Energy Independence of the Collins Asymmetry in Collisions
STAR Collaboration, B. E. Aboona, J. Adam +367
The STAR experiment reports new, high-precision measurements of the transverse single-spin asymmetries for within jets, namely the Collins asymmetries, from transversely…
Exploring the keV-scale physics potential of CUORE
CUORE Collaboration, D. Q. Adams, C. Alduino +120
We present the analysis techniques developed to explore the keV-scale energy region of the CUORE experiment, based on more than 2 tonne yr of data collected over 5 years. By priori…
Performance of a SiPM-based, plastic scintillator muon veto prototype for CUPID
Maya Moore, Samantha Pagan, Emily G. Pottebaum +8
CUPID will be a next-generation experiment searching for neutrinoless double beta decay in the inverted mass ordering regime. The reduction of backgrounds in the region of interest…
What is the Funniest Number? An investigation of numerical humor
E. G. Pottebaum
In a preliminary study of numerical humor, we propose the Perceived Specificity Hypothesis (PSH). The PSH states that, for nonnegative integers < 100, the funniness of a number inc…
Sensitivity of the CUPID experiment to decay of Mo
K. Alfonso, A. Armatol, C. Augier +189
CUPID is a next-generation bolometric experiment to search for neutrinoless double-beta decay () of Mo using LiMoO scintillating crystals. It will operate 159…
Onset of Constituent Quark Number Scaling in Heavy-Ion Collisions at RHIC
STAR Collaboration, B. E. Aboona, J. Adam +355
Partonic collectivity is one of the necessary signatures for the formation of quark-gluon plasma in high-energy nuclear collisions. Number of constituent quarks (NCQ) scaling has b…
