- The WASA 4 pi multidetector system, aimed at investigating light meson production in light ion collisions and eta meson rare decays at the CELSIUS storage ring in Uppsala is presented. A unique feature of the system is the use of hydrogen pellets as internal targets for the first time. A detailed description of the design, together with the anticipated and achieved performance parameters are given. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Background: The menstrual cycle and its impact on training and performance are of growing interest. However, evidence is lacking whether periodized exercise based on the menstrual cycle is beneficial. The primary purpose of this proposed randomized, controlled trial, the IMPACT study, is to evaluate the effect of exercise periodization during different phases of the menstrual cycle, i.e., comparing follicular phase-based and luteal phase-based training with regular training during the menstrual cycle on physical performance in well-trained women.Methods: Healthy, well-trained, eumenorrheic women between 18 and 35 years (n = 120) will be recruited and first assessed for physical performance during a run-in menstrual cycle at different cycle phases and then randomized to three different interventions: follicular phase-based training, luteal phase-based training, or regular training during three menstrual cycles. The training intervention will consist of high-intensity spinning classes followed by strength training. The menstrual cycle phases will be determined by serum hormone analysis throughout the intervention period. Assessment of aerobic performance (primary outcome) and muscle strength, body composition, and blood markers will be performed at baseline and at the end of the intervention.Discussion: With a robust methodology, this study has the potential to provide evidence of the differential effects of exercise periodization during different phases of the menstrual cycle in female athletes.Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT05697263 .

Tracked pellets - a way to improve the efficiency of charmonium studies

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We investigate the possibility of tracking individual hydrogen micro-spheres from an internal pellet target. Such a method aims to provide the primary vertex of a reaction to within about 100 mu m, without utilizing any detector response. Apart from background considerations the knowledge of the reaction vertex may be essential for the reconstruction of many physics channels. This is in particular true for the study of the Psi(3770) decay into D-mesons planned at the PANDA detector at the future FAIR facility. Here, the reconstruction of displaced vertices is especially difficult since neutral particles are involved.Studies with a pellet target at The Svedberg Laboratory, Uppsala, show the technical feasibility of a tracking system utilizing fast CCD line-scan cameras. Simulations for the reaction pp -> Psi(3770) -> D+D- prove the large impact such a system would have on the data taking and reconstruction at PANDA.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Frozen microspheres of hydrogen (pellets) will be one of the target types for the future hadron physics experiment PANDA at FAIR (GSI, Darmstadt, Germany) [1]. Pellets with a diameter of 25- mum are generated about 3 meters above the interaction region, to which they travel with a velocity around 80 m/s inside a narrow pipe. The interaction region is defined by the overlap of the pellet stream and the accelerator beam and has a size of a few millimeters. One would like to know the interaction point more precisely, to have better possibilities to reconstruct particle tracks and events e.g. in charmonium decay studies. One would also like to suppress background events that do not originate in a pellet, but e.g. may occur in rest gas, that is present in the beam pipe. A solution is provided by the presented pellet tracking system together with a target operation mode that provides one and only one pellet in the interaction region most of the time. The goal is to track individual pellets in order to know their position with a resolution of a few tenths of a millimeter at the time of an interaction. The system must also be highly efficient and provide tracking information for essentially all pellets that pass the interaction region. Presented results from the design studies show that the goals can be fulfilled by this solution.
