommt es zu Strahlverlusten, lösen die verlorenen Ionen am Auftreffort weitere Restgasteilchen von den Wänden des Strahlrohrs und erhöhen so lokal die Restgasdichte. Die Qualität des Vakuums ist deshalb für einen stabilen Strahlbetrieb essentiell.
Im SIS100 kommen kryogene Vakuumkammern zum Einsatz, deren Wände als Kryosorptionspumpen für Wasserstoff und Helium dienen und alle schwereren Restgaskomponenten durch Kryokondensation binden können. Um die Vorhersagegenauigkeit des abteilungsinternen Programms „StrahlSim“ zur Simulation des dynamischen Vakuums zu verbessern, wurden im Rahmen dieser Arbeit das Saugvermögen und die Pumpkapazität für Wasserstoff auf einer Edelstahloberfläche untersucht.
Dazu wurde ein UHV Teststand entwickelt und aufgebaut. Dieser besteht aus einem warmen Diagnoseteil, mit dem der Gasfluss in und aus dem kalten Teil überwacht werden kann. Im kalten Teil befindet sich eine kleine Kammer mit Edelstahlwänden, für die verschiedene Temperaturen zwischen 7 und 31 K eingestellt werden können. Diese Kammer repräsentiert ein kleines Stück kryogenes Strahlrohr. Bei verschiedenen Temperaturen und Oberflächenbelegungen wurden dort jeweils das Saugvermögen und der sich einstellende Gleichgewichtsdruck im Bereich von 4E-11 bis 2E-7 mbar gemessen. Die Gleichgewichtsdrücke bei einer bestimmten Temperatur bei wachsender Oberflächenbelegung werden als Adsorptionsisotherme bezeichnet. Sie ergeben sich aus dem Gleichgewicht von thermisch desorbierenden Teilchen und deren Readsorption. Die kalte Kammer wird umgeben von einem Kryostaten, bestehend aus thermischem Schild und Außentank. Für diesen wurde die thermische Auslegung durchgeführt, die Konstruktion erfolgte extern.
Aus dem gemessenen Saugvermögen konnte die Haftwahrscheinlichkeit berechnet werden. Sie stellte sich als im Rahmen der Messgenauigkeit als unabhängig von Belegung und Temperatur heraus. Ihr Wert liegt nahe 1 mit einer Unsicherheit bis 0,1. Da sämtliche Oberflächen in den kryogenen Bereichen als Pumpen wirken, ist dieser Wert mehr als ausreichend um die für den stabilen Strahlbetrieb nötigen Vakuumbedingungen zu erreichen und stabil zu halten.
Die Isothermen hingegen sind stark von der Temperatur abhängig. Über 18 K liegen die Gleichgewichtsdrücke bereits bei minimalen Oberflächenbelegungen in für den Strahlbetrieb nicht tolerierbaren Bereichen. Mit sinkender Temperatur können die Oberflächen immer mehr Gas aufnehmen. Doch auch bei den tiefsten vermessenen Temperaturen zwischen 7 und 8 K ist ein stabiler Strahlbetrieb nur bei Belegungen von deutlich unter einer halben Monolage, etwa 5E14 Wasserstoffmoleküle pro cm², möglich.
Diese Ergebnisse wurden in StrahlSim implementiert. Zunächst wurde der Code für die Simulation von teilweise kryogenen Beschleunigern angepasst. Die wichtigste Änderung war die Einführung von thermischer Transpiration. Sie bewirkt, dass die Restgasteilchendichte an Kalt-Warm-Übergängen auf der kalten Seite erhöht ist. Mit dieser Änderung und den implementierten Ergebnissen aus den Messungen wurden Simulationen für das SIS100 durchgeführt. Mit den Isothermen konnten die bei verschiedenen Temperaturen und Bedeckungen zu erwartenden Durchschnittsdichten berechnet werden, die wiederum bestimmend für die Strahlverluste sind. Des Weiteren wurde ein mehrwöchiger Dauerbetrieb simuliert. Es zeigt sich zunächst eine Verschlechterung der Vakuumbedingungen auf Grund der langsamen Sättigung der Oberflächen. Diese verlangsamt sich aber immer mehr und stabilisiert sich bevor zu hohe Restgasdichten auftreten. Im schlechtesten Fall sind die kryogenen Oberflächen so weit gesättigt, dass sie genauso viele Gasteilchen thermisch desorbieren wie sie adsorbieren, sie also praktisch passiv sind. Auch dann wäre die Gleichgewichtsdichte im Beschleuniger noch tief genug, um Verluste durch Umladung hinreichend niedrig zu halten.
Als problematisch könnten sich hingegen dynamische Temperaturerhöhungen der Kammerwände erweisen. In diesem Fall stellt sich praktisch verzögerungsfrei der durch die neue Isotherme definierte Gleichgewichtsdruck ein, der auch bei wenigen Kelvin Temperaturunterschied bereits um mehrere Größenordnungen höher liegen kann. Sind Temperaturerhöhungen während des Betriebs zu erwarten, sollten die Oberflächen so frei wie möglich von Wasserstoff gehalten werden. Dazu kann man sich eben diesen Effekt zunutze machen: Durch temporäres Anwärmen der Oberflächen unmittelbar vor dem Strahlbetrieb können die Oberflächen schnell von Wasserstoff befreit werden, der dann von lokalisierten Pumpen aus dem System entfernt werden kann.
Eine möglichst realistische Abschätzung von Strahlenschäden ist von entscheidender Bedeutung im Strahlenschutz und für die Strahlentherapie. Die primären Strahlenschäden an der DNS werden heute mit Monte-Carlo-Codes berechnet. Diese Codes benötigen möglichst genaue Fragmentierungsquerschnitte verschiedenster biomolekularer Systeme als Eingangsparameter. Im Rahmen der vorliegenden Arbeit wurde ein Experiment aufgebaut, welches die Bestimmung der Fragmentierungsquerschnitte von Biomolekülen ermöglicht. Die einzelnen Baugruppen des Aufbaus wurden vor dem Beginn des Experimentes bezüglich ihrer Eigenschaften, die die Genauigkeit der Messergebnisse beeinflussen können, charakterisiert. Die Resultate dieser Experimente werden als Eingangsdaten für die Berechnung von primären strahleninduzierten Schäden in der DNS mit Hilfe von Monte-Carlo-Codes eingesetzt.
Eine besondere Herausforderung stellte die Präparation eines Überschallgasstrahls für biomolekulare Substanzen dar. Für die Präparation müssen die Targetsubstanzen zunächst in die Gasphase überführt werden. Im Falle von Biomolekülen ist diese Überführung auf Grund ihrer niedrigen Dampfdrücke bei Raumtemperatur und chemischen Reaktivität mit technischen Problemen verbunden. Die Probleme wurden mittels einer speziellen Konstruktion der Präparationseinrichtung, welche eine direkte Einleitung der Probensubstanzen in die vom Trägergas durchströmte Mischkammer ermöglicht, gelöst. Für die Genauigkeit der gemessenen Fragmentierungsquerschnitte spielen mehrere Faktoren eine Rolle. Neben dem Bewegungsprofil des Überschallgasstrahls, den kinetischen Energien der Fragmentionen und den ionenoptischen Eigenschaften des Flugzeitspektrometers beeinflusst die geometrische Beschaffenheit der Detektionszone maßgeblich die Genauigkeit des Experimentes. Die Position und Ausdehnung des sichtbaren Volumens sind nicht nur durch den Überlappungsbereich zwischen dem Elektronen- und dem Überschallgasstrahl bestimmt, sondern hängen auch von der kinetischen Energie der Fragmente ab. Für dessen Ermittlung wurden daher auch die Trajektorien der Fragmente simuliert. Bei den Experimenten an der PTB-Apparatur ist die frei wählbare Zeitdifferenz zwischen dem Auslösen eines Elektronenpulses und dem Absaugen der Fragmentionen ein wichtiger Messparameter. Ihr Einfluss auf die Messergebnisse wurde ebenfalls neben der Nachweiswahrscheinlichkeit des verwendeten Ionendetektors untersucht. Die Kalibrierung der Flugzeitspektren, d. h. die Umwandlung der Flugzeitspektren in Massenspektren erfolgte anhand der bekannten Flugzeitspektren von Edelgasen und Wasserstoff.
Nach der Charakterisierung der Einflussfaktoren und Kalibrierung der Flugzeitspektren wurden die energieabhängigen Fragmentierungsquerschnitte für Elektronenstoß von mehreren organischen Molekülen, darunter die von Modellmolekülen für die DNS-Bausteine gemessen. Die Flugzeitspektren von THF wurden mit der PTB-Apparatur für einige kinetische Energien der Elektronen in Abhängigkeit von der Zeitdifferenz zwischen dem Auslösen des Elektronenpulses und dem Starten der Analyse durchgeführt. Messungen von Pyrimidin wurden sowohl an der PTB-Apparatur als auch mit COLTRIMS durchgeführt. Die mit COLTRIMS gewonnenen Ergebnisse liefern wichtige Zusatzinformationen über die Fragmentierungsprozesse. COLTRIMS ermöglicht die Messung der zeitlichen Korrelationen zwischen den auftretenden Fragmentionen und damit tiefere Einblicke in die bei der Entstehung der Fragmente beteiligten Reaktionskanäle. Der Vorteil der PTB-Apparatur besteht darin, dass die relativen Auftrittswahrscheinlichkeiten aller Fragmentionen genauer bestimmt werden können.
In der Atom- und Molekülphysik werden häufig Multichannelplate Detektoren mit Delay-Line-Auslese eingesetzt. Um eine große Präzision und eine hohe Reaktionsrate zu erhalten, ist es wichtig, dass alle Daten genau analysiert werden können. Die aktuelle Methode der Datenanalyse stößt dabei auf Probleme, wenn mehrere Teilchen kurz hintereinander auf den Detektor treffen. In dieser Arbeit wird versucht, ein neuronales Netz so zu trainieren, dass es eine bessere Datenanalyse liefert. Hierzu wird im ersten Kapitel der Detektoraufbau beschrieben, um zu verstehen, woher die einzelnen Signale kommen und wie sie zu interpretieren sind. Im zweiten Kapitel wird dann die Theorie vorgestellt, auf der neuronale Netze basieren. Das dritte Kapitel gibt einen kurzen Überblick über die benutzte Technik. Im vierten und fünften Kapitel werden die Ergebnisse dieser Arbeit vorgestellt. Im abschließenden sechsten Kapitel werden die Ergebnisse zusammengefasst und ein Ausblick auf weitere mögliche Projekte gegeben.
