Abstract: We found 140 neutrino-induced muons in 854.24 live days in the MINOS far detector. We looked for evidence of neutrino disappearance in this data set by computing the ratio of the number of low momentum muons to the sum of the number of high momentum and unknown momentum muons for both data and Monte Carlo expectation in the absence of neutrino oscillations. The ratio of data and Monte Carlo ratios is consistent with an oscillation signal. A fit to the data for the oscillation parameters excludes the null oscillation hypothesis at the 94% confidence level. We separated the muons by charge sign in both the data and Monte Carlo events and found the ratio of the total number of negative to positive muons in both samples. The ratio of those ratios is a test of CPT conservation. The result is consistent with CPT conservation., 14 pages, 15 figures

Abstract: The feasibility of using the lunar orbital radio detector to detect radio signals from cascades initiated by ultra-high-energy cosmic rays interacting with the lunar regolith is studied. Simulation by the Monte Carlo method demonstrates that, with the regolith thickness randomly distributed in the range 2–12 m, the detection of radio signals reflected from the lower boundary of the regolith (for particle energies W ≥ 1020 eV) increases the number of valid events severalfold. The additional contribution due to the reflected radio-frequency radiation greatly enhances the scientific potential of experiments with the lunar orbital radio detector.

Abstract: A hybrid method for detecting cosmic rays and neutrino cascades using the radio method and the conventional method for detecting cascade particles was proposed. Cascades produced in the lunar soil near the surface by ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays and neutrinos in the energy range of 1 GeV–100 TeV, coming from above at different angles, were calculated. The calculated energy and angular distributions were extrapolated to the energy region of 1020 eV. Using these results, the detection threshold was estimated as 1020 eV which is approximately identical to the threshold for the radio detector previously considered by the authors.

Abstract: Problems of dark matter (DM) particle detection are briefly reviewed. An original two-channel scheme for direct detection of cosmic DM particles is proposed. This scheme is based on a superlow-temperature calorimeter which includes a nuclear spin system whose magnetic response is measured by a quantum interferometer (SQUID). Low threshold and the capability for efficiently suppressing the recoil-electron background are the most important advantages of the proposed scheme. They make it possible to detect DM particles in the range of extremely low recoil energies and carry out direct DM search with high sensitivity.

Abstract: The previously proposed idea about the possible role of neutrons released during the supernova (SN) outburst as a source of polarized electrons causing chiral asymmetry of organic molecules in interstellar gas—dust clouds is developed. A specific physical mechanism of removal of a large number of free neutrons beyond the dense SN shell via the relativistic neutron fireball with a Lorentz factor on the order of 100 is considered. Estimations show high efficiency of the chiral effect of electrons from the SN in the mechanism under consideration.

Abstract: We elaborate on a previously proposed idea that polarized electrons produced from neutrons, released in a supernova (SN) explosion, can cause chiral dissymmetry of molecules in interstellar gas-dust clouds. A specific physical mechanism of a relativistic neutron fireball with Lorentz factor of the order of 100 is assumed for propelling a great number of free neutrons outside the dense SN shell. A relativistic chiral electron-proton plasma, produced from neutron decays, is slowed down owing to collective effects in the interstellar plasma. As collective effects do not involve the particle spin, the electrons can carry their helicities to the cloud. The estimates show high chiral efficiency of such electrons. In addition to this mechanism, production of circularly polarized ultraviolet photons through polarized-electron bremsstrahlung at an early stage of the fireball evolution is considered. It is shown that these photons can escape from the fireball plasma. However, for an average density of neutrals in the interstellar medium of the order of 0.2 cm(-3) and at distances of the order of 10 pc from the SN, these photons will be absorbed with a factor of about 10(-7) due to the photoeffect. In this case, their chiral efficiency will be about five orders of magnitude less than that for polarized electrons.

Abstract: An estimate of the feasibility of the ultrahigh-energy cosmic ray and neutrino detection using a lunar satellite-borne radio receiver is presented. The data obtained in the proposed experiment will make resolving the current contradictions in the ultrahigh-energy cosmic ray spectra measured with the major ground-based instruments possible. Moreover, they will enable us to considerably extend the accessible energy range and to check predictions of various models of the origin of the highest-energy particles in the Universe. At the same time the lunar radio detector provides a means of searching for ultrahigh-energy neutrinos with a high sensitivity combined with a very large target effective mass.

