    What If Radiation Is Actually GOOD for You?

    by Ed Hiserodt ...
    There is a very large disconnect between the actual dangers of exposure to low doses of ionizing radiation and the fears of such exposure. A tiny leak at a nuclear power plant is front page news, while there has never been a death or even an injury to the public from escaping radiation. Meanwhile 50,000 deaths from auto accidents go almost unnoticed. This fear is particularly ironic since hundreds ... Read more

  • Search for Charginos Nearly Mass-Degenerate with the Lightest Neutralino

    Based on a Disappearing-Track Signature in pp Collisions at √s = 8 TeV

    by Shingo Kazama ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    In this book, the anomaly mediated supersymmetry breaking (AMSB) model is explored by searching for charged winos with their subsequent decays collected with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).The author develops a new method, called “re-tracking,” to detect charged winos that decay before reaching the Semiconductor Tracker (SCT) detector. Because the nominal tracking algorithm ... Read more

  • Electromagnetic Radiation of Electrons in Periodic Structures

    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Periodic magnetic structures (undulators) are widely used in accelerators to generate monochromatic undulator radiation (UR) in the range from far infrared to the hard X-ray region. Another periodic crystalline structure is used to produce quasimonochromatic polarized photon beams via the coherent bremsstrahlung mechanism (CBS). Due to such characteristics as monochromaticity, polarization and ... Read more
