Abstract: Abstract Background Ion beam radiotherapy provides potential for increased dose conformation to the target volume. To translate it into a clinical advantage, it is necessary to guarantee a precise alignment of the actual internal patient geometry with the treatment beam. This is in particular challenging for inter- and intrafractional variations, including movement. Ion beams have the potential for a high sensitivity imaging of the patient geometry. However, the research on suitable imaging methods is not conclusive yet. Here we summarize the research activities within the “Clinical research group heavy ion therapy” funded by the DFG (KFO214). Our aim was to develop a method for the visualization of a 1 mm thickness difference with a spatial resolution of about 1 mm at clinically applicable doses. Methods We designed and built a dedicated system prototype for ion radiography using exclusively the pixelated semiconductor technology Timepix developed at CERN. Helium ions were chosen as imaging radiation due to their decreased scattering in comparison to protons, and lower damaging potential compared to carbon ions. The data acquisition procedure and a dedicated information processing algorithm were established. The performance of the method was evaluated at the ion beam therapy facility HIT in Germany with geometrical phantoms. The quality of the images was quantified by contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) and spatial resolution (SR) considering the imaging dose. Results Using the unique method for single ion identification, degradation of the images due to the inherent contamination of the outgoing beam with light secondary fragments (hydrogen) was avoided. We demonstrated experimentally that the developed data processing increases the CNR by 350%. Consideration of the measured ion track directions improved the SR by 150%. Compared to proton radiographs at the same dose, helium radiographs exhibited 50% higher SR (0.56 ± 0.04lp/mm vs. 0.37 ± 0.02lp/mm) at a comparable CNR in the middle of the phantom. The clear visualization of the aimed inhomogeneity at a diagnostic dose level demonstrates a resolution of 0.1 g/cm2 or 0.6% in terms of water-equivalent thickness. Conclusions We developed a dedicated method for helium ion radiography, based exclusively on pixelated semiconductor detectors. The achievement of a clinically desired image quality in simple phantoms at diagnostic dose levels was demonstrated experimentally.

Abstract: Currently there is a rising interest in helium ion beams for radiotherapy. For benchmarking of the physical beam models used in treatment planning, there is a need for experimental data on the composition and spatial distribution of mixed ion fields. Of particular interest are the attenuation of the primary helium ion fluence and the build-up of secondary hydrogen ions due to nuclear interactions. The aim of this work was to provide such data with an enhanced precision. Moreover, the validity and limits of the mixed ion field equivalence between water and PMMA targets were investigated. Experiments with a 220.5 MeV/u helium ion pencil beam were performed at the Heidelberg Ion-Beam Therapy Center in Germany. The compact detection system used for ion tracking and identification was solely based on Timepix position-sensitive semiconductor detectors. In comparison to standard techniques, this system is two orders of magnitude smaller, and provides higher precision and flexibility. The numbers of outgoing helium and hydrogen ions per primary helium ion as well as the lateral particle distributions were quantitatively investigated in the forward direction behind water and PMMA targets with 5.2-18 cm water equivalent thickness (WET). Comparing water and PMMA targets with the same WET, we found that significant differences in the amount of outgoing helium and hydrogen ions and in the lateral particle distributions arise for target thicknesses above 10 cm WET. The experimental results concerning hydrogen ions emerging from the targets were reproduced reasonably well by Monte Carlo simulations using the FLUKA code. Concerning the amount of outgoing helium ions, significant differences of 3-15% were found between experiments and simulations. We conclude that if PMMA is used in place of water in dosimetry, differences in the dose distributions could arise close to the edges of the field, in particular for deep seated targets.

