... Laboratory. He worked on both the 1 MV and 5.5 MV Van de Graaff accelerators at UVa for a number of years. After hearing the legendary Jesse Beams give a talk in 1973 about his gravitation research, Ritter made some suggestions, and Beams, knowing that he would retire soon, encouraged Ritter to join ...

Study of baryonic matter with the BM@N
... Calorimeter (ZDC) is designed for the analysis of the collision centrality by measuring the energy of forward going particles. The T0 detector, partially covering the backward hemisphere around the target, is planned to trigger central heavy ion collisions and provide a start T0 signal for the mRPC- ...

Reevaluation of dark matter direct detection rate
... If lifetime of the charge-conserving vacuum is longer than age of the universe, the vacuum is acceptable. We estimate the lifetime by evaluating the bounce solution numerically. (JH and Sugiyama) ...

... The weak equivalence principle, also known as the universality of free fall or the Galilean equivalence principle can be stated in many ways. The strong EP includes (astronomic) bodies with gravitational binding energy (e.g., 1.74 solar-mass pulsar PSR J1903+0327, 15.3% of whose separated mass is ab ...

... Armed with the Rutherford model of the atom, one can calculate the scattering rate as a function of angle from the Coulomb scattering of the α-particle off a gold nucleus (i.e. the scattering of 2 charged particles using electromagnetism). The derivation of the Rutherford Scattering formulae will no ...

Uranium-238 Decay Series
... 1. Alpha emission- expel a positive alpha particle (2p+2N): lose two protons and two neutrons. The atomic number drops by two, but the mass drops by 4. 2. Beta emissions (β or an electron) - expel a negative beta particle caused by the conversion of a neutron to a proton +β particle: gain one proton ...
