Triple GEM Detectors for the Forward Tracker in STAR
Frank Simon, James Kelsey, Michael Kohl +7
Future measurements of the flavor-separated spin structure of the proton via parity-violating W boson production at RHIC require an upgrade of the forward tracking system of the ST…
Beam Performance of Tracking Detectors with Industrially Produced GEM Foils
Frank Simon, James Kelsey, Michael Kohl +7
Three Gas-Electron-Multiplier tracking detectors with an active area of 10 cm x 10 cm and a two-dimensional, laser-etched orthogonal strip readout have been tested extensively in p…
A Beamdump Facility at Jefferson Lab
Patrick Achenbach, Andrei Afanasev, Pawel Ambrozewicz +47
This White Paper is exploring the potential of intense secondary muon, neutrino, and (hypothetical) light dark matter beams produced in interactions of high-intensity electron beam…
Timing Detectors with SiPM read-out for the MUSE Experiment at PSI
Tigran Rostomyan, Ethan Cline, Ievgen Lavrukhin +40
The Muon Scattering Experiment at the Paul Scherrer Institut uses a mixed beam of electrons, muons, and pions, necessitating precise timing to identify the beam particles and react…
Development of GEM Detectors at Hampton University
Anusha Liyanage, Michael Kohl, Jesmin Nazeer +1
Two GEM telescopes, each consisting of three 10x10 cm triple-GEM chambers were built, tested and operated by the Hampton University group. The GEMs are read out with APV25 fron…
Neutral pion threshold production at Q^2=0.05 GeV^2/c^2 and Chiral Perturbation Theory
Harald Merkel, Peter Bartsch, Dagmar Baumann +31
New data are presented on the p(e,e'p)Ï^0 reaction at threshold at a four-momentum transfer of Q^2=0.05 GeV^2/c^2. The data were taken with the three-spectrometer setup of the A1…
Coherent Ï^0 threshold production from the deuteron at Q^2 = 0.1 GeV^2/c^2
Ingo Ewald, Peter Bartsch, Dagmar Baumann +29
First data on coherent threshold Ï^0 electroproduction from the deuteron taken by the A1 Collaboration at the Mainz Microtron MAMI are presented. At a four-momentum transfer of q^…
Nucleon charge radius measurement with low-energy electron scattering
Clement Legris, Rika Danjo, Taiga Goke +16
The charge radius is one of the most basic characteristics of the nucleons. The proton charge radius is especially of great importance for many applications such as the structure s…
New Measurements of the Deuteron to Proton F2 Structure Function Ratio
Debaditya Biswas, Fernando Araiza Gonzalez, William Henry +89
Nucleon structure functions, as measured in lepton-nucleon scattering, have historically provided a critical observable in the study of partonic dynamics within the nucleon. Howeve…
Radiative Corrections: From Medium to High Energy Experiments
Andrei Afanasev, Jan C. Bernauer, Peter Blunden +16
Radiative corrections are crucial for modern high-precision physics experiments, and are an area of active research in the experimental and theoretical community. Here we provide a…
