Abstract: Large area triple GEM chambers will be employed in the first two stations of the MuCh system of the CBM experiment at the upcoming Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research FAIR in Darmstadt/Germany. The GEM detectors have been designed to take data at an unprecedented interaction rate (up to 10 MHz) in nucleus-nucleus collisions in CBM at FAIR. Real-size trapezoidal modules have been installed in the mCBM experiment and tested in nucleus-nucleus collisions at the SIS18 beamline of GSI as a part of the FAIR Phase-0 program. In this report, we discuss the design, installation, commissioning, and response of these GEM modules in detail. The response has been studied using the free-streaming readout electronics designed for the CBM-MuCh and CBM-STS detector system. In free-streaming data, the first attempt on an event building based on the timestamps of hits has been carried out, resulting in the observation of clear spatial correlations between the GEM modules in the mCBM setup for the first time. Accordingly, a time resolution of $\sim$15\,ns have been obtained for the GEM detectors.

2. Staphylococcus pseudintermedius: an undocumented, emerging pathogen in humans

Author: Bhooshan, S, Negi, V, Khatri, PK, Bhooshan, S, Negi, V, and Khatri, PK
Abstract: The first infections of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus pseudintermedius in humans were recorded in 2006, and is now becoming a concern because of its close similarities to human pathogens in the Staphylococcus intermedius group (SIG). These bacteria have all the properties which a multidrug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus possesses. The literature was searched using the term "Staphylococcus pseudintermedius " in PubMed and other reference databases. The virulence factor and the pathogenicity are under investigation, but reports have suggested that this commensal of animals is transmitted easily via close contact to animals by owners, veterinarians and staff. Resistance to beta-lactams (including methicillin) is a primary concern. Drug resistance to methicillin is a considerable problem in developing countries, as antibiotic use is not regulated. Studies from Europe have reported multidrug resistant isolates from clinical specimens. Although data on drug resistance and pathogenesis of S. pseudintermedius are not sufficient, it is extremely important to identify the pathogen correctly. Only then can its pathogenesis be studied during the course of disease and appropriate measures developed to prevent it becoming a global problem., Der Methicillin resistente Staphylococcus pseudintermedius , über den Infektionen beim Menschen erstmalig 2006 berichtet wurden, gibt wegen der großen Ähnlichkeit zu humanpathogenen Krankheitserregern aus der Staphylococcus intermedius Gruppe (SIG) Anlass zur Besorgnis. Das Bakterium hat alle Eigenschaften eines multiresistenten Staphylococcus aureus . Die Literatur wurde mit dem Begriff "Staphylococcus pseudintermedius " mit der PubMed-Literaturrecherche und anderen Datenbanken durchgeführt. Derzeit werden der Virulenzfaktor und die Pathogenität untersucht. Aus Berichten geht hervor, dass der Kommensale von Tieren durch engen Kontakt auf Halter, Tierärzte und deren Personal leicht übertragen wird. Die Resistenz gegenüber Beta-Laktamen, zu denen auch Methicillin gehört, ist ein Problem. Die Resistenz gegen Methicillin ist vor allem in den Entwicklungsländern ein Problem, in denen der Einsatz von Antibiotika nicht reguliert ist. Studien aus Europa haben über Isolate mit Mehrfachresistenz aus klinischen Proben berichtet. Obwohl es noch keine ausreichenden Daten über Antibiotikaresistenz und Pathogenese gibt, ist es äußerst wichtig, den Erreger korrekt zu identifizieren, damit die Pathogenese im Krankheitsverlauf untersucht werden kann, bevor sich ein weltweites Problem entwickelt.

Abstract: Substantial experimental and theoretical efforts worldwide are devoted to explore the phase diagram of strongly interacting matter. At LHC and top RHIC energies, QCD matter is studied at very high temperatures and nearly vanishing net-baryon densities. There is evidence that a Quark-Gluon-Plasma (QGP) was created at experiments at RHIC and LHC. The transition from the QGP back to the hadron gas is found to be a smooth cross over. For larger net-baryon densities and lower temperatures, it is expected that the QCD phase diagram exhibits a rich structure, such as a first-order phase transition between hadronic and partonic matter which terminates in a critical point, or exotic phases like quarkyonic matter. The discovery of these landmarks would be a breakthrough in our understanding of the strong interaction and is therefore in the focus of various high-energy heavy-ion research programs. The Compressed Baryonic Matter (CBM) experiment at FAIR will play a unique role in the exploration of the QCD phase diagram in the region of high net-baryon densities, because it is designed to run at unprecedented interaction rates. High-rate operation is the key prerequisite for high-precision measurements of multi-differential observables and of rare diagnostic probes which are sensitive to the dense phase of the nuclear fireball. The goal of the CBM experiment at SIS100 (sqrt(s_NN) = 2.7 - 4.9 GeV) is to discover fundamental properties of QCD matter: the phase structure at large baryon-chemical potentials (mu_B > 500 MeV), effects of chiral symmetry, and the equation-of-state at high density as it is expected to occur in the core of neutron stars. In this article, we review the motivation for and the physics programme of CBM, including activities before the start of data taking in 2022, in the context of the worldwide efforts to explore high-density QCD matter.

