- Inclusive differential cross sections dsigma(pA)/dx(F) and dsigma(pA)/dp(t)(2) for the production of K-S(0), Lambda, and (&ULambda;) over bar particles are measured at HERA in proton-induced reactions on C, Al, Ti, and W targets. The incident beam energy is 920 GeV, corresponding to roots = 41.6 GeV in the proton-nucleon system. The ratios of differential cross sections dsigma(pA)(K-S(0))/dsigma(pA)(Lambda) and dsigma(pA)((&ULambda;) over bar)/dsigma(pA) (Lambda) are measured to be 6.2 +/- 0.5 and 0.66 +/- 0.07, respectively, for x(F) approximate to -0.06. No significant dependence upon the target material is observed. Within errors, the slopes of the transverse momentum distributions da,Ald t also show no significant dependence upon the target material. The dependence of the extrapolated total cross sections sigma(pA) on the atomic mass A of the target material is discussed, and the deduced cross sections per nucleon sigma(pN) are compared with results obtained at other energies.

Measurement of the b(b)over-bar production cross section in 920 GeV fixed-target proton-nucleus collisions
- 2003

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Using the HERA-B detector, the b (b) over bar production cross section has been measured in 920 GeV proton collisions on carbon and titanium targets. The b (b) over bar production was tagged via inclusive bottom quark decays into J/psi by exploiting the longitudinal separation of J/psi --> l(+)l(-) decay vertices from the primary proton-nucleus interaction. Both e(+)e(-) and mu(+)mu(-) channels have been reconstructed and the combined analysis yields the cross section sigma(b (b) over bar) = 32(-12)(+14)(stat) (+6)(-7)(sys) nb/nucleon.

Phase Behavior and Phase Structure of a Cationic Fluorosurfactant in Water

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The phase behavior of the cationic fluorocarbon surfactant 1,1,2,2-tetrahydroperfluorodecylpyridinium chloride in water has been studied using small-angle X-ray and 2H NMR spectroscopy as the main techniques. The following phase sequence was found: micellar (L1), hexagonal (HI), centered rectangular (R; spacegroup c2mm) and centered trigonal (T, spacegroup Rm) with increasing surfactant concentration. At higher concentrations evidence for random mesh phase and a lamellar phase was found, at high temperatures a bicontinuous cubic phase was found. Compared to a cationic hydrocarbon surfactant of similar hydrophobicity, the occurrence of the intermediate phases is more extensive in the phase diagram, and the fluorocarbon surfactant prefers to form intermediate phases instead of a cubic phase. The surface curvature of the aggregates changes from highly curved cylindrical structures of the hexagonal phase to the planar bilayer structure of the lamellar phase over a sequence of geometries that allow the average of the mean curvature to change gradually as water content is decreased.
