High-Spatial-Resolution Monitoring of Strong Magnetic Field using Rb vapor Nanometric-Thin Cell
We have implemented the so-called -Zeeman technique (LZT) to
investigate individual hyperfine transitions between Zeeman sublevels of the Rb
atoms in a strong external magnetic field in the range of G
(recently it was established that LZT is very convenient for the range of G). Atoms are confined in a nanometric thin cell (NTC) with the thickness
, where is the resonant wavelength 794 nm for Rb
line. Narrow velocity selective optical pumping (VSOP) resonances in the
transmission spectrum of the NTC are split into several components in a
magnetic field with the frequency positions and transition probabilities
depending on the -field. Possible applications are described, such as
magnetometers with nanometric local spatial resolution and tunable atomic
frequency references.Comment: 12 page

Multiplicities and Correlations at LEP
A brief review on recent charge multiplicity and correlation measurements at
LEP is given. The measurements of unbiased gluon jet multiplicity are
discussed. Recent results on charged particle Bose-Einstein and Fermi-Dirac
correlations at LEP1 are reported. New results on two-particle correlations of
neutral pions are given. Correlations of more than two particles (high-order
correlations) obtained using different methods are performed. Recent
Bose-Einstein correlation measurements at LEP2 are discussed.Comment: 5 pages. Invited talk presented at the Xth International Workshop on
Deep Inelastic Scattering (DIS2002), Cracow, 30 April - 4 May 200
Relating multihadron production in hadronic and nuclear collisions
The energy-dependence of charged particle mean multiplicity and
pseudorapidity density at midrapidity measured in nucleus-nucleus and
(anti)proton-proton collisions are studied in the entire available energy
range. The study is performed using a model, which considers the multiparticle
production process according to the dissipating energy of the participants and
their types, namely a combination of the constituent quark picture together
with Landau relativistic hydrodynamics. The model reveals interrelations
between the variables under study measured in nucleus-nucleus and
nucleon-nucleon collisions. Measurements in nuclear reactions are shown to be
well reproduced by the measurements in (anti)proton-proton interactions common
and the corresponding fits are presented. Different observations in other types
of collisions are discussed in the framework of the proposed model. Predictions
are made for measurements at the forthcoming LHC energies.Comment: Europ. Phys. J. C (to appear). Recently CMS reported
(arXiv:1005.3299) on the midrapidity density value of 5.78 +/- 0.01(stat) +/-
0.23(syst) in pp collisons at 7 TeV, which agrees well with the value of 5.8
of our prediction
Effective-energy budget in multiparticle production in nuclear collisions
The dependencies of charged particle pseudorapidity density and transverse
energy pseudorapidity density at midrapidity on the collision energy and on the
number of nucleon participants, or centrality, measured in nucleus-nucleus
collisions are studied in the energy range spanning a few GeV to a few TeV per
nucleon. The model in which the multiparticle production is driven by the
dissipating effective energy of participants is introduced. The model is based
on the earlier proposed approach, combining the constituent quark picture
together with Landau relativistic hydrodynamics shown to interrelate the
measurements from different types of collisions. Within this model, the
dependence on the number of participants in heavy-ion collisions are found to
be well described in terms of the effective energy defined as a
centrality-dependent fraction of the collision energy. For both variables under
study, the effective energy approach reveals a similarity in the energy
dependence obtained for the most central collisions and centrality data in the
entire available energy range. Predictions are made for the investigated
dependencies for the forthcoming higher energy measurements in heavy-ion
collisions at the LHC.Comment: Regular article, Replaced with published versio
