Tagging system for almost-real photons at VEPP-3 storage ring

At BINP the construction of the tagging system for almost-real photons (TS) is in progress. The energy of tagging photons can be up to 1.5 GeV. The projected energy resolution of TS is better then 1%. For at least a half of photons the linear polarization can be determined. The tagging system will extend the possibilities for photoreaction studying at VEPP-3 significantly. TS would allow to perform a complete kinematics reconstruction, thus permitting a reliable rejection of the background processes; to extend the measurements to higher photon energy; to enabling Σ-asymmetry measurements and double polarization experiments.     

Experiments with internal targets at the VEPP-3 electron storage ring

An overview of the recently completed, current, and planned experiments with internal targets at the VEPP-3 electron-positron storage ring in Novosibirsk is given. The results of the experiment to separately measure the deuteron form factors in elastic ed scattering in the range of momentum transfer Q ² = 8?15 fm^?2 are provided. The results of measuring the tensor analyzing power components of the tensor-polarized deuteron photodisintegration reaction in the range of γ-quantum energies E _γ = 25?600 MeV are presented. The tensor analyzing powers of the coherent photoproduction of a neutral pion on a tensor-polarized deuteron have been measured for the first time. The almost-real photon tagging system being created is discussed. The status of the experiment under way to determine the contribution of two-photon exchange to the elastic ep scattering cross section is described.     

Neutral pion photoproduction on tensor-polarized deuterium on the VEPP-3 storage ring

An experiment to measure component T ₂₀ of the tensor analyzing power for the coherent photo-production of neutral pions on polarized deuterons is described. The measurements cover the photon energies in the ranges E _γ = 200–500 MeV and E _γ = 300–600 MeV, and the emission angles of neutral pions in the ranges = \(\theta _{\pi ^0 }^{c.m.} \) = 100°–140° and = \(\theta _{\pi ^0 }^{c.m.} \) = 60°–65°, respectively. The experiment uses a hyperfine internal gas polarized target. Detectors of neutral pions and deuterons register these particles in coincidence. The target’s degree of polarization and luminosity is measured by detecting elastic electron-deuteron scattering at low momentum transfer. A selection of the preliminary results is presented.

Calculation of the intensity of Touschek electrons in the VEPP-4M storage ring

Formulas for calculating the intensity of intrabeam scattering of electrons in the Born approximation for the one- and two-dimensional collision models have been obtained for the nonrelativistic and relativistic cases. The Baier-Katkov-Strakhovenko two-dimensional relativistic model with Coulomb corrections has been analyzed. Formulas in the ultrarelativistic limit have been obtained using this model. Different models have been compared. The intensities of Touschek electrons and the polarization contribution have been calculated under the conditions of the detection of scattered particles at the VEPP-4M storage ring. The calculations have been compared to experimental data.     

Coherent THz synchrotron radiation from a storage ring with high-frequency RF system

The generation of brilliant, stable, and broadband coherent synchrotron radiation (CSR) in electron storage rings depends strongly on ring rf system properties such as frequency and gap voltage. We have observed intense coherent radiation at frequencies approaching the THz regime produced by the MIT-Bates South Hall Ring, which employs a high-frequency S-band rf system. The measured CSR spectral intensity enhancement with 2 mA stored current was up to 10,000 times above background for wave numbers near 3 cm(-1). The measurements also uncovered strong beam instabilities that must be suppressed if such a very high rf frequency electron storage ring is to become a viable coherent THz source.     

Production of intense positron beams at the VEPP-5 injection complex

A source of positrons allowing 5 × 10⁸ positrons accelerated to the energy of 70 MeV to be produced per pulse has been developed. The process of electron-positron pair production in an electromagnetic shower is used for production of positrons. The electromagnetic shower is generated in a tantalum target by a beam of 2 × 10¹⁰ electrons with energy 270 MeV. A high efficiency of positron collection (positron yield Y ≈ 0.1 GeV^?1) is ensured by a unique design of the matching device.

Combining the features of synchrotron radiation (low angular divergence and continuous spectrum, natural polarization, and high intensity) with the use of modern X-ray optics (polycapillary lenses) and registering devices results in a new quality of analysis: measuring picogram concentrations of a broad set of elements with micron spatial resolution. Using a dedicated experimental station and developed methodologies, numerous scanning microanalyses of bottom sediments is performed to obtain a time series of geochemical indicators of paleoclimate in the Central Asian region.

Stable RF transfer over a fiber-optic ring with DSBCS modulation and a DSB RF signal

We propose a radio frequency(RF)transfer technique with passive phase noise compensation over a fiber-optic ring.By adopting different frequencies and same wavelength transmission and double sideband(DSB)with carrier suppression(DSBCS)modulation,the impact of backscattering can be effectively suppressed.A stable RF signal can be obtained via frequency mixing at an arbitrary access site along the fiber-optic ring.As the two directional transmissions adopt the same fiber and same wavelength from the same laser,the bidirectional propagation symmetry can be maximally guaranteed.We experimentally demonstrate 2 GHz RF signal transfer along a 100 km standard single-mode fiber-optic ring.     

Thermoelastic damping effect on in-extensional vibration of rotating thin ring

Sensitive devices such as resonant sensors and radio frequency micro-electro-mechanical system (RF-MEMS) filters etc., require high Quality factors (Q-factors) defined as the ratio of total system energy to dissipation that occurs due to various damping mechanisms. Also, thermoelastic damping is considered to be one of the most important factors to elicit energy dissipation due to the irreversible heat flow of oscillating structures in the micro scales. In this study, the Q-factor for thermoelastic damping is investigated in rotating thin rings with in-plane vibration. First, in order to obtain the temperature profile of the model, a heat conduction equation for the thermal flow across the radial direction is solved based on the bending approximation so-called in-extensional approximation of the ring. Using the temperature distribution coupled with a displacement, a governing equation of the ring model can then be derived. Eventually, an eigen-value analysis is performed to obtain the natural frequency of rotating thin rings, and the analytical and numerical values of Q-factors can then be determined by the definition. Furthermore, the effects of rotating speed, dimensions of the ring, mode numbers and ambient temperatures on the Q-factor are discussed in detail.