The scientific potential of this new technology is estimated for a reasonable configuration of experiment by analytic modeling. It is shown that such radio wave experiment can be competitive with modern projects in this field. The simplest technically realizable architecture for the first generation of the LORD instrument, disposed on a standard lunar space platform designed by Lavochkin association, is elaborated. A Monte Carlo simulation is performed, including effects associated with the finite depth of the regolith layer. The signature of the cascade signal is different from the background, and discrimination between CR and neutrino cascades might be possible.

Abstract: We develop the idea, proposed earlier, of a possible role of neutrons, released in a supernova (SN) explosion, as a source of polarized electrons that cause chiral asymmetry of organic molecules in interstellar gas-dust clouds. The neutrons are carried away from the dense SN shell by a relativistic neutron fireball with Lorentz factor γ of order 100. At the early stage of this carrying away, the ejected polarized electrons generate circularly polarized photons as a result of bremsstrahlung in the fireball plasma. The photons of energy near 5 eV in the ultraviolet part of the spectrum show a high efficiency of the chiral effect. In the favorable case of low absorption in the interstellar medium this mechanism may appear to be more (by two orders of magnitude) efficient than the chiral effect of the polarized electrons from the same fireball.

Abstract: We briefly summarize the reported anomalous effects in deuterated metals at ambient temperature, commonly known as "Cold Fusion" (CF), with an emphasis on important experiments as well as the theoretical basis for the opposition to interpreting them as cold fusion. Then we critically examine more than 25 theoretical models for CF, including unusual nuclear and exotic chemical hypotheses. We conclude that they do not explain the data.

Abstract: The energy dependence of the neutrino-iron and antineutrino-iron inclusive charged-current cross sections and their ratio have been measured using a high-statistics sample with the MINOS Near Detector exposed to the NuMI beam from the Main Injector at Fermilab. Neutrino and antineutrino fluxes were determined using a low hadronic energy subsample of charged-current events. We report measurements of neutrino-Fe (antineutrinoFe) cross section in the energy range 3-50 GeV (5-50 GeV) with precision of 2-8% (3-9%) and their ratio which is measured with precision 2-8%. The data set spans the region from low energy, where accurate measurements are sparse, up to the high-energy scaling region where the cross section is well understood., accepted by PRD

Abstract: The temperature of the upper atmosphere affects the height of primary cosmic ray interactions and the production of high-energy cosmic ray muons which can be detected deep underground. The MINOS far detector at Soudan MN, USA, has collected over 67 million cosmic ray induced muons. The underground muon rate measured over a period of five years exhibits a 4% peak-to-peak seasonal variation which is highly correlated with the temperature in the upper atmosphere. The coefficient, $\alpha_T$, relating changes in the muon rate to changes in atmospheric temperature was found to be: $\alpha_T = 0.874 \pm 0.009$ (stat.) $\pm 0.010$ (syst.). Pions and kaons in the primary hadronic interactions of cosmic rays in the atmosphere contribute differently to $\alpha_T$ due to the different masses and lifetimes. This allows the measured value of $\alpha_T$ to be interpreted as a measurement of the K/$\pi$ ratio for $E_{p}\gtrsim$\unit[7]{TeV} of $0.13 \pm 0.08$, consistent with the expectation from collider experiments., Comment: 8 pages, 9 figures, accepted for publication in Phys.

Abstract: This letter reports on a search for $\nu_\mu \to \nu_e$ transitions by the MINOS experiment based on a \unit[$3.14\times10^{20}$]{protons-on-target} exposure in the Fermilab NuMI beam. We observe 35 events in the Far Detector with a background of $27\pm 5 {\rm (stat.)} \pm 2 {\rm (syst.)$ events predicted by the measurements in the Near Detector. If interpreted in terms of $\nu_\mu \to \nu_e$ oscillations, this 1.5 $\sigma$ excess of events is consistent with $\sin^{2}(2\theta_{13})$ comparable to the CHOOZ limit when $|\delmsq{}|$=\unit[2.43$\times 10^{-3}$] {${\rm eV^{2}}$} and \sinsq{23}=1.0 are assumed., Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures, submitted to Phys.