Construction and commissioning of a setup to study ageing phenomena in high rate gas detectors
(2014)
In high-rate heavy-ion experiments, gaseous detectors encounter big challenges in terms of degradation of their performance due to a phenomenon dubbed ageing. In this thesis, a setup for high precision ageing studies has been constructed and commissioned at the GSI detector laboratory. The main objective is the study of ageing phenomena evoked by materials used to build gaseous detectors for the Compressed Baryonic Matter (CBM) experiment at the future Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR).
The precision of the measurement, e.g., of the gain of a gaseous detector, is a key element in ageing studies: it allows to perform the measurement at realistic rates in an acceptable time span. It is well known the accelerating ageing employing high intensity sources might produce misleading results. The primary objective is to build an apparatus which allows very accurate measurements and is thus sensitive to minute degradations in detector performance. The construction and commissioning of the
setup has been carried out in two steps. During the first step of this work, a simpler setup which already existed in the detector laboratory of GSI had been utilised to define all conditions related to ageing studies. The outcome of these studies defined the properties and characteristics that must be met to build and operate a new, sophisticated and precise setup. The already existing setup consisted of two identical Multi Wire Proportional Chambers (MWPCs), a gas mixing station, an 55Fe source, an x-ray generator, an outgassing box and stainless steel tubing. In a first step, the gain and electric field configuration of the MWPCs were simulated by a combination of a gas simulation (Magboltz) and electric field simulation program (Garfield). The performance and operating conditions of the chambers have been thoroughly characterised before utilising them in first preparatory ageing test. The main diagnostic parameter in ageing studies is the detector gain, thus it is mandatory for precise ageing studies to minimise the systematic and statistical variation of the pressure and temperature corrected gain. To achieve the required accuracy, several improvements of the chamber design and the gas system have been implemented. In addition, the temperature measurement has been optimised. During the preparatory tests, several ageing studies have been carried out. The ageing effect of seven materials and gases have been carried out during these tests: RTV-3145, Ar/CO2 gas, Durostone flushed with Ar/Isobutane gas, Vetronit G11, Vetronit G11 contaminated with Micro 3000 and Gerband 705. The results of these studies went into the design of the new sophisticated ageing setup. For example some tests revealed that there was, even after cleaning, a certain level of contamination with "ageing agents" in the existing setup, which made it imperative to ensure a very high level cleanness of all components during the construction of the setup. The curing period of some testing samples like glues or the gas flow rate were found to be very important factors that must be taken into account to obtain comparable results. Very important changes in the chamber design have been made, i.e., the aluminium-Kapton cathodes used in MWPCs have been replaced with multi-wire planes and the fibreglass housing of the chamber has been changed to metal. The second step started with building the new setup which was designed based on the findings from the first step. The new ageing setup consists of three MWPCs, two moving platforms, an 55Fe source, a copper-anode x-ray generator, two outgassing boxes, both flexible and rigid stainless steel tubes. Before fabrication of the chambers, simulations of their electric field and the gain have been done using Magboltz and Garfield programs. After that, the chambers were installed and tested. A 0.3% peak-to-peak residual variation of the corrected gain has been achieved. Finally, the complete setup has been operated with full functionality in no-ageing conditions during one week. This test revealed very stable gain in all three chambers. After that two materials (Gerban 705 and RTV-3145) have been inserted in the two outgassing boxes and tested. They revealed an ageing rate of about 0.3%/mC/cm and 3%/mC/cm respectively. The final test proves the stability and accuracy of the ageing measurements carried out with the ageing setup at the detector laboratory at GSI which is ready to conduct the envisaged systematic ageing studies.
The Compressed Baryonic Matter (CBM) experiment will explore the phase diagram of strongly interacting matter in the region of high net baryonic densities. The matter at these extreme conditions will be produced and studied in heavy-ion collisions with a fixed target set-up.
The present work is dedicated to the main component of the CBM experiment - the Silicon Tracking System (STS). The STS comprises of 8 tracking stations with 1292 double sided silicon microstrip sensors. The STS has to enable the reconstruction of up to 1000 charged particle tracks per nucleus-nucleus interaction at the rate of up to 10 MHz, provide a momentum resolution of Δp/p =1%, and withstand the radiation load of up to 1 x 1014 neq/cm2 (neq — radiation dose of 1 MeV neutron equivalent). Self-triggering read-out electronics will be located on the periphery of the detecting planes, and connected to the sensors with low mass micro-cables.
During the R&D phase, as well as in the pre-series and series production phase, the characterization of the sensors, of the front-end electronics and of the complete detector modules has to be performed. It is evident that characterization of more than 1000 silicon microstrip sensors and later of complete detector modules is very time-consuming, and may even damage the objects if not performed carefully. One of the goals of this work was to develop a systematic procedure for the quality assurance for the double-sided silicon microstrip sensors. This includes static optical inspection and visual tests, passive electrical test (such as leakage current, bulk capacitance, inter-strip capacitance & resistances, bias resistance and coupling capacitance), radiation hardness and long-term stability. A strategy for the quality assurance of these sensors is presented, defining the various tests to be performed and the documentation of the results. The techniques and quality assurance criteria will be applied for the pre-series and series production.
With decreasing feature size and increase in functionality and structures, the classical mechanical probe approach for internal fault detection and functional testing faces increasing challenges. In the field of silicon based chips and sensors there is rarely any analysis on the topic of non-invasive or contact-less probing and characterization, despite the fact that the contact-less probing is becoming more and more important as the fabrication technologies become smaller and more susceptible to the parasitic impact of mechanical probes. The silicon micro-strip double sided sensors used in STS have a complex structure, such as 1024 metal electrodes, 2048 bias resistors, 2048 DC pads and 4098 AC pads for probing, several guard rings, and even more in the 6.2 cm x 6.2 cm prototype sensor. Photo-intrusive technique is the best solution for the characterization and investigation of crucial parameters related to the detector operation and its functionality. A photo-intrusive probing is a method in which a non-invasive pulsed laser of a desired wavelength is used to inject the photon into the bulk and resulting in electron-hole pairs (e-h). In a completely depleted silicon sensor the charge injected (or generated) by the pulsed laser beam could be detected as current and shall be used for characterization.
A non-invasive contact-less Laser Test System (LTS) was developed based on a pulsed laser to investigate properties of the silicon sensors. The set-up is able to inject charge locally and scan sensors(or detector modules) with a pulsed infra-red laser driven by a step motor. The LTS is designed to measure sensor response in an automatized procedure at several thousand positions across the sensor with focused infra-
red laser light (spot size = 12 μm , wavelength = 1060 nm). The duration (10 ns) and power (5 mW) of the laser pulses are selected such that the absorption of the laser light in the 300 μm thick silicon sensors produces a number of about 24000 electrons, which is similar to the charge created by the minimum ionizing particles (MIP) in these sensors. The set-up was used to developed characterization procedures to determine the charge sharing between strips, and to measure a qualitative uniformity of the sensor response over the whole active area. The prototype sensors which are tested with the set-up are small prototype sensors (256 strips, pitch = 50 μm on each side) and full-size detector modules (1024 strips/side and pitch = 58 μm). They are read-out using a self-triggering prototype read-out electronic ASIC called n-XYTER. Laser scans for amplitude response, charge sharing in the inter-strip region, and spot-size determination technique are reported. For the verification of the some design parameters, unique methods of determining coupling capacitance, and inter-strip capacitance have been developed. The modules were also tested with proton beams, and the charge sharing in the inter-strip region has been compared to the laser test results.
The PANDA experiment at FAIR will study fundamental questions of strong interaction with high precision. Effcient particle identification for a wide momentum range and the full solid angle is required for successful reconstruction of the benchmark channels of the broad PANDA physics program. For this purpose a compact ring imaging Cherenkov detector is being developed for the barrel region of the PANDA detector. The concept and the baseline design of the PANDA Barrel DIRC were inspired by the BABAR DIRC and improved with important modifications, like fast photon timing, a compact expansion volume, and focusing optics. The required detector resolution was defined based on the PANDA PID specifications using the phase space distributions of the final state kaons produced in selected benchmark channels. To optimize the PANDA Barrel DIRC design in terms of performance and cost the baseline detector geometry and a number of design options were implemented in the simulation. The key options include the radiator dimensions, two types of expansion volume shapes, and a variety of focusing systems. The performance of the detector designs was quantified in terms of single photon Cherenkov angle resolution and photon yield. It was found that the number of radiators can be reduced by about 40% without loss in performance. A compound spherical lens without air gap was found to be a promising focusing system. An optimized Barrel DIRC design meeting the PID requirements includes three radiator bars per at section, the compound lens without air gap, a compact prism-shaped EV, and a total of 192 Microchannel-Plate PMTs as photosensors. The number of electronic channels can be halved without loss in performance by combining two neighbouring pixels. For such a detector design the total cost will be significantly reduced compared to the baseline version while still meeting or exceeding the PANDA PID performance goals.
In this work, the complex structure of ionization and dissociation pathways on the potential energy curves in small molecules were investigated that are initiated by the absorption of a sequence of multi-color pulses in the XUV, VUV, and IR spectrum. Femtosecond pump-probe spectroscopy was used to track the evolution of nuclear dynamics in neutral hydrogen molecules. Previously unpublished excitation and ionization pathways leading to the dissociative ionization of hydrogen molecules were investigated by employing 3D momentum imaging spectroscopy. These studies were extended to oxygen molecules where an XUV attosecond pulse train coherently ionized several electronic states of O2+ followed by the dissociation of the molecule via multiple pathways. The infrared electric field of the driving laser was then used to couple the electronic and nuclear wave-packets, thus, manipulating the dissociation dynamics of the molecule on an attosecond time scale.
