Kaonic nitrogen X-ray transition yields in a gaseous target
Abstract The first measurement of the yields of three kaonic nitrogen X-ray transitions, using the DEAR (DAΦNE Exotic Atom Research) setup at the DAΦNE collider of Frascati, is reported. The yields are 41.5±8.7(stat.)±4.1(sys.)% for the n =7→6 transition, 55.0±3.9(stat.)±5.5(sys.)% for the n =6→5 transition and 57.4±15.2(stat.)±5.7(sys.)% for the n =5→4 transition at a density ρ =3.4 ρ NTP . By using the experimental yields in an atomic cascade calculation, a 1 to 3% K-shell electron population in the n =6 level was deduced.

Muon catalyzed fusion experiments on muonic deuterium atom deceleration in thin solid deuterium films
Abstract Muon catalyzed fusion was investigated in a series of thin solid deuterium films by detecting protons from dd fusion. Two different contributions to the total fusion yield resulting from dμ atoms emitted from a primary hydrogen layer and from incident muons directly stopped in the deuterium film itself were observed. The thickness dependence of the fusion yield suggested the importance of molecular effects in dμ elastic scattering in D 2 .

Radioactive Muonic Atom Studies with Intense Muon Beams
New intense muon beams with flux several orders of magnitude higher than at present muon facilities would allow many novel experimental studies that were until now statistically not feasible. The investigation of the nuclear properties of short‐lived nuclei using muonic atom spectroscopy would become possible. In this paper, the recent progress of a feasibility study at RIKEN‐RAL muon facility using the cold hydrogen film method to produce radioactive muonic atoms is being reported. The first experimental results have just been obtained with stable argon ions implanted in solid deuterium films.

Discovery of the repulsive energy shift of the kaonic hydrogen 1s state
Abstract The aim in this manuscript is to clarify the progress in understanding the nature of the K ¯ N interaction at the lowest energy, given by the recent kaonic hydrogen X-ray experiment at KEK [1]. We have observed a clear spectrum showing the kaonic hydrogen K α line, for the first time. The analysis gives the repulsive energy shift to be Δ E (1 s ) = −323 ± 63(statistical) ± 11 (systematic) eV and the energy width to be Λ(1 s ) = 407 ± 208 ± 100 eV. This result is consistent with analyses of the previous low-energy scattering data and resolves the long-standing kaonic hydrogen puzzle.

Compact 8-lead unit for the SC correction coils of the SuperKEKB IR magnet system
In the proposed SuperKEKB interaction region (IR) magnet system 40superconducting (SC) correction coils are designed to perform some specific functions withcurrent of about 50 A. To energize these coils, 80 current leads will be mounted in thecryostats where the stringent spatial constraint and the cryogenic operation require acompact and optimum design. We propose a compact unit to integrate 8 helium vaporcooled leads (4 pairs). The 8 leads are made of brass and consist of two structures for thetransported current and helium vapor, which are designed and simulated by finite elementmodel (FEM). This paper will introduce the material selection and structure details. To equalize the temperature profiles of the individual leads under the different currents and helium flows, some copper blocks are placed between leads. In the cold test, the 8 leadswere operated in the nominal mode and responded safely to some transient situation. This paper will present the thermal and electrical comparison between the experi...

Tetraquark particle in the string model
We discuss the possibility of the existence of tetraquark states made of four quarks in the string (flux tube) model. The new particle is composed of a diquark and an antidiquark which are connected by a color flux. It is shown that the vibrational and rotational excited states of the string explain some non-qq mesons observed experimentally. Moreover we discuss the decay widths of such tetraquarks with the use of the Schwinger mechanism.

First order phase transition in quark matter
We investigate chiral phase transition of the first order in the quark matter. Using the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model, an equation of state of the quark matter which is similar to the van der Waals's one is obtained. Moreover the specific heat and the compressibility are calculated. It is shown that they are enhanced in the symmetry broken phase, in particular, diverge near the tricritical point.

Thermodynamic Properties of Color Superconducting Quark Matter
Thermodynamics for color superconducting quark matter is investigated on the basis of the one-gluon-exchange model. Thermodynamic quantities are calculated by using a mean field (BCS) approximation. It is shown that there exists a phase transition of second order between the superconducting phase and normal phase. The pressure and density become larger in the superconducting phase. The specific heat and compressibility have a discontinuity at the critical temperature.
