The Belle detector at the KEKB electron-positron collider has collected almost 1 billion Y(4S) events in its decade of operation. Super-KEKB, an upgrade of KEKB is under construction, to increase the luminosity by two orders of magnitude…
Since its commissioning in 1991, the ep collider HERA has been running successfully for almost a decade without stopping improving its performance. In this report, the inclusive cross section and structure function measurements for the deep…
The possibility of using plasma wakefield acceleration to build a very high energy electron-proton (VHEeP) collider at a centre-of-mass energy of 9 TeV was presented at the DIS2015 workshop. In this talk, the physics case was further…
Real-time monitoring of carbon fibre composites during Automated Fibre Placement (AFP) manufacturing remains a challenge for non-destructive evaluation (NDE) techniques. An directional eddy-current (EC) probe with asymmetric transmit and…
This white paper suggests posing a "grand challenge" to the HEP instrumentation community, i.e. the aggressive development of additive manufacturing, also known as 3D-printing, for the production of particle detectors in collaboration with…
We generated an event catalog with an automated detection algorithm based on the entire EUVI image database observed with the two Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory STEREO-A and -B spacecraft over the first six years of the mission…
We highlight the STAR experiment's hard probes results, including jets and heavy flavor production in heavy-ion collisions to study the properties of the quark-gluon plasma. Various jet-substructure observables in proton-proton collisions…
Photographic Nuclear Emulsion Detector (PNED) has been in use in nuclear and particle physics experiments from the begining, often as the major detector system. However, direct measurement of impact parameter in this detector does not seem…
This is my individual contribution to the discussions ongoing on the update of the European Strategy for Particle Physics. After participating in many discussions and contributing to a number of documents being prepared for the ESPP…
Semi-inclusive charged jet spectra per trigger at STAR are presented binned by event activity (EA) as determined by the Beam Beam Counter (BBC) signal in the Au-going direction. The selected EA determination is motivated by correlations…
The key component of the future PANDA experiment at FAIR is a fixed-target detector for collisions of antiprotons with a proton target up to a beam momentum of 15 GeV/c and is designed to address a large number of open questions in the…
The Detector Concept Report (DCR) consists of two parts, one for the physics and the other for ILC detectors. It has been prepared as the accompany document of the ILC Accelerator Reference Design Report. The detector DCR describes ILC…
A detector with a profile-based cathode and a pad-strip cathode readout system is experimentally investigated. Cathode pads arranged along each anode wire are diagonally interconnected and form strips that cross the detector at an angle…