In order to perform the experiments presented here, a novel experimental setup was developed and constructed. It combines an existing high-flux High Harmonic Generation light source that delivers attosecond pulse trains in the VUV and XUV spectrum with a state-of-the-art 3D momentum imaging apparatus (COLTRIMS), as well as a beamline consisting of several experimental tools enabling the selection, characterization, and propagation of the photon spectrum.

p-process nucleosynthesis via proton-capture reactions in thermonuclear supernovae explosions
(2015)
Model calculations within the framework of the so-called γ process show an underproduction of the p nucleus with the highest isotopic abundace 92Mo. This discrepancy can be narrowed by taking into account the alternative production site of a type Ia supernova explosion. Here, the nucleus 92Mo can be produced by a sequence of proton-capture reactions. The amount of 92Mo nuclei produced via this reaction chain is most sensitive to the reactions 90Zr(p,γ) and 91Nb(p,γ). Both rates have to be investigated experimentally to study the impact of this nucleosynthesis aspect on the long-standing 92Mo-problem. We have already measured the proton-capture reaction on 90Zr using high-resolution in-beam γ-ray spectroscopy. In this contribution, we will present our preliminary results of the total cross sections as well as the partial cross sections. Furthermore, we plan to measure the 91Nb(p,γ) reaction soon. Due to the radioactive target material, the 91Nb nuclei have to be produced prior to the experiment. The current status of this production will be presented in this contribution.
The phenomenon of magnetism has been known to humankind for at least over 2500 years and many useful applications of magnetism have been developed since then, starting from the compass to modern information storage and processing devices. While technological applications are an important part of the continuing interest in magnetic materials, their fundamental properties are still being studied, leading to new physical insights at the forefront of physics. The magnetism of magnetic materials is a pure quantum effect due to the electrons that carry an intrinsic spin of 1/2. The physics of interacting quantum spins in magnetic insulators is the main subject of this thesis.We focus here on a theoretical description of the antiferromagnetic insulator Cs2CuCl4. This material is highly interesting because it is a nearly ideal realization of the two-dimensional antiferromagnetic spin-1/2 Heisenberg model on an anisotropic triangular lattice, where the Cu(2+) ions carry a spin of 1/2 and the spins interact via exchange couplings. Due to the geometric frustration of the triangular lattice, there exists a spin-liquid phase with fractional excitations (spinons) at finite temperatures in Cs2CuCl4. This spin-liquid phase is characterized by strong short-range spin correlations without long-range order. From an experimental point of view, Cs2CuCl4 is also very interesting because the exchange couplings are relatively weak leading to a saturation field of only B_c=8.5 T. All relevant parts of the phase diagram are therefore experimentally accessible. A recurring theme in this thesis will be the use of bosonic or fermionic representations of the spin operators which each offer in different situations suitable starting points for an approximate treatment of the spin interactions. The methods which we develop in this thesis are not restricted to Cs2CuCl4 but can also be applied to other materials that can be described by the spin-1/2 Heisenberg model on a triangular lattice; one important example is the material class Cs2Cu(Cl{4-x}Br{x}) where chlorine is partially substituted by bromine which changes the strength of the exchange couplings and the degree of frustration.
Our first topic is the finite-temperature spin-liquid phase in Cs2CuCl4. We study this regime by using a Majorana fermion representation of the spin-1/2 operators motivated by theoretical and experimental evidence for fermionic excitations in this spin-liquid phase. Within a mean-field theory for the Majorana fermions, we determine the magnetic field dependence of the critical temperature for the crossover from spin-liquid to paramagnetic behavior and we calculate the specific heat and magnetic susceptibility in zero magnetic field. We find that the Majorana fermions can only propagate in one dimension along the direction of the strongest exchange coupling; this reduction of the effective dimensionality of excitations is known as dimensional reduction.
The second topic is the behavior of ultrasound propagation and attenuation in the spin-liquid phase of Cs2CuCl4, where we consider longitudinal sound waves along the direction of the strongest exchange coupling. Due to the dimensional reduction of the excitations in the spin-liquid phase, we expect that we can describe the ultrasound physics by a one-dimensional Heisenberg model coupled to the lattice degrees of freedom via the exchange-striction mechanism. For this one-dimensional problem we use the Jordan-Wigner transformation to map the spin-1/2 operators to spinless fermions. We treat the fermions within the self-consistent Hartree-Fock approximation and we calculate the change of the sound velocity and attenuation as a function of magnetic field using a perturbative expansion in the spin-phonon couplings. We compare our theoretical results with experimental data from ultrasound experiments, where we find good agreement between theory and experiment.
Our final topic is the behavior of Cs2CuCl4 in high magnetic fields larger than the saturation field B_c=8.5 T. At zero temperature, Cs2CuCl4 is then fully magnetized and the ground state is therefore a ferromagnet where the excitations have an energy gap. The elementary excitations of this ferromagnetic state are spin-flips (magnons) which behave as hard-core bosons. At finite temperatures there will be thermally excited magnons that interact via the hard-core interaction and via additional exchange interactions. We describe the thermodynamic properties of Cs2CuCl4 at finite temperatures and calculate experimentally observable quantities, e.g., magnetic susceptibility and specific heat. Our approach is based on a mapping of the spin-1/2 operators to hard-core bosons, where we treat the hard-core interaction by the self-consistent ladder approximation and the exchange interactions by the self-consistent Hartree-Fock approximation. We find that our theoretical results for the specific heat are in good agreement with the available experimental data.
Within this thesis, the mechanical integration of the Micro Vertex Detector (MVD) of the Compressed Baryonic Matter (CBM) experiment is developed. The CBM experiment, which is being set up at the future FAIR facility, aims to investigate the phase diagram of strongly interacting matter in the regime of high net-baryon densities and moderate temperatures. Heavy-ion collisions at beam energies in the range of 2 to 45 AGeV, complemented by results from elementary reactions, will allow access to these conditions. The experiments conducted at LHC (CERN, Switzerland) and at RHIC (BNL, USA = does not apply within the Beam Energy Scan program) so far focus on the investigation of the phase diagram in the regime of high temperatures and vanishing net-baryon densities. The high beam intensities provided by FAIR will enable CBM to focus its experimental program on systematical studies of rare particles. Among other particle species, open charm-carrying particles are one of the most promising observables to investigate the medium created in heavy-ion collisions since their charm quarks are exposed to the medium and traverse its whole evolution. The fact that the decay particles of these rare observables are also produced abundantly in direct processes in heavy-ion collisions results in a huge combinatorial background which attributes specific requirements to the detector systems. The call for a high interaction rate leads to a cutting-edge detector system which provides an excellent spatial resolution, thin detector stations and the capability to cope with the induced radiation as well as the high rate of traversing particles and the resulting track density. The required demands are to be implemented by the MVD which will be equipped with four planar stations positioned at 50, 100, 150 and 200 mm downstream the target. The geometrical acceptance, which has to be covered with charge-sensitive material, is defined according to the requirements of CBM in the polar angle range of [2.5°; 25°]. The MVD stations have to contribute as little as possible to the overall material budget. The expected beam intensity and the vicinity close to the target require silicon detectors that provide a hardness against non-ionizing radiation of more than 10^13 n_eq/cm² and against ionizing radiation of more than 1 Mrad. In addition, the read-out time of the sensors has to be as short as possible to avoid potential ambiguities in the particle tracking caused by the pile-up of hits having emerged from different collisions. For the time being, Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (MAPS) offer the optimal choice of technology required to address the physics program of CBM with respect to the spectroscopy of open charm and di-electrons. The geometrical properties of these sensors define the layout of the detector. To limit the multiple scattering of the produced particles inside the geometrical acceptance, the sensors and the MVD have to operate in a moderate vacuum. The sensors are thinned down to a thickness of 50 µm and, to achieve a maximum polar angle coverage, they are glued onto both sides of dedicated thin carriers. These carriers, which are made of highly thermally conductive materials such as CVD diamond or encapsulated TPG, allow efficient extraction of the power produced in the sensors. This enables their operation at temperatures well below 0 °C as suggested by corresponding radiation hardness studies. Dedicated actively cooled aluminum-based heat sinks are positioned outside of the acceptance to dissipate the heat produced by the sensors and the front-end electronics. The design of the MVD, including the realistic thicknesses of the integrated materials, has been developed and refined in the context of this thesis. It has been transformed into a unique software model which is used to simulate and further optimize the mechanical and thermal properties of the MVD, as well as in sophisticated physics simulations. The model allowed evaluation of the material budget of each individual MVD station in its geometrical acceptance. The calculated averaged material budget values stay well below the material budget target values demanded by the physics cases. The thermal management of the MVD has been simulated on the level of a quadrant of each MVD station – four identically constructed quadrants are forming an MVD station – taking into account material properties of the sensors, the glue and the sensor carrier. The temperature gradients across the pixels of a given sensor area in the direction of the rows and columns were found to be in an acceptable range of below 5 K. A temperature difference between the thermal interface area and the maximum sensor temperature of dT = 5 K on the first and a value of dT = 40 K on the fourth MVD station has been thermally simulated assuming a sensor power dissipation of 0.35 W/cm², highlighting the need to optimize the thermal interface between the involved materials as well as the power dissipation of the sensors. The feasibility of several key aspects required for the construction phase of the MVD has been investigated within the MVD Prototype project. The construction of the MVD Prototype allowed evaluation, testing and validation of the handling and the double-sided integration of ultra-thin sensors – the required working steps for their integration have been specified, evaluated and successfully established – as well as their operation in the laboratory and during a concluding in-beam test using high-energetic pions provided by the CERN-SPS. The thermal characterization of the MVD Prototype during its operation – in a temperature range from [5 °C; 25 °C], not in vacuum – confirmed the corresponding thermal simulations conducted during its design phase and substantiated the results of the thermal simulations for the design of the MVD. The aim of a material budget value of only x/X_0 ~ 0.3% for the MVD Prototype has been accomplished. Analyzing the in-beam data, the nominal sensor performance parameters were successfully reproduced, demonstrating that the proposed integration process does not impair the sensors’ performance. Moreover, no evidence of potential impact on the sensors’ performance arising from mechanical weaknesses of the MVD Prototype mechanics has been found within the analyzed data. Based on the MVD Prototype and the simulations of the material budget as well as the thermal management, this thesis evaluated the work packages, procedures and quality assurance parameters needed to set up the starting version of the MVD and addressed open questions as well as critical procedures to be studied prior to the production phase of the detector, emphasizing the evaluation of the cooling concept in vacuum and the integration of sensors in ladder structures on both sides of the quadrants of the MVD stations.
