Nuclear Attenuation of Fast Hadrons Produced in Charged-Current Neutrino and Antineutrino Interactions in Neon
The production of hadrons in charged-current (anti)neutrino interactions is
studied with the bubble chamber BEBC exposed ot the CERN (anti)neutrino
wide-band beam. Fast-hadron production in a neon target is found to be
attennuated as compared to that in a hydrogen target. This feature is discussed
within the theoretical models based on the idea of a hadron formation length.
The experimental results favour the `constituent' over the `yo-yo' length
concept, and suggest a quark cross-section in the order of 3mb.Comment: 14 pages + 7 figures, ps fil
Quark fragmentation to , , , and in the nuclear environment
The influence of the nuclear medium on lepto-production of hadrons was
studied in the HERMES experiment at DESY in semi-inclusive deep-inelastic
scattering of 27.6 GeV positrons off deuterium, nitrogen and krypton targets.
The differential multiplicity for krypton relative to that of deuterium has
been measured for the first time for various identified hadrons (,
, , , , and ) as a function of the virtual
photon energy , the fraction of this energy transferred to the hadron,
and the hadron transverse momentum squared . The multiplicity ratio is
strongly reduced in the nuclear medium at low and high , with
significant differences among the various hadrons. The distribution of the
hadron transverse momentum is broadened towards high in the nuclear
medium, in a manner resembling the Cronin effect previously observed in
collisions of heavy ions and protons with nuclei.Comment: 8 pages, 5 figure
Technical Design Report for the: PANDA Micro Vertex Detector
This document illustrates the technical layout and the expected performance
of the Micro Vertex Detector (MVD) of the PANDA experiment. The MVD will detect
charged particles as close as possible to the interaction zone. Design criteria
and the optimisation process as well as the technical solutions chosen are
discussed and the results of this process are subjected to extensive Monte
Carlo physics studies. The route towards realisation of the detector is
outlined.Comment: 189 pages, 225 figures, 41 table