Abstract: Purpose Non-invasive methods for monitoring of the therapeutic ion beam extension in the patient are desired in order to handle deteriorations of the dose distribution related to changes of the patient geometry. In carbon ion radiotherapy, secondary light ions represent one of potential sources of information about the dose distribution in the irradiated target. The capability to detect range-changing inhomogeneities inside of an otherwise homogeneous phantom, based on single track measurements, is addressed in this paper. Methods Air and stainless steel inhomogeneities, with PMMA equivalent thickness of 10 mm and 4.8 mm respectively, were inserted into a PMMA-phantom at different positions in depth. Irradiations of the phantom with therapeutic carbon ion pencil beams were performed at the Heidelberg Ion Beam Therapy Center. Tracks of single secondary ions escaping the phantom under irradiation were detected with a pixelized semiconductor detector Timepix. The statistical relevance of the found differences between the track distributions with and without inhomogeneities was evaluated. Results Measured shifts of the distal edge and changes in the fragmentation probability make the presence of inhomogeneities inserted into the traversed medium detectable for both, 10 mm air cavities and 1 mm thick stainless steel. Moreover, the method was shown to be sensitive also on their position in the observed body, even when localized behind the Bragg-peak. Conclusions The presented results demonstrate experimentally, that the method using distributions of single secondary ion tracks is sensitive to the changes of homogeneity of the traversed material for the studied geometries of the target.

Abstract: Carbon ion beam radiotherapy enables a very localised dose deposition. However, already small changes in the patient geometry or positioning errors can significantly distort the dose distribution. A live monitoring system of the beam delivery within the patient is therefore highly desirable and could improve patient treatment. We present a novel three-dimensional imaging method of the beam in the irradiated object, exploiting the measured tracks of single secondary ions emerging under irradiation. The secondary particle tracks are detected with a TimePix stack, a set of parallel pixelated semiconductor detectors. We developed a three-dimensional reconstruction algorithm based on maximum likelihood expectation maximisation. We demonstrate the applicability of the new method in an irradiation of a cylindrical PMMA phantom of human head size with a carbon ion pencil beam of 226MeV/u. The beam image in the phantom is reconstructed from a set of 9 discrete detector positions between -80 and 50 degrees from the beam axis. Furthermore, we demonstrate the potential to visualise inhomogeneities by irradiating a PMMA phantom with an air gap as well as bone and adipose tissue surrogate inserts. We successfully reconstructed a 3D image of the treatment beam in the phantom from single secondary ion tracks. The beam image corresponds well to the distribution expected from the beam direction and energy. In addition, cylindrical inhomogeneities with a diameter of 2.85cm and density differences down to 0.3g/cm$^3$ to the surrounding material are clearly visualised. This novel 3D method to image a therapeutic carbon ion beam in the irradiated object does not interfere with the treatment and requires knowledge only of single secondary ion tracks. Even with detectors with only a small angular coverage, the 3D reconstruction of the fragmentation points presented in this work was found to be feasible., Comment: This is an author-created, un-copyedited version of an article published in Physics in Medicine and Biology.

6. Quantitative carbon ion beam radiography and tomography with a flat-panel detector

Abstract: High dose gradients are inherent to ion beam therapy. This results in high sensitivity to discrepancies between planned and delivered dose distributions. Therefore an accurate knowledge of the ion stopping power of the traversed tissue is critical. One proposed method to ensure high quality dose deposition is to measure the stopping power by ion radiography. Although the idea of imaging with highly energetic ions is more than forty years old, there is a lack of simple detectors suitable for this purpose. In this study the performance of an amorphous silicon flat-panel detector, originally designed for photon imaging, was investigated for quantitative carbon ion radiography and tomography. The flat-panel detector was exploited to measure the water equivalent thickness (WET) and water equivalent path length (WEPL) of a phantom at the Heidelberg Ion-Beam Therapy Center (HIT). To do so, the ambiguous correlation of detector signal to particle energy was overcome by active or passive variation of carbon ion beam energy and measurement of the signal-to-beam energy correlation. The active method enables one to determine the WET of the imaged object with an uncertainty of 0.5 mm WET. For tomographic WEPL measurements the passive method was exploited resulting in an accuracy of 0.01 WEPL. The developed imaging technique presents a method to measure the two-dimensional maps of WET and WEPL of phantoms with a simple and commercially available detector. High spatial resolution of 0.8 × 0.8 mm(2) is given by the detector design. In the future this powerful tool will be used to evaluate the performance of the treatment planning algorithm by studying WET uncertainties.