Das CBM-Experiment an der zukünftigen FAIR Beschleunigeranlage zielt unter anderem darauf, Open-Charm-Teilchen zu rekonstruieren, die in Schwerionenkollisionen im Energiebereich von 10 bis 40 AGeV erzeugt werden. Ein für diese Teilchenrekonstruktion essentieller Detektor ist der Mikro-Vertex-Detektor (MVD).
Im Rahmen der Entwicklungsarbeiten für diesen Detektor werden regelmäßig Detektorsimulationen durchgeführt. Bei einer dieser Simulationen [CAD11], wurden nach Einführung eines verbesserten Simulationsmodells des Detektors, Einbrüche in Rekonstruktionseffizienz für Open-Charm Teilchen festgestellt. Als mögliche Ursache wurde eine Überlastung der Software für die Spurrekonstruktion von CBM vermutet, die erstmals mit realistischen Trefferdichten auf den MVD-Stationen konfrontiert war. Zusätzlich wurde in der Simulation die Geometrie eines MVD mit nur zwei Detektorebenen verwendet. Auch der durch die kleine Anzahl an MVD-Stationen große Abstand zwischen MVD und STS (Silicon-Tracking-System) und dessen potentiell ungünstiger Einfluss auf die Spurrekonstruktion konnte als Ursache für den beobachteten Einbruch der Rekonstruktionseffizienz nicht ausgeschlossen werden.
Die Aufgabe dieser Arbeit bestand in der Prüfung, ob der beobachtete Einbruch der Rekonstruktionseffizienz des Detektorsystems tatsächlich auf eine Überlastung der Spurrekonstruktionssoftware zurückzuführen ist. Darüber hinaus sollte festgestellt werden, ob mögliche konstruktive Verbesserungen im MVD (zusätzliche Detektorstationen) diesem Effekt entgegen wirken können...
Am GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung in Darmstadt, wird für die Erweiterung der Forschungsmöglichkeiten am Bau des FAIR Projektes gearbeitet. Hierfür wird unter anderem ein Ringbeschleuniger gebaut (SIS100), der mit 100Tm den bestehenden Ring (SIS18) in magnetischer Steifigkeit ergänzen wird. Um SIS100 an SIS18 anzubinden, wird eine Transferstrecke benötigt, welche den Transfer von Ionen zwischen den Ringen übernimmt. In solchen Transferstrecken werden Quadrupollinsen mit hohen Gradienten benötigt. Ebenso werden für die finale Fokussierung von hochintensiven Strahlpulsen aus Synchrotronen auf Targets Linsen mit hohen Feldgradienten benötigt. Allerdings sind die Pulse nur sehr kurz und das Tastverhältnis bei Synchrotronen sehr klein. Daher sollte ein gepulster Fokussiermagnet entwickelt werden, der den hohen Gradientenanforderungen gerecht wird und sowohl platz- als auch energiesparend ist. Die vorliegende Arbeit befasst sich mit der Auslegung des elektrischen Schaltkreises, der Simulation des Magnetfeldes und der konstruktiven Umsetzung eines solchen gepulsten Quadrupols. Der elektrische Schaltkreis ist so ausgelegt, dass eine hohe Repetitionsrate zur Fokussierung für Teilchenpakete möglich ist. Die Linse wurde aus einer Luftspule ohne Eisenjoch aufgebaut. Die cos(2θ)-Verteilung des Stroms durch die Leiter wurde durch ein Design gesichert, welches den Skin-Effekt berücksichtigt und entsprechend ausgelegte Litzenkabel verwendet. Um die Magnetfeldverteilung des Fokussiermagneten zu untersuchen, wurden statische und transiente Simulationen mit dem Programm CST Mircowave Studio Suite vorgenommen. Zentraler Punkt bei der Neuentwicklung waren die Luftspulen. Um einen linearen Magnetfeldanstieg von der Strahlachse zum Aperturrand zu gewährleisten, muss die Stromverteilung in der Leiterspule so homogen wie möglich sein. Um bei Pulslängen von 170 µsec den Skineffekt zu berücksichtigen, wurde die Leiterspule aus HF-Litzen von je mehreren hundert Einzelleitern zusammengestellt, die jeweils gegeneinander isoliert und in Bündeln miteinander verdrillt sind. Außerdem wurde die Linse mit einer lamellierten Schirmung versehen, um das Magnetfeld effektiv nutzen zu können. Ziel der Auslegung war es, zusammen mit einem zweiten Quadrupol im Duplett einen Strahl mit einer magnetischen Steifigkeit von 11 Tm und einer Bunchlänge von 2µsec auf einen Punkt von 0,5 mm Radius zu fokussieren. Bei dem hierfür angestrebten Gradienten von 76 T/m wird eine maximale Stromamplitude von 400 kA benötigt. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wurde die Linse ausgelegt, konstruiert und gebaut. Die Funktionalität wurde untersucht und die Feldqualität wurde vermessen und zeigten die erwarteten Parameter. Bei 26 kA Messstrom wurden im Zentrum des Magneten ein maximaler Gradient von 4,5 T/m und Feldwerte von 0,11 T ermittelt. Somit liegt die Abweichung des gemessenen Gradienten bei ca. 5 %. Die durchgängige Umsetzung der homogenen Verteilung der Leiterbündel in der Luftspule und eine vollständige Kompensation des Skineffekts konnten nicht nachgewiesen werden. Jedoch konnte der Einfluss der Kabelzuleitung des Quadrupols auf den Magnetfeldverlauf in den Simulationen und Messungen nachgewiesen werden. Weiterhin wurde für den energieeffizienten Einsatz im Transferkanal zwischen SIS18 und SIS100 ein Energierückgewinnungsschaltkreis entwickelt, der eine Ersparnis von 84 % der Betriebsleistung ermöglicht.
The nature of spontaneous brain activity during wakefulness and sleep: a complex systems approach
(2014)
In this thesis we study the organization of spontaneous brain activity during wakefulness and all stages of human non-rapid eye movement sleep using an approach based on developments and tools from the theory of complex systems. After a brief introduction to sleep physiology and different theoretical models of consciousness, we study how the organization of cortical and sub-cortical interactions is modified during the sleep cycle. Our results, obtained by modeling global brain activity as a complex functional interaction network, show that the capacity of the human brain to integrate different segregated functional modules is diminished during deep sleep, in line with an informationintegration account of consciousness. We then show that integration is impaired not only across space but also in the temporal domain, by assesing the emergence of long-range temporal correlations in brain activity and how they are modified during sleep. We propose an encompassing explanation for this observation, namely, that the brain operatsat different dynamical regimes during different states of consciousness. Finally, we gather massive amounts of data from different collaborative projects and apply machine learning techniques to reveal that the \resting state" cannot be considered as a pure brain state and is in fact a mixture containing different levels of conscious awareness. This last result has deep implications for future attempts to develop a discovery science of brain function both in health and disease.
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 vorliegende Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Emission von Elektronen aus kleinen dissoziierenden Molekülen.
Die Frage, der hier nachgegangen werden soll: Wie läuft ein solcher Prozess, bei dem ein Molekül in seine atomaren Einzelteile zerbricht, tatsächlich ab? Während es Experimentalphysikern schon seit längerem möglich ist präzise Aussagen über den Zustand eines Systems vor und nach einer solchen „halben“ chemischen Reaktion zu machen, war es lange nicht möglich die Reaktion selbst zu be-obachten, da sie auf einer Zeitskala von einigen Femtosekunden (1 fs = 10-15 s) stattfindet. Eine Möglichkeit, solche Prozesse zu untersuchen, ist die Ionisation, also das Herauslösen eines Elektrons aus seinem gebunden Zustand im Molekül, und die anschließende Messung der kinetische Energie oder des Impulsvektors des Elektrons. Dadurch können Rückschlüsse auf die Bindungsenergie und die räumliche Verteilung der Elektronen im gebundenen Zustand gezogen werden. Wenn man in der Lage ist die Elektronen, die von einem dissoziierenden Molekül zu verschiedenen Zeitpunkten während des Dissoziationsprozesses emittiert werden, zu messen, so sollte es unter Umständen möglich sein, den Übergang von molekularen zu atomaren Orbitalen zu beobachten.
Zur Durchführung der Messungen wurde ein COLTRIMS-Multikoinzidenzimpulsspektrometer ver-wendet, mit welchem sowohl die kinetische Energie aller geladenen Reaktionsprodukte als auch deren vollständige Impulsvektoren koinzident gemessen werden können.
In einer Messung an Chlorwasserstoff wurde auf diese Weise die ultraschnelle Dissoziation angeregter neutraler Moleküle untersucht. Hierbei machte man sich den Umstand zunutze, dass die angeregten Zustände bei beliebigen internuklearen Abständen zerfallen und ein Auger-Elektron emittieren können.
Für den resonanten Auger-Zerfall der 2p-16σ-Zustände des Chlorwasserstoffmoleküls wurden unseres Wissens nach erstmals alle Komponenten der Impulsvektoren sowohl der Auger-Elektronen als auch der ionischen Reaktionsprodukte gemessen. Durch diese kinematisch vollständige Messung konnte der Prozess in bisher noch nie dagewesenem Detail untersucht werden. Zum ersten Mal konnte sowohl der angeregte Zustand nach der Absorption des Photons, als auch der elektronische Endzustand für jeden einzelnen Zerfall bestimmt werden. Aufgeschlüsselt nach diesen Zuständen konnten dann die Winkelverteilungen der Auger-Elektronen und die Aufteilung der Energie auf Elektron und Kernbewegung vermessen werden. Dies ist der vollständige Satz aller möglichen Beobachtungsgrößen, so dass die Daten über keine Größe mehr integriert wurden.
