A Storage Ring Experiment to Detect a Proton Electric Dipole Moment
V. Anastassopoulos, S. Andrianov, R. Baartman +88
A new experiment is described to detect a permanent electric dipole moment of the proton with a sensitivity of cm by using polarized "magic" momentum ~GeV/c pr…
Skewness, kurtosis and the 5th and 6th order cumulants of net baryon-number distributions from lattice QCD confront high-statistics STAR data
A. Bazavov, D. Bollweg, H. -T. Ding +12
We present new results on up to order cumulants of net baryon-number fluctuations at small values of the baryon chemical potential, , obtained in lattice QCD calcula…
Search for T Violation in KMU3 Decay
M. V. Diwan, J. Frank, A. Gordeev +17
We propose a new experiment at the AGS to search for the T-violating polarization of the muon normal to the decay plane of the K+ to mu+ pi0 nu decay. Motivated by the need for a s…
Static Potential At Non-zero Temperatures From Fine Lattices
D. Hoying, A. Bazavov, D. Bala +7
We report on a preliminary study of static quark anti-quark potential at non-zero temperature in flavor QCD using lattices with lattice spacing fm,…
Chiral crossover in QCD at zero and non-zero chemical potentials
A. Bazavov, H. -T. Ding, P. Hegde +14
We present results for pseudo-critical temperatures of QCD chiral crossovers at zero and non-zero values of baryon (), strangeness (), electric charge (), and isospin (…
Electrooptical Detection of Charged Particles
Y. K. Semertzidis, V. Castillo, L. Kowalski +8
We have made the first observation of a charged particle beam by means of its electro-optical effect on the polarization of laser light in a LiNbO3 crystal. The modulation of the l…
Photometric and Spectroscopic Properties of Type Ia Supernova 2018oh with Early Excess Emission from the 2 Observations
W. Li, X. Wang, J. Vinkó +160
Supernova (SN) 2018oh (ASASSN-18bt) is the first spectroscopically-confirmed type Ia supernova (SN Ia) observed in the field. The data revealed an excess emission…
A Single Shot, Sub-picosecond Beam Bunch Characterization with Electro-optic Techniques
Y. K. Semertzidis, R. Burns, V. Castillo +8
In the past decade, the bunch lengths of electrons in accelerators have decreased dramatically to the range of a few picoseconds \cite{Uesaka94,Trotz97}. Measurement of the length…
The Near-Sun Dust Environment: Initial Observations from Parker Solar Probe
J. R. Szalay, P. Pokorný, S. D. Bale +11
The Parker Solar Probe (PSP) spacecraft has flown into the most dense and previously unexplored region of our solar system's zodiacal cloud. While PSP does not have a dedicated dus…
Seeing Double: ASASSN-18bt Exhibits a Two-Component Rise in the Early-Time K2 Light Curve
B. J. Shappee, T. W. -s. Holoien, M. R. Drout +109
On 2018 Feb. 4.41, the All-Sky Automated Survey for SuperNovae (ASAS-SN) discovered ASASSN-18bt in the K2 Campaign 16 field. With a redshift of z=0.01098 and a peak apparent magnit…
First Electrooptical Detection of Charged Particles
D. M. Lazarus, V. Castillo, L. Kowalski +8
We have made the first observation of a charged particle beam by means of its electro-optical effect on the polarization of laser light in a birefringent crystal. The modulation of…
Sensitive Search for a Permanent Muon Electric Dipole Moment

We are proposing a new method to carry out a dedicated search for a permanent electric dipole moment (EDM) of the muon with a sensitivity at a level of 10^{-24} e cm. The experimen…
In-medium bottomonium properties from lattice NRQCD calculations with extended meson operators
H. -T. Ding, W. -P. Huang, R. Larsen +4
We calculate the temperature dependence of bottomonium correlators in (2+1)-flavor lattice QCD with the aim to constrain in-medium properties of bottomonia at high temperature. The…