Abstract: Inclusive jet production is studied in neutral current deep-inelastic positron-proton scattering at large four momentum transfer squared Q^2>150 GeV^2 with the H1 detector at HERA. Single and double differential inclusive jet cross sections are measured as a function of Q^2 and of the transverse energy E_T of the jets in the Breit frame. The measurements are found to be well described by calculations at next-to-leading order in perturbative QCD. The running of the strong coupling is demonstrated and the value of alpha_s(M_Z) is determined. The ratio of the inclusive jet cross section to the inclusive neutral current cross section is also measured and used to extract a precise value for alpha_s(M_Z)=0.1193+/-0.0014(exp.)^{+0.0047}_{-0.0030}(th.)+/-0.0016(pdf).

Abstract: Measurements are presented of diffractive open charm production at HERA. The event topology is given by ep -> eX Y where the system X contains at least one charmed hadron and is well separated by a large rapidity gap from a leading low-mass proton remnant system Y. Two analysis techniques are used for the cross section measurements. In the first, the charm quark is tagged by the reconstruction of a D*(2010) meson. This technique is used in deep-inelastic scattering (DIS) and photoproduction. In the second, a method based on the displacement of tracks from the primary vertex is used to measure the open charm contribution to the inclusive diffractive cross section in DIS. The measurements are compared with next-to-leading order QCD predictions based on diffractive parton density functions previously obtained from a QCD analysis of the inclusive diffractive cross section at H1. A good agreement is observed in the full kinematic regime, which supports the validity of QCD factorization for open charm production in diffractive DIS and photoproduction., 39 pages, 13 figures, 8 tables

Abstract: A search for a narrow baryonic resonance decaying to K(s)(0)p or K-s(0)(p) over bar is carried out in deep inelastic ep scattering with the H1 detector at HERA. ss Such a resonance could be a strange pentaquark Theta(+), evidence for which has been reported by several experiments. The K(s)(0)p and K-s(0)(p) over bar invariant ss mass distributions presented here do not show any significant peak in the mass range from threshold up to 1.7 GeV. Mass dependent upper limits on sigma(ep -> e Theta X+) x BR(Theta(+) -> K(0)p) are obtained at the 95% confidence level.

Abstract: Measurements are presented of inclusive charm and beauty cross sections in e^+p collisions at HERA for values of photon virtuality 12 \le Q^2 \le 60 GeV^2 and of the Bjorken scaling variable 0.0002 \le x \le 0.005. The fractions of events containing charm and beauty quarks are determined using a method based on the impact parameter, in the transverse plane, of tracks to the primary vertex, as measured by the H1 vertex detector. Values for the structure functions F_2^{c\bar{c}} and F_2^{b\bar{b}} are obtained. This is the first measurement of F_2^{b\bar{b}} in this kinematic range. The results are found to be compatible with the predictions of perturbative quantum chromodynamics and withprevious measurements of F_2^{c\bar{c}}.

Abstract: A search for gravitinos produced in e±p collisions is performed using the H1 detector at HERA. The data were taken at a centre-of-mass energy of 319 GeV and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 64.3 pb -1 for e+p collisions and 13.5 pb-1 for e -p collisions. If R-parity is not conserved, the t-channel exchange of a selectron can produce a neutralino, which, in models where the gravitino is the lightest supersymmetric particle, subsequently decays into a photon and a light gravitino. The resulting event signature, which involves an isolated photon, a jet and missing transverse energy, is analysed for the first time at HERA. No deviation from the Standard Model is found. Exclusion limits on the cross section and on R-parity-violating Yukawa couplings are derived in a Gauge Mediated Supersymmetry Breaking scenario. The results are independent of the squark sector. Neutralinos and supersymmetric partners of the left-handed electron with masses up to 112 GeV and 164 GeV, respectively, can be ruled out at the 95% confidence level for R-parity-violating couplings λ′ equal to 1, in some parts of the parameter space of the considered model. © 2005 Elsevier B.V.