In einer Messung an H2O-Molekülen wurde ein Prozess untersucht, bei dem ein einfach geladenes angeregtes Molekül in zwei Fragmente dissoziiert und, wenn die Dissoziation bereits sehr weit fort-geschritten ist, ein weiteres Elektron emittiert. Hier konnte gezeigt werden, wie eine Anisotropie in der Elektronenwinkelverteilung eines dissoziierenden Moleküls mit Hilfe einer einfachen klassischen Simulation dazu verwendet werden kann, den Abstand zwischen einem Proton und einem angeregten Molekül, in welche das ursprüngliche Molekül dissoziiert, zu dem Zeitpunkt an dem das angeregte Molekül durch Autoionisation ein weiteres Elektron emittiert, zu bestimmen. Es wurde nachgewiesen, dass der Auger-Zerfall eines H2O+*-Ions, bei dem ein Sauerstoff 2s-Elektron aus dem Molekülverband entfernt wurde, erst bei sehr großen Abständen von mehreren 100 Ångström zwischen dem Proton und dem OH*-Molekül stattfindet.
Die dritte Messung an dem Ne2-Dimer beschäftigt sich mit der Frage, ob die in einem Molekül er-zeugten Vakanzen als lokalisiert oder delokalisiert zu betrachten sind. Wie bereits in vorhergegangenen Messungen dargelegt wurde, ist die Antwort auf die Frage für kovalente Moleküle eine Frage des Messprozesses. In Rahmen dieser Arbeit konnte nachgewiesen werden, dass dies auch für schwach gebundene Van-der Waals-Moleküle der Fall ist und deren Valenzelektronen ebenfalls unter bestimmten Umständen als delokalisiert angesehen werden müssen. Das ist insoweit überraschend, da die gängige Vorstellung eines solchen Moleküls die eines Systems aus einzelnen Atomen ist, welche nur durch kleine Ladungspolarisationen in den Elektronenschalen eine Bindung eingehen. Des Weiteren wurde gezeigt, dass sich der Prozess qualitativ mit einer einfachen Doppelspalt-Simulation erklären lässt, bei welcher ebene Wellen mit einem bestimmten Phasenversatz, der sich aus der Form der beteiligten Atomorbitale ergibt, von den beiden Kernen emittiert werden.
Die Dissoziation des Moleküls war selber nicht Gegenstand der Untersuchung, sondern wurde ausgenutzt um verschiedene elektronische Zustände, in welchen sich das Molekül nach der Ionisation befinden kann und von denen nur einer dissoziativ ist, zu unterscheiden.
The chiral phase transition of Quantum Chromo Dynamics (QCD) is investigated with the help of the linear-sigma model and a numerical transport simulation. The scope are non-equilibrium and critical effects of the different type of orders of the transition. Additionally, a mathematical and numerical method is developed which allows to simulate a particle-wave duality and non-continuous interactions, even for classical systems.
Heavy-ion collisions at ultra-relativistic energies allow access to the Quark-Gluon Plasma, the deconfined phase of the strong interaction, a state which is believed to have existed fractions of seconds after the big bang. Two-particle correlations at small relative momenta, and particularly their dependence on pair transverse mass, are distinctly sensitive to the reaction dynamics of the fireball created in heavy-ion collisions.
Being the heaviest system to extract a size of the particle emitting source, proton-lambda correlations extend the studied range in pair transverse mass and are therefore well suited to explore the dynamical behavior of the matter created in Pb-Pb collisions at the Large Hadron Collider. The centrality dependence of the extracted source radii affirms the expectations of a larger source for more central collisions. Source radii were attained over a span of more than 0.9 GeV/c2 in mean pair transverse mass with a source radius extracted for a mean transverse mass as high as 2.18 GeV/c2. The source radii decrease with increasing pair transverse mass, as expected in a hydrodynamical picture. The comparison with radii obtained from other particle species exhibits the clear breaking of an elsewhere proposed scaling behavior of source radii with mean pair transverse mass for all particle species.
Gamma-gamma correlations possibly allow to look past the barrier of kinetic freeze-out. Additionally, they bear the potential to solve the puzzling observation in heavy-ion collisions of an excess of photons with a large temperature-like inverse slope parameter on the one hand and an elliptic flow coefficient of photons comparable to the one of hadrons on the other hand. A striking signal in the two-photon correlation function is observed; however it seems likely to not be of quantum statistical origin. A path for further studies is laid out.
The subject of this thesis is the experimental investigation of the neutron-capture cross sections of the neutron-rich, short-lived boron isotopes 13B and 14B, as they are thought to influence the rapid neutron-capture process (r process) nucleosynthesis in a neutrino-driven wind scenario.
The 13;14B(n,g)14;15B reactions were studied in inverse kinematics via Coulomb dissociation at the LAND/R3B setup (Reactions with Relativistic Radioactive Beams). A radioactive beam of 14;15B was produced via in-flight fragmentation and directed onto a lead-target at about 500 AMeV. The neutron breakup of the projectile within the electromagnetic field of the target nucleus was investigated in a kinematically complete measurement. All outgoing reaction products were detected and analyzed in order to reconstruct the excitation energy.
The differential Coulomb dissociation cross sections as a function of the excitation energy were obtained and first experimental constraints on the photoabsorption and the neutron-capture cross sections were deduced. The results were compared to theoretical approximations of the cross sections in question. The Coulomb dissociation cross section of 15B into 14B(g.s.) + n was determined to be s(15B;14B(g:s:)+n) CD = 81(8stat)(10syst) mb ; while the Coulomb dissociation cross section of 14B into a neutron and 13B in its ground state was found to be s(14B;13B(g:s:)+n) CD = 281(25stat)(43syst) mb: Furthermore, new information on the nuclear structure of 14B were achieved, as the spectral shape of the differential Coulomb dissociation cross section indicates a halolike structure of the nucleus.
Additionally, the Coulomb dissociation of 11Be was investigated and compared to previous measurements in order to verify the present analysis. The corresponding Coulomb dissociation cross section of 11Be into 10Be(g.s.) + n was found to be 450(40stat)(54syst ) mb, which is in good agreement with the results of Palit et al.
Experiments for p-process nucleosynthesis with special focus on the most abundant p nucleus 92Mo
(2014)
This thesis describes experimental investigations and astrophysical network calculations relevant for the nucleosynthesis of the p nuclei. These 35 proton-rich isotopes cannot be produced by neutron-capture reactions which is the general production mechanism for elements heavier than iron in the r and s processes. Therefore, other mechanisms like photo-disintegration reactions on heavy seed nuclei (γ process) or proton-capture reactions are taken into account.
The modelling of these processes relies on a hugh amount of reactions which mostly occur for unstable isotopes. This demands, in combination with the contribution of excited states to the stellar rate, the prediction of the rates by a suited theoretical approach: the Hauser-Feshbach statistical model. To improve the reliability of the predictions, systematic experimental investigations are performed within this work for the nuclear input to the calculations. The study of charged-particle optical model potentials using the activation approach for the investigation of (α,n) and (p,n) reactions is described as well as the investigation of (γ,n) reactions in a broad mass range of 140 ≤ A ≤ 210.
However, there are also key reactions which are of special interest for the nucleosynthesis of individual p nuclei. An impressive example is the puzzle about the production of the most abundant p nucleus 92Mo. Within this work, the results of an experiment using high-resolution in-beam γ-spectroscopy for the study of the 90Zr(p,γ) reaction are summarized. In addition, the efforts to investigate the 91Nb(p,γ) reaction in standard kinematics by the production of target of the unstable isotope 91Nb to be used with the high-intensity proton-beam provided by the accelerator of FRANZ, Frankfurt, are discussed.
Finally, the influence of experimental results in astrophysical network calculations is discussed using post-processing nucleosynthesis methods for the γ process in type II supernovae.
Im Rahmen des FRANZ-Projektes wurde nach einer Ionenquelle verlangt welche in der Lage ist einen intensiven hochbrillanten Protonenstrahl von 200 mA bei 120 keV im Dauerstrichbetrieb zur Verfügung zu stellen, bei gleichzeitig niedriger Strahlemittanz. Der recht hohe Protonenstrom von 200 mA stellt dabei eine Herausforderung an den Experimentator dar.
Die grundsätzliche Problematik bei der Entwicklung einer solchen Ionenquelle besteht im Wesentlichen darin, ein geeignetes Extraktionssystem zu designen, welches in der Lage ist den geforderten hohen Protonenstrom zu extrahieren und transportieren. In diesem Zusammenhang wurden Abschätzungen bezüglich des notwendigen Emissionsradius, der elektrischen Feldstärke im Extraktionsspalt sowie des Protonenanteils für den verlangten Protonenstrom von 200 mA durchgeführt. Für die praktische Umsetzung wurden Lösungsstrategien erarbeitet. Ziel war es die elektrische Feldstärke im Gap so hoch wie möglich und den Radius der Emissionsöffnung so klein wie möglich zu wählen, bei gleichzeitig möglichst hohem Protonenanteil. Basierend auf diesen Erkenntnissen wurde ein Prototyp der Bogenentladungs-Volumenionenquelle entwickelt und erfolgreich in Betrieb genommen.
Zur Steigerung des Protonenanteils im Wasserstoffplasma wurden diverse Parameter der Ionenquelle optimiert wie bspw. Bogenleistung, Gasdruck sowie insbesondere die Feldverteilung und die magnetische Flussdichte des magnetischen Filters. Diese Ergebnisse wurden mit dem verbesserten theoretischen Modell zur Erzeugung von atomaren Wasserstoffionenstrahlen verglichen. Um die elektrische Feldstärke im Extraktionsspalt zu steigern wurden die Elektroden aus einem thermisch belastbaren Material hergestellt und einer speziellen Oberflächenbehandlung unterzogen. Des Weiteren wurden theoretische und experimentelle Untersuchungen bezüglich der Emissionsstromdichte und der Strahlqualität durchgeführt. Weiterhin wurde die Emittanz des Ionenstrahls berechnet sowie mit einer eigens am Institut für Angewandte Physik entwickelten Pepperpot-Emittanzmessanlage experimentell bestimmt. Die vorliegende Dissertation präsentiert die Ergebnisse der Entwicklung dieser hocheffizienten Bogenentladungs-Volumenionenquelle.