Abstract: Substantial experimental and theoretical efforts worldwide are devoted to explore the phase diagram of strongly interacting matter. At LHC and top RHIC energies, QCD matter is studied at very high temperatures and nearly vanishing net-baryon densities. There is evidence that a Quark-Gluon-Plasma (QGP) was created at experiments at RHIC and LHC. The transition from the QGP back to the hadron gas is found to be a smooth cross over. For larger net-baryon densities and lower temperatures, it is expected that the QCD phase diagram exhibits a rich structure, such as a first-order phase transition between hadronic and partonic matter which terminates in a critical point, or exotic phases like quarkyonic matter. The discovery of these landmarks would be a breakthrough in our understanding of the strong interaction and is therefore in the focus of various high-energy heavy-ion research programs. The Compressed Baryonic Matter (CBM) experiment at FAIR will play a unique role in the exploration of the QCD phase diagram in the region of high net-baryon densities, because it is designed to run at unprecedented interaction rates. High-rate operation is the key prerequisite for high-precision measurements of multi-differential observables and of rare diagnostic probes which are sensitive to the dense phase of the nuclear fireball. The goal of the CBM experiment at SIS100 (sqrt(s_NN) = 2.7 - 4.9 GeV) is to discover fundamental properties of QCD matter: the phase structure at large baryon-chemical potentials (mu_B > 500 MeV), effects of chiral symmetry, and the equation-of-state at high density as it is expected to occur in the core of neutron stars. In this article, we review the motivation for and the physics programme of CBM, including activities before the start of data taking in 2022, in the context of the worldwide efforts to explore high-density QCD matter.

7. Solvent-dependent structure formation in drying P3HT : PCBM films studied by molecular dynamics simulations

Author: Negi, V., Lyulin, A., Bobbert, P.A., Negi, V., Lyulin, A., and Bobbert, P.A.
Abstract: Phase separation in the donor-acceptor blend poly(3-hexylthiophene-2,5-diyl):[6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (P3HT:PCBM) during evaporation of a solvent using coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations is studied here. To this end, an equilibrated P3HT:PCBM:solvent mixture is placed in an elongated simulation box, after which solvent molecules are removed at regular time intervals from a region above the film. Three often-used solvents are considered: chloroform (CFM), chlorobenzene (CLB), and orthodichlorobenzene (oDCB). The coarse-grained solvent–solvent interaction parameters are tuned to reproduce the atmospheric boiling temperatures, while the PCBM–solvent interaction parameters are tuned to reproduce the PCBM solubilities. Other parameters are taken from the literature. During evaporation, the formation of a crust that is depleted of solvent, in which aggregation of P3HT and PCBM occurs, is observed. In agreement with experiment, the top region of the dry film is rich in PCBM for the cases of CLB and oDCB, and rich in P3HT for the case of CFM, while the very top layer of the film is always rich in P3HT. This vertical separation is ascribed to a competition between the tendency of P3HT to move to the surface due to its low surface energy and the different tendencies of PCBM to be dragged along to the surface by the evaporating solvent depending on its solubility. Also in agreement with experiment, the P3HT–PCBM interface area is larger for CLB and oDCB than for CFM. For CLB and oDCB, an indication for a spinodal P3HT–PCBM decomposition starting from the top and bottom surface is found, whereas for CFM the phase separation appears to be initiated in the bulk of the film.

Abstract: The stability of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) helical structure has been investigated in vacuo and in amorphous polymer surrounding via molecular dynamics-based simulations at temperatures below and above the P3HT melting point. The results show that the helical chain remains stable at room temperature both in vacuo and in amorphous surrounding, and promptly loses its structure at elevated temperatures. However, the amorphous surrounding inhibits the destruction of the helix at higher temperatures. In addition, it is shown that the electrostatic interactions do not significantly affect the stability of the helical structure

