Performance of an accordion electromagnetic calorimeter with liquid krypton and argon
Test results of a liquid krypton/argon electromagnetic calorimeter with accordion type electrode structure are presented. The test was carried out at the Brookhaven AGS in a negative beam with good electron identification at momenta 5, 10, 15, and 20 GeV/c. Results on energy resolution, linearity, pointing resolution, and muon response are presented. The results are in good agreement with Monte Carlo calculations. The energy resolution of 6.7%E was achieved using liquid krypton and 7.7%E with liquid argon, with a negligible constant term.

title: Calibration of the Yangbajing Air-shower Core detector using the test beam of BEPCII
abstract: Core detector(YAC) has been developed for the next phase of Tibet air-shower experiment to measure the chemical composition of cosmic rays in “knee” region. A preparation is made for calibration of the linearity of the dynamic range and position dependence of light yield of YAC using test beam of BEPCII. A scraper will be used to attenuate the electron beam intensity from about 10 10 /pulse to 10 2 –10 6 /pulse. A Faraday cup, a thick ionization chamber and a thin ionization chamber are being manufactured to monitor the beam intensity covering dynamic range from 10 2 /pulse to 10 10 /pulse.

title: Determination of the branching ratio of the decay pi 0-->e+e-
abstract: Employing the decay chain K + →π + p 0 , π 0 →e + e - we have observed the decay π 0 →e + e - . With a signal sample of ≃21 events we measure the branching ratio for π 0 →e + e - to be (6.9±2.3±0.6)×10 -8 , normalized to the decay K + →π + p 0 , π 0 →e + e - γ. This result is consistent with the unitarity lower bound and the published 90% confidence level upper limit of 13×10 -8

title: Performance of missing transverse momentum reconstructionin proton-proton collisions at √s = 7 TeV with ATLAS
abstract: The measurement of missing transverse momentum in the ATLAS detector, described in this paper, makes use of the full event reconstruction and a calibration based on reconstructed physics objects. The performance of the missing transverse momentum reconstruction is evaluated using data collected in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV in 2010. Minimum bias events and events with jets of hadrons are used from data samples corresponding to an integrated luminosity of about 0.3 nb^(−1) and 600 nb^(−1) respectively, together with events containing a Z boson decaying to two leptons (electrons or muons) or a W boson decaying to a lepton (electron or muon) and a neutrino, from a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of about 36 pb^(−1). An estimate of the systematic uncertainty on the missing transverse momentum scale is presented.

title: Coherence effects and broadening in medium-induced QCD radiation off a massive $ q\bar{q} $ antenna
abstract: A bstractStudies of medium-induced QCD radiation usually rely on the calculation of single-gluon radiation spectrum off an energetic parton traversing an extended colored medium. Recently, the importance of interference effects between emitters in the medium has been explored. In this work we extend previous studies by calculating the single-gluon coherent spectrum off an antenna consisting of a massive quark-antiquark pair. Interferences dominate the spectrum of soft gluons, which are mainly emitted outside of the cone made by the antenna opening angle, while the antenna results in a superposition of independent emitters above a critical gluon energy scale. We study the interplay between the dead-cone effect and medium-induced jet broadening in both cases of soft and hard gluons and present results on energy loss distributions.

title: BESII detector simulation
abstract: A Monte Carlo program based on GEANT3 has been developed for BESII detector simulation. The organization of the program is outlined, and the digitization procedure for simulating the response of various sub-detectors is described. Comparisons with data show that the performance of the program is generally satisfactory.

title: Search for the Lepton Flavor Violation Process J/ψ→eμ at BESIII
abstract: We search for the lepton-flavor-violating decay of the J/psi into an electron and a muon using (225.3 +/- 2.8) x 10(6) J/psi events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII. Four candidate events are found in the signal region, consistent with background expectations. An upper limit on the branching fraction of B(J/psi -> e mu) <1.6 x 10(-7) (90% C.L.) is obtained.

title: Partial wave analysis of $J/\psi \to \gamma \eta \eta$
abstract: Based on a sample of $2.25\times 10^{8}$ $J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII, a full partial wave analysis on $J/\psi\to\gamma\eta\eta$ was performed using the relativistic covariant tensor amplitude method. The results show that the dominant $0^{++}$ and $2^{++}$ components are from the $f_0(1710)$, $f_0(2100)$, $f_0(1500)$, $f_2'(1525)$, $f_2(1810)$ and $f_2(2340)$. The resonance parameters and branching fractions are also presented.
