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.

, 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.

Two-body final states in K-p interactions at 14.3 GeV/c
Event selection and weighting. In Fig. 1 a), the distribution of the square of the missing mass to the K0 in all zero-prong plus one K ~ events is displayed; a clear neutron signal is visible with a half-width of approximately 0.4 (GeV)L In the study of reaction (1) we use all events with missing mass less than the A(1236) mass. The cross-section is corrected for the few neutron events above this cut by double-counting the symmetrical region below the neutron mass. We also correct for the background reaction

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.

LINAC BEAM INTERACTIONS AND INSTABILITIES
The electron beam which IS accelerated in the SLAC two-mile accelerator exhibits both transverse and longitudinal interactions with the disk-loaded waveguide, The transverse interactions include such effects as rf steering caused by field asymmetries which exist in the couplers, and beam breakup, The latter is a growing instability which occurs above a given current threshold and deflects the beam into the walls of the machine. The longitudinal interactions include bunching, acceleration and the general phenomenon of beam loading which causes spectrum broadening. Both beam breakup and beam loading are basically detrimental to the use of the beam and must be controlled or compensated for. Beam breakup, especially, is affected by the manner in which the beam is formed in the injector, and in particular by its time structure, i.e., whether the train of bunches is continuous or chopped. 1

A new target design and capture strategy for high-yield positron production in electron linear colliders
Abstract Monte Carlo calculations were performed using EGS4 to simulate the production of positrons by a high-energy electron beam incident on thin wire targets. A 1 mm diameter, 10 radiation length long tungsten-alloy wire was chosen as an optimal target. The new target, combined with an appropriate capture strategy, could triple the yield of the high-energy positron production systems currently in use.

Single Bunch Beam Loading on the SLAC Three-Kilometer Accelerator
Since the report on single bunch beam loading experiments at SLAC at the 1975 Particle Accelerator Conference, it has been possible to obtain a much better understanding and agreement of theoretical and experimental results related to this problem. These improvements have been made possible by two developments: the generation of a "wake-field" function for the SLAC 3-km slow-wave structure and the use of this function to calculate single bunch energy spectra. The wake-field function which gives the time decay of the fields generated by the passage of a deltafunction beam has been derived by summing all the TM cylindrically symmetrical modes of an equivalent accelerator cavity. By multiplying this wake-field function by a measured bunch density function and integrating along the bunch, it is possible to calculate the energy of each electron in the bunch. This in turn enables one to predict the energy spectrum for any given phase angle of the bunch with respect to the crest of the RF accelerating wave. Agreement between these calculations and experimental measurements is very good. The paper presents these results and discusses the possible sources of some of the remaining discrepancies.

Higher order correlations in computed particle distributions
The RMS emittances calculated for beam distributions using computer simulations are frequently dominated by higher-order aberrations. The possibility of defining higher-order correlations that can be removed from the distribution to result in a lower limit to the realizable emittance is explored. The purpose is to insert the correct combinations of linear lenses at the proper position so that the beam recombines in a way that cancels the effects of some higher-order forces. An example might be the nonlinear transverse space charge forces which cause a beam to spread. If the beam is then refocused so that the same nonlinear forces reverse the inward velocities, the resulting phase space distribution may reasonably approximate the original distribution. The motivation for this work comes from studies of a photocathode injector system for a linear accelerator intended to be used for a free-electron laser.<<ETX>>
