Single Event Effects Characterization of Maxwell 7846B DAC
Heavy ion test results indicate that the Maxwell 7846B 16 Bit DAC is susceptible to SET and SEU in the form of stable level changes at the device output.
Compendia of radiation test results of integrated circuits
Single event effects (SEE), total ionizing dose (TID) and radiation reliability data taken for existing space products is presented. The data was collected to evaluate these devices for radiation effects in space environments.
Monte carlo simulation of events with Drell-Yan lepton pairs from antiproton-proton collisions
The complete knowledge of the nucleon spin structure at leading twist requires also addressing the transverse spin distribution of quarks, or transversity, which is yet unexplored because of its chiral-odd nature. Transversity can be best extracted from single-spin asymmetries in fully polarized Drell-Yan processes with antiprotons, where valence contributions are involved anyway. Alternatively, in single-polarized Drell-Yan the transversity happens convoluted with another chiral-odd function, which is likely to be responsible for the well known (and yet unexplained) violation of the Lam-Tung sum rule in the corresponding unpolarized cross section. We present Monte Carlo simulations for the unpolarized and single-polarized Drell-Yan pp{sup ({up_arrow}}{sup )}{yields}{mu}{sup +}{mu}{sup -}X at different center-of-mass energies in both configurations where the antiproton beam hits a fixed proton target or it collides on another proton beam. The goal is to estimate the minimum number of events needed to extract the above chiral-odd distributions from future measurements at the high energy storage ring (HESR) at GSI. It is important to study the feasibility of such experiments at HESR in order to demonstrate that interesting spin physics can be explored already using unpolarized antiprotons.
