Top quark FCNC couplings at future circular hadron electron colliders
A study of single top quark production via flavor changing neutral current
interactions at vertices is performed at future circular hadron
electron collider. The signal cross sections for the processes and in the collision of electron
beam with energy 60 GeV and proton beam with energy 50 TeV are
calculated. In the analysis, the invariant mass distributions of three jets
reconstructing top quark mass, requiring one b-tagged jet and other two jets
reconstructing the mass are used to count signal and background events
after all selection cuts. The upper limits on the anomalous flavor changing
neutral current couplings are found to be 0.01 at
future circular hadron electron collider for fb with the
fast simulation of detector effects. Signal significance depending on the
couplings is analyzed and an enhanced sensitivity is found to the
branching ratio BR() at the future circular hadron electron
collider when compared to the current experimental results.Comment: 11 pages, 4 Figures, 4 Tables, to appear in Phys. Rev.
Successful Treatment of Aortic Rupture with Endovascular Stent Grafting in a Patient with Mantle Cell Lymphoma
Purpose: To present a case of spontaneous aortic rupture in the course of mantle cell lymphoma and successful management with endovascular repair. Case Report: A 69-year-old woman presented with a cervical mass. The patient was found to have stage IIIA and Mantle Cell Lymphoma International Prognostic Index (MIPI) 4. She was placed in an intermediate-risk group. The patient received an initial cycle of systemic chemotherapy consisting of rituximab, anthracycline, vincristine and methyl prednisolone. During follow-up, she developed abdominal aortic rupture secondary to intramural hematoma which was successfully managed with endovascular exclusion. Conclusion: Hemodynamic changes can be seen during the course of lymphoma subsequent to systemic chemotherapy. These changes might be related to the spontaneous rupture of the main vessels. Endovascular repair may be a more appropriate treatment option than open surgery, especially in a patient with multiple comorbidities
Project PROMETHEUS: Design and Construction of a Radio Frequency Quadrupole at TAEK
The PROMETHEUS Project is ongoing for the design and development of a 4-vane
radio frequency quadrupole (RFQ) together with its H+ ion source, a low energy
beam transport (LEBT) line and diagnostics section. The main goal of the
project is to achieve the acceleration of the low energy ions up to 1.5 MeV by
an RFQ (352 MHz) shorter than 2 meter. A plasma ion source is being developed
to produce a 20 keV, 1 mA H+ beam. Simulation results for ion source,
transmission and beam dynamics are presented together with analytical studies
performed with newly developed RFQ design code DEMIRCI. Simulation results
shows that a beam transmission 99% could be achieved at 1.7 m downstream
reaching an energy of 1.5 MeV. As the first phase an Aluminum RFQ prototype,
the so-called cold model, will be built for low power RF characterization. In
this contribution the status of the project, design considerations, simulation
results, the various diagnostics techniques and RFQ manufacturing issues are
discussed.Comment: 4 pages, 8 figures, Proceedings of the 2nd International Beam

Screening of antioxidant properties of the apple juice using the front-face synchronous fluorescence and chemometrics
Fluorescence spectroscopy is gaining increasing attention in food analysis due to its higher sensitivity and selectivity as compared to other spectroscopic techniques. Synchronous scanning fluorescence technique is particularly useful in studies of multi-fluorophoric food samples, providing a further improvement of selectivity by reduction in the spectral overlapping and suppressing light-scattering interferences. Presently, we study the feasibility of the prediction of the total phenolics, flavonoids, and antioxidant capacity using front-face synchronous fluorescence spectra of apple juices. Commercial apple juices from different product ranges were studied. Principal component analysis (PCA) applied to the unfolded synchronous fluorescence spectra was used to compare the fluorescence of the entire sample set. The regression analysis was performed using partial least squares (PLS1 and PLS2) methods on the unfolded total synchronous and on the single-offset synchronous fluorescence spectra. The best calibration models for all of the studied parameters were obtained using the PLS1 method for the single-offset synchronous spectra. The models for the prediction of the total flavonoid content had the best performance; the optimal model was obtained for the analysis of the synchronous fluorescence spectra at Delta lambda = 110 nm (R (2) = 0.870, residual predictive deviation (RPD) = 2.7). The optimal calibration models for the prediction of the total phenolic content (Delta lambda = 80 nm, R (2) = 0.766, RPD = 2.0) and the total antioxidant capacity (Delta lambda = 70 nm, R (2) = 0.787, RPD = 2.1) had only an approximate predictive ability. These results demonstrate that synchronous fluorescence could be a useful tool in fast semi-quantitative screening for the antioxidant properties of the apple juices.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

