Characteristics of fast timing MCP-PMTs in magnetic fields

Mohammad Hattawy, Junqi Xie, Mickey Chiu +7

The motivation of this paper is to explore the parameters that affect the performance of Microchannel Plate Photomultiplier Tubes (MCP-PMTs) in magnetic fields with the goal to gui…

Photons from thermalizing matter in heavy ion collisions

Vladimir Khachatryan, Bjoern Schenke, Mickey Chiu +3

We investigate the production of direct photons in heavy ion collisions within the modified bottom-up thermalization scenario, which we show to be related to the thermalizing Glasm…
