Computation of the weakly relativistic plasma dispersion functions using superasymptotic and hyperasymptotic expansions
A new method to compute the weakly relativistic plasma dispersion functions for complex argument is presented. It is demonstrated that Jacobi fractions represent those functions asymptotically for z→ ∞ in the upper semi-plane.Предлагается новый метод вычисления слаборелятивистских плазменных дисперсионных функций комплексного аргумента.Пропонується новий метод обчислення слабкорелятивістських плазмових дисперсійних функцій комплексного аргументу
Electron Bernstein waves emission in the TJ-II Stellarator
Taking advantage of the electron Bernstein waves heating (EBWH) system of the
TJ-II stellarator, an electron Bernstein emission (EBE) diagnostic was
installed. Its purpose is to investigate the B-X-O radiation properties in the
zone where optimum theoretical EBW coupling is predicted. An internal movable
mirror shared by both systems allows us to collect the EBE radiation along the
same line of sight that is used for EBW heating. The theoretical EBE has been
calculated for different orientations of the internal mirror using the TRUBA
code as ray tracer. A comparison with experimental data obtained in NBI
discharges is carried out. The results provide a valuable information regarding
the experimental O-X mode conversion window expected in the EBW heating
experiments. Furthermore, the characterization of the radiation polarization
shows evidence of the underlying B-X-O conversion process.Comment: 21 pages, 14 figure
Fast computation of the exact plasma dispersion functions
The paper is concerned with a computation of the exact relativistic plasma dispersion functions for complex argument
z = x + iy in the region Q : y ≥ 0 on the base the theory of the continued fractions of Jacobi. It is first observed that
these fractions represent those functions asymptotically for z → ∞ in the sector Q.На основі теорії ланцюгових дробів розвивається метод швидкого обчислення точних релятивістських

Cs-induced charge transfer on (2x4)-GaAs(001) studied by photoemission
Cesium adsorption on 2x4 GaAs (001) was studied by photoemission and low
energy electron diffraction. The different Cs induced changes of the As 3d and
Ga 3d core level spectra show that charge transfer is almost complete for Ga
surface sites, but is negligible to surface As at a coverage smaller than 0.3
ML. The situation is opposite for a coverage larger than 0.3ML, at which
transfer occurs to As but no longer to Ga. Charge transfer to As atoms leads to
disordering and destabilization and induces surface conversion from the As-rich
surface to the Ga-rich 4x2 one after annealing at a reduced temperature of 450
C
Quality Assurance on a custom SiPMs array for the Mu2e experiment
The Mu2e experiment at Fermilab will search for the coherent
conversion on aluminum atoms. The detector system consists of a straw tube
tracker and a crystal calorimeter. A pre-production of 150 Silicon
Photomultiplier arrays for the Mu2e calorimeter has been procured. A detailed
quality assur- ance has been carried out on each SiPM for the determination of
its own operation voltage, gain, dark current and PDE. The measurement of the
mean-time-to-failure for a small random sample of the pro-production group has
been also completed as well as the determination of the dark current increase
as a function of the ioninizing and non-ioninizing dose.Comment: 4 pages, 10 figures, conference proceeding for NSS-MIC 201
Design, status and perspective of the Mu2e crystal calorimeter
The Mu2e experiment at Fermilab will search for the charged lepton flavor
violating process of neutrino-less coherent conversion in the field
of an aluminum nucleus. Mu2e will reach a single event sensitivity of about
that corresponds to four orders of magnitude improvements
with respect to the current best limit. The detector system consists of a straw
tube tracker and a crystal calorimeter made of undoped CsI coupled with Silicon
Photomultipliers. The calorimeter was designed to be operable in a harsh
environment where about 10 krad/year will be delivered in the hottest region
and work in presence of 1 T magnetic field. The calorimeter role is to perform
/e separation to suppress cosmic muons mimiking the signal, while
providing a high level trigger and a seeding the track search in the tracker.
In this paper we present the calorimeter design and the latest RD results.Comment: 4 pages, conference proceeding for a presentation held at TIPP'2017.

The Mu2e undoped CsI crystal calorimeter
The Mu2e experiment at Fermilab will search for Charged Lepton Flavor
Violating conversion of a muon to an electron in an atomic field. The Mu2e
detector is composed of a tracker, an electromagnetic calorimeter and an
external system, surrounding the solenoid, to veto cosmic rays. The calorimeter
plays an important role to provide: a) excellent particle identification
capabilities; b) a fast trigger filter; c) an easier tracker track
reconstruction. Two disks, located downstream of the tracker, contain 674 pure
CsI crystals each. Each crystal is read out by two arrays of UV-extended SiPMs.
The choice of the crystals and SiPMs has been finalized after a thorough test
campaign. A first small scale prototype consisting of 51 crystals and 102 SiPM
arrays has been exposed to an electron beam at the BTF (Beam Test Facility) in
Frascati. Although the readout electronics were not the final, results show
that the current design is able to meet the timing and energy resolution
required by the Mu2e experiment.Comment: 6 pages, 8 figures, proceedings of the "Calorimetry for the high
