Identified kaon production in Ar+Sc collisions at SPS energies
NA61/SHINE is a fixed target experiment at the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron.
The main goals of the experiment are to discover the critical point of strongly
interacting matter and to study the properties of the onset of deconfinement.
In order to reach these goals, a study of hadron production properties is
performed in nucleus-nucleus, proton-proton and proton-nucleus interactions as
a function of collision energy and size of the colliding nuclei. In this talk,
the newest preliminary results on kaon spectra produced in Ar+Sc collisions at
three beam momenta (30A, 40A and 75A) will be shown. The distributions of
transverse mass and rapidity will be compared with results of NA61/SHINE (p+p,
Be+Be) and NA49 (Pb+Pb, C+C, Si+Si), as well as with available world data
News on strangeness production from NA61/SHINE
NA61/SHINE is a fixed target experiment at the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron.
The main goals of the experiment are to discover the critical point of strongly
interacting matter and to study the properties of the onset of deconfinement.
In order to reach these goals, a study of hadron production properties is
performed in nucleus-nucleus, proton-proton and proton-nucleus interactions as
a function of collision energy and size of the colliding nuclei. In this talk,
the new results on identified charged kaon production in the intermediate size
system (Ar+Sc and Be+Be) collisions at SPS beam momentum range (13A-150A GeV/c)
will be shown. Additionally, the new measurements of strange mesons (KS0),
resonances (K0*(892), Xi(1530) 0 and Xi0(1530)) and baryons (Xi-(1321),
Xi+(1321)) produced in p+p interactions are presented
Two-particle correlations in azimuthal angle and pseudorapidity in inelastic p + p interactions at the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron
Results on two-particle ΔηΔϕ correlations in inelastic p + p interactions at 20, 31, 40, 80, and 158 GeV/c are presented. The measurements were performed using the large acceptance NA61/SHINE hadron spectrometer at the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron. The data show structures which can be attributed mainly to effects of resonance decays, momentum conservation, and quantum statistics. The results are compared with the Epos and UrQMD models.ISSN:1434-6044ISSN:1434-605
Recent measurements of identified hadron spectra and multiplicities in Ar+Sc and Be+Be collisions at SPS energies
NA61/SHINE is a fixed target experiment at the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron. The main goals of the experiment are to discover the critical point of strongly interacting matter and to study the properties of the onset of deconfinement. In order to reach these goals, a study of hadron production properties is performed in nucleus-nucleus, proton-proton and proton-nucleus interactions as a function of collision energy and size of the colliding nuclei. In this talk, the newest preliminary results on identified hadron spectra produced in Ar+Sc and Be+Be collisions at six beam momenta (13, 19, 30, 40, 75 and 150 GeV/}) will be shown. The kinematic distributions and measured multiplicities of identified hadrons will be compared with NA61/SHINE and NA49 p+p and Pb+Pb results, as well as with available world data
On strangeness in NA61/SHINE
NA61/SHINE is a fixed target experiment at the CERN Super-Proton- Synchrotron. The main goals of the experiment are to discover the critical point of strongly interacting matter and to study the properties of the onset of deconfinement. In order to reach these goals, a study of hadron production properties is performed in nucleus-nucleus, proton-proton and proton-nucleus interactions as a function of collision energy and size of the colliding nuclei. In this paper, I will review recent results on strangeness production in p+p, Be+Be and Ar+Sc collisions in the SPS energy range. Kinematic spectra and mean multiplicities of kaons obtained with various analysis methods will be shown. An overview of strangeness production and its dependence on system size in the vicinity of the phase transition will be presented as well
NA61/SHINE shining more light on the onset of deconfinement
NA61/SHINE has recently completed data acquisition for its original programme on strong interactions. The Collaboration has gathered rich data on collisions of ions in a two-dimensional scan: varying the beam energy and the sizes of colliding nuclei. The most recent analysis of hadron production in Ar+Sc and Be+Be interactions deliver some puzzling results which none of the theoretical models can reproduce
Intravascular lithotripsy for the treatment of stent underexpansion : the multicenter IVL-Dragon Registry
Background: Whereas the efficacy and safety of intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) have been confirmed in de novo calcified coronary lesions, little is known about its utility in treating stent underexpansion. This study aimed to investigate the impact of IVL in treating stent underexpansion. Methods and Results: Consecutive patients with stent underexpansion treated with IVL entered the multicenter IVL-Dragon Registry. The procedural success (primary efficacy endpoint) was defined as a relative stent expansion >80%. Thirty days device-oriented composite endpoint (DOCE) (defined as a composite of cardiac death, target lesion revascularization, or target vessel myocardial infarction) was the secondary endpoint. A total of 62 patients were enrolled. The primary efficacy endpoint was achieved in 72.6% of patients. Both stent underexpansion 58.5% (47.5–69.7) vs. 11.4% (5.8–20.7), p < 0.001, and the stenotic area 82.6% (72.4–90.8) vs. 21.5% (11.1–37.2), p < 0.001, measured by quantitative coronary angiography improved significantly after IVL. Intravascular imaging confirmed increased stent expansion following IVL from 37.5% (16.0–66.0) to 86.0% (69.2–90.7), p < 0.001, by optical coherence tomography and from 57.0% (31.5–77.2) to 89.0% (85.0–92.0), p = 0.002, by intravascular ultrasound. Secondary endpoint occurred in one (1.6%) patient caused by cardiac death. There was no target lesion revascularization or target vessel myocardial infarction during the 30-day follow-up. Conclusions: In this real-life, largest-to-date analysis of IVL use to manage underexpanded stent, IVL proved to be an effective and safe method for facilitating stent expansion and increasing luminal gain
Erratum to: Measurements of Ξ− and Ξ ¯+ production in proton–proton interactions at √sN N = 17.3 GeV in the NA61/SHINE experiment
his Erratum replaces incorrect plots shown in Fig. 7 with the corrected ones. In the publication, the NA57 [1] ratios of Ξ− and Ξ¯¯¯¯+ to the number of wounded nucleons at ⟨NW⟩=349 by mistake were plotted at the wrong values. The ratios were calculated and plotted by mistake using ⟨NW⟩=249.
The correct normalization does not change the conclusions of the paper. The correctly normalized results are presented in Fig. 7
