Feasibility of a Next Generation Underground Water Cherenkov Detector: UNO

The feasibility of a next generation underground water Cherenkov detector is examined and a conceptual design (UNO) is presented. The design has a linear detector configuration with a total volume of 650 kton which is 13 times the total volume of the Super-Kamiokande detector. It corresponds to a 20 times increase in fiducial volume for physics analyses. The physics goals of UNO are to increase...

The CLEO-c research program will include studies of leptonic, semileptonic and hadronic charm decays, searches for exotic and gluonic matter, and test for physics beyond the Standard Model. The experiment and the CESR accelerator were modified to efficiently operate at center-of-mass energies between 3 and 5 GeV. Data at the ψ(3770) resonance were recorded with the CLEO-c detector in September ...

A low-energy γγ collider has been discussed in the context of a testbed for a γγ interaction region at the Next Linear Collider (NLC). We consider the production of heavy mesons at such a testbed using Compton-backscattered photons and demonstrate that their production rivals or exceeds those by BELLE, BABAR or LEP where they are produced indirectly via virtual γγ luminosities.
