Operational Experience with Tevatron I Antiproton Source
The secondaries are transported down the AP2 line into the Debuncher ring. The Debdncher ring has a 207 x 23~ transverse acceptance and 4% momentum acceptance. The antiprotons are then rotated using 4.2 MV of 53 MHz R.F. to .4% Ap/p in 80 turns and the adIabatically debunched to .2% APIP. The antiproton are then stochastically cooled for 2 seconds in the transverse planes with 2-4 GHz cooling systems to 771 x 77. The antiproton are then extracted from the Debuncher and transported across the D/A line to the Accumulator.

title: Superconducting Delay Line for Stochastic Cooling Filters
abstract: The stochastic cooling system of the antiproton source at Fermilab uses notch filters for reducing the feedback power at frequencies corresponding to particles in the core. At the same time these filters assist in shaping the gain vs. momentum in the stack tail. These filters, therefore, must attenuate all the harmonics of the revolution frequency (629 kHz) in the operating frequency band (1-2 GHz). They require components providing delays of 1.59 microseconds with a minimum of attenuation and undesirable distortion in this passband. Transmission lines providing such delays are typically 328 m long, have a rather large diameter, and are fabricated from a high conductivity material to keep the attenuation sufficiently low. The use of superconductors allows a dramatic reduction in the diameter, total size, and cost of this component in spite of the added cryogenic requirements. The authors measured the performance of two such cables in order to demonstrate the feasibility of the superconducting cable-notch filter concept. The first cable is an 84 m long superconducting coax consisting of a solid Niobium inner conductor inside a teflon dielectric, a lead outer conductor, and an outer jacket of mylar tape. The second cable is a 1.0 km long coaxial line more » with an inner conductor of lead-plated copper wire, a FEP teflon dielectric, and an outer conductor of leadplated copper tape wrapped with mylar. This paper discusses the results of performance testing of both cables and assesses their compatibilities with notch filters. « less

title: Mechanical and Electrical Design of the Fermilab Lithium Lens and Transformer System
abstract: A lithium lens focusing device will be used for the collection of 8 GeV antiprotons in the Fermilab Tevatron I Project. The details of the mechanical and electrical design of the Fermilab lens and its associated toroidal transformer are discussed. The lens, with a radius of 1 cm and length 15 cm, is expected to achieve gradients of 1000 T/m for a focal distance of 0.225 m. The gradient requires a current on the order of 5x105A, resulting in large electromagnetic and thermal stresses. The power supply discharge current and the effect of the inductance of the power leads and connections are minimized by the use of a toroidal matching transformer surrounding the lens itself.

title: Helium Refrigeration System and Cryogenic System for Superconducting Switchyard Magnets at Fermilab
abstract: The first Fermilab Satellite Refrigerator produced from commercially built components has been operated in the Switchyard in a stand alone mode. After some initial shakedown runs, it has been used to cool two magnetically opposed superconducting magnets in the external beam line to the Meson Laboratory. This equipment was installed as a test of the cryogenic system to be used in converting the entire major horizontal bend to superconducting magnets (currently containing 56 conventional 10 foot dipoles). We report here on the successful operation of the refrigerator, our operating experience with the cryo nic system, and the successful transport of 1.8 x 10'1 350 GeV protons per pulse through the magnets. The complete system was designed and built by Fermilab personnel. Process and component specification and design were shared by Fermilab and an independent consulting

title: Measurements of magnet quench levels induced by proton beam spray
abstract: A superconducting dipole magnet was installed in the Fermilab primary beam line. Targets were inserted in the proton beam upstream of the magnet and measurements made of the energy deposition within the magnet sufficient to cause quenching. The quench levels were 25 mW/g for 1 sec beam spill and 1 mJ/g for a spill of 1 msec or less. In comparison, the energy deposition at the extraction septum was 0.6 mJ/g.

title: Searches for violation of lepton flavour and baryon number in tau lepton decays at LHCb
abstract: Searches for the lepton flavour violating decay tau(-) -> mu(-)mu(+)mu(-) and the lepton flavour and baryon number violating decays tau(-) -> (p) over bar mu(+)mu(-) and tau(-) -> p mu(-)mu(-) have been carried out using proton-proton collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb(-1), taken by the LHCb experiment at root s = 7 TeV. No evidence has been found for any signal, and limits have been set at 90% confidence level on the branching fractions: B(tau(-) -> mu(-)mu(+)mu(-) mu(+)mu(-)) p mu(-)mu(-)) (p) over bar mu(+)mu(-) and tau(-) -> p mu(-)mu(-) decay modes represent the first direct experimental limits on these channels.

title: Response functions for deep inelastic scattering from Ca-40
abstract: Deep inelastic electron scattering cross sections have been measured from /sup 40/Ca at energies between 100 and 375 MeV and at scattering angles of 90/sup 0/ and 140/sup 0/. Longitudinal and transverse response functions at three-vector momentum transfers of 330, 370, and 410 MeV/c were extracted from these data using a Rosenbluth separation. The integrated longitudinal response functions for the three momentum transfers are found to have, respectively, 65%, 75%, and 90% of the longitudinal strength predicted by the Fermi gas model.

title: Observation of $B^0_s\rightarrow\chi_{c1}\phi$ decay and study of $B^0\rightarrow\chi_{c1,2}K^{*0}$ decays
abstract: The first observation of the decay $B^0_s\rightarrow\chi_{c1}\phi$ and a study of $B^0\rightarrow\chi_{c1,2}K^{*0}$ decays are presented. The analysis is performed using a dataset, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb$^{-1}$, collected by the LHCb experiment in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. The following ratios of branching fractions are measured: \begin{equation*} \begin{array}{lll} \dfrac{\cal{B}(B^0_s\rightarrow\chi_{c1}\phi)}{\cal{B}(B^0_s\rightarrow J/\psi\phi)} &=& (18.9 \pm1.8\,(stat)\pm1.3\,(syst)\pm0.8\,(\cal{B})) \times 10^{-2}, \nonumber \\ \noalign{\vskip 3pt} \dfrac{\cal{B}(B^0\rightarrow\chi_{c1}K^{*0})}{\cal{B}(B^0\rightarrow J/\psiK^{*0})} &=& (19.8 \pm1.1\,(stat)\pm1.2\,(syst)\pm0.9\,(\cal{B})) \times 10^{-2}, \nonumber \\ \noalign{\vskip 3pt} \dfrac{\cal{B}(B^0\rightarrow\chi_{c2}K^{*0})}{\cal{B}(B^0\rightarrow\chi_{c 1}K^{*0})} &=& (17.1 \pm5.0\,(stat)\pm1.7\,(syst)\pm1.1\,(\cal{B})) \times 10^{-2}, \nonumber \\ \noalign{\vskip 3pt} \end{array} \end{equation*} \noindent where the third uncertainty is due to the limited knowledge of the branching fractions of ${\chi_{c}\rightarrow J/\psi \gamma}$ modes.

title: Combined analysis of world data on nucleon spin structure functions
abstract: We analyse the proton, deuteron and neutron spin dependent structure functions at fixed Q 2 = 5 GeV 2 . The experimental asymmetries for the proton, neutron and deuteron are compared and found to be consistent. The first moment of the neutron structure function is evaluated using all available data. We find that the Bjorken sum rule is confirmed within an experimental uncertainty of 17%. The quark spin contribution to the nucleon spin is small, and the strange quark spin content is different from zero.