The data are divided into four regions in Q$^2$ and Bjorken x, and values for the structure functions $F_2^{c\overline{c}}$ and $F_2^{b\overline{b}}$ are obtained. The results are found to be compatible with the predictions of perturbative quantum chromodynamics.

Abstract: A search for scalar top quarks in R-parity violating supersymmetry is performed in e(+)p collisions at HERA using the H1 detector. The data, taken at roots = 319 GeV and 301 GeV, correspond to an integrated luminosity of 106 pb(-1). The resonant production of scalar top quarks t in positron quark fusion via an R-parity violating Yukawa coupling lambda' is considered with the subsequent bosonic stop decay t --> BW. The R-parity violating decay of the sbottom quark b --> dv(e) and leptonic and hadronic W decays are considered. No evidence for stop production is found in the search for bosonic stop decays nor in a search for the direct R-parity violating decay t --> eq. Mass dependent limits on lambda' are obtained in the framework of the minimal supersymmetric Standard Model. Stop quarks with masses up to 275 GeV can be excluded at the 95% confidence level for a Yukawa coupling of electromagnetic strength. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Abstract: The proton structure function F-2(x, Q(2)) is measured in inelastic QED Compton scattering using data collected with the H1 detector at HERA. QED Compton events are used to access the kinematic range of very low virtualities of the exchanged photon, Q(2), down to 0.5 GeV2, and Bjorken x up to similar to 0.06, a region which has not been covered previously by inclusive measurements at HERA. The results are in agreement with the measurements from fixed target lepton-nucleon scattering experiments. (C) 2004 Published by Elsevier B.V.

Abstract: Cross sections for the production of two isolated muons up to high di-muon masses are measured in ep collisions at HERA with the H1 detector in a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 71 pb-1 at a centre of mass energy of √s=319 GeV. The results are in good agreement with Standard Model predictions, the dominant process being photon-photon interactions. Additional muons or electrons are searched for in events with two high transverse momentum muons using the full data sample corresponding to 114 pb-1, where data at √s=301 GeV and √s=319 GeV are combined. Both the di-lepton sample and the tri-lepton sample agree well with the predictions. © 2004 Published by Elsevier B.V., 0, DESY-03-159 / hep-ex/0311015, SCOPUS: ar.j, info:eu-repo/semantics/published

Abstract: Heavy ion-beam therapy is a highly precise radiation therapy exploiting the characteristic interaction of ions with matter. The steep dose gradient of the Bragg curve allows the irradiation of targets with high-dose and a narrow dose penumbra around the target, in contrast to photon irradiation. This, however, makes heavy ion-beam therapy very sensitive to minor changes in the range calculation of the treatment planning system, as it has a direct influence on the outcome of the treatment. Our previous study has shown that ion radiography with an amorphous silicon flat-panel detector allows the measurement of the water equivalent thickness (WET) of an imaging object with good accuracy and high spatial resolution. In this study, the developed imaging technique is used to measure the WET distribution of a patient-like phantom, and these results are compared to the WET calculation of the treatment planning system. To do so, a measured two-dimensional map of the WET of an anthropomorphic phantom was compared to WET distributions based on x-ray computed tomography images as used in the treatment planning system. It was found that the WET maps agree well in the overall shape and two-dimensional distribution of WET values. Quantitatively, the ratio of the two-dimensional WET maps shows a mean of 1.004 with a standard deviation of 0.022. Differences were found to be concentrated at high WET gradients. This could be explained by the Bragg-peak degradation, which is measured in detail by ion radiography with the flat-panel detector, but is not taken into account in the treatment planning system. Excluding pixels exhibiting significant Bragg-peak degradation, the mean value of the ratio was found to be 1.000 with a standard deviation of 0.012. Employment of the amorphous silicon flat-panel detector for WET measurements allows us to detect uncertainties of the WET determination in the treatment planning process. This makes the investigated technique a very helpful tool to study the WET determination of critical and complex phantom cases.

