We propose a new class of photonic devices based on periodic stress fields in silicon that enable second-order nonlinearity as well as quasi-phase matching. Periodically-poled silicon (PePSi) adds the periodic poling capability to silicon…
The effects of Scalar Leptoquarks in various channels have been analysed for the HERA collider and also for an eventual new $ep$ machine running at higher energies. We emphasize the relevance of polarized beams.
Multiple polarization observables must be measured to access the amplitude structure of pseudoscalar meson photoproduction off the proton. The hyperon-producing reactions are especially attractive to study, since the weak decays allow…
We investigate the J/psi polarization in photoproduction at the Hadron Electron Ring Accelerator(HERA) up to the next-to-leading order of QCD. The results show that the transverse momentum p_t and energy fraction z distributions of J/psi…
I discuss the impact of color-octet contributions to inclusive $J/\psi$ photoproduction at HERA. Emphasis is put on resolved photon processes and on $J/\psi$ polarization, which will be experimentally accessible at HERA in the near future.…
The HERA experiments have collected interesting luminosity samples with both polarized and unpolarized lepton beams. The polarized CC data are directly sensitive to right handed charged currents. The data are in agreement with the SM…
PYTHIA is a general-purpose event generator for multiparticle production in high-energy physics. After a general introduction and program news survey, some areas of recent physics progress are considered: the matching to matrix elements,…

Despite decades of studies of the photoproduction of hyperons, both their production mechanisms and their spectra of excited states are still largely unknown. While the parity-violating weak decay of hyperons offers a means of measuring…
A new transversely polarised frozen spin target has been developed at MAMI which will be used in conjunction with the photon tagger and the Crystal Ball detector. The new target permits a major new programme of accurate measurement of…
