The relation between gas density and velocity power spectra in galaxy clusters: qualitative treatment and cosmological simulations
I. Zhuravleva, E. Churazov, A. A. Schekochihin +6
We address the problem of evaluating the power spectrum of the velocity field of the ICM using only information on the plasma density fluctuations, which can be measured today by C…
Constraining nova observables: direct measurements of resonance strengths in 33S(p,γ)34Cl
J. Fallis, A. Parikh, P. F. Bertone +32
The 33S(p,γ)34Cl reaction is important for constraining predictions of certain isotopic abundances in oxygen-neon novae. Models currently predict as much as 150 times the solar ab…
Construction and testing of sMDT tubes at the University of Michigan for the ATLAS Muon Spectrometer upgrade
C. Wei, A. Chen, D. Amidei +19
This paper reports on the design and construction of infrastructure and test stations for small-diameter monitored drift tube (sMDT) assembly and testing at the University of Michi…
Measurement of Charged Pion Production Yields off the NuMI Target
J. M. Paley, M. D. Messier, R. Raja +53
The fixed-target MIPP experiment, Fermilab E907, was designed to measure the production of hadrons from the collisions of hadrons of momenta ranging from 5 to 120 GeV/c on a variet…
Suppressing Background Radiation Using Poisson Principal Component Analysis
P. Tandon, P. Huggins, A. Dubrawski +2
Performance of nuclear threat detection systems based on gamma-ray spectrometry often strongly depends on the ability to identify the part of measured signal that can be attributed…
Charged Kaon Mass Measurement using the Cherenkov Effect
The MIPP Collaboration, N. Graf, A. Lebedev +60
The two most recent and precise measurements of the charged kaon mass use X-rays from kaonic atoms and report uncertainties of 14 ppm and 22 ppm yet differ from each other by 122 p…
A High-Precision, Fast, Robust, and Cost-Effective Muon Detector Concept for the FCC-ee
F. Anulli, H. Beauchemin, C. Bini +37
We propose a high-precision, fast, robust and cost-effective muon detector concept for an FCC-ee experiment. This design combines precision drift tubes with fast plastic scintillat…
Evaluation of Coded Aperture Radiation Detectors using a Bayesian Approach
K. Miller, P. Huggins, A. Dubrawski +2
We investigate the utility of coded aperture (CA) for roadside radiation threat detection applications. With coded aperture, information in the form of photon quantity is traded fo…
Construction of Precision sMDT Detector for ATLAS Muon Spectrometer Upgrade
D. Amidei, N. Anderson, A. Chen +20
This paper describes the small-diameter monitored drift-tube detector construction at the University of Michigan as a contribution to the ATLAS Muon Spectrometer upgrade for the hi…
Electromagnetic and Hadron Calorimeters in the MIPP Experiment
T. S. Nigmanov, H. R. Gustafson, M. J. Longo +15
The purpose of the MIPP experiment is to study the inclusive production of photons, pions, kaons and nucleons in pi, K and p interactions on various targets using beams from the Ma…
