Asymmetry in the angular distribution of inclusive A baryons from e/sup +/e/sup -/ annihilations at. sqrt. s = 29 GeV (open access)

Asymmetry in the angular distribution of inclusive A baryons from e/sup +/e/sup -/ annihilations at. sqrt. s = 29 GeV

The forward-backward asymmetry A expected from the ..gamma.. - Z/sup 0/ interference term in the process e/sup +/e/sup -/ ..-->.. q anti q is observed in the lab production angular distribution of high momentum A baryons. The data were collected with the High Resolution Spectrometer at PEP and an integrated luminosity of 256 pb/sup -1/ at ..sqrt..s = 29 GeV was used in the analysis. The asymmetry is seen to increase with the fractional energy z = 2E/..sqrt..s of the A due to the decreasing presence of nonleading particles. The value obtained for A baryons with z greater than or equal to 0.3 is A = -0.22 +- 0.08 +- 0.02.

lambda. production in e/sup +/e/sup -/ annihilations at 29 GeV (open access)

lambda. production in e/sup +/e/sup -/ annihilations at 29 GeV

This paper presents measurements of the inclusive production cross sections of ..lambda.. baryons in e/sup +/e/sup -/ annihilations at ..sqrt..s = 29 GeV. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 256 pb/sup -1/ collected with the High Resolution Spectrometer at PEP. Comparisons are made to the predictions of the Lund model. The data are well described using a strange diquark suppression parameter, (us/ud)/(s/d), of 0.89 +- 0.10/sub -0.16//sup +0.56/, and the measured ..lambda../sub c/ ..-->.. ..lambda.. + X branching ratio of 23 +- 10%. No polarization is observed in the ..lambda.. decays. 17 refs., 5 figs.

Effect of gamma radiation on groundwater chemistry and glass leaching as related to the NNWSI repository site (open access)

Effect of gamma radiation on groundwater chemistry and glass leaching as related to the NNWSI repository site

To address the effect of ionizing radiation on groundwater chemistry and waste form durability, NNWSI is performing an extensive set of experiments as a function of dose rate (2 x 10{sup 5}, 1 x 10{sup 4}, 1 x 10{sup 3}, and 0 rad/h). The results of the tests done at 2 x 10{sup 5} rad/h have been reported, while the 1 x 10{sup 3} and 0 rad/h tests are in progress. This paper presents an overview of the results of the tests done at 1 x 10{sup 4} rad/h and discusses the relevance of these tests to repository conditions. An interpretation of the results relating to the manner by which the glass waste form corrodes is presented elsewhere. A complete discussion of the effect of gamma radiation on groundwater chemistry and waste form durability will be presented when the series of experiments are complete.

Thermodynamics of higher dimensional black holes (open access)

Thermodynamics of higher dimensional black holes

We discuss the thermodynamics of higher dimensional black holes with particular emphasis on a new class of spinning black holes which, due to the increased number of Casimir invariants, have additional spin degrees of freedom. In suitable limits, analytic solutions in arbitrary dimensions are presented for their temperature, entropy, and specific heat. In 5 + 1 and 9 + 1 dimensions, more general forms for these quantities are given. It is shown that the specific heat for a higher dimensional black hole is negative definite if it has only one non-zero spin parameter, regardless of the value of this parameter. We also consider equilibrium configurations with both massless particles and massive string modes. 16 refs., 3 figs.

Subsurface marker emplacement test plan (open access)

Subsurface marker emplacement test plan

Current plans propose placing subsurface markers within protective barriers to deter potential human intrusion into disposed radioactive wastes. The subsurface markers would provide warning to the digging intruder should surface markers be removed, destroyed, or ignored. This plan sets forth procedures for testing the survivability of the subsurface markers during construction of the barrier. After the tests described herein are concluded, a decision can be made as to whether subsurface markers will require protection during barrier construction. If protection is required, additional tests will be needed to test the effectiveness of various protective approaches.

Application of EQ3/6 to modeling of nuclear waste glass behavior in a tuff repository (open access)

Application of EQ3/6 to modeling of nuclear waste glass behavior in a tuff repository

Modeling of glass degradation based on sound geochemical principles appears to be possible with revisions to EQ3/6. Realistic source terms for several repository scenarios may be generated with such a model. One scenario which appears very likely and which is also amenable to modeling using EQ3/6 is that in which an intact but perforated canister holds water in contact with waste glass. The water overflows continuously or periodically, allowing radionuclides to come in contact with repository rock. This isolated-type scenario will be the first realistic modeling effort because it limits complex interactions between rock and glass. However, EQ3/6 modeling should be possible even for very complicated scenarios if sufficient experimental data are available on rates and thermodynamics. This will be the limiting factor in progress toward modeling the complete system.

A Proposal to Study Beauty Production and Other Heavy Quark Physics Associated with Dimuon Production in 800 (925) GeV/C pp Interactions (open access)

A Proposal to Study Beauty Production and Other Heavy Quark Physics Associated with Dimuon Production in 800 (925) GeV/C pp Interactions

The presence of dimuons in final states produced in hadronic interactions has proved to be a valuable indicator that interesting hard physics processes have taken place. These muon pairs provide a mechanism for selecting these relatively rare processes from interactions due to the total cross section. In particular, processes involving heavy quarks are flagged by the presence of muon pairs. We are proposing to use the high rate E705 spectrometer and its dimuon trigger processor which have already functioned well in Experiments E-537 and E-705 to detect and measure several heavy quark phenomena which result in a final state containing a pair of muons. This experiment will use the primary proton beam from the Tevatron at the maximum energy available at the time of execution of the experiment. The spectrometer will be augmented by the addition of a silicon tracker similar to those used in other experiments at the Fermilab. The present P-West High Intensity Laboratory secondary beams will need to be upgraded by addition of sufficient bending power to allow the transport of the 800 to 925 GeV/c primary proton beam to the experiment target (see Appendix A).
