Antineutrino Interactions in the 14' H(2)-Neon BC (open access)

Antineutrino Interactions in the 14' H(2)-Neon BC

We propose a 50-100,000 photo exploratory exposure of the 14{prime} BC filled with {approx}30% Neon, 70% H{sub 2}, to a broad band {bar {nu}} beam produced by whatever intensity ({approx}> 10{sup 12}) IP/pulse and energy ({approx}> 200 GeV) external proton beam is initially available. The Ne-H{sub 2} mixture permits {approx}10 x higher event rate than pure H{sub 2}; also direct detection of {gamma}, K{sub 2}{sup o}, n; better {mu}{sup {+-}}, e{sup {+-}} identification and the possibility of coherent production reactions from the nucleus as a whole as well as incoherent reactions from both neutrons and protons. The event rate vs. E{sub {bar {nu}}} and q{sup 2} will be measured to {approx}130 GeV permitting (in comparison with HBC experiments) estimate of the A dependence of {sigma}{sub T}, and (given crude flux estimates) tests of scaling and locality in d{sup 2}{sigma}/dE{sub {bar {nu}}}dq{sup 2} and {sigma}{sub T} as well as comparison of {sigma}{sub T} on n and p and of these with corresponding {nu} cross sections. Cross sections, particle momenta, invariant mass and angular correlation spectra will be measured for dominant channels permitting crude tests of {Delta}I = 1, {Delta}I = 1/2, {Delta}S = {Delta}Q, {Delta}S {ne} 2 rules.

Proton-Deuteron Interactions in the Thirty-Inch Bubble Chamber (open access)

Proton-Deuteron Interactions in the Thirty-Inch Bubble Chamber

We propose two exposures in the thirty-inch chamber filled with deuterium, using protons of 100 and 200 GeV/c, with 50,000 pictures at each momentum. We plan to study various properties of p-n interactions including odd-prong multiplicity cross section, single and double dissociation, average {pi}{sup o} multiplicity, inclusive pion production, and correlations.
