Pion production by protons on a thin beryllium target at 6.4, 12.3, and 17.5 GeV/c incident proton momenta

Abstract:

An analysis of inclusive pion production in proton-beryllium collisions at 6.4, 12.3, and 17.5 GeV/c proton beam momentum has been performed. The data were taken by Experiment 910 at the Alternating Gradient Synchrotron at the Brookhaven National Laboratory. The differential π+ and π- production cross sections (d2σ/dpdΩ) were measured up to 400 mrad in θπ and up to 6 GeV/c in pπ. The measured cross section was fit with a Sanford-Wang parametrization. © 2008 The American Physical Society.

Observation of the "head-tail" effect in nuclear recoils of low-energy neutrons

Abstract:

Directional detection of dark matter can provide unambiguous observation of dark matter interactions even in the presence of background. This article presents an experimental method to measure the direction tag ("head-tail") of the dark matter wind by detecting the scintillation light created by the elastic nuclear recoils in the scattering of dark matter particles with the detector material. The technique is demonstrated by tagging the direction of the nuclear recoils created in the scattering of low-energy neutrons with CF4 in a low-pressure time-projection chamber that is developed by the DMTPC collaboration. The measurement of the decreasing ionization rate along the recoil trajectory provides the direction tag of the incoming neutrons, and proves that the "head-tail" effect can be observed. © 2007 Elsevier B.V.
