At high density, diquarks could condense in the vacuum with the QCD color spontaneously broken. Based on the observation that the symmetry breaking pattern involved in this phenomenon is essentially the same as that of the Pati-Salam model with broken electroweak–color SU(3) group, we determine the relevant electroweak interactions in the color-flavor locked (CFL) phase in high density QCD. We ...

A. 3-Amino-3-(hydroxymethyl)-1,5-dioxaspiro[5.5]undecane. A 1-L singlenecked, round-bottomed flask is equipped with an egg-shaped, Teflon®coated magnetic stirring bar (3.5 cm x 1.5 cm), capped with a rubber septum, flame-dried under vacuum, and cooled under an argon atmosphere (Note 1). After cooling to ambient temperature (21–23 °C), to the flask is added anhydrous N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF, ...

We report graphene films composed mostly of one or two layers of graphene grown by controlled carbon precipitation on the surface of polycrystalline Ni thin films during atmospheric chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Controlling both the methane concentration during CVD and the substrate cooling rate during graphene growth can significantly improve the thickness uniformity. As a result, oneor two...

A beam-tracking simulation has been done for study of the electron-cooling bunching of ion beams around a few hundred MeV/u. In the simulation, the field due to the space charge of a beam in a round vacuum chamber is calculated from the charge distribution of macro-particles and the image particles due to the macro-particles. The simulation results show that the bunched beams meet a transverse ...

Producing cost-competitive small and medium-sized solar cooling systems is currently a significant challenge. Due to system complexity, extensive engineering, design and equipment costs; the installation costs of solar thermal cooling systems are prohibitively high. In efforts to overcome these limitations, a novel sorption heat pump module has been developed and directly integrated into a sola...

The SU(2) gluonic correlation functions, glueball effective masses in the J = 0, 2 and 0− channels were calculated from the lattice classical gauge configurations which were obtained by smoothing the thermal gauge configurations through the improved cooling method. The instanton-induced attractive force in the 0 channel and the repulsive force in the 0− channel are confirmed in the Monte Carlo ...

Institut für Kernphysik, Goethe-Universität, Frankfurt am Main For the design of the Micro Vertex Detector (MVD) for the CBM experiment we are following two approaches. The first approach uses advanced technologies regarding sensor integration and interconnections. The second one is a more conventional approach with well definded building blocks (sensor, carrier, cooling, read-out cables, FEE),...