Oscillations play a critical role in cognitive phenomena and have been observed in many brain regions. Experimental evidence indicates that classes of neurons exhibit properties that could promote oscillations, such as subthreshold resonance and electrical gap junctions. Typically, these two properties are studied separately but it is not clear which is the dominant determinant of global network rhythms. Our aim is to provide an analytical understanding of how these two effects destabilize the fluctuation-driven state, in which neurons fire irregularly, and lead to an emergence of global synchronous oscillations. Here we show how the oscillation frequency is shaped by single neuron resonance, electrical and chemical synapses.The presence of both gap junctions and subthreshold resonance are necessary for the emergence of oscillations. Our results are in agreement with several experimental observations such as network responses to oscillatory inputs and offer a much-needed conceptual link connecting a collection of disparate effects observed in networks.
A measurement of the transverse momentum spectra of jets in Pb-Pb collisions at sNN−−−√=2.76 TeV is reported. Jets are reconstructed from charged particles using the anti-kT jet algorithm with jet resolution parameters R of 0.2 and 0.3 in pseudo-rapidity |η|<0.5. The transverse momentum pT of charged particles is measured down to 0.15 GeV/c which gives access to the low pT fragments of the jet. Jets found in heavy-ion collisions are corrected event-by-event for average background density and on an inclusive basis (via unfolding) for residual background fluctuations and detector effects. A strong suppression of jet production in central events with respect to peripheral events is observed. The suppression is found to be similar to the suppression of charged hadrons, which suggests that substantial energy is radiated at angles larger than the jet resolution parameter R=0.3 considered in the analysis. The fragmentation bias introduced by selecting jets with a high pT leading particle, which rejects jets with a soft fragmentation pattern, has a similar effect on the jet yield for central and peripheral events. The ratio of jet spectra with R=0.2 and R=0.3 is found to be similar in Pb-Pb and simulated PYTHIA pp events, indicating no strong broadening of the radial jet structure in the reconstructed jets with R<0.3.
The Compressed Baryonic Matter (CBM) experiment [1] is a fixed target heavy-ion experiment that will operate at the international Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) [2] now under construction in Darmstadt, Germany. The experiment intends to study rare probes, which are emitted from heavy ion collisions with a beam energy of 4 to 45 AGeV. A focus is laid to the short lived open charm particles and to particles decaying into di-lepton pairs. Handling the up to 107 Au+Au collisions/s required for generating those probes with sufficient statistics, as much as reaching the required sensitivity for observing them, forms a major challenge for the silicon detectors of the experiment. We present the concept and the development status of two central detectors of CBM, the CMOS pixel based micro vertex detector (MVD) and the micro-strip detector based silicon tracking system (STS).
22nd International Workshop on Vertex Detectors, 15-20 September 2013 Lake Starnberg, Germany
According to the standard model of particle physics, the most fundamental building blocks of the known matter are quarks and leptons, while the interactions between these fundamental objects is mediated through bosons. On one hand the leptons can exist in nature as individual particles, while on the other hand quarks appear always as bound states called hadrons. The knowledge that hadrons are built from more fundamental particles dates back to the second half of the 20th century when the work by Gell-Mann and Zweig led to the development of the quark model. The experimental proof that the hadrons are bound objects composed of more elementary particles was done through the study of deep inelastic scattering of electrons off protons. These experiments were done in a similar fashion to the studies of the atomic model led by Rutherford at the beginning of the 20th century. Further experimental analysis led to the conclusion that a large fraction of the proton momentum is not carried alone by the quarks, but by the bosons that mediate the strong interaction called gluons. The cleanest experimental signature for the existence of the gluons came from electron-positron annihilation experiments, where a quark-antiquark pair is created and one of the quarks radiates a hard gluon. Due to confinement neither the quarks nor the gluon can be observed directly, but are measured experimentally as three collimated showers of particles named jets. Since the ground breaking experiments performed at DESY, jets have provided a tool to study the properties of quarks and gluons...
Design and optimization of the lattice of the superconducting synchrotron SIS300 for slow extraction
(2011)
The superconducting synchrotron SIS300 is planned to be built at the new Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR), at GSI-Darmstadt [1]. SIS300 will be a versatile machine, which by means of a low-energy stretcher-mode or a high-energy ramped-mode will provide slowly extracted heavy ion beams towards the experimental areas. To reach the required maximum field of 4.5 T, cos(θ) magnets are necessary. Thus, SIS300 will become the first superconducting synchrotron worldwide with cos(θ) magnets providing resonant slow extraction.
Since SIS300 will be installed in the same tunnel as the SIS100 synchrotron, the dipole layout of SIS300 cannot be freely chosen. Thus, a standard lattice cannot be applied. A redesign of the SIS300 lattice accepting compromises concerning the positions and phase advances between the optical elements has been proposed. Using the analytical model of the slow extraction, firstly proposed by Kobayashi, and the analytical description of the resonance driving modes, a multiobjective optimization algorithm has been developed for the optimization of the lattice under the given boundary conditions. The final goal of the lattice optimization is a higher efficiency of the slow extraction. The results are evaluated by means of tracking simulations performed with the code Elegant.
The field quality in superconducting cos(θ) magnets is determined by the positions of the superconducting cable and the static and time-dependent effects of the current in the cable. Furthermore, the fast ramp rates of 1 T/s in the dipoles, which are fifty times faster than in any other superconducting cos(θ) magnet, together with the fact that the aperture is smaller than in conventional accelerator magnets, makes it extremely difficult to obtain a high-quality magnetic field. The unavoidable field errors affect the beam dynamics and worsen the slow extraction efficiency. Therefore, the field errors in the SIS300 dipoles have been estimated, and their effects have been taken into account in the optimization algorithm. As a result a compensation scheme has been proposed, in which time-dependent gradients in the sextupoles counteract the decay of the sextupole field errors in the dipole magnets during the slow extraction. For the limits where the compensation was no longer possible, tolerances to the magnet field errors have been determined.
Atomistic molecular dynamics approach for channeling of charged particles in oriented crystals
(2015)
Der Gitterführungseffekt ist der Prozess der Ausbreitung von geladenen Teilchen entlang der Ebenen oder Achsen von kristallinen Materialien. Seit den 1960er Jahren ist dieser Effekt weitgehend theoretisch und experimentell untersucht worden. Dieser Effekt wurde für die Manipulation von Hochenergiestrahlen, die Hochpräzisionsstruktur- und -fehleranalyse von kristallinen Medien und die Herstellung von hochenergetischer Strahlung angewendet. Zur Abstimmung der Parameter der Gitterführung und Gitterführungsstrahlung wurde dieser Prozess für den Fall von künstlich nanostrukturierten Materialien, wie gebogenen Kristallen, Nanoröhren und Fullerit, angenommen. In den letzten Jahren wurde das Konzept des kristallinen Undulators formuliert und getestet, das besondere Eigenschaften der Strahlung aufgrund der Gitterführung von Projektilen in regelmäßig gebogenen Kristallen vorhersagt.
In dieser Arbeit werden die Prozesse der Gitterführung von Sub- und Multi-GeV-Elektronen und -Positronen durch den atomistischen Molekulardynamik-Ansatz untersucht. Die Ergebnisse dieser Studien wurden in einer Reihe von Artikeln während meiner Promotion in Frankfurt vorgestellt. Dieser Ansatz ermöglicht die Simulation komplexer Fälle von Gitterführung in geraden, gebogenen und periodisch gebogenen Kristallen aus reinen kristallinen Materialien und von gemischten Materialien wie Si-Ge-Kristallen, in mehrschichtigen und nanostrukturierten kristallinen Systemen. Die Arbeit beschreibt die Methode der Simulationen, stellt Ergebnisse von Simulationen für verschiedene Fälle vor und vergleicht die Ergebnisse von Simulationen mit aktuellen experimentellen Daten. Die Ergebnisse werden mit Schätzungen der dechanneling-Länge verglichen, dem Anteil der gittergeführten Projektile, der Winkelverteilung der ausgehenden Projektile und des Strahlungsspektrums.
The upcoming CBM Experiment at FAIR aims at exploring the region of highest net baryonic densities reproducible in energetic heavy ion collisions. Due to the very high beam intensities expected at FAIR, unprecedented data regarding rare observables such as charm quarks and hyperons will be accessible. Open charm mesons are particularly interesting, since they support the reconstruction of the total charm cross-section in order to search for exotic phenomena, e.g. a phase transition towards the quark-gluon plasma which is predicted by several theoretical models. Open charm studies will be performed via secondary vertex reconstruction with a suitable Micro-Vertex Detector (MVD). The CBM-MVD is currently in the development and prototyping phase with primary design goals concentrating on spatial resolution, radiation hardness, material budget, and readout performance. CMOS Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (MAPS) provide an excellent spatial resolution for the MVD in the order of few um in combination with a low material budget (50 um thickness) and high radiation hardness. The active volume of the devices is formed from the epitaxial layer of standard CMOS wafers. This allows for integration of pixels together with analogue and digital data processing circuits on one single chip. This option was explored with the MIMOSA-26 prototype, which integrates functionalities like pedestal correction, correlated double sampling, discrimination and data sparsification based on zero suppression combined with a small and dense pixel matrix. The pixel array composed of 576 lines of 1152 pixels is read out in a column-parallel rolling shutter mode. One discriminator per column and the digital data processing circuits are located on the same chip in a 3 mm wide area beneath the pixel matrix allowing for binary hit encoding. This area also contains the circuits for pedestal correction and the configuration memory, which is programmed via JTAG. The preprocessed digital data is read out via two 80 Mbit/s LVDS links per sensor, which stream their data continuously based on a low-level protocol.
