Characterization of GEM Detectors for Application in the CMS Muon Detection System
D. Abbaneo, S. Bally, H. Postema +26
The muon detection system of the Compact Muon Solenoid experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider is based on different technologies for muon tracking and triggering. In particul…
Construction of the first full-size GEM-based prototype for the CMS high- muon system
D. Abbaneo, S. Bally, H. Postema +32
In view of a possible extension of the forward CMS muon detector system and future LHC luminosity upgrades, Micro-Pattern Gas Detectors (MPGDs) are an appealing technology. They ca…
A light scalar WIMP through the Higgs portal?
Michel H. G. Tytgat
In these proceedings, I report on the status of a simple singlet scalar dark matter model in the light of recent results from both direct detection experiments, in particular DAMA,…
Measurement of azimuthal asymmetries associated with deeply virtual Compton scattering on a longitudinally polarized deuterium target
The HERMES Collaboration, A. Airapetian, N. Akopov +144
Azimuthal asymmetries in exclusive electroproduction of a real photon from a longitudinally polarized deuterium target are measured with respect to target polarization alone and wi…
Constraints on Light WIMP candidates from the Isotropic Diffuse Gamma-Ray Emission
Chiara Arina, Michel H. G. Tytgat
Motivated by the measurements reported by direct detection experiments, most notably DAMA, CDMS-II, CoGeNT and Xenon10/100, we study further the constraints that might be set on so…
Effects of transversity in deep-inelastic scattering by polarized protons
HERMES collaboration, A. Airapetian, N. Akopov +142
Single-spin asymmetries for pions and charged kaons are measured in semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering of positrons and electrons off a transversely nuclear-polarized hydroge…
New Physics at the LHC. A Les Houches Report: Physics at TeV Colliders 2009 - New Physics Working Group
G. Brooijmans, C. Grojean, G. D. Kribs +57
We present a collection of signatures for physics beyond the standard model that need to be explored at the LHC. First, are presented various tools developed to measure new particl…
Exclusive Leptoproduction of Real Photons on a Longitudinally Polarised Hydrogen Target
The HERMES Collaboration, A. Airapetian, N. Akopov +147
Polarisation asymmetries are measured for the hard exclusive leptoproduction of real photons from a longitudinally polarised hydrogen target. These asymmetries arise from the deepl…
A light scalar WIMP through the Higgs portal and CoGeNT
Sarah Andreas, Chiara Arina, Thomas Hambye +2
If dark matter (DM) simply consists in a scalar particle interacting dominantly with the Higgs boson, the ratio of its annihilation cross section ---which is relevant both for the…
Leading-Order Determination of the Gluon Polarization from high- Hadron Electroproduction
The HERMES Collaboration, A. Airapetian
Longitudinal double-spin asymmetries of charged hadrons with high transverse momentum have been measured in electroproduction using the \hermes\ detector at \hera. Processes…
