Development and Tests of PWM Amplifier for Driving the Piezoelectric Elements
The paper describes the design and research work carried out to prepare the prototype of pulse amplifier. The work was aimed to describe main operational parameters of PWM amplifiers enabling using them to control the piezoelectric actuators used for active compensation of Lorentz force detuning of superconducting cavities

Origin of the low-mass electron pair excess in light nucleus-nucleus collisions
We report measurements of electron pair production in elementary p+p and d+p
reactions at 1.25 GeV/u with the HADES spectrometer. For the first time, the
electron pairs were reconstructed for n+p reactions by detecting the proton
spectator from the deuteron breakup. We find that the yield of electron pairs
with invariant mass Me+e- > 0.15 GeV/c2 is about an order of magnitude larger
in n+p reactions as compared to p+p. A comparison to model calculations
demonstrates that the production mechanism is not sufficiently described yet.
The electron pair spectra measured in C+C reactions are compatible with a
superposition of elementary n+p and p+p collisions, leaving little room for
additional electron pair sources in such light collision systems.Comment: 11 pages, 2 figures, \usepackage{epsfig
Partial Wave Analysis of the Reaction to Search for the "" Bound State
Employing the Bonn-Gatchina partial wave analysis framework (PWA), we have
analyzed HADES data of the reaction . This
reaction might contain information about the kaonic cluster "" via its
decay into . Due to interference effects in our coherent description
of the data, a hypothetical (or, specifically "")
cluster signal must not necessarily show up as a pronounced feature (e.g. a
peak) in an invariant mass spectra like . Our PWA analysis includes a
variety of resonant and non-resonant intermediate states and delivers a good
description of our data (various angular distributions and two-hadron invariant
mass spectra) without a contribution of a cluster. At a
confidence level of CL=95\% such a cluster can not contribute more than
2-12\% to the total cross section with a final state, which
translates into a production cross-section between 0.7 and 4.2 ,
respectively. The range of the upper limit depends on the assumed cluster mass,
width and production process.Comment: 7 Pages, 5 Figure
The interaction studied via femtoscopy in p + Nb reactions at
We report on the first measurement of and correlations via
the femtoscopy method in p+Nb reactions at , studied with the High Acceptance Di-Electron Spectrometer
(HADES). By comparing the experimental correlation function to model
calculations, a source size for pairs of and a slightly
smaller value for of is extracted.
Using the geometrical extent of the particle emitting region, determined
experimentally with correlations as reference together with a source
function from a transport model, it is possible to study different sets of
scattering parameters. The correlation is proven sensitive to
predicted scattering length values from chiral effective field theory. We
demonstrate that the femtoscopy technique can be used as valid alternative to
the analysis of scattering data to study the hyperon-nucleon interaction.Comment: 12 pages, 11 figure
Inclusive pion and eta production in p+Nb collisions at 3.5 GeV beam energy
Data on inclusive pion and eta production measured with the dielectron
spectrometer HADES in the reaction p+93Nb at a kinetic beam energy of 3.5 GeV
are presented. Our results, obtained with the photon conversion method,
supplement the rather sparse information on neutral meson production in
proton-nucleus reactions existing for this bombarding energy regime. The
reconstructed e+e-e+e- transverse-momentum and rapidity distributions are
confronted with transport model calculations, which account fairly well for
both pi0 and eta production.Comment: 12 pages, 9 figures, submitted to Physical Review
Production of Sigma{\pm}pi?pK+ in p+p reactions at 3.5 GeV beam energy
We study the production of Sigma^+-pi^+-pK^+ particle quartets in p+p
reactions at 3.5 GeV kinetic beam energy. The data were taken with the HADES
experiment at GSI. This report evaluates the contribution of resonances like
Lambda(1405$, Sigma(1385)^0, Lambda(1520), Delta(1232), N^* and K^*0 to the
Sigma^+- pi^-+ p K+ final state. The resulting simulation model is compared to
the experimental data in several angular distributions and it shows itself as
suitable to evaluate the acceptance corrections properly.Comment: 15 pages, 5 figure
