Comparison of moments from the valence structure function with QCD predictions
We present moments (both ordinary and Nachtmann) of the nucleon valence structure function measured in high Q 2 ν FE scattering, supplemented by data from deep inelastic eD scattering. These data seem to agree with QCD predictions for vector gluons. The QCD parameter Λ is found to be of the order 0.5 GeV.

title: A measurement of the ratio of longitudinal and transverse structure functions in neutrino interactions between 30 and 200 GeV
abstract: A new measurement of the ratio R = σ L / σ T of longitudinal and transverse structure functions in neutrino interactions on iron between 30 and 190 GeV neutrino energy is reported. The result is given as a function of the scale parameter x and the inelasticity ν of the interaction. The average value is R = 0.10 ± 0.07 around ν ≈ 50 GeV and is in accordance with a prediction from the QCD theory.

title: First measurement of the quark-to-photon fragmentation function
abstract: Earlier measurements at LEP of isolated hard photons in hadronic Z decays, attributed to radiation from primary quark pairs, have been extended in the ALEPH experiment to include hard photon productioninside hadron jets. Events are selected where all particles combine democratically to form hadron jets, one of which contains a photon with a fractional energyz≥0.7. After statistical subtraction of non-prompt photons, the quark-to-photon fragmentation function,D(z), is extracted directly from the measured 2-jet rate. By taking into account the perturbative contributions toD(z) obtained from anO(ααs) QCD calculation, the unknown non-perturbative component ofD(z) is then determined at highz. Provided due account is taken of hadronization effects nearz=1, a good description of the other event topologies is then found.

title: Studies of quantum chromodynamics with the ALEPH detector
abstract: Previously published and as yet unpublished QCD results obtained with the ALEPH detector at LEP1 are presented. The unprecedented statistics allows detailed studies of both perturbative and non-perturbative aspects of strong interactions to be carried out using hadronic Z and tau decays. The studies presented include precise determinations of the strong coupling constant, tests of its flavour independence, tests of the SU(3) gauge structure of QCD, study of coherence effects, and measurements of single-particle inclusive distributions and two-particle correlations for many identified baryons and mesons.

title: Heavy quark tagging with leptons in the ALEPH detector
abstract: This paper deals with sustainable development policies in the French South-Eastern Alps region (Digne-les-Bains). It aims to delineate the influence of communication and mediation practices which are used to implement such principles in a largely reluctant area. This approach combines the point of views of two sciences, media and communication on the one hand, geography , on the other hand

title: Production of excited beauty states inZ decays
abstract: AbstractA data sample of about 3.0 million hadronicZ decays collected by the ALEPH experiment at LEP in the years 1991 through 1994 is used to make an inclusive selection of B hadron events. In this event sample 4227±140±252B* mesons in the decayB*→Bγ and 1944±108±161B**u,d mesons decaying into a B meson and a charged pion are reconstructed. Here and in the followingB**u,d denotes the eightL=1(bū) and (bd) states and their charge conjugate.For the well establishedB* meson the following quantities are obtained:ΔM=MB*−MB=(45.30±0.35±0.87) MeV/c2 andNB*/(NB+NB*)=(77.1±2.6±7.0)%. The angular distribution of the photons in theB* rest frame is used to measure the relative contribution of longitudinalB* polarization states to beσL/(σL+σT)=(33±6±5)%.In theM(Bπ)−M(B) mass difference resonance structure is observed at (424±4±10) MeV/c2, for which the shape and position is consistent with the expectation forB**u,d states decaying intoB(*)π±. The relative production rate is determined to be
$$\begin{gathered} \frac{{BR(Z \to b \to B_{u,d}^{ * * } )}}{{BR(Z \to b \to B_{u,d} )}} \hfill \\ = [27.9 \pm 1.6(stat) \pm 5.9(syst) {}_{ - 5.6}^{ + 3.9} (model)]\% \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$
 where the third error reflects the uncertainty due to different production and decay models for the broadB**u,d states.

title: Analysis and active compensation of microphonics in continuous wave narrow-bandwidth superconducting cavities
abstract: Many proposals for next generation light sources based on single pass free electron lasers or energy recovery linac facilities require a continuous wave (cw) driven superconducting linac. The effective beam loading in such machines is very small and in principle the cavities can be operated at a bandwidth of a few Hz and with less than a few kW of rf power. However, a power reserve is required to ensure field stability. A major error source is the mechanical microphonics detuning of the niobium cavities. To understand the influence of cavity detuning on longitudinal beam stability, a measurement program has been started at the horizontal cavity test facility HoBiCaT at HZB to study TESLA-type cavities. The microphonics detuning spectral content, peak detuning values, and the driving terms for these mechanical oscillations have been analyzed. In combination with the characterization of cw-adapted fast tuning systems based on the piezoelectric effect this information has been used to design a detuning compensation algorithm. It has been shown that a compensation factor between 2‐7 is achievable, reducing the typical detuning of 2‐3 Hz rms to below 0.5 Hz rms. These results were included in rf-control simulations of the cavities, and it was demonstrated that a phase stability below 0.02 � can be achieved.

title: STATUS OF THE BERLINPRO OPTICS DESIGN
abstract: Following the funding approval late 2010, HelmholtzZentrum Berlin officially started the realization of the Berlin Energy Recovery Linac Project BERLinPro in January 2011. The goal of this compact ERL is to develop the accelerator physics and technology required to accelerate a high-current (100 mA) and low emittance (1 mm·mrad normalized) beam, as desired by future large scale facilities based on ERLs, e.g ERL-based synchrotron light sources. Using the flexibility ERLs provides, a short bunch operation mode will also be investigated. A modified optics is presented and different non-linear issues are addressed.

title: MICROPHONICS MEASUREMENTS IN A CW-DRIVEN TESLA-TYPE CAVITY ∗
abstract: Superconducting cavities with a high quality factor exhibit a very low bandwidth in their resonant frequency, which makes their operation very sensitive to mechanical oscillations. In CW mode of operation, as it is intended for the BESSY-FEL Linac, microphonics are therefore the dominant error source for field stability. In order to compensate the detuning, it is necessary to properly characterize amplitude and frequency with respect to all involved mechanical and electrical components. Such measurements have been performed at the HoBiCaT test facility at BESSY and will be described in detail.

title: Start to end simulations for the BESSY FEL project
abstract: BESSY plans to construct a FEL multi user facility for the Soft-X-Ray spectral range from 20 eV to 1 keV . Central part of the project is a superconducting linac, based on the TESLA technology but operating in CW mode. A photo injector and a bunch compression scheme is introduced, allowing to reach the required electron beam parameters at the undulators beginning: up to 4 kA peak current ( 1 nC bunch charge), 1.5π mm mrad normalized transverse emittance and an energy spread below 1%. Extensive Start to End (S2E) simulations have been performed, using the programs ASTRA for the injector part, ELEGANT for the linac and bunch compression studies and GENESIS for the FEL process. Results of these simulations are presented and discussed.

title: Microscopic examination of defects located by thermometry in 1.5 GHz superconducting niobium cavities
abstract: A new high resolution, high speed thermometry system has been built at Cornell to permit the study of anomalous loss regions in 1.5 GHz superconducting Nb cavities in superfluid He. Following a cavity test, the cavity is dissected for examination of these regions in an electron microscope. Presented is a survey of the topographical and elemental characteristics of various defects found so far. Included are field emitters which were known to be active at the end of a cavity test, as well as those which processed.