Abstract: Radiotherapy with narrow scanned carbon ion beams enables a highly accurate treatment of tumours while sparing the surrounding healthy tissue. Changes in the patient's geometry can alter the actual ion range in tissue and result in unfavourable changes in the dose distribution. Consequently, it is desired to verify the actual beam delivery within the patient. Real-time and non-invasive measurement methods are preferable. Currently, the only technically feasible method to monitor the delivered dose distribution within the patient is based on tissue activation measurements by means of positron emission tomography (PET). An alternative monitoring method based on tracking of prompt secondary ions leaving a patient irradiated with carbon ion beams has been previously suggested. It is expected to help in overcoming the limitations of the PET-based technique like physiological washout of the beam induced activity, low signal and to allow for real-time measurements. In this paper, measurements of secondary charged particle tracks around a head-sized homogeneous PMMA phantom irradiated with pencil-like carbon ion beams are presented. The investigated energies and beam widths are within the therapeutically used range. The aim of the study is to deduce properties of the primary beam from the distribution of the secondary charged particles. Experiments were performed at the Heidelberg Ion Beam Therapy Center, Germany. The directions of secondary charged particles emerging from the PMMA phantom were measured using an arrangement of two parallel pixelated silicon detectors (Timepix). The distribution of the registered particle tracks was analysed to deduce its dependence on clinically important beam parameters: beam range, width and position. Distinct dependencies of the secondary particle tracks on the properties of the primary carbon ion beam were observed. In the particular experimental set-up used, beam range differences of 1.3 mm were detectable. In addition, variations in the beam width could be measured with a precision of 0.9 mm. Furthermore, shifts of the lateral beam position could be monitored with a sub-millimetre precision. The presented investigations demonstrate experimentally that the non-invasive measurement and analysis of secondary ion distributions around head-sized homogeneous objects provide information on the actual beam delivery. Beam range, width and position could be monitored with a precision attractive for therapeutic situations.

Abstract: Radiotherapy with carbon ion beams is a highly precise method for cancer treatment. This is due to the finite range and the relatively low lateral scattering of the carbon ions in comparison to protons. On their path through tissue, the carbon ions can undergo nuclear fragmentation, resulting in lighter projectile fragments. Since the biological effect of the fragments differs from the primary particles, it is important to consider fragmentation in beam models used for therapy planning. Until now, large apparatus have been utilized for ion spectroscopic measurements. Employing a small detector would allow investigations directly within therapy relevant phantoms. In this contribution we report on the development of such a method using the Timepix detector. Its high spatial resolution enables to visualize and distinguish tracks of single particles. Experiments were performed at the Heidelberg Ion-Beam Therapy Center, using a carbon ion pencil beam of E=271 MeV/u. To investigate fragments in different material depths, the detector was placed perpendicular to the beam with 12 to 45 cm thick PMMA slabs in front of it. The pixel-wise energy calibration allows to directly determine the particle energy loss in the sensitive layer. Charge released in the detector by an ion spreads out during charge collection and is collected by several adjacent pixels forming signal clusters. Pattern recognition analysis of the signal shows a clear dependence of cluster parameter distributions on the PMMA depth. Based on this information the particular particle species in the obtained spectra could be identified. In this way, discrimination between primary carbon ions and hydrogen, helium and heavier fragments is possible. The presented novel method enables fragment distinction in mixed particle fields. Its main advantage lies in the flexibility and small size of the set-up.

