    Uniaxially strained (011)Si is attractive for high performance p-channel metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor devices due to the predicted high hole mobilities. Here, we demonstrate the realization of purely uniaxially relaxed (011) SiGe virtual substrates by He+ ion implantation and thermal annealing. Perfect uniaxial relaxation is evidenced by precise ion channeling angular yield scan measurements and plan view transmission electron microscopy as predicted theoretically on the basis of the layer symmetry dependent dislocation dynamics. Strikingly, misfit dislocations propagate exclusively along the [0 (1) over bar1] direction in the (011) oriented crystal and, in contrast to (100)Si, no crosshatch is formed. We describe dislocation formation and propagation inducing strain relaxation of (011)SiGe and enlighten the differences to (100) oriented SiGe on Si

    A Cylindrical GEM Inner Tracker for the BESIII experiment at IHEP

    The Beijing Electron Spectrometer III (BESIII) is a multipurpose detector that collects data provided by the collision in the Beijing Electron Positron Collider II (BEPCII), hosted at the Institute of High Energy Physics of Beijing. Since the beginning of its operation, BESIII has collected the world largest sample of J/{\psi} and {\psi}(2s). Due to the increase of the luminosity up to its nominal value of 10^33 cm-2 s-1 and aging effect, the MDC decreases its efficiency in the first layers up to 35% with respect to the value in 2014. Since BESIII has to take data up to 2022 with the chance to continue up to 2027, the Italian collaboration proposed to replace the inner part of the MDC with three independent layers of Cylindrical triple-GEM (CGEM). The CGEM-IT project will deploy several new features and innovation with respect the other current GEM based detector: the {\mu}TPC and analog readout, with time and charge measurements will allow to reach the 130 {\mu}m spatial resolution in 1 T magnetic field requested by the BESIII collaboration. In this proceeding, an update of the status of the project will be presented, with a particular focus on the results with planar and cylindrical prototypes with test beams data. These results are beyond the state of the art for GEM technology in magnetic field

    Deep sub-threshold Ξ\Xi^- production in Ar+KCl reactions at 1.76A GeV

    Full text link
    We report first results on a deep sub-threshold production of the doubly strange hyperon Ξ\Xi^- in a heavy-ion reaction. At a beam energy of 1.76A GeV the reaction Ar+KCl was studied with the High Acceptance Di-Electron Spectrometer (HADES) at SIS18/GSI. A high-statistics and high-purity Λ\Lambda sample was collected, allowing for the investigation of the decay channel ΞΛπ\Xi^- \to \Lambda \pi^-. The deduced Ξ/(Λ+Σ0)\Xi^-/(\Lambda+\Sigma^0) production ratio of (5.6±1.21.7+1.8)103(5.6 \pm 1.2 ^{+1.8}_{-1.7})\cdot 10^{-3} is significantly larger than available model predictions.Comment: 4 pages, including 4 figure

    Study of the quasi-free npnpπ+πnp \to np \pi^+\pi^- reaction with a deuterium beam at 1.25 GeV/nucleon

    The tagged quasi-free npnpπ+πnp \to np\pi^+\pi^- reaction has been studied experimentally with the High Acceptance Di-Electron Spectrometer (HADES) at GSI at a deuteron incident beam energy of 1.25 GeV/nucleon (s\sqrt s \sim 2.42 GeV/c for the quasi-free collision). For the first time, differential distributions for π+π\pi^{+}\pi^{-} production in npnp collisions have been collected in the region corresponding to the large transverse momenta of the secondary particles. The invariant mass and angular distributions for the npnpπ+πnp\rightarrow np\pi^{+}\pi^{-} reaction are compared with different models. This comparison confirms the dominance of the tt-channel with ΔΔ\Delta\Delta contribution. It also validates the changes previously introduced in the Valencia model to describe two-pion production data in other isospin channels, although some deviations are observed, especially for the π+π\pi^{+}\pi^{-} invariant mass spectrum. The extracted total cross section is also in much better agreement with this model. Our new measurement puts useful constraints for the existence of the conjectured dibaryon resonance at mass M\sim 2.38 GeV and with width Γ\Gamma\sim 70 MeV

    The heme synthesis-export system regulates the tricarboxylic acid cycle flux and oxidative phosphorylation

    Get PDF
    Heme is an iron-containing porphyrin of vital importance for cell energetic metabolism. High rates of heme synthesis are commonly observed in proliferating cells. Moreover, the cell-surface heme exporter feline leukemia virus subgroup C receptor 1a (FLVCR1a) is overexpressed in several tumor types. However, the reasons why heme synthesis and export are enhanced in highly proliferating cells remain unknown. Here, we illustrate a functional axis between heme synthesis and heme export: heme efflux through the plasma membrane sustains heme synthesis, and implementation of the two processes down-modulates the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle flux and oxidative phosphorylation. Conversely, inhibition of heme export reduces heme synthesis and promotes the TCA cycle fueling and flux as well as oxidative phosphorylation. These data indicate that the heme synthesis-export system modulates the TCA cycle and oxidative metabolism and provide amechanistic basis for the observation that both processes are enhanced in cells with high-energy demand

    In-Medium Effects on K0 Mesons in Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collisions

    Full text link
    We present the transverse momentum spectra and rapidity distributions of π\pi^{-} and KS0^0_S in Ar+KCl reactions at a beam kinetic energy of 1.756 A GeV measured with the spectrometer HADES. The reconstructed KS0^0_S sample is characterized by good event statistics for a wide range in momentum and rapidity. We compare the experimental π\pi^{-} and KS0^0_S distributions to predictions by the IQMD model. The model calculations show that KS0^0_S at low tranverse momenta constitute a particularly well suited tool to investigate the kaon in-medium potential. Our KS0^0_S data suggest a strong repulsive in-medium K0^0 potential of about 40 MeV strength.Comment: 10 pages, 10 figures, accepted by Phys. Rev.

    This document is the Technical Design Report covering the two large spectrometer magnets of the PANDA detector set-up. It shows the conceptual design of the magnets and their anticipated performance. It precedes the tender and procurement of the magnets and, hence, is subject to possible modifications arising during this process.Comment: 10 pages, 14MB, accepted by FAIR STI in May 2009, editors: Inti Lehmann (chair), Andrea Bersani, Yuri Lobanov, Jost Luehning, Jerzy Smyrski, Technical Coordiantor: Lars Schmitt, Bernd Lewandowski (deputy), Spokespersons: Ulrich Wiedner, Paola Gianotti (deputy

    Inclusive dielectron production in proton-proton collisions at 2.2 GeV beam energy

    Get PDF
    Data on inclusive dielectron production are presented for the reaction p+p at 2.2 GeV measured with the High Acceptance DiElectron Spectrometer (HADES). Our results supplement data obtained earlier in this bombarding energy regime by DLS and HADES. The comparison with the 2.09 GeV DLS data is discussed. The reconstructed e+e- distributions are confronted with simulated pair cocktails, revealing an excess yield at invariant masses around 0.5 GeV/c2. Inclusive cross sections of neutral pion and eta production are obtained
