Universal deformation rings of modules for algebras of dihedral type of polynomial growth
Let k be an algebraically closed field, and let \Lambda\ be an algebra of
dihedral type of polynomial growth as classified by Erdmann and Skowro\'{n}ski.
We describe all finitely generated \Lambda-modules V whose stable endomorphism
rings are isomorphic to k and determine their universal deformation rings
R(\Lambda,V). We prove that only three isomorphism types occur for
R(\Lambda,V): k, k[[t]]/(t^2) and k[[t]].Comment: 11 pages, 2 figure
A Development Environment for Visual Physics Analysis
The Visual Physics Analysis (VISPA) project integrates different aspects of
physics analyses into a graphical development environment. It addresses the
typical development cycle of (re-)designing, executing and verifying an
analysis. The project provides an extendable plug-in mechanism and includes
plug-ins for designing the analysis flow, for running the analysis on batch
systems, and for browsing the data content. The corresponding plug-ins are
based on an object-oriented toolkit for modular data analysis. We introduce the
main concepts of the project, describe the technical realization and
demonstrate the functionality in example applications
CMS Barrel Pixel Detector Overview
The pixel detector is the innermost tracking device of the CMS experiment at
the LHC. It is built from two independent sub devices, the pixel barrel and the
end disks. The barrel consists of three concentric layers around the beam pipe
with mean radii of 4.4, 7.3 and 10.2 cm. There are two end disks on each side
of the interaction point at 34.5 cm and 46.5 cm. This article gives an overview
of the pixel barrel detector, its mechanical support structure, electronics
components, services and its expected performance.Comment: Proceedings of Vertex06, 15th International Workshop on Vertex

Compact Frontend-Electronics and Bidirectional 3.3 Gbps Optical Datalink for Fast Proportional Chamber Readout
The 9600 channels of the multi-wire proportional chamber of the H1 experiment
at HERA have to be read out within 96 ns and made available to the trigger
system. The tight spatial conditions at the rear end flange require a compact
bidirectional readout electronics with minimal power consumption and dead
material.
A solution using 40 identical optical link modules, each transferring the
trigger information with a physical rate of 4 x 832 Mbps via optical fibers,
has been developed and commisioned. The analog pulses from the chamber can be
monitored and the synchronization to the global HERA clock signal is ensured.Comment: 13 pages, 10 figure
Physics Analysis Expert PAX: First Applications
PAX (Physics Analysis Expert) is a novel, C++ based toolkit designed to
assist teams in particle physics data analysis issues. The core of PAX are
event interpretation containers, holding relevant information about and
possible interpretations of a physics event. Providing this new level of
abstraction beyond the results of the detector reconstruction programs, PAX
facilitates the buildup and use of modern analysis factories. Class structure
and user command syntax of PAX are set up to support expert teams as well as
newcomers in preparing for the challenges expected to arise in the data
analysis at future hadron colliders.Comment: Talk from the 2003 Computing in High Energy and Nuclear Physics

A novel physiological role for ARF1 in the formation of bidirectional tubules from the Golgi.
Capitalizing on CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing techniques and super-resolution nanoscopy, we explore the role of the small GTPase ARF1 in mediating transport steps at the Golgi. Besides its well-established role in generating COPI vesicles, we find that ARF1 is also involved in the formation of long (∼3 µm), thin (∼110 nm diameter) tubular carriers. The anterograde and retrograde tubular carriers are both largely free of the classical Golgi coat proteins coatomer (COPI) and clathrin. Instead, they contain ARF1 along their entire length at a density estimated to be in the range of close packing. Experiments using a mutant form of ARF1 affecting GTP hydrolysis suggest that ARF1[GTP] is functionally required for the tubules to form. Dynamic confocal and stimulated emission depletion imaging shows that ARF1-rich tubular compartments fall into two distinct classes containing 1) anterograde cargoes and clathrin clusters or 2) retrograde cargoes and coatomer clusters
Construction and Performance of a Micro-Pattern Stereo Detector with Two Gas Electron Multipliers
The construction of a micro-pattern gas detector of dimensions 40x10 cm**2 is
described. Two gas electron multiplier foils (GEM) provide the internal
amplification stages. A two-layer readout structure was used, manufactured in
the same technology as the GEM foils. The strips of each layer cross at an
effective crossing angle of 6.7 degrees and have a 406 um pitch. The
performance of the detector has been evaluated in a muon beam at CERN using a
silicon telescope as reference system. The position resolutions of two
orthogonal coordinates are measured to be 50 um and 1 mm, respectively. The
muon detection efficiency for two-dimensional space points reaches 96%.Comment: 21 pages, 17 figure
Entanglement can increase asymptotic rates of zero-error classical communication over classical channels
It is known that the number of different classical messages which can be
communicated with a single use of a classical channel with zero probability of
decoding error can sometimes be increased by using entanglement shared between
sender and receiver. It has been an open question to determine whether
entanglement can ever increase the zero-error communication rates achievable in
the limit of many channel uses. In this paper we show, by explicit examples,
that entanglement can indeed increase asymptotic zero-error capacity, even to
the extent that it is equal to the normal capacity of the channel.
Interestingly, our examples are based on the exceptional simple root systems E7
and E8.Comment: 14 pages, 2 figur
