A Very Forward Proton Spectrometer for H1
A new, very forward, proton spectrometer with large acceptance will be
installed in the proton beam line of the H1 experiment in 2003. The
spectrometer, located 220 m downstream of the interaction point, is based on
the Roman Pot technique and consists of two stations in the cold section of the
proton beam line. A brief description of this new device and expected physics
results are presented.Comment: 15 pages, 8 figures, talk given at LISHEP 2002, Session C: Workshop

Boyhood, initiation, homosexual behaviour and homosexuality in European Palaeolithic and Mesolithic
In this article, boyhood in European Pleistocene is decribed. After the introduction, it describes the terms "child" and "boy". In the section about the first people in Europe I have included the first people in Greece and Italy as well because most people think by these countries only to the welknown classical period. Then the existence and live from children e.g. boys will be described which is following by thze adventures from children e.g. adolescent boys in the caves. Here we come to the erotic art, made by the adolescent boys and the possible homosexual behaviour of these boys. Then we coming to cannibalism in relation to initiation-rites and at the end to the subject of inition itself and the question of there was homosexuality
Dirac-Maxwell correspondence: Spin-1 bosonic topological insulator for light
Fundamental differences between fermions and bosons are revealed in their
spin and distribution statistics as well as the discrete symmetries they obey
(charge, parity and time). While significant progress has been made on
fermionic topological phases of matter with time-reversal symmetry, the bosonic
counterpart still remains elusive. We present here a spin-1 bosonic topological
insulator for light by utilizing a Dirac-Maxwell correspondence. Departing from
structural photonic approaches which mimic the pseudo-spin-\textonehalf{}
behavior of electrons, we exploit the integer spin and discrete symmetries of
the photon to formulate a distinct bosonic topological phase of matter. We
introduce a bosonic Kramers theorem and the photonic equivalent of topological
quantization, which arises solely from photon spin. Our continuum field theory
predicts that photons acquire a mass in the presence of a spatio-temporally
dispersive degenerate chirality, a unique form of magneto-electric coupling
inside matter fundamentally different from well-known chirality,
magneto-electricity, gyrotropy or bi-anisotropy. We predict that this unique
dispersive (non-local) degenerate chiral medium has anomalous parity and
time-reversal symmetries and if found in nature will exhibit a gapped Quantum
spin-1 Hall bosonic phase. Photons do not possess a conductivity transport
parameter which can be quantized (unlike electronic systems), but we predict
that photon spin quantization of symmetry-protected edge states is amenable to
experimental isolation leading to a new bosonic phase of matter.Comment: 13 pages, 4 figure
