The Formation of Morphological Structures of Carbon and Oxide Silicon Nanoparticles
The concept morphostructure formations nanosized individuals on the basis of carbon and quartz is offered. Under offered circuit in “the first stage” substances are generated by atoms – “elementary individuals”. They - form “simple morphostructures”, for example, fullerenes, film and a one-wall carbon tube. They have, at the best the two-dimensional structural order. The second stage of growth morphostructures is connected to formation of more complex of “elementary particles” on the basis of the approximated rounded molecules. They - form “simple morphostructures”, for example, fullerenes, film and carbon tube also. The third stage - clusters. Clusters, similarly to atoms and molecules, can form cyclic formations (oligomer/polymers), crystals and can enter structure of the mixed constructions of a layer. They can form also simple morphostructures, for example, fullerenes, film and carbon tube. The fourth stage - compact formations of polymer and so on
Clustering in light nuclei in fragmentation above 1 A GeV
The relativistic invariant approach is applied to analyzing the 3.3 A GeV
Ne fragmentation in a nuclear track emulsion. New results on few-body
dissociations have been obtained from the emulsion exposures to 2.1 A GeV
N and 1.2 A GeV Be nuclei. It can be asserted that the use of the
invariant approach is an effective means of obtaining conclusions about the
behavior of systems involving a few He nuclei at a relative energy close to 1
MeV per nucleon. The first observations of fragmentation of 1.2 A GeV B
and C nuclei in emulsion are described. The presented results allow one
to justify the development of few-body aspects of nuclear astrophysics.Comment: 7 pages, 8 figures, 3 tables, Nuclear Physics in Astrophysics-2,

Energy and time resolution for a LYSO matrix prototype of the Mu2e experiment
We have measured the performances of a LYSO crystal matrix prototype tested
with electron and photon beams in the energy range 60450 MeV. This study has
been carried out to determine the achievable energy and time resolutions for
the calorimeter of the Mu2e experiment.Comment: 2 pages, 3 figures, 13th Pisa Meeting on Advanced Detector
The neutron-proton charge-exchange amplitudes measured in the dp -> ppn reaction
The unpolarised differential cross section and the two deuteron tensor
analysing powers A_{xx} and A_{yy} of the pol{d}p -> (pp)n charge-exchange
reaction have been measured with the ANKE spectrometer at the COSY storage
ring. Using deuteron beams with energies 1.2, 1.6, 1.8, and 2.27 GeV, data were
obtained for small momentum transfers to a (pp) system with low excitation
energy. The results at the three lower energies are consistent with impulse
approximation predictions based upon the current knowledge of the
neutron-proton amplitudes. However, at 2.27GeV, where these amplitudes are far
more uncertain, agreement requires a reduction in the overall double-spin-flip
contribution, with an especially significant effect in the longitudinal
direction. These conclusions are supported by measurements of the
deuteron-proton spin-correlation parameters C_{x,x} and C_{y,y} that were
carried out in the pol{d}pol{p} -> (pp)n reaction at 1.2 and 2.27GeV. The
values obtained for the proton analysing power also suggest the need for a
radical re-evaluation of the neutron-proton elastic scattering amplitudes at
the higher energy. It is therefore clear that such measurements can provide a
valuable addition to the neutron-proton database in the charge-exchange region.Comment: 13 pages with 13 figure
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.
