Book Description
This book presents the developments in accelerator physics and technology implemented at the Tevatron proton-antiproton collider, the world’s most powerful accelerator for almost twenty years prior to the completion of the Large Hadron Collider. The book covers the history of collider operation and upgrades, novel arrangements of beam optics and methods of orbit control, antiproton production and cooling, beam instabilities and feedback systems, halo collimation, and advanced beam instrumentation. The topics discussed show the complexity and breadth of the issues associated with modern hadron accelerators, while providing a systematic approach needed in the design and construction of next generation colliders. This book is a valuable resource for researchers in high energy physics and can serve as an introduction for students studying the beam physics of colliders.

Perspectives Of Strong Coupling Gauge Theories: Proceedings Of The 1996 International Workshop
Author: Koichi Yamawaki
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9814545910
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 424
Book Description
This is the proceedings of the third Nagoya workshop on Strong Coupling Gauge Theories (SCGT), after SCGT 88 and SCGT 90. As a tradition of the Nagoya SCGT workshops, the focus is on dynamical symmetry breaking with particular emphasis on the nontrivial fixed points and/or large anomalous dimension, which was actually the basis of walking technicolor, strong ETC technicolor and top quark condensate, etc. Special attention is also paid to the fixed point structure in supersymmetric gauge theories, which has recently been highlighted through duality arguments.

Forward Physics and Luminosity Determination at LHC
Author: Katri Huitu
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9812810919
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
Recently there has been much interest in studying events with tagged forward protons at the existing and forthcoming hadronic colliders, the Tevatron and the LHC. These studies not only allow one to monitor the luminosity of the colliding protons with high accuracy but also provide new ways of investigating the subtle issues of QCD dynamics and searches for the manifestations of new physics. This book reviews the state of the art of forward physics measurements and the theoretical development. It will catalyze many new approaches within the framework of the extensive physics programme of the LHC. This in turn will stimulate closer contact between the LHC experiments as well as between the experimentalists and the theorists to maximize the potenntial of LHC physics. Contents: Diffraction of Hadrons at High Energies (A B Kaidalov); Pomeron Before and After QCD (L N Lipatov); Diffraction at HERA (P Marage); Requirements from Precision Physics at LHC on the Luminosity Accuracy (S Tapprogge); LHC Machine Instrumentation for Luminosity Measurements (L Vos & S Weisz); Evolution of Forward Multi-Particle Spectrometers at Storage Rings (P Schlein); New Silicon Detector Technologies for Forward Physics (E H M Heijne); Luminosity Monitoring at LHCb (M Ferro-Luzzi); and other papers. Readership: Academics, researchers and graduate students in high-energy, accelerator, experimental and theoretical physics.

Gribov Memorial Volume: Quarks, Hadrons And Strong Interactions - Proceedings Of The Memorial Workshop Devoted To The 75th Birthday Of V N Gribov
Author: Yuri L Dokshitzer
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9814478148
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 570
Book Description
Vladimir Naumovich Gribov was one of the most outstanding theorists, a key figure in the creation of the modern elementary particle physics. His many discoveries are famous and well accepted by the physics community (Gribov-Regge theory of high energy hadron interactions, Gribov vacuum pole — Pomeron, Reggeon field theory, parton evolution equations, neutrino oscillations, Gribov copies in non-Abelian gauge field theories, etc.); Some of his ideas look unacceptable and strange at the first glance. Even at the second glance.Nowadays, under the weight of new theoretical developments and experimental results, his ideas are receiving the recognition they deserve. The Gribov Memorial Workshop, organized on his 75th birthday in Budapest, Hungary in 2005, clearly demonstrated the wealth and fertilization force of his ideas. Close colleagues, younger followers, world experts of the quark-hadron world have gathered together to display new angles of the Gribov heritage. And to remember the personality of a great man.This book collects the talks presented at, and contributed to, the Gribov-75 Memorial Workshop.

Spin Correlations in tt Events from pp Collisions
Author: Boris Lemmer
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319189328
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 246
Book Description
This thesis introduces readers to the Standard Model, the top quark and its properties, before explaining the concept of spin correlation measurement. The first measurement of top quark spin correlations at the LHC in the lepton+jets decay channel is presented. As the heaviest elementary particle, the top quark plays an essential role in the Standard Model of elementary particle physics. In the case of top quarks being produced in pairs at hadron colliders, the Standard Model predicts their spins to be correlated. The degree of correlation depends on both the production mechanism and properties of the top quark. Any deviation from the Standard Model prediction can be an indicator for new physics phenomena. The thesis employs an advanced top quark reconstruction algorithm including dedicated identification of the up- and down-type quarks from the W boson decay.
