The Superhilac Upgrade Project

Progress with the Srs Upgrade Project

The project to upgrade the SRS with two more high field insertion devices is now well under way. The 2 T multipole wigglers are scheduled for installation towards the end of 1998, following construction and full magnetic testing presently in progress. Several modifications to the storage ring have already been made including the installation of one of the narrow gap vacuum vessels. Preliminary ...

The VLA Upgrade Project Memo Series Number 3 Comments on the VHF/UHF Expansion Project for theVLA Upgrade

Status of the HADES physics program and the upgrade project

In 2006 the analysis of the C+C data taken at a beam energy of 2 AGeV was finalized and the results for electron pair production published. The data exhibit an extra yield above the contribution expected from hadron decays after freeze-out for invariant masses above Me+e−> 150 MeV/c. A comparison to the DLS data, which was measured in the system C+C at 1.04AGeV, reveals that the yield observed ...

Muon Physics in ALICE: The MFT Upgrade Project

The ALICE experiment is dedicated to the study of the quark gluon plasma in heavy-ion collisions at the CERN LHC. The Muon Forward Tracker (MFT) is under consideration by the ALICE experiment to be part of its program of detectors upgrade to be installed during the LHC Long Shutdown 2 (LS2) planned for 2018. Designed as a silicon pixel detector added in the Muon Spectrometer acceptance (−4.0 < ...

Computational Fluid Dynamics Model for Tacoma Narrows Bridge Upgrade Project

The purpose of this work was to validate and apply a commercial computational fluid dynamics code with a hybrid RANS/LES turbulence computational model for a flow past a bluff body ultimately to help in the design of the caisson anchoring system during construction of a new adjacent span of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge. INTRODUCTION The new Tacoma Narrows Bridge will be designed as a suspension br...
