DAMPE silicon tracker on-board data compression algorithm

The Dark Matter Particle Explorer(DAMPE) is an upcoming scientific satellite mission for high energy gamma-ray, electron and cosmic ray detection. The silicon tracker(STK) is a subdetector of the DAMPE payload.It has excellent position resolution(readout pitch of 242 μm), and measures the incident direction of particles as well as charge. The STK consists of 12 layers of Silicon Micro-strip Detector(SMD), equivalent to a total silicon area of6.5 m2. The total number of readout channels of the STK is 73728, which leads to a huge amount of raw data to be processed. In this paper, we focus on the on-board data compression algorithm and procedure in the STK, and show the results of initial verification by cosmic-ray measurements.     

Structure and Action Mechanism of Ligninolytic Enzymes

Lignin is the most abundant renewable source of aromatic polymer in nature, and its decomposition is indispensable for carbon recycling. It is chemically recalcitrant to breakdown by most organisms because of the complex, heterogeneous structure. The white-rot fungi produce an array of extracellular oxidative enzymes that synergistically and efficiently degrade lignin. The major groups of ligninolytic enzymes include lignin peroxidases, manganese peroxidases, versatile peroxidases, and laccases. The peroxidases are heme-containing enzymes with catalytic cycles that involve the activation by H₂O₂ and substrate reduction of compound I and compound II intermediates. Lignin peroxidases have the unique ability to catalyze oxidative cleavage of C–C bonds and ether (C–O–C) bonds in non-phenolic aromatic substrates of high redox potential. Manganese peroxidases oxidize Mn(II) to Mn(III), which facilitates the degradation of phenolic compounds or, in turn, oxidizes a second mediator for the breakdown of non-phenolic compounds. Versatile peroxidases are hybrids of lignin peroxidase and manganese peroxidase with a bifunctional characteristic. Laccases are multi-copper-containing proteins that catalyze the oxidation of phenolic substrates with concomitant reduction of molecular oxygen to water. This review covers the chemical nature of lignin substrates and focuses on the biochemical properties, molecular structures, reaction mechanisms, and related structures/functions of these enzymes.

Approximate wø ∽ Ωø Relations in Quintessence Models

Quintessence field is a widely-studied candidate of dark energy. There is ``tracker solution' in quintessence models, in which evolution of the field ø at present times is not sensitive to its initial conditions. When the energy density of dark energy is neglectable (Ω<sub>ø</sub><< 1), evolution of the tracker solutioncan be well analysed from ``tracker equation'. In this paper, we try tostudy evolution of the quintessence field from ``full tracker equation',which is valid for all spans of Ω<sub>ø.</sub> We get stable fixed points of w<sub>ø</sub> and Ω<sub>ø</sub> (noted as \hat{w}<sub>ø</sub> and \hat{Ω}<sub>ø</sub>) from the ``full tracker equation', i.e., w_ø and Ω_ø will always approach \hat{w}_ø and \hat{Ω}_ø respectively. Since \hat{w}_ø and \hat{Ω}_ø are analytic functions of ø, analytic relation of \hat{w}_ø ~ \hat{Ω}_ø can be obtained, which is a good approximation for the w_ø ~ Ω_ø relation and can be obtained for the most type of quintessence potentials. By using this approximation, we find that inequalities \hat{w}_ø < w_ø and \hat{Ω}_ø < Ω_ø are statisfied if the w_ø (or \hat{w}_ø) decreases with time. In this way, the potential U(ø) can be constrained directly from observations, by no need of solving the equations of motion numerically.     

Fluorinated molecules relevant to conducting polymer research

The synthesis of versatile fluorine compounds for conducting polymer research on fluorinated materials is presented. 1,2,4,5-Tetrafluorobenzene was converted to 1,2,4,5-tetrafluorobenzaldehyde (1) and protected as an acetal. This gave the acetals 1,2,4,5-tetrafluoro-3-(1,3-dioxol-2-yl)benzene (2a) and 1,2,4,5-tetrafluoro-3-(5,5-dimethyl-1,3-dioxan-2-yl)benzene (2b). Compounds 2a and 2b were converted into the semiprotected 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoroterephthaldehydes: 1,2,4,5-tetrafluoro-3-(1,3-dioxol-2-yl)-6-formylbenzene (3a) and 1,2,4,5-tetrafluoro-3-(5,5-dimethyl-1,3-dioxan-2-yl)-6-formylbenzene (3b). While 3a was easily deprotected to give 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoroterephthaldehyde (4) compound 3b proved very resilient to hydrolysis and gave a 1:1 mixture of 4 and 1,2,4,5-tetrafluoro-3,6-bis(5,5-dimethyl-1,3-dioxan-2-yl)benzene (5). Compound 4 was reduced to 1,2,4,5-tetrafluoro-3,6-dihydroxymethylbenzene (6) and converted into 1,2,4,5-tetrafluoro-3,6-dibromomethylbenzene (7). Compound 7 was finally converted into 1,2,4,5-tetrafluoro-3,6-bis(diethylphosponylmethyl)benzene (8). Compounds 4 and 8 are versatile fluorinated molecules that can be used to replace their hydrogen counterparts in many molecules and materials. To illustrate this compounds 4 and 8 were oligomerised to give partially fluorinated polyphenylenevinylene (9).     

Development and testing of novel stripixel detectors for the silicon vertex tracker at PHENIX

As a part of the upgrades for the PHENIX detector at RHIC,a silicon vertex tracking detector is planned. This detector will consist of two pixel layers followed by two strip-pixel layers in the barrel region,an d four mini-strip layers in the endcap region. As a part of the development phase of the vertex detector, we have set up three sensor testing facilities at Brookhaven National Laboratory, at State University of New York, Stonybrook, and at University of New Mexico to characterize the preproduction sensors, and develop our testing and quality assurance plans. Preliminary results from these test are presented here. Presented in the Poster Session “Future Experiments and Facilities” at the 18th International Conference “Quark Matter 2005”, Budapest, Hungary, 4–9 August 2005.
