Inclusive production of lambda and neutral kaon in K−p interactions at 3.93 GeV/c and 14.3 GeV/c
SummaryLambda and neutral-kaon production is studied in K−p interactions at 3.93 and 14.3 GeV/c. Topological inclusive cross-sections are given at both energies. Invariant cross-sections for lambdas and neutral kaons are presented as a function of the Feynmanx-variable and are found to decrease in magnitude and vary their shapes with energy. The

$$AK\overline K $$

 production, which represents (9±2)% and (29±3)% of the lambda inclusive cross-section at 3.93 GeV/c and 14.3 GeV/c respectively, yields mainly backward lambdas. The shapes of the transverse-momentum invariant distributions vary withx, but are roughly independent of energy. The lambda polarization is studied as a function ofx at both incident momenta: for fast lambdas it is negative, as observed in reactions where nucleon exchange is dominant.RiassuntoSi studia la produzione di particelle lambda e di kaoni neutri nelle interazioni K−p a 3.93 e 14.3 GeV/c. Per entrambi i valori dell'energia si danno le sezioni d'urto inclusive topologiche. Si presentano le sezioni d'urto invarianti per particelle lambda e kaoni neutri in funzione della variabilex di Feynman e si trova che diminuiscono in grandezza e cambiano di forma con l'energia.

, che rappresenta il (9±2)% e il (29±3)% della sezione d'urto inclusiva delle particelle lambda rispettivamente a 3.93 GeV/c e 14.3 GeV/c, dà per lo più particelle lambda che vanno all'indietro. Gli andamenti delle distribuzioni invarianti dell'impulso trasversale variano conx, ma sono approssimativamente indipendenti dall'energia. Si studia la polarizzazione delle particelle lambda in funzione dix per entrambi i valori dell'impulso incidente: per particelle lambda veloci è negativa, come si è osservato in reazioni in cui predomina lo scambio di nucleoni.РезюмеИсследуется рождение ламбда и нейтрального каона в K−p взаимодействиях при 3.93 ГэВ/с и 14.3 ГэВ/с. При обеих энергиях приводятся топологические инклюзивные поперечные сечения. Инвариантные поперечные сечения для ламбда и нейтральных каонов представлены в виде функции фейнмановскойx переменной. Получено, что поперечные сечения уменьшаются по величине и изменяют свою форму с энергией.

$$AK\overline K $$

 рождение, которое составляет соответственно (9±2)% и (29±3)% ламбда инклюзивного поперечного сечения при 3.93 ГэВ/с и 14.3 ГэВ/с, образует в основном ламбда-частицы, летящие в обратном направлении. Формы инвариантных распределений для поперечного импульса изменяются с «x», но вгрубом приближении не зависят от энергии. Исследуется поляризация ламбда, как функцияx для обоих начальных испульсов: для быстрых ламбда-частиц поляризация отрицательная, как наблюдается в реакциях, где доминирует нуклонный обмен.

Search for direct electron production in p-p and p-Be collisions at 12 GeV/c
We have made a systematic search for direct e/sup +/ and e/sup -/ production in p-p and p-Be collisions at 12 GeV/c incident proton momentum. Data were collected at c.m. angles of 20/sup 0/, 35/sup 0/, 63/sup 0/, and 84/sup 0/. We find no evidence for the previously reported rise in the ratio e/..pi.. at low momentum transfer. The data are consistent with zero direct electron production from other than previously known sources.

A Measurement of K0(L) --> pi+ pi- pi0 Decay Parameters
The decay ${K}_{L}^{0}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}$ has been studied in an experiment using the Argonne 12-ft hydrogen bubble chamber exposed to a ${K}_{L}^{0}$ beam of momentum 550 \ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{} 35 MeV/c. After radiative corrections to the data, a fit using a matrix element of the form ${|M|}^{2}\ensuremath{\propto}1+\frac{g({s}_{3}\ensuremath{-}{s}_{0})}{{{m}_{{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}}}^{2}}+h{[\frac{({s}_{3} \ensuremath{-} {s}_{0})}{{{m}_{{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}}}^{2}}]}^{2} + k{[\frac{({s}_{1} \ensuremath{-} {s}_{2})}{{{m}_{{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}}}^{2}}]}^{2}$ gives $g = 0.681\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.24$, $h = 0.095\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.032$, and $k = 0.024\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.010$. The branching ratio $\frac{\ensuremath{\Gamma}({K}_{L}^{0}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0})}{\ensuremath{\Gamma}({K}_{L}^{0}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\mathrm{charged})}$ was measured to be 0.163 \ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{} 0.003. These results, when compared to those obtained in other ${K}_{L}^{0}$ and ${K}^{\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}}$ decay experiments, indicate a substantial $\ensuremath{\Delta}g\frac{1}{2}$ contribution to the ${K}_{L}^{0}$ decay amplitude.

