    Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay, the Inverted Hierarchy and Precision Determination of theta(12)

    Get PDF
    Ruling out the inverted neutrino hierarchy with neutrinoless double beta decay experiments is possible if a limit on the effective mass below the minimal theoretically possible value is reached. We stress that this lower limit depends strongly on the value of the solar neutrino mixing angle: it introduces an uncertainty of a factor of 2 within its current 3 sigma range. If an experiment is not background-free, a factor of two in effective mass corresponds to a combined factor of 16 improvement for the experimental parameters running time, detector mass, background level and energy resolution. Therefore, a more precise determination of theta(12) is crucial for the interpretation of experimental results and the evaluation of the potential and requirements for future experiments. We give the required half-lifes to exclude (and touch) the inverted hierarchy regime for all double beta decay isotopes with a Q-value above 2 MeV. The nuclear matrix elements from 6 different groups and, if available, their errors are used and compared. We carefully put the calculations on equal footing in what regards various convention issues. We also use our compilation of matrix elements to give the reachable values of the effective mass for a given half-life value.Comment: 26 pages, 6 figures. v2: error corrected (misprint in paper we took a value from), slightly modifying the result

    We report on the characterization of two inverted coaxial Ge detectors in the context of being employed in future 76^{76}Ge neutrinoless double beta (0νββ0\nu\beta\beta) decay experiments. It is an advantage that such detectors can be produced with bigger Ge mass as compared to the planar Broad Energy Ge detectors (BEGe) that are currently used in the GERDA 0νββ0\nu\beta\beta decay experiment. This will result in lower background for the search of 0νββ0\nu\beta\beta decay due to a reduction of cables, electronics and holders. The measured resolution near the 76^{76}Ge Q-value at 2039 keV is 2.5 keV and their pulse-shape characteristics are similar to BEGe-detectors. It is concluded that this type of Ge-detector is suitable for usage in 76^{76}Ge 0νββ0\nu\beta\beta decay experiments

    A search for the radiative neutrinoless double electron capture of 58^{58}Ni

    Full text link
    A search for the radiative neutrinoless double electron capture with single \gray\ emission has been performed in 58^{58}Ni. Gamma radiation from a 7286 g nickel sample in natural isotope composition was measured for 58.3 d with an ultra low background HPGe detector in the Felsenkeller underground laboratory in Dresden, Germany. A new lower half-life limit of 2.1×10212.1 \times 10^{21} yr (90% CL) was obtained for this decay mode. This half-life limit is two orders of magnitude higher than the existing limit for 58^{58}Ni and among the best half-life limits for neutrinoless double electron capture decays

    Acceleration Profiles and Processing Methods for Parabolic Flight

    Full text link
    Parabolic flights provide cost-effective, time-limited access to "weightless" or reduced gravity conditions experienced in space or on planetary surfaces, e.g. the Moon or Mars. These flights facilitate fundamental research - from materials science to space biology - and testing/validation activities that support and complement infrequent and costly access to space. While parabolic flights have been conducted for decades, reference acceleration profiles and processing methods are not widely available - yet are critical for assessing the results of these activities. Here we present a method for collecting, analyzing, and classifying the altered gravity environments experienced during a parabolic flight. We validated this method using a commercially available accelerometer during a Boeing 727-200F flight with 2020 parabolas. All data and analysis code are freely available. Our solution can be easily integrated with a variety of experimental designs, does not depend upon accelerometer orientation, and allows for unsupervised and repeatable classification of all phases of flight, providing a consistent and open-source approach to quantifying gravito-intertial accelerations (GIA), or gg levels. As academic, governmental, and commercial use of space increases, data availability and validated processing methods will enable better planning, execution, and analysis of parabolic flight experiments, and thus, facilitate future space activities.Comment: Correspondence to C.E.