Abstract: We report the first detailed comparisons of the rates and spectra of neutral-current neutrino interactions at two widely separated locations. A depletion in the rate at the far site would indicate mixing between muon neutirnos and a sterile particle. No anomalous depletion in the reconstructed energy spectrum is observed. Assuming oscillations occur at a single mass-squared splitting, a fit to the neutral- and charged-current energy spectra limits the fraction of muon neutrino oscillating to a sterile neutrino to be below 0.68 at 90% confidence level. A less stringent limit due to a possible contribution to the measured neutral-current event rate at the far site from electron neutrino appearance at the current experimental limit is also presented., Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures

Abstract: The Main Injector Neutrino Oscillation Search (MINOS) experiment uses an accelerator-produced neutrino beam to perform precision measurements of the neutrino oscillation parameters in the "atmospheric neutrino" sector associated with muon neutrino disappearance. This long-baseline experiment measures neutrino interactions in Fermilab's NuMI neutrino beam with a near detector at Fermilab and again 735 km downstream with a far detector in the Soudan Underground Laboratory in northern Minnesota. The two detectors are magnetized steel-scintillator tracking calorimeters. They are designed to be as similar as possible in order to ensure that differences in detector response have minimal impact on the comparisons of event rates, energy spectra and topologies that are essential to MINOS measurements of oscillation parameters. The design, construction, calibration and performance of the far and near detectors are described in this paper., Comment: Revised according to referee's comments. 91 pages, 43 figures, submitted to NIM. arXiv figures are greatly compressed, please see NIM itself or the Fermilab library server for full resolution figures

Abstract: This letter reports new results from the MINOS experiment based on a two-year exposure to muon neutrinos from the Fermilab NuMI beam. Our data are consistent with quantum mechanical oscillations of neutrino flavor with mass splitting $|\Delta m^2|=(2.43\pm 0.13)\times10^{-3}$ eV$^2$ (68% confidence level) and mixing angle $\sin^2(2\theta)>0.90$ (90% confidence level). Our data disfavor two alternative explanations for the disappearance of neutrinos in flight, namely neutrino decays into lighter particles and quantum decoherence of neutrinos, at the 3.7 and 5.7 standard deviation levels, respectively., Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures, submitted to Phys.

Abstract: We report the results of a search for muon-neutrino disappearance by the Main Injector Neutrino Oscillation Search. The experiment uses two detectors separated by 734 km to observe a beam of neutrinos created by the Neutrinos at the Main Injector facility at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. The data were collected in the first 282 days of beam operations and correspond to an exposure of 1.27e20 protons on target. Based on measurements in the Near Detector, in the absence of neutrino oscillations we expected 336 +/- 14 muon-neutrino charged-current interactions at the Far Detector but observed 215. This deficit of events corresponds to a significance of 5.2 standard deviations. The deficit is energy dependent and is consistent with two-flavor neutrino oscillations according to delta m-squared = 2.74e-3 +0.44/-0.26e-3 eV^2 and sin^2(2 theta) > 0.87 at 68% confidence level., In submission to Phys.

Abstract: The 5.4 kton MINOS far detector has been taking charge-separated cosmic ray muon data since the beginning of August, 2003 at a depth of 207 m.w.e. in the Soudan Underground Laboratory, Minnesota, USA. The data with both forward and reversed magnetic field running configurations were combined to minimize systematic errors in the determination of the underground muon charge ratio. When averaged, two independent analyses find the charge ratio underground to be Nμ+/Nμ-=1.374±0.004(stat)-0.010+0.012(sys). Using the map of the Soudan rock overburden, the muon momenta as measured underground were projected to the corresponding values at the surface in the energy range 1-7 TeV. Within this range of energies at the surface, the MINOS data are consistent with the charge ratio being energy independent at the 2 standard deviation level. When the MINOS results are compared with measurements at lower energies, a clear rise in the charge ratio in the energy range 0.3-1.0 TeV is apparent. A qualitative model shows that the rise is consistent with an increasing contribution of kaon decays to the muon charge ratio. © 2007 The American Physical Society.