Abstract: Substantial experimental and theoretical efforts worldwide are devoted to explore the phase diagram of strongly interacting matter. At LHC and top RHIC energies, QCD matter is studied at very high temperatures and nearly vanishing net-baryon densities. There is evidence that a Quark-Gluon-Plasma (QGP) was created at experiments at RHIC and LHC. The transition from the QGP back to the hadron gas is found to be a smooth cross over. For larger net-baryon densities and lower temperatures, it is expected that the QCD phase diagram exhibits a rich structure, such as a first-order phase transition between hadronic and partonic matter which terminates in a critical point, or exotic phases like quarkyonic matter. The discovery of these landmarks would be a breakthrough in our understanding of the strong interaction and is therefore in the focus of various high-energy heavy-ion research programs. The Compressed Baryonic Matter (CBM) experiment at FAIR will play a unique role in the exploration of the QCD phase diagram in the region of high net-baryon densities, because it is designed to run at unprecedented interaction rates. High-rate operation is the key prerequisite for high-precision measurements of multi-differential observables and of rare diagnostic probes which are sensitive to the dense phase of the nuclear fireball. The goal of the CBM experiment at SIS100 (sqrt(s_NN) = 2.7 - 4.9 GeV) is to discover fundamental properties of QCD matter: the phase structure at large baryon-chemical potentials (mu_B > 500 MeV), effects of chiral symmetry, and the equation-of-state at high density as it is expected to occur in the core of neutron stars. In this article, we review the motivation for and the physics programme of CBM, including activities before the start of data taking in 2022, in the context of the worldwide efforts to explore high-density QCD matter.

10. Solvent-dependent structure formation in drying P3HT : PCBM films studied by molecular dynamics simulations

Author: Negi, V., Lyulin, A., Bobbert, P.A., Negi, V., Lyulin, A., and Bobbert, P.A.
Abstract: Phase separation in the donor-acceptor blend poly(3-hexylthiophene-2,5-diyl):[6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (P3HT:PCBM) during evaporation of a solvent using coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations is studied here. To this end, an equilibrated P3HT:PCBM:solvent mixture is placed in an elongated simulation box, after which solvent molecules are removed at regular time intervals from a region above the film. Three often-used solvents are considered: chloroform (CFM), chlorobenzene (CLB), and orthodichlorobenzene (oDCB). The coarse-grained solvent–solvent interaction parameters are tuned to reproduce the atmospheric boiling temperatures, while the PCBM–solvent interaction parameters are tuned to reproduce the PCBM solubilities. Other parameters are taken from the literature. During evaporation, the formation of a crust that is depleted of solvent, in which aggregation of P3HT and PCBM occurs, is observed. In agreement with experiment, the top region of the dry film is rich in PCBM for the cases of CLB and oDCB, and rich in P3HT for the case of CFM, while the very top layer of the film is always rich in P3HT. This vertical separation is ascribed to a competition between the tendency of P3HT to move to the surface due to its low surface energy and the different tendencies of PCBM to be dragged along to the surface by the evaporating solvent depending on its solubility. Also in agreement with experiment, the P3HT–PCBM interface area is larger for CLB and oDCB than for CFM. For CLB and oDCB, an indication for a spinodal P3HT–PCBM decomposition starting from the top and bottom surface is found, whereas for CFM the phase separation appears to be initiated in the bulk of the film.

Abstract: The stability of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) helical structure has been investigated in vacuo and in amorphous polymer surrounding via molecular dynamics-based simulations at temperatures below and above the P3HT melting point. The results show that the helical chain remains stable at room temperature both in vacuo and in amorphous surrounding, and promptly loses its structure at elevated temperatures. However, the amorphous surrounding inhibits the destruction of the helix at higher temperatures. In addition, it is shown that the electrostatic interactions do not significantly affect the stability of the helical structure

Abstract: Substantial experimental and theoretical efforts worldwide are devoted to explore the phase diagram of strongly interacting matter. At LHC and top RHIC energies, QCD matter is studied at very high temperatures and nearly vanishing net-baryon densities. There is evidence that a Quark-Gluon-Plasma (QGP) was created at experiments at RHIC and LHC. The transition from the QGP back to the hadron gas is found to be a smooth cross over. For larger net-baryon densities and lower temperatures, it is expected that the QCD phase diagram exhibits a rich structure, such as a first-order phase transition between hadronic and partonic matter which terminates in a critical point, or exotic phases like quarkyonic matter. The discovery of these landmarks would be a breakthrough in our understanding of the strong interaction and is therefore in the focus of various high-energy heavy-ion research programs. The Compressed Baryonic Matter (CBM) experiment at FAIR will play a unique role in the exploration of the QCD phase diagram in the region of high net-baryon densities, because it is designed to run at unprecedented interaction rates. High-rate operation is the key prerequisite for high-precision measurements of multi-differential observables and of rare diagnostic probes which are sensitive to the dense phase of the nuclear fireball. The goal of the CBM experiment at SIS100 (sqrt(s_NN) = 2.7 - 4.9 GeV) is to discover fundamental properties of QCD matter: the phase structure at large baryon-chemical potentials (mu_B > 500 MeV), effects of chiral symmetry, and the equation-of-state at high density as it is expected to occur in the core of neutron stars. In this article, we review the motivation for and the physics programme of CBM, including activities before the start of data taking in 2022, in the context of the worldwide efforts to explore high-density QCD matter.
