Preview of the Lab's Seminar by Akitaka Ariga 21.08.2019 г. "Experiment DsTau: study of tau neutrino production with 400 GeV protons from the CERN-SPS"

In the DsTau experiment at the CERN SPS, an independent and direct way to measure tau neutrino production following high energy proton interactions was proposed. Tau neutrino might be a key to understand interactions between heavy flavor leptons and quarks, however, it has hardly been studied among the standard models particles. The experimental measurements has been suffered by large uncertainty in its production. As the main source of tau neutrinos is a decay of Ds mesons, produced in proton-nucleus interactions, the project aims at measuring a differential cross section of this reaction. The experimental method is based on a use of high resolution emulsion detectors for effective registration of events with short lived particle decays. Recently, the project was approved by CERN SPSC.

Preview of the seminar by Yuri Kulchitsky "Two-particle Bose-Einstein correlations in pp collisions at √s=13 TeV measured with the ATLAS detector"

  The results of studies using the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider of Bose-Einstein Correlations (BEC) in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV for pairs of like-charged particles each with |η| < 2.5, as measured for two kinematic ranges: the first with a minimum particle pT > 100 MeV and the second with a minimum particle pT > 500 MeV will be presented.

Визит съемочной группы английской компании WebsEdge

 Вчера, 12.02.2019 г., к нам приезжала съемочная группа английской компании WebsEdge (http://www.websedge.com) для создания видео-ролика про нашу лабораторию. Тема ролика - нейтринная программа ЛЯП. Традиционно съемки начались в музее-кабинете Бруно Понтекорво, где Вадим Александрович Бедняков рассказал о важности изучения нейтрино, о том, что можно узнать из нейтринных экспериментов и какова роль нашей лаборатории в этом. Затем съемочная группа переместилась в Зеленую лабораторию, где Дмитрий Наумов ответил на вопросы о том, в каких нейтринных проектах участвует ЛЯП и насколько важно международное сотрудничество в нейтринной тематике.

Preview of the general laboratory seminar “Study of elastic NN interactions using polarized beams and target at ANKE–COSY” by Sergey Dymov, 30.01.2019

  To make a contribution to the nucleon–nucleon scattering data array is one of priority research directions for the ANKE collaboration. These data are needed both for an advance in the understanding of nuclear forces and for description of meson production processes and other nuclear reactions at intermediate energies.

Preview of the general laboratory seminar “Development of the multi-energy X-ray tomography method using detectors based on microchips of the Medipix family” by Danila Kozhevnikov, 29.01.2019

  Hybrid pixel detectors based on Medipix microchips allow data on the energy of each photon hitting a particular pixel to be obtained in addition to the coordinate information. Their development and wide use in the past decade have renewed interest in multi-energy X-ray computer tomography, opening up a possibility of not only obtaining a high-quality image of the sample under investigation but also determining its elemental composition.
