Search for Supersymmetry in Di-Photon Final States at sqrt{s} = 1.96 TeV
We report results of a search for supersymmetry (SUSY) with gauge-mediated
symmetry breaking in di-photon events collected by the D0 experiment at the
Fermilab Tevatron Collider in 2002--2006. In 1.1 fb of data, we find no
significant excess beyond the background expected from the standard model and
set the most stringent lower limits to date for a standard benchmark model on
the lightest neutralino and chargino masses of 125 GeV and 229 GeV,
respectively, at 95% confidence

Static and simulated seismic testing of the TRG-7 through -16 shear wall structures
Results from the static, simulated seismic base excitation, and experimental modal analysis tests performed on the TRG-7 through -16 structures are reported. These results were used to establish the scalability of static and dynamic response measured on small structural models to the dynamic response of conventional concrete structures. In addition, these tests provided information concerning cumulative damage effects that occur in concrete structures when they are subjected to different dynamic load sequences. In contrast to previous results obtained in the early part of this program, TRG-7 through -16 responded to simulated seismic excitations with theoretical stiffness values until peak nominal base shear stress levels of 150 psi were reached. A summary of all experimental data obtained during this program is provided. 23 refs., 47 figs., 22 tabs