Within the scope of this thesis, a readout concept of the CBM-MVD is proposed and studied based on the current MIMOSA sensor generation. The backbone of the system is formed by the Readout Controller boards (ROCs) featuring FPGA microchips and optical links. Several ROC prototypes are considered using the synergy with the HADES Experiment. Finally, the TRB3 board is selected as a possible candidate for the initial FAIR experiments. Furthermore, a highly scalable, hardware independent FPGA firmware is implemented in order to steer and read out multiple MIMOSA-26 sensors. The reconfigurable firmware is also designed with the support for future MIMOSA sensor generations. The free-streaming sensor data is deserialized and error-checked, prior to its transmission over a suitable network interface. In order to demonstrate the validity of the concept, a readout network similar to the HADES Data Acquisition (DAQ) system is developed. The ROC is tested on the HADES TRB2 boards and data is acquired using suitable MAPS add-on boards and the TrbNet protocol.
In the context of the CBM-MVD prototype project, a readout network with 12 MIMOSA-26 sensors has been prepared for an in-beam test at the CERN SPS facility. A comprehensive control system is designed comprising customized software tools. The subsequent in-beam test is used to validate the design choices. As a result, the system could be operated synchronously and dead-time free for several days. The readout network behavior in a realistic operating environment has been carefully studied with the outcome the the TrbNet based approach handles the MVD prototype setup without any difficulties. A procedure to keep the sensors synchronous even in case of a data overflow has been pioneered as well. After the beam test, improvements and conceptual changes to the readout systems are being addressed which allow an integration into the global CBM DAQ system.
The implementation of pump-probe experiments with ultrashort laser pulses enables the study of dynamical processes in atoms or molecules, which may provide a deeper inside in their physical origin. The application of this method to systems as nitrous oxide, which is not only a simple example for polyatomic molecules but which also plays a crucial role in the greenhouse effect, promises interesting and beneficial findings. This thesis presents, on the one hand, the technical extension of an existing experimental setup for high-harmonic generation (HHG) and ultra-fast laser physics by an extreme ultraviolet (XUV) spectrometer for the in-situ observation of the harmonic spectrum during ongoing measurements. The present setup enables the production of short laser pulse trains in the XUV spectral range with durations of a few hundred attoseconds (1 as = 10^−18 s) via HHG and supports to perform XUV-IR pump-probe experiments using the infrared (IR) driving field with durations of a few femtoseconds. Moreover, a reaction microscope is implemented, which enables the coincident detection of several charged particles emerging from an ionization or dissociation process and to reconstruct their full 3-D-momentum vectors. With this technique it is possible to perform time-resolved momentum spectroscopy of few-particle quantum systems. Here, the design and the calibration of the XUV spectrometer is presented as well as a first application to the analysis of experimental data by providing information on the produced photon energies. On the other hand, the results of an XUV-pump IR-probe measurement on nitrous oxide (N2O) are discussed. With the broad harmonic spectrum (∼ 17 − 45 eV) it is possible to address several states of the singly and doubly ionized cation. One reaction channel is the single ionization into a stable state of N2O+. Here, the coincidently measured photoelectron energies allow the observation of sidebands, which served to estimate the pulse durations of the involved XUV pulse trains as well as of the fundamental IR pulses. Additionally, single ionization of nitrous oxide can lead to a dissociation into a charged and a neutral fragment. The four respective dissociation channels are compared by presenting their branching ratios, kinetic energy release (KER) distributions and their dependencies on the time delay between pump and probe pulse. In the production of the dication, there are two competitive processes: direct double ionization considering photon energies above the double-ionization threshold, and autoionization of singly ionized and excited molecules in the case of photon energies near the double-ionization threshold. In both cases, the ionization leads to a Coulomb explosion into two charged fragments, where the N − N bond or the N − O bond may dissociate. The influence of the IR-probe field on the ionization yield and the KER was investigated for both dissociation channels and compared. In addition, the corresponding photoelectron energy spectra are presented, which show indications for autoionizing states being involved, and their dependence on the delay and the KER of the respective ions is analyzed.
Within the nucleosynthetic processes of the slow neutron-capture reaction network (called the s process) the so called branching points, unstable isotopes where different nuclear reactions are competing, are important to understand . For modeling and calculating the nucleosynthesis and compare the resulting abundances to the observed ones, it is indispensable to know the branching ratios as well as the corresponding cross sections.
A great challenge in measuring those rates in experiments may be the radioactivity of the isotopes involved, which can make it nearly impossible to manufacture the needed targets. In addition, in stellar environments the excited states of isotopes can be in equilibrium with the ground state, affecting the half-lives and the branching ratios significantly. The isotope 152Eu is such a branching point, with neutron captures and β-decays competing. Those challenges were approached in the s405 experiment performed at the GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung GmbH: the challenge the challenge of the radioactivity can be approached by experiments carried out in inverse kinematics with radioactive beams, solving the problem of unstable targets. Also a reversed reaction was used to access the excited states of the studied isotope. The performed 152Sm(p,n)152Eu is a pioneering attempt to use those methods on heavy ions. The (p,n) reaction was used as a substitute for electron capture, the focus lies on reactions with low-momentum transfers, resulting in the emission of low-energy neutrons. The new developed low-energy detector array LENA was put to test for the fist time in the s405 experiment.
Die vorliegende Arbeit befasst sich mit der Untersuchung einzelner chiraler Moleküle durch Koinzidenzmessungen. Ein Molekül wird chiral genannt, wenn es in zwei Varianten, sogenannten Enantiomeren auftritt, deren Strukturmodelle Spiegelbilder voneinander sind.
Da viele biologisch relevante Moleküle chiral sind, sind Methoden und Erkenntnisse dieses Gebiets von großer Bedeutung für Biochemie und Pharmazie. Bemerkenswert ist, dass in der Natur meist nur eines der beiden möglichen Enantiomere auftritt. Ob diese Wahl zufällig war, ob sie aufgrund der Anfangsbedingungen bei Entstehung des Lebens erfolgte, oder ob sie eine fundamentale Ursache hat, ist bisher ungeklärt. Seit der Entdeckung chiraler Molekülstrukturen in der zweiten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts ist eine Vielzahl von Methoden entwickelt worden, um die beiden Enantiomere eines Moleküls zu unterscheiden und ihre Eigenschaften zu untersuchen. Aussagen über die mikroskopische Struktur (Absolutkonfiguration) können jedoch meist nur mithilfe theoretischer Modelle getroffen werden.
Der innovative Schritt der vorliegenden Arbeit besteht darin, eine in der Atomphysik entwickelte Technik zur Untersuchung einzelner mikroskopischer Systeme erstmals auf chirale Moleküle anzuwenden: Mit der sogenannten Cold Target Recoil Ion Momentum Spectroscopy (COLTRIMS) ist es möglich, einzelne Moleküle in der Gasphase mehrfach zu ionisieren und die entstandenen Fragmente (Ionen und Elektronen) zu untersuchen. Die gleichzeitige Detektion dieser Fragmente wird als Koinzidenzmessung bezeichnet.
Zunächst wurde das prototypische chirale Molekül CHBrClF mit einem Femtosekunden-Laserpuls mehrfach ionisiert, sodass alle fünf Atome als einfach geladene Ionen in einer sogenannten Coulomb-Explosion „auseinander fliegen“. Durch Messung der Impulsvektoren dieser Ionen konnte die mikroskopische Konfiguration einzelner Moleküle mit sehr hoher Zuverlässigkeit bestimmt werden. Somit eignet sich die Koinzidenzmethode auch dazu, die Anteile der rechts- bzw. linkshändigen Enantiomere in einer Probe zu bestimmen. Die Messungen an der verwendeten, racemischen Probe zeigen bei der Ionisation mit linear polarisiertem Licht im Rahmen der statistischen Unsicherheit wie erwartet eine Gleichverteilung der beiden Enantiomere.
In einem nachfolgenden Experiment konnte gezeigt werden, dass sich die Coulomb-Explosion auch mit einzelnen hochenergetischen Photonen aus einer Synchrotronstrahlungsquelle realisieren lässt. Für beide Ionisationsmechanismen – am Laser und am Synchrotron - wurden mehrere Fragmentationskanäle untersucht. Im Hinblick auf die Erweiterung der Methode hin zu komplexeren, biologisch relevanten Molekülen ist es entscheidend zu wissen, inwieweit sich die Händigkeit bestimmen lässt, wenn nicht alle Atome des Moleküls als atomare Ionen detektiert werden. Hierbei stellte sich heraus, dass auch molekulare Ionen zur Bestimmung der Absolutkonfiguration herangezogen werden können. Eine signifikante Steigerung der Effizienz konnte für den Fall demonstriert werden, dass nicht alle Fragmente aus der Coulomb-Explosion des Moleküls detektiert wurden – hier lassen sich allerdings nur noch statistische Aussagen über die Absolutkonfiguration und die Häufigkeit der beiden Enantiomere treffen.
Um die Grenzen der Methode in Bezug auf die Massenauflösung zu testen, wurden isotopenchirale Moleküle, d.h. Moleküle, die nur aufgrund zwei verschiedener Isotope chiral sind, untersucht. Auch hier ist eine Trennung der Enantiomere möglich, wenn auch mit gewissen Einschränkungen.
Ein wichtiges Merkmal chiraler Moleküle ist das unterschiedliche Verhalten der Enantiomere bei Wechselwirkung mit zirkular polarisierter Strahlung. Diese Asymmetrie wird Zirkulardichroismus genannt. Die koinzidente Untersuchung von Ionen und Elektronen aus der Fragmentation eines Moleküls eröffnet neue Möglichkeiten für die Untersuchung des Dichroismus. So können die Impulsvektoren der Ionen mit bekannten Asymmetrien in der Elektronenverteilung (Photoelektron-Zirkulardichroismus) verknüpft werden, was zu einem besseren Verständnis der Wechselwirkung elektromagnetischer Strahlung mit chiralen Molekülen führen kann.
