During the years 1994–97, the emulsion target of the CHORUS detector was exposed to the wide-band neutrino beam of the CERN SPS of 27 GeV average neutrino energy. In total about 100, 000 charged-current neutrino interactions with at least one identified muon were located in the nuclear emulsion target and fully reconstructed, using newly developed automatic scanning systems. Charmed particles w...

We propose a new procedure of partial cyclic reduction, where we apply a 2d -color ordering (with d=2, 3 the dimension of the problem), and use different operators for different gridpoints according to their color. These operators are chosen so that the gridpoints can be readily decoupled, and we then eliminate all colors but one. This yields a smaller cartesian mesh and box-shaped 9-point (in ...

We present the results of our calculation which has been performed to study the nuclear effects in the quasielastic, inelastic and deep inelastic scattering of neutrinos(antineutrinos) from nuclear targets. These calculations are done in the local density approximation. We take into account the effect of Pauli blocking, Fermi motion, Coulomb effect, renormalization of weak transition strengths ...

We summarize the status of next-to-leading order perturbative quantum chromodynamics (pQCD) calculations of the cross sections for the production of squarks, gluinos, neutralinos, charginos, and sleptons as a function of the produced sparticle masses in proton-antiproton collisions at the hadronic center-of-mass energy 2 TeV. I. PERTURBATIVE QCD RESULTS The possibility of supersymmetry (SUSY) a...

We discuss present predictions for the total γγ and γp cross-sections, highlighting why predictions differ. We present results from the Eikonal Minijet Model and improved predictions based on soft gluon resummation.

The top quark is the latest quark of the Standard Model (SM) that was discovered, discovery that was made in 1995 by the CDF and D0 collaborations [1]. It is the “youngest” quark of the SM and many of its properties remain to be studied in detail. Since it is also the heaviest elementary particle known so far, its status in the SM is special. Indeed, the top quark is 40 times heavier than its w...

The compressive behavior of tapered piles, particularly those with circular cross-sections, has been investigated during the last few decades. However, tensile such piles rarely studied in literature. In this paper, 12 static axial tests, comprising six and were performed on instrumented uniform cross-sections using a geotechnical centrifuge. Three had correspondingly circular, square, X-shaped...

Objectives: A comparison study between ceramic full coverage FPDs & 3 designs of ceramic inlay retained FPDs regarding vertical marginal gap & retention. Materials & Methods: Twenty samples were constructed and divided into 4 groups according to the type of restorations: full coverage, inlay-shaped (occluso-proximal inlay + proximal box), tub-shaped (occluso-proximal inlay), and proximal box-sh...

We provide a compendium of the quantum mechanical equations for photon emission rates, absorption cross sections, and scattering sections. For each case, different that apply discrete or continuous electron states emitting, absorbing, material are given.