    A new approach to the inverse problem for current mapping in thin-film superconductors

    Full text link
    A novel mathematical approach has been developed to complete the inversion of the Biot-Savart law in one- and two-dimensional cases from measurements of the perpendicular component of the magnetic field using the well-developed Magneto-Optical Imaging technique. Our approach, especially in the 2D case, is provided in great detail to allow a straightforward implementation as opposed to those found in the literature. Our new approach also refines our previous results for the 1D case [Johansen et al., Phys. Rev. B 54, 16264 (1996)], and streamlines the method developed by Jooss et al. [Physica C 299, 215 (1998)] deemed as the most accurate if compared to that of Roth et al. [J. Appl. Phys. 65, 361 (1989)]. We also verify and streamline the iterative technique, which was developed following Laviano et al. [Supercond. Sci. Technol. 16, 71 (2002)] to account for in-plane magnetic fields caused by the bending of the applied magnetic field due to the demagnetising effect. After testing on magneto-optical images of a high quality YBa2Cu3O7 superconducting thin film, we show that the procedure employed is effective

    PHYCOERYTHROCYANINS FROM Westiellopsis prolifica AND Nostoc rivulare: CHARACTERIZATION OF THE PHYCOVIOLOBILIN CHROMOPHORE IN BOTH STATES

    Get PDF
    Phycoerythrocyanin or fractions enriched in it have been isolated from the filamentous cyanobacteria, Westiellopsis prolifica ARM 365 and Nostoc rivulare ARM 212. Both show the photoreversible photochromism (difference maxima at 503 and 570 nm) characteristic of this pigment, which is related to the phycoviolobilin chromophore on the α-subunit. Native phycoerythrocyanin and its β-subunit show little if any reversible photochemistry in the 600–620 nm region, where the phycocyanobilin chromophores absorb maximally. Instead the phycocyanobilin chromophores are bleached irreversibly. At the same time, the data show that reversible photochemistry is a useful analytical tool to detect phycoerythrocyanin in cyanobacterial extracts. Fluorescence measurements indicate that: (i) the 510 nm absorbing isomer of the violobilin chromophore has only little fluorescence; and (ii) the energy transfer from the violobilin chromophores to the cyanin chromophores is efficient only in the 570 nm form

    On the Classification of Bulk and Boundary Conformal Field Theories

    Get PDF
    The classification of rational conformal field theories is reconsidered from the standpoint of boundary conditions. Solving Cardy's equation expressing the consistency condition on a cylinder is equivalent to finding integer valued representations of the fusion algebra. A complete solution not only yields the admissible boundary conditions but also gives valuable information on the bulk properties.Comment: 7 pages, LaTeX; minor correction

    This research aimed to find out the tourism potency, practice (habitusand domain capital), supporting and inhibiting dimensions, strategy, and theeffect of Kuwu Tourism Village Development in Kradenan Subdistrict ofGrobogan Regency of Central Java using Pierce F Bourdieu's Practical Theory and Robert K. Merton's Structural Functionalism Theory. This study was a qualitative research using case study strategy. The data source ofresearch included informant, archive and document. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling. Technique of collecting data used in thisresearch was in-depth interview and observation. The result of research show that many tourism potentials had not been explored yet in Kuwu Village,either social or cultural. Habitus and economic capital, social capital, cultural capital, and symbolic capital of Kuwu villagers could be utilized inKuwu tourism village domain to develop Kuwu tourism village. But in fact, the habitus and capital the Kuwu villagers had, had not been utilized anddeveloped optimally. The supporting dimensions in Kuwu tourism villagedevelopment included the presence of Bledug Kuwu natural phenomenon,social cultural potency, and accessible road. Meanwhile, the inhibitingdimension derived from government, community, physical condition andexternal parties (investor and Non Governmental Organization). The tourismdevelopment strategy was taken by regency government and villagegovernment, in which the development still focused on Bledug Kuwu tourismobject. The effect of Kuwu Tourism Village viewed from social economicaspect occurred only in some people obtaining additional income from theirparticipation in becoming food sellers, parking personnel and etc in BledugKuwu. The social cultural effect was the preserved Javanese traditional artwith the organization of art performance in Bledug Kuwu Tourism object. Theenvironmental effect could be seen only in the Kuwu (Krajan) Hamlet people who had disposed the rubbish in the permanent rubbish place
