Dominant two-step process in nuclear fragmentation at high energies.
Definitive measurements of negative {l angle}{ital p}{sub {ital L}}{r angle} in the projectile rest frame are carried out for isotopes produced by fragmentation of relativistic {sup 16}O and {sup 12}C nucleus projectiles. They are analyzed for the evidence of the dominant two-step diffractive excitation processes during the fragmentation. Average energies in the range of 100 MeV or less are explored and the decays of the excited states with lifetimes longer than 10{sup {minus}21} s are investigated.

CERN beam test of silicon-tungsten calorimeter test module
PIN diode silicon sensors with low leakage current were developed as 4×4 pixel arrays from 5 inch wafers. A test module of silicon-tungsten calorimeter was designed, built using the sensors, and tested with high energy beam of electron, muon, and hadrons for the study of its application at the future linear collider. The construction of the test module and the results of the beam test are discussed.

Increase of black hole entropy in higher curvature gravity.
We examine the Zeroth Law and the Second Law of black hole thermodynamics within the context of effective gravitational actions including higher curvature interactions. We show that entropy can never decrease for quasi-stationary processes in which a black hole accretes positive energy matter, independent of the details of the gravitational action. Within a class of higher curvature theories where the Lagrangian consists of a polynomial in the Ricci scalar, we use a conformally equivalent theory to establish that stationary black hole solutions with a Killing horizon satisfy the Zeroth Law, and that the Second Law holds in general for any dynamical process. We also introduce a new method for establishing the Second Law based on a generalization of the area theorem, which may prove useful for a wider class of Lagrangians. Finally, we show how one can infer the form of the black hole entropy, at least for the Ricci polynomial theories, by integrating the changes of mass and angular momentum in a quasistationary accretion process.

On black hole entropy.
Two techniques for computing black hole entropy in generally covariant gravity theories including arbitrary higher derivative interactions are studied. The techniques are Wald's Noether charge approach introduced recently, and a field redefinition method developed in this paper. Wald's results are extended by establishing that his local geometric expression for the black hole entropy gives the same result when evaluated on an arbitrary cross section of a Killing horizon (rather than just the bifurcation surface). Further, we show that his expression for the entropy is not affected by ambiguities which arise in the Noether construction. Using the Noether charge expression, the entropy is evaluated explicitly for black holes in a wide class of generally covariant theories. For a Lagrangian of the functional form L\ifmmode \tilde{}\else \~{}\fi{}=L\ifmmode \tilde{}\else \~{}\fi{}(${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\psi}}}_{\mathit{m}}$, ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\nabla}}}_{\mathit{a}}$${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\psi}}}_{\mathit{m}}$,${\mathit{g}}_{\mathit{a}\mathit{b}}$,${\mathit{R}}_{\mathit{a}\mathit{b}\mathit{c}\mathit{d}}$, ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\nabla}}}_{\mathit{e}}$${\mathit{R}}_{\mathit{a}\mathit{b}\mathit{c}\mathit{d}}$), it is found that the entropy is given by S=-2\ensuremath{\pi}\ensuremath{\oint}(${\mathit{Y}}^{\mathit{a}\mathit{b}\mathit{c}\mathit{d}}$-${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\nabla}}}_{\mathit{e}}$${\mathit{Z}}^{\mathit{e}:\mathit{a}\mathit{b}\mathit{c}\mathit{d}}$) \ensuremath{\epsilon}${\mathrm{^}}_{\mathit{a}\mathit{b}}$\ensuremath{\epsilon}${\mathrm{^}}_{\mathit{c}\mathit{d}}$\ensuremath{\epsilon}\ifmmode\bar\else\textasciimacron\fi{}, where the integral is over an arbitrary cross section of the Killing horizon, \ensuremath{\epsilon}${\mathrm{^}}_{\mathit{a}\mathit{b}}$ is the binormal to the cross section, ${\mathit{Y}}^{\mathit{a}\mathit{b}\mathit{c}\mathit{d}}$=\ensuremath{\partial}L\ifmmode \tilde{}\else \~{}\fi{}/\ensuremath{\partial}${\mathit{R}}_{\mathit{a}\mathit{b}\mathit{c}\mathit{d}}$, and ${\mathit{Z}}^{\mathit{e}:\mathit{a}\mathit{b}\mathit{c}\mathit{d}}$=\ensuremath{\partial}L\ifmmode \tilde{}\else \~{}\fi{}/\ensuremath{\partial}${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\nabla}}}_{\mathit{e}}$${\mathit{R}}_{\mathit{a}\mathit{b}\mathit{c}\mathit{d}}$.