A Large Hadron Electron Collider at CERN
This document provides a brief overview of the recently published report on
the design of the Large Hadron Electron Collider (LHeC), which comprises its
physics programme, accelerator physics, technology and main detector concepts.
The LHeC exploits and develops challenging, though principally existing,
accelerator and detector technologies. This summary is complemented by brief
illustrations of some of the highlights of the physics programme, which relies
on a vastly extended kinematic range, luminosity and unprecedented precision in
deep inelastic scattering. Illustrations are provided regarding high precision
QCD, new physics (Higgs, SUSY) and electron-ion physics. The LHeC is designed
to run synchronously with the LHC in the twenties and to achieve an integrated
luminosity of O(100) fb. It will become the cleanest high resolution
microscope of mankind and will substantially extend as well as complement the
investigation of the physics of the TeV energy scale, which has been enabled by
the LHC

The Large Hadron-Electron Collider at the HL-LHC
The Large Hadron-Electron Collider (LHeC) is designed to move the field of deep inelastic scattering (DIS) to the energy and intensity frontier of particle physics. Exploiting energy-recovery technology, it collides a novel, intense electron beam with a proton or ion beam from the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC). The accelerator and interaction region are designed for concurrent electron-proton and proton-proton operations. This report represents an update to the LHeC's conceptual design report (CDR), published in 2012. It comprises new results on the parton structure of the proton and heavier nuclei, QCD dynamics, and electroweak and top-quark physics. It is shown how the LHeC will open a new chapter of nuclear particle physics by extending the accessible kinematic range of lepton-nucleus scattering by several orders of magnitude. Due to its enhanced luminosity and large energy and the cleanliness of the final hadronic states, the LHeC has a strong Higgs physics programme and its own discovery potential for new physics. Building on the 2012 CDR, this report contains a detailed updated design for the energy-recovery electron linac (ERL), including a new lattice, magnet and superconducting radio-frequency technology, and further components. Challenges of energy recovery are described, and the lower-energy, high-current, three-turn ERL facility, PERLE at Orsay, is presented, which uses the LHeC characteristics serving as a development facility for the design and operation of the LHeC. An updated detector design is presented corresponding to the acceptance, resolution, and calibration goals that arise from the Higgs and parton-density-function physics programmes. This paper also presents novel results for the Future Circular Collider in electron-hadron (FCC-eh) mode, which utilises the same ERL technology to further extend the reach of DIS to even higher centre-of-mass energies.Peer reviewe
HE-LHC: The High-Energy Large Hadron Collider â Future Circular Collider Conceptual Design Report Volume 4
In response to the 2013 Update of the European Strategy for Particle Physics (EPPSU), the Future Circular Collider (FCC) study was launched as a world-wide international collaboration hosted by CERN. The FCC study covered an energy-frontier hadron collider (FCC-hh), a highest-luminosity high-energy lepton collider (FCC-ee), the corresponding 100 km tunnel infrastructure, as well as the physics opportunities of these two colliders, and a high-energy LHC, based on FCC-hh technology. This document constitutes the third volume of the FCC Conceptual Design Report, devoted to the hadron collider FCC-hh. It summarizes the FCC-hh physics discovery opportunities, presents the FCC-hh accelerator design, performance reach, and staged operation plan, discusses the underlying technologies, the civil engineering and technical infrastructure, and also sketches a possible implementation. Combining ingredients from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the high-luminosity LHC upgrade and adding novel technologies and approaches, the FCC-hh design aims at significantly extending the energy frontier to 100 TeV. Its unprecedented centre-of-mass collision energy will make the FCC-hh a unique instrument to explore physics beyond the Standard Model, offering great direct sensitivity to new physics and discoveries
