In parallel to charm hadroproduction the experiment Selex (E781) at Fermilab is pursuing a rich hyperon physics program. Selex employs a 600 GeV/c beam consisting of 50 % Σ− and π− each. The three-stage magnetic spectrometer covering 0.1 ≤ xF ≤ 1.0 features a high-precision silicon vertex system, broad-coverage particle identification using TRD and RICH, and a three-stage lead glass photon calo...
متن کاملThe SELEX Phototube RICH Detector
In this article, construction, operation, and performance of the RICH detector of Fermilab experiment 781 (SELEX) are described. The detector utilizes a matrix of 2848 phototubes for the photocathode to detect Cherenkov photons generated in a 10m Neon radiator. For the central region an N0 of 104 cm , corresponding to 13.6 hits on a β = 1 ring, was obtained. The ring radius resolution measured ...
متن کاملA comparative analysis of transcription factor binding models learned from PBM, HT-SELEX and ChIP data
Understanding gene regulation is a key challenge in today's biology. The new technologies of protein-binding microarrays (PBMs) and high-throughput SELEX (HT-SELEX) allow measurement of the binding intensities of one transcription factor (TF) to numerous synthetic double-stranded DNA sequences in a single experiment. Recently, Jolma et al. reported the results of 547 HT-SELEX experiments coveri...
متن کاملCharm hadroproduction results from Selex The SELEX Collaboration
The SELEX experiment (E781) is 3-stage magnetic spectrometer for a high statistics study of hadroproduction of charm baryons out to large xF using 650 Gev Σ , π and p beams. The main features of the spectrometer are: a high precision silicon vertex system, powerful particle identification provided by TRD and RICH, forward Λs decay spectrometer and 3-stage lead glass photon detector. An experime...
متن کاملRAPID-SELEX for RNA Aptamers
Aptamers are high-affinity ligands selected from DNA or RNA libraries via SELEX, a repetitive in vitro process of sequential selection and amplification steps. RNA SELEX is more complicated than DNA SELEX because of the additional transcription and reverse transcription steps. Here, we report a new selection scheme, RAPID-SELEX (RNA Aptamer Isolation via Dual-cycles SELEX), that simplifies this...