Abstract: Radiotherapy with narrow 12C ion beams enables treatment of tumors with high precision while sparing the surrounding healthy tissue. Unpredictable changes in the patient's geometry can alter the ion range and result in changes in the dose distribution. Therefore, it is desirable to verify the actual dose delivery in the patient, preferably in real-time and in a non-invasive manner. Currently, the only technically feasible dose delivery monitoring method is based on tissue activation measurements by means of positron emission tomography (PET). As an alternative to PET-based measurements, beam range monitoring exploiting the detection of prompt secondary ions has been suggested. This modality is expected to allow for real-time monitoring, thereby reducing the influences of physiological signal wash-out known from PET-based techniques. In this contribution, the potential of monitoring narrow 12C ion beams in a head-sized PMMA phantom by tracking of secondary ions is investigated experimentally. Experiments with therapeutic carbon ion beams were performed at the Heidelberg Ion Beam Therapy Center (HIT), Germany. The Timepix detector was used to track secondary ions emerging from the irradiated phantom. Analysis of the secondary ion directions was used to monitor the range, width and position of pencil-like 12C ion beams in therapy relevant conditions. Clear dependences of the secondary ion track distribution on the investigated beam settings were found. Detectable were beam range differences down to about 2 mm and differences in the beam width of 1.4 mm. Furthermore, lateral shifts of the beam position by 1 mm were measurable. The presented experiments show the potential of secondary ion tracking for monitoring therapeutic carbon ion beams.

Abstract: This paper presents a novel technique allowing for the measurement and visualization of the spatial distribution and time evolution of the charge collection process in semiconductor sensors of ionizing radiation. The study was carried out with a pixelated high resistivity silicon sensor bump-bonded to the Timepix readout chip (256 × 256 pixels, with pitch of 55 μm). The sensor was irradiated with energetic protons (132 MeV) and carbon ions (240 MeV/u) entering the sensor at shallow angles. Such ions penetrate the full sensor thickness ionizing and depositing charge along their tracks. The charge deposited is collected by individual pixels of the Timepix chip operated in Time mode. The overall accuracy of these measurements was enhanced by averaging many particle tracks. The time accuracy is in order of nanoseconds and the position accuracy is about 5 μm. The purpose of this work is to demonstrate the accurate measurement that may be used with the mathematical model to investigate the electric field profile in a semiconductor sensor.

Abstract: Due to the finite range of ions in matter and the presence of the Bragg-peak, ion beams provide highly localized dose distributions. In radiation therapy with ion beams, unpredictable changes within the patient can deteriorate the quality of the dose distribution in the target. Therefore it is desired to monitor the beam within the patient in a non-invasive way. In this contribution the information carried by secondary ions, which are emerging from a patient during carbon ion beam irradiation, is studied. In a framework of investigations on the feasibility of beam monitoring exploiting secondary ions, the aim of this study was to show the possibility of distinction of two different primary carbon ion beam energies solely from the analysis of the secondary ion directions measured. The situation was complicated by realistic tissue inhomogeneities simulated by using a patient-like phantom. Experiments were performed at the Heidelberg Ion Beam Therapy Center in Germany using narrow carbon ion beams. The emerging secondary ions were registered by the Timepix detector. To determine the direction of the particles, a multi-layered detector (3D voxel detector) was employed. Clear differences between the application of the two beams with different energies (213 and 250 MeV!u) could be observed in the distributions of the measured secondary ions, despite the inherent tissue inhomogeneities. This result was achieved in both brain (homogeneous) and skull base regions (containing inhomogeneities). Differences between the energies could be observed with the detector placed on different positions around the head. The performed first experiments towards 12C beam monitoring in a patient-like geometry exploiting tracking of secondary ions with a 3D voxel detector show, that the information about the therapeutic carbon ion beam which is carried by secondary ions is promising and worthwhile to be investigated further.

Abstract: The finite range of ion beams in matter and the presence of the Bragg-peak at the end of their range enable to create highly localized dose distributions. This advantage represents at the same time a challenge - namely to control all factors influencing the dose distribution with high precision. To ensure the required quality of the dose distribution applied to the patient, a number of measurement procedures is conducted. Many of these techniques were adopted from photon beam radiotherapy. Improvements in terms of the information amount gained are expected from new generations of dedicated ion detection techniques. One of the possible research directions is given by semiconductor-based detectors, which are at present rarely used in ion beam radiotherapy. In this contribution we report on the studies of the capabilities of the Timepix detector. This hybrid semiconductor pixelated detector was developed by the Medipix Collaboration at CERN. Its high spatial resolution allows an online registration of single ions. Experiments were performed at the Heidelberg Ion Beam Therapy Center in Germany using carbon ion beams. The signal pattern of single ions in the detector signal was shown to provide separation of the primary and different types of secondary ions. The direction of the secondary ions emerging from different irradiated phantoms were measured using 3D voxel detector containing several Timepix layers. The analysis of the recorded ion tracks shows a correlation with the beam range, position and width, which are all of high interest for monitoring of the beam within the patient during the therapy delivery. The results of the discussed studies show that the Timepix detector offers attractive capabilities for the needs of carbon ion beam therapy.

