چکیده
During 1999 the CERES experiment upgraded by the new TPC was taking data from semi-central Pb+Au collisions at 40 AGeV. The analysis of the di-electron spectra shows an enhancement in the low mass region of at least the same magnitude as previously observed at full SPS energy. The results are compared to model calculations with and without medium modifications of the vector mesons. The addition of the radial TPC gives more possibilities to study hadronic observables. The results obtained for the midrapidity Λ yield and the Λ/Λ ratio are compared to the existing systematics.

متن کاملCeres : Evolution and Present State
Introduction: We consider Ceres as a prototype for planetary evolution [1]. From thermal modeling by McCord and Sotin [2, 3, 4], Ceres was inferred to have differentiated into a rocky core of hydrated silicates, and an icy outer shell. Thomas et al. [5] confirmed such a model from direct observation of Ceres’s shape from Hubble Space Telescope observations, and pervious occultation measurements...
متن کاملNew Ceres Data Examined for Evidence of Tropical Iris Feedback
New data products from the Clouds and the Earth’s Radiant Energy System (CERES; Wielicki et al., 1996) instrument were recently released. The Single Scanner Footprint (SSF) data product combines radiation budget data from CERES with cloud property retrievals from an imager on the same platform to provide a vastly improved characterization of the state of the atmosphere. In addition, the SSF inc...
متن کاملDevelopment of empirical angular distribution models for smoke aerosols: Methods
[1] Using broadband shortwave radiance measurements from the Clouds and Earth Radiant Energy System (CERES) sensors onboard the Terra and Aqua satellites, empirical angular distribution models (EADM) are constructed for smoke aerosols. These EADMs are constructed for smoke aerosols emitted during the biomass burning season (August‐October), in South America. All available years (2000–2008) of b...
متن کاملNew results from CERES 2 beam UV detector
During the year 2000 the CERES experiment, upgraded with a radial drift TPC, took a large data sample of Pb on Au collisions at 158 AGeV triggered on the 8% most central collisions. A very detailed calibration of the radial drift TPC was since completed. Preliminary results on e + e − pairs and φ mesons reconstructed in the K + K − channel are presented.