Abstract: The complete 5.4 kton MINOS far detector has been taking data since the beginning of August 2003 at a depth of 2070 meters water-equivalent in the Soudan mine, Minnesota. This paper presents the first MINOS observations of muon neutrino and muon anti-neutrino charged-current atmospheric neutrino interactions based on an exposure of 418 days. The ratio of upward to downward-going events in the data is compared to the Monte Carlo expectation in the absence of neutrino oscillations giving: R_data(up/down)/R_MC(up/down) = 0.62^{+0.19}_{-0.14} (stat.) +- 0.02 (sys.). An extended maximum likelihood analysis of the observed L/E distributions excludes the null hypothesis of no neutrino oscillations at the 98 % confidence level. Using the curvature of the observed muons in the 1.3 T MINOS magnetic field muon neutrino and muon anti-neutrino interactions are separated. The ratio of muon neutrino to muon anti-neutrino events in the data is compared to the Monte Carlo expectation assuming neutrinos and anti-neutrinos oscillate in same manner giving: R_data(numubar/numu)/R_MC(numubar/numu) = 0.96^{+0.38}_{-0.27} (stat.) +- 0.15 (sys.), where the errors are the statistical and systematic uncertainties. Although the statistics are limited, this is the first direct observation of atmospheric neutrino interactions separately for muon neutrinos and muon anti-neutrinos.

Abstract: This letter reports results from the MINOS experiment based on its initial exposure to neutrinos from the Fermilab NuMI beam. The rate and energy spectra of charged current muon neutrino interactions are compared in two detectors located along the beam axis at distances of 1 km and 735 km. With 1.27 x 10^{20} 120 GeV protons incident on the NuMI target, 215 events with energies below 30 GeV are observed at the Far Detector, compared to an expectation of 336 \pm 14.4 events. The data are consistent with muon neutrino disappearance via oscillation with |\Delta m^2_{23}| = 2.74^{+0.44}_{-0.26} x 10^{-3} eV^2/c^4 and sin^2(2\theta_{23}) > 0.87 (at 60% C.L.)., Comment: To be submitted to PRL. 6 pages, 4 figures

Abstract: The review of technical possibility and investigations, which are performed at the Completely Automatic Measurement Facility (Russian sounds as PAVICOM), is presented. A very efficient Completely Automated Measuring Facility (PAVICOM) for track-detector data processing in the field of nuclear and high-energy particle physics has been constructed in the Lebedev Physical Institute. PAVICOM is widely used in Russia for experimental data treatment of track detectors (emulsion trackers, solid trackers) in high and low energy physics, cosmic ray physics, etc. The PAVICOM provides the essential improving the efficiency of experimental studies. In contrast to semi-automated microscopes widely used until now, the PAVICOM is capable of performing completely automated measurements and analysis of charged-particle tracks in nuclear emulsions and track detectors without employing hard visual work, In this case, track images are recorded by CCD-cameras and then are digitized and converted into files. Thus, automated measurements and online analysis accelerate the experimental-data processing by approximately thousand times. Completely automatic devices similar to PAVICOM came into operation in scientific centers of Japan, Italy, CERN, and some other countries. In Russia, the PAVICOM is the only facility of such a type. Its possibilities are so wide that satisfy not only needs of investigations being performed in LPI but are also used by other Russian laboratories and Institutes. Thus, PAVICOM actually plays the role of multipurpose user center.© (2005) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.

44. Recording of neutron and acoustic emissions from palladium target in a low background underground experiment

Author: V. V. Kuz'minov, P. I. Golubnichyi, B. V. Pritichenko, A. D. Philonenko, G. I. Merzon, V. A. Tsarev, and A. A. Tsaric
Subjects: Physics, Nuclear physics, Acceleration, Acoustic emission, Neutron emission, Scintillation counter, Neutron, Neutron spectroscopy, Background radiation, Cold fusion
Abstract: 42 events of correlated neutron and acoustic emissions from the electrolytically deuterized palladium target were recorded in the course of the experiment which had been fulfilled at the Baksan underground low background Laboratory. The expected number of false correlations was estimated to be close to 5 events. The results obtained confirm the predictions of the acceleration model which connects the cold fusion process with fracturing a deuterized matter.

49. Photoproduction of π 0 Mesons at Helium and at Photon Energies of 160–240 MeV

Author: L. S. Tatarinskaya, S. V. Rusakov, V. A. Tsarev, P.N. Shareiko, A. S. Belousov, and E.I. Tamm

Abstract: Experimental values of the differential and total cross sections of elastic π0meson photo-production at helium were obtained in the photon-energy interval 160–240 MeV. The measured differential cross sections agree with the calculations based on the already developed theory of the relativistic momentum approximation in the bremsstrahlung energy range E γ ≤ 200 MeV. When corrections for the π0 meson interaction in the final state are introduced, one can obtain agreement with the available experimental data up to energies E γ ≤ 300 MeV. The experimental value of the amplitude ℱ 20 + of π meson photoproduction at nucleons was found for 〈r〉 He = 1.4 F.