Measurement of wide-angle elastic scattering of pions and protons off protons
A comprehensive measurement of the differential cross section for ..pi../sup + -/p and pp elastic scattering has been made at large center-of-mass angles. ..pi../sup -/p and pp scattering were measured with incident laboratory momenta ranging from 2 to 9.5 GeV/c. ..pi../sup +/p scattering was measured with momenta from 2 to 6.3 GeV/c. Scattering angles were in the range -0.3 < or approx. = costheta/sub c.m./ < or approx. = 0.4. The results of the experiment are compared to constituent models and statistical models.

Anomalous electron loading in SLAC 5045 klystron and relativistic klystron input cavities
Studies of RF breakup and instability in the SLAC (Stanford Linear Accelerator Center) 5045 klystrons have revealed that many production klystrons show loading of the input cavity by low-energy electrons even under cold-cathode no-beam conditions. Sometime after the onset of the RF drive pulse, the input cavity absorbs a portion of the incident RF drive that would otherwise be reflected from the not-beam-loaded cavity. This power absorption is a function of drive level and of axial magnetic field surrounding the cavity. No power absorption is present when the axial magnetic field is zero. This same phenomenon has been observed in the input cavity of relativistic klystron experiments being conducted as part of the SLAC-LBL-LLNL development program. The phenomenon may be associated with RF breakup and RF instability in SLAC 5045 klystrons, and with unstable pulse shortening in the relativistic klystron experiments. Some old and new observations of microwave beam device malfunctions that probably are associated with low-energy electron fluxes in the vacuum environments of microwave power devices are outlined.<<ETX>>

CTF3 Drive-Beam Injector Design
The Two-Beam Accelerator concept is one of the most promising methods for producing RF power for future linear colliders. In particular it allows upgrades to multiTeV energies. One of its challenges is the production of the high current drive beam, which as it passes through decelerating structures, produces RF power for acceleration of the main beam. These challenges must be studied at a smaller scale test facility.

High-Efficiency Resonant Cavity Quadrupole Moment Monitor
Measurement of the beam quadrupole moment at several locations can be used to reconstruct the beam envelope and emittance parameters. The measurements can be performed in a non-intercepting way using a set of quadrupole-mode cavities. We present a cavity design with an optimized quadrupole moment shunt impedance. The cavity properties can be characterized using a wire test method to insure symmetry about the central axis, and alignment to nearby position sensing cavities. The design and characterization of the prototype structure is discussed.

Codes and supersymmetry in one dimension
Adinkras are diagrams that describe many useful supermultiplets in D=1 dimensions. We show that the topology of the Adinkra is uniquely determined by a doubly even code. Conversely, every doubly even code produces a possible topology of an Adinkra. A computation of doubly even codes results in an enumeration of these Adinkra topologies up to N=28, and for minimal supermultiplets, up to N=32.

Emittance dilution and beam breakup in the JLC / NLC
The passage of a multi-bunch beam through an X-band accelerator with cells and structures misaligned gives rise to wakefields which disrupt succeeding bunches. As a consequence, there is growth in the overall emittance of the final colliding bunches. Here we study this process in the context of a JLC-NLC which employs the recently developed RDDS (Rounded Damped Detuned Structures) accelerators with 120 s fill time and drives a 90 bunch, 250 ns bunch train. We investigate cumulative beam break-up (BBU) under various parameter regimes appropriate to the structure which is in the process of being fabricated by KEK and SLAC. We compute the resultant emittance growth by means of analytical expressions and find good agreement with the results we obtain from a particle tracking code. We set misalignment tolerances by specifying allowable emittance growth.
