Muon tomography, based on the measurement of multiple scattering of cosmic ray muons traversing a volume to be investigated, is an attractive technique for detecting hidden high-Z materials. A cosmic ...

We consider the three-dimensional Dirac equation in spherical coordinates with coupling to static electromagnetic potential. The space components of the potential have angular (non-central) dependence ...

A comprehensive description of the muon storage ring and its operation is given, and the final results of the experiment are presented and discussed. The anomalous magnetic moments of positive and ...

The requirement that P and T be approximately conserved in the color gauge theory of strong interactions without arbitrary adjustment of parameters is analyzed. Several possibilities are identified, ...

Using the data on deep inelastic muon scattering on iron and deuterium the ratio of the nucleon structure functions F 2 N ( Fe )/ F 2 N ( D ) is presented. The observed x -dependence of this ratio is ...

Polarization effects are considered in colliding γe and γγ beams, which are proposed to be obtained on the basis of linear e + e − colliders (by backward Compton scattering of laser light on electron ...

If high energy heavy ion collisions lead to the formation of a hot quark-gluon plasma, then colour screening prevents cc binding in the deconfined interior of the interaction region. To study this ...

We compute the four-loop ( O ( α ′ 4 )) metric β-function for the two-dimensional bosonic non-linear σ-model. We employ an indirect method which avoids a large part of the explicit calculation and as ...

Four-point correlation functions are calculated for the basic operators in 2D conformal invariant theories with the central charge of the corresponding Virasoro algebra C ≤1. Based on these results, ...

(Translated from the Russian abstract of the first edition): For the first time in the world literature, the theory of vacuum quantum effects in external electromagnetic and gravitational fields is ...

An alternative calculation technique in the generator-coordinate method (GCM) has been proposed in which square-well potential between nucleon-pairs is employed, instead of the harmonic oscillator ...

Differential cross sections for π± elastic scattering on C14 at a pion kinetic energy of 164 MeV were measured over the angular range 20°–91°. A contaminant analysis was performed for the target ...