In dieser Arbeit wurde nach Asymmetrien in der Winkelverteilung sowohl der Ionen als auch der Elektronen nach der Ionisation von CHBrClF und Propylenoxid (C3H6O) mit zirkular polarisierter Synchrotronstrahlung gesucht. In den durchgeführten Messungen konnte kein zweifelsfreier Nachweis für einen Dichroismus bei den verwendeten experimentellen Bedingungen erbracht werden. Technische und prinzipielle Limitierungen der Methode wurden diskutiert und Verbesserungsvorschläge für zukünftige Messungen genannt.
Mit der erfolgreichen Bestimmung der Absolutkonfiguration und der prinzipiellen Möglichkeit, Asymmetrien in zuvor nicht zugänglichen Messgrößen zu untersuchen, legt diese Arbeit den Grundstein für die Anwendung der Koinzidenzspektroskopie auf Fragestellungen der Stereochemie.
Die Dissertation ist in den Bereichen der semiklassischen Quantengravitation und der pseudokomplexen Allgemeinen Relativitätstheorie (pk-ART) anzusiedeln. Dabei wird unter semiklassischer Quantengravitation die Untersuchung quantenmechanischer Phänomene in einem durch eine klassische Gravitationstheorie gegebenen gravitativen Hintergrundfeld verstanden und bei der pk-ART handelt es sich um eine Alternative zu der aktuell anerkannten klassischen Gravitationstheorie, der Allgemeinen Relativitätstheorie (ART), die die reellen Raumzeitkoordinaten der ART pseudokomplex erweitert. Dies führt zusammen mit einer Veränderung des Variationsprinzips in führender Ordnung auf eine Korrektur der Einstein- Gleichung der ART mit einem zusätzlichen Quellterm (Energie-Impuls-Tensor), dessen exakte Form jedoch bisher nicht bekannt ist.
Die Beschreibung der Gravitation als Hintergrundfeld ergibt sich zwangsläufig daraus, dass auf Basis der ART bisher keine quantisierte Beschreibung für sie gefunden werden konnte. Jedoch wird erhofft, dass die Untersuchung semiklassischer Phänomene Hinweise auf die korrekte Theorie der Quantengravitation gibt. Zudem motiviert der Mangel einer quantisierten Gravitationstheorie die Verwendung alternativer Theorien, da sich dadurch die Frage stellt, ob die ART die korrekte Beschreibung klassischer Felder ist.
Das Ziel der vorliegenden Dissertation war die grundlegenden Unterschiede zwischen der ART und der pk-ART für gebundene sphärisch symmetrische Zustände der Klein-Gordon- und der Dirac-Gleichung zu identifizieren und ein qualitatives Modell der Vakuumfluktuationen in sphärisch symmetrischen Materieverteilungen zu bestimmen, wobei der Zusammenhang der pk-ART mit den Vakuumfluktuationen in der Annahme besteht, dass ein Zusammenhang zwischen ihnen und dem zusätzlichen Quellterm der pk-ART existiert. Dafür wurden die gebundenen Zustände der Klein-Gordon- und der Dirac-Gleichung für drei verschiedene Metrikmodelle (zwei ART-Modelle und ein pk-ART-Modell) mit konstanter Dichte systematisch numerisch berechnet, einige repräsentative Grafiken erstellt, anhand derer die grundlegenden Unterschiede der Ergebnisse der ART-Modelle und des pk-ART-Modells erörtert wurden, und die ART Ergebnisse der Dirac-Gleichung soweit wie möglich mit Ergebnissen der Literatur verglichen. Insbesondere wurde dabei festgestellt, dass die Energieeigenwerte in der pk-ART im Gegensatz zu denen in der ART in Abhängigkeit der Ausdehnung des Zentralobjekts ein Minimum aufweisen. Zudem wurden die Energieeigenwerte der Klein-Gordon-Gleichung teilweise sowohl über das Eigenwertproblem einer Matrix als auch über ein Anfangswertproblem berechnet und es wurde festgestellt, dass die Beschreibung als Eigenwertproblem deutlich uneffektiver ist, wenn dafür die Basis des dreidimensionalen harmonischen Oszillators genutzt wird. Für die Entwicklung des qualitativen Vakuumfluktuationsmodells wurden zwei Näherungen für den Erwartungswert des Energie-Impuls-Tensors in führender Ordnung für die Schwarzschildmetrik (ART) verglichen und die Verwendung eines qualitativen Modells durch die dabei auftretende Diskrepanz gerechtfertigt. Danach wurden die Vakuumfluktuationen für Metriken konstanter Materiedichte mit Hilfe einer der Näherungen in führender Ordnung berechnet und ein Modell gesucht, das den gleichen qualitativen Verlauf aufweist. Im Anschluss wurde dieses Modell noch für einfache Metriken mit variabler Materiedichte verifiziert.
Die Dissertation leistet mit der Analyse der gebundenen Zustände einen Beitrag in der Identifikation der Unterschiede zwischen der pk-ART und der ART und führt somit auf weitere mögliche Messgrößen, die der Unterscheidung der beiden Theorien dienen könnten. Weiterhin ermöglicht das abgeleitete Modell eine Verfeinerung der schon publizierten Ergebnisse über Neutronensterne und die für die Erstellung nötigen Vorarbeiten leisten einen Beitrag zur Identifikation des
pk-ART Quellterms.
Ziel dieser Arbeit war, mittels einer (n,γ)-Aktivierung, 129Te zu erzeugen und eine Teilchenzahlbestimmung durchzuführen. Aktivierung der Probe am Forschungsreaktor TRIGA und Spektrenaufnahme mittels eines HPGe-Detektors erfolgten im Mai 2014 am Institut für Kernchemie der Johannes Gutenberg Universität in Mainz.
Die Teilchenzahl des Tochternuklids 129I kann anhand der Teilchenzahlen des Isomers und des Grundzustandes von 129Te berechnet werden. In den Aktivierungen #2 bis #6 wurden (14.27 ± 0.53)x10exp12 Iodnuklide erzeugt. Angegeben ist die maximal mögliche Anzahl von Iodteilchen bei unendlich langer Wartezeit und vollständigem Zerfall aller Tellurnuklide.
Beobachtet werden konnte die Abnahme der Grundzustandsaktivität bis zum Erreichen des Gleichgewichts aus Nachbevölkerung durch das Isomer und Zerfall. Die Grundzustandslinien der Energien von 459.60 keV, 487 keV, 1083 KeV und 1111 keV konnten zu dieser Untersuchung herangezogen werden. Diese 4 Linien erfüllen die erforderten Konsistenzkriterien bezüglich der Systematik und können daher zur Teilchenzahlbestimmung des Grundzustandes verwendet werden (Seite 31).
Der Einfluss der Eigenabsorption ist noch zu untersuchen, da die genaue Position der Probe im Polyethylenbehältnis nicht bestimmt werden konnte. Weiterhin ist die Datenanalyse der ersten Aktivierung aufgrund des Detektorwechsels noch nicht erfolgt. Der Austausch war wegen technischer Probleme notwendig. Ziel weiterführender Untersuchungen ist, eine erneute Halbwertszeitbestimmung des radioaktiven 129I vorzunehmen. Sie ist von Interesse, angesichts des Widerspruchs zweier Veröffentlichungen. Die Halbwertszeit des 129I kann Aufschluss über stellare Bedingungen des s-Prozesses geben.
This thesis presents experimental studies of proton capture and fragmentation reactions with heavy-ion storage rings. In one experiment, the 96Ru(p, γ)97Rh cross sections near the Gamow window have been measured at the ESR of GSI. In the other experiment, the measurement of the fragmentation yields has been carried out at the CSRe of IMP.
It is essential to determine the cross sections of (γ, p) or (p, γ) reactions for p-process network calculations. However, only very few of the required cross sections have been measured and thus most of them rely solely on Hauser-Feshbach model predictions. The predictions of the model have always very large uncertainties because of the not well-known input parameters. These parameters can be constrained by experiments. Compared to the traditional activation technique, a novel method using a storage ring has been developed to measure the cross sections of (p, γ) reactions in inverse kinematics.
This proton capture experiment has been performed at the ESR, where the circulating 96Ru44+ ions interacted with a hydrogen gas target at 9, 10 and 11 MeV/u. The nuclear reaction products of (p, p), (p, α), (p, n) and (p, γ) reactions were registered by position sensitive detectors. A Geant4 simulation code has been developed to distinguish the (p, γ) reaction products unambiguously from the background reactions. In this work, a relative normalization method has been utilized to accurately determine the cross sections of the (p, γ) reaction. The 96Ru(p, γ)97Rh cross section in the Gamow window of the p process is sensitive to two parameters, i.e., the γ-ray strength function and the optical model potential, while it is mainly sensitive to the γ-ray strength function in the energy region of our experiment. Therefore, our experimental (p, γ) cross sections near 10 MeV/u have been used to directly constrain the γ-ray strength function used in the model. Furthermore, the proton potential has also been constrained by combining our results with additional experimental data for this reaction in the lower energy region. The constrained model has been used to calculate the reaction rate over a wide temperature range, which is an extremely important input for astrophysical calculations.
The yields of fragments produced by 78Kr fragmentation reactions have been measured at the CSRe for the Tz = −1/2 and Tz = 1/2 nuclei along or close to the paths of αp- and rp-processes. The measured yields present a significant odd-even staggering effect for Tz = −1/2 nuclides but they are small for Tz = 1/2 nuclides.
The magnitude of this effect for four consecutive yields has been quantified using a third-order difference formula. It is found that the largest odd-even staggering is reached near the closed shells Z = 20 and Z = 28. Our experimental results could also compared with the data from other experiments with different projectile-target combinations. All these experimental data strongly support the closed shells Z = 20 and Z = 28 for the Tz = −1/2 nuclei.
This work derived the value of α-induced production cross sections of 77Kr and 77Br at α-energies of 12 MeV and 14 MeV, the thick target yields of 77Kr and 77Br at α-energies of 11.19 MeV, 13 MeV and 15.1 MeV and the thick target yield of 80Br as well as 80mBr at an α-energy of 15.1 MeV using the activation technique...
