Compton Cherenkov Detector Development for ILC Polarimetry

In order to fully exploit the physics potential of the ILC, it will be necessary to measure (and control) beam parameters to a permille level precision. In case of the beam polarisation, this can only be achieved with dedicated high energy Compton polarimeters and by improving the detector linearity, as well as the calibration of the analyzing power. This note summarises results of an early tes...

Inverse Compton Scattering – Revisited

An important radiative process, used in several astrophysical contexts to generate high energy photons, is the inverse compton scattering. In this process, relativistic electrons transfer part of their kinetic energy to low energy photons thereby creating high energy photons. Conventional text book derivation (Rybicki & Lightman 1979) of this process uses the photon picture, kinematics of elect...

Preliminary Results from Integrating Compton Photon Polarimetry in Hall A of Jefferson Lab

A wide range of nucleon and nuclear structure experiments in Jefferson Lab’s Hall A require precise, continuous measurements of the polarization of the electron beam. In our Compton polarimeter, electrons are scattered off photons in a Fabry-Perot cavity; by measuring an asymmetry in the integrated signal of the scattered photons detected in a GSO crystal, we can make non-invasive, continuous m...

QUICKSELECT Revisited

We give an overview of the running time analysis of the random divide-and-conquer algorithm FIND or QUICKSELECT. The results concern moments, distribution of FIND’s running time, the limiting distribution, a stochastic bound and the key: a stochastic fixed point equation.

X-ray absorption in Compton–thin AGN: the predictions of a model revisited

Context. The evidence of a decrease with increasing luminosity in the fraction fabs of absorbed and Compton-thin among X-rayselected (2-10 keV) AGN is observationally well supported, while that of an increase in fabs with redshift is fairly controversial. In Lamastra, Perola & Matt (2006), the gravitational effect of the SMBH on the molecular interstellar gas, in the central region of the host ...
