Jet Energy Density in Hadron-Hadron Collisions at High Energies
The average particle multiplicity density dN/deta is the dynamical quantity
which reflects some regularities of particle production in low-pT range. The
quantity is an important ingredient of z-scaling. Experimental results on
charged particle density are available for pp, pA and AA collisions while
experimental properties of the jet density are still an open question. The goal
of this work is to find the variable which will reflect the main features of
the jet production in low transverse energy range and play the role of the
scale factor for the scaling function psi(z) and variable z in data
z-presentation. The appropriate candidate is the variable we called "scaled jet
energy density". Scaled jet energy density is the probability to have a jet
with defined ET in defined xT and pseudorapidity regions. The PYTHIA6.2 Monte
Carlo generator is used for calculation of scaled jet energy density in
proton-proton collisions over a high energy range (sqrt s = 200-14000 GeV) and
at eta = 0. The properties of the new variable are discussed and sensitivity to
"physical scenarios" applied in the standard Monte Carlo generator is noted.
The results of scaled jet energy density at LHC energies are presented and
compared with predictions based on z-scaling.Comment: 11 pages, LaTeX, 8 figures, Presented at the XVII International

Chemical surface deposition of CdS thin films from CdI2 aqueous solution
For the first time using CdI2 solution CdS films on glass and ITO coated glass substrates were produced by the method of layerwise chemical surface deposition (ChSD). CdS thin films with the widths from 40 nm to 100 nm were obtained for windows in solar cells based on CdS/CdTe heterojunctions. Changes of the structural and optical properties of CdS films due to air annealing are shown.

Photon Physics in Heavy Ion Collisions at the LHC
Various pion and photon production mechanisms in high-energy nuclear
collisions at RHIC and LHC are discussed. Comparison with RHIC data is done
whenever possible. The prospect of using electromagnetic probes to characterize
quark-gluon plasma formation is assessed.Comment: Writeup of the working group "Photon Physics" for the CERN Yellow

The Gross--Llewellyn Smith Sum Rule in the Analytic Approach to Perturbative QCD
We apply analytic perturbation theory to the Gross--Llewellyn Smith sum rule.
We study the evolution and the renormalization scheme dependence of the
analytic three-loop QCD correction to this sum rule, and demonstrate that the
results are practically renormalization scheme independent and lead to rather
different evolution than the standard perturbative correction possesses.Comment: 17 pages, 9 eps figures, REVTe
Thomson scattering diagnostics at the Globus M2 tokamak
The paper is devoted to the Thomson scattering (TS) diagnostics recently
developed for the Globus-M2 spherical tokamak and prototyping the ITER divertor
TS diagnostics. The distinctive features of the system are the use of
spectrometers, acquisition system and lasers that meet the base requirements
for ITER TS diagnostics. The paper describes the diagnostic system that allows
precise measurements of TS signals, as well as the results of the first
measurements of electron temperature and density in both central region of the
plasma column and scrape-off layer. The system provides measurements of
electron temperature in the range of 5 eV to 5 keV and density
in the range of . The use of
two ITER-grade probing lasers of different wavelengths (Nd:YAG 1064.5 nm and
Nd:YLF 1047.3 nm) allows reliable measurement of in multi-colour mode,
i.e., assuming that spectral calibration is unknown
Azimuthal anisotropy and correlations in the hard scattering regime at RHIC
Azimuthal anisotropy () and two-particle angular correlations of high
charged hadrons have been measured in Au+Au collisions at
=130 GeV for transverse momenta up to 6 GeV/c, where hard
processes are expected to contribute significantly. The two-particle angular
correlations exhibit elliptic flow and a structure suggestive of fragmentation
of high partons. The monotonic rise of for GeV/c is
consistent with collective hydrodynamical flow calculations. At \pT>3 GeV/c a
saturation of is observed which persists up to GeV/c.Comment: As publishe
Azimuthal anisotropy of K0S and Lambda + Lambda -bar production at midrapidity from Au+Au collisions at sqrt[sNN]=130 GeV
We report STAR results on the azimuthal anisotropy parameter v2 for strange particles K0S, Lambda , and Lambda -bar at midrapidity in Au+Au collisions at sqrt[sNN]=130 GeV at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. The value of v2 as a function of transverse momentum, pt, of the produced particle and collision centrality is presented for both particles up to pt~3.0 GeV/c. A strong pt dependence in v2 is observed up to 2.0 GeV/c. The v2 measurement is compared with hydrodynamic model calculations. The physics implications of the pt integrated v2 magnitude as a function of particle mass are also discussed.Alle Autoren: C. Adler, Z. Ahammed, C. Allgower, J. Amonett, B. D. Anderson, M.

Disappearance of back-to-back high hadron correlations in central Au+Au collisions at = 200 GeV
Azimuthal correlations for large transverse momentum charged hadrons have
been measured over a wide pseudo-rapidity range and full azimuth in Au+Au and
p+p collisions at = 200 GeV. The small-angle correlations
observed in p+p collisions and at all centralities of Au+Au collisions are
characteristic of hard-scattering processes already observed in elementary
collisions. A strong back-to-back correlation exists for p+p and peripheral Au
+ Au. In contrast, the back-to-back correlations are reduced considerably in
the most central Au+Au collisions, indicating substantial interaction as the
hard-scattered partons or their fragmentation products traverse the medium.Comment: submitted to Phys. Rev. Let
Azimuthal anisotropy of K0s and Lambda prduction at mid-rapidity from Au+Au collisions at root s = 130 GeV
We report STAR results on the azimuthal anisotropy parameter v2 for strange
particles K0S, L and Lbar at midrapidity in Au+Au collisions at sNN = 130 GeV
at RHIC. The value of v2 as a function of transverse momentum of the produced
particles pt and collision centrality is presented for both particles up to pt
3.0 GeV/c. A strong pt dependence in v2 is observed up to 2.0 GeV/c. The v2
measurement is compared with hydrodynamic model calculations. The physics
implications of the pt integrated v2 magnitude as a function of particle mass
are also discussed.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures, by the STAR collaboratio
Elliptic flow from two- and four-particle correlations in Au + Au collisions at sqrt{s_{NN}} = 130 GeV
Elliptic flow holds much promise for studying the early-time thermalization
attained in ultrarelativistic nuclear collisions. Flow measurements also
provide a means of distinguishing between hydrodynamic models and calculations
which approach the low density (dilute gas) limit. Among the effects that can
complicate the interpretation of elliptic flow measurements are azimuthal
correlations that are unrelated to the reaction plane (non-flow correlations).
Using data for Au + Au collisions at sqrt{s_{NN}} = 130 GeV from the STAR TPC,
it is found that four-particle correlation analyses can reliably separate flow
and non-flow correlation signals. The latter account for on average about 15%
of the observed second-harmonic azimuthal correlation, with the largest
relative contribution for the most peripheral and the most central collisions.
The results are also corrected for the effect of flow variations within
centrality bins. This effect is negligible for all but the most central bin,
where the correction to the elliptic flow is about a factor of two. A simple
new method for two-particle flow analysis based on scalar products is
described. An analysis based on the distribution of the magnitude of the flow
vector is also described.Comment: minor text change
