Proportional drift tubes for large area muon detectors
A proportional drift chamber which consists of eight rectangular drift tubes with cross section of 10 cm x 5 cm, a sense wire of 100 micron phi gold-plated tungsten wire and the length of 6 m, was tested using cosmic ray muons. Spatial resolution (rms) is between 0.5 and 1 mm over drift space of 50 mm, depending on incident angle and distance from sense wire
Distinct doping dependences of the pseudogap and superconducting gap LaSrCuO cuprate superconductors
We have performed a temperature-dependent angle-integrated photoemission
study of lightly-doped to heavily-overdoped LaSrCuO and
oxygen-doped LaCuO. We found that both the magnitude * of
the (small) pseudogap and the temperature \textit{T}* at which the pseudogap is
opened increases with decreasing hole concentration, consistent with previous
studies. On the other hand, the superconducting gap was found to
remain small for decreasing hole concentration. The results can be explained if
the superconducting gap opens only on the Fermi arc around the nodal
(0,0)-() direction while the pseudogap opens around (, 0).Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure

Coherent quasi-particles-to-incoherent hole-carriers crossover in underdoped cuprates
In underdoped cuprates, only a portion of the Fermi surface survives as Fermi
arcs due to pseudogap opening. In hole-doped LaCuO, we have deduced
the "coherence temperature" of quasi-particles on the Fermi arc above
which the broadened leading edge position in angle-integrated photoemission
spectra is shifted away from the Fermi level and the quasi-particle concept
starts to lose its meaning. is found to rapidly increase with hole
doping, an opposite behavior to the pseudogap temperature . The
superconducting dome is thus located below both and , indicating
that the superconductivity emerges out of the coherent Fermionic
quasi-particles on the Fermi arc. remains small in the underdoped
region, indicating that incoherent charge carriers originating from the Fermi
arc are responsible for the apparently metallic transport at high temperatures

Measurement of the cross-section and forward-backward charge asymmetry for the b and c-quark in e+e- annihilation with inclusive muons at sqrt(s) = 58 GeV
We have studied inclusive muon events using all the data collected by the
TOPAZ detector at sqrt(s)=58 GeV with an integrated luminosity of 273pb-1. From
1328 inclusive muon events, we measured the ratio R_qq of the cross section for
qq-bar production to the total hadronic cross section and forward-backward
asymmetry A^q_FB for b and c quarks. The obtained results are R_bb =
0.13+-0.02(stat)+-0.01(syst), R_cc = 0.36+-0.05(stat)+-0.05(syst), A^b_FB =
-0.20+-0.16(stat)+-0.01(syst) and A^c_FB = -0.17+-0.14(stat)+-0.02(syst), in
fair agreement with a prediction of the standard model.Comment: To be published in EPJ C. 24 pages, 12 figure
A Measurement of the Cross Section in Two-Photon Processes
We have measured the inclusive production cross section in a
two-photon collision at the TRISTAN collider. The mean of
the collider was 57.16 GeV and the integrated luminosity was 150 . The
differential cross section () was obtained in the
range between 1.6 and 6.6 GeV and compared with theoretical predictions, such
as those involving direct and resolved photon processes.Comment: 8 pages, Latex format (article), figures corrected, published in

Production in Two-Photon Processes at TRISTAN
We have carried out an inclusive measurement of production
in two-photon processes at TRISTAN. The mean was 58 GeV and the
integrated luminosity was 199 pb. High-statistics samples were
obtained under such conditions as no-, anti-electron, and remnant-jet tags. The
remnant-jet tag, in particular, allowed us, for the first time, to measure the
cross sections separately for the resolved-photon and direct processes.Comment: 20 pages, Latex format, 4 figures and KEK-mark included. Table 1

Measurement of inclusive electron cross section in collisions at TRISTAN
We have studied open charm production in collisions with the
TOPAZ detector at the TRISTAN collider. In this study, charm
quarks were identified by electrons (and positrons) from semi-leptonic decays
of charmed hadrons. The data corresponded to an integrated luminosity of 95.3
pb at a center-of-mass energy of 58 GeV. The results are presented as
the cross sections of inclusive electron production in
collisions with an anti-tag condition, as well as the subprocess cross
sections, which correspond to resolved-photon processes. The latter were
measured by using a sub-sample with remnant jets. A comparison with various
theoretical predictions based on direct and resolved-photon processes showed
that our data prefer that with relatively large gluon contents in a photon at
small , with the next-to-leading order correction, and with a
charm-quark mass of 1.3 GeV.Comment: 26 pages, Latex format (article), 5 figures included, to be published
