Think Inside the Box: Recreating Rutherford's Scattering
Helio Takai
The Rutherford scattering experiment, conceived by Ernest Rutherford and carried out by Hans Geiger and Ernest Marsden, provided the first direct evidence of a compact atomic nucle…
Measuring Sound, One Ping at a Time
Helio Takai, Tom Tomaszewski, Jeremy Tomaszewski +1
Understanding how sound propagates through different media is fundamental to both science and technology. While sound plays a critical role in natural navigation and underlies a wi…
Tidal Frequencies in the Time Series Measurements of Atmospheric Muon Flux from Cosmic Rays
H. Takai, C. Feldman, M. Minelli +14
Tidal frequencies are detected in time series muon flux measurements performed over a period of eight years. Meson production and subsequent decay produce the muons that are observ…
First Upper Limits on the Radar Cross Section of Cosmic-Ray Induced Extensive Air Showers
R. U. Abbasi, M. Abe, M. Abou Bakr Othman +135
TARA (Telescope Array Radar) is a cosmic ray radar detection experiment colocated with Telescope Array, the conventional surface scintillation detector (SD) and fluorescence telesc…
Telescope Array Radar (TARA) Observatory for Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays
R. Abbasi, M. Abou Bakr Othman, C. Allen +19
Construction was completed during summer 2013 on the Telescope Array RAdar (TARA) bi-static radar observatory for Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECR). TARA is co-located with the…
Position resolution and particle identification with the ATLAS EM calorimeter
Roberto Sacco
In the years between 2000 and 2002 several pre-series and series modules of the ATLAS EM barrel and end-cap calorimeter were exposed to electron, photon and pion beams. The perform…
Hadron Energy Reconstruction for the ATLAS Calorimetry in the Framework of the Non-parametrical Method
ATLAS Collaboration
This paper discusses hadron energy reconstruction for the ATLAS barrel prototype combined calorimeter (consisting of a lead-liquid argon electromagnetic part and an iron-scintillat…
Light Fragment Yields from Central Au + Au Collisions at 11.5 A GeV/c
The E877 Collaboration, J. Barrette
Inclusive double differential multiplicities of deuterons, ^3H, ^3He, and ^4He measured by E877 for 11.5 A GeV/c Au+Au collisions at the AGS are presented. Light fragments at beam-…
Two-Proton Correlations from 14.6A GeV/c Si+Pb and 11.5A GeV/c Au+Au Central Collisions
E877 Collaboration, J. Barrette
Two-proton correlation functions have been measured in Si+Pb collisions at 14.6A GeV/c and Au+Au collisions at 11.5A GeV/c by the E814/E877 collaboration. Data are compared with pr…
Measurement of Pion Enhancement at Low Transverse Momentum and of the Delta-Resonance Abundance in Si-Nucleus Collisions at AGS Energy
J. Barrette
We present measurements of the pion transverse momentum (p_t) spectra in central Si-nucleus collisions in the rapidity range 2.0<y<5.0 for p_t down to and including p_t=0. The data…
Observation of Anisotropic Event Shapes and Transverse Flow in Au+Au Collisions at AGS Energy
J. Barrette
Event shapes for Au + Au collisions at 11.4 GeV/c per nucleon were studied over nearly the full solid angle with the E877 apparatus. The analysis was performed by Fourier expansion…