Abstract: Three- and four-jet production is measured in deep-inelastic ep scattering at low x and Q2 with the H1 detector using an integrated luminosity of 44.2 pb-1. Several phase space regions are selected for the three-jet analysis in order to study the underlying parton dynamics from global topologies to the more restrictive regions of forward jets close to the proton direction. The measurements of cross sections for events with at least three jets are compared to fixed order QCD predictions of O(αs 2) and O(αs 3) and with Monte Carlo simulation programs where higher order effects are approximated by parton showers. A good overall description is provided by the O(α s 3) calculation. Too few events are predicted at the lowest x ∼ 10-4, especially for topologies with two forward jets. This hints to large contributions at low x from initial state radiation of gluons close to the proton direction and unordered in transverse momentum. The Monte Carlo program in which gluon radiation is generated by the colour dipole model gives a good description of both the three- and the four-jet data in absolute normalisation and shape. © 2008 Springer-Verlag / Società Italiana di Fisica., 0, DESY-07-200 / arxiv:0711.2606, The H1 Collaboration., info:eu-repo/semantics/published

Abstract: Inclusive D*(+/-) production is measured in deep-inelastic ep scattering at HERA with the H1 detector. In addition, the production of dijets in events with a D*(+/-) meson is investigated. The analysis covers values of photon virtuality 2 LT = Q(2) LT = 100 GeV2 and of inelasticity 0.05 LT = y LT = 0.7. Differential cross sections are measured as a function of Q(2) and x and of various D*(+/-) meson and jet observables. Within the experimental and theoretical uncertainties all measured cross sections are found to be adequately described by next-to-leading order (NLO) QCD calculations, based on the photon - gluon fusion process and DGLAP evolution, without the need for an additional resolved component of the photon beyond what is included at NLO. A reasonable description of the data is also achieved by a prediction based on the CCFM evolution of partons involving the kT- unintegrated gluon distribution of the proton.

Abstract: The average charged track multiplicity and the normalised distribution of the scaled momentum, $\xp$, of charged final state hadrons are measured in deep-inelastic $\ep$ scattering at high $Q^2$ in the Breit frame of reference. The analysis covers the range of photon virtuality $100 < Q^2 < 20 000 \GeV^{2}$. Compared with previous results presented by HERA experiments this analysis has a significantly higher statistical precision and extends the phase space to higher $Q^{2}$ and to the full range of $\xp$. The results are compared with $e^+e^-$ annihilation data and with various calculations based on perturbative QCD using different models of the hadronisation process., 20 pages, 5 figures

Abstract: A search for narrow baryonic resonances decaying into Xi- pi- or Xi- pi+ and their antiparticles is carried out with the H1 detector using deep inelastic scattering events at HERA in the range of negative photon four-momentum transfer squared 2 < Q^2 < 100 GeV^2. No signal is observed for a new baryonic state in the mass range 1600 - 2300 MeV in either the doubly charged or the neutral decay channels. The known baryon Xi0 is observed through its decay mode into Xi- pi+. Upper limits are given on the ratio of the production rates of new baryonic states, such as the hypothetical pentaquark states Xi^{--}_{5q} or Xi^{0}_{5q}, relative to the Xi0 baryon state., 15 pages, 4 figures

Abstract: A search for the lepton flavour violating processes ep→μX and ep→τX is performed with the H1 experiment at HERA. Final states with a muon or tau and a hadronic jet are searched for in a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 66.5 pb-1 for e+p collisions and 13.7 pb-1 for e-p collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 319 GeV. No evidence for lepton flavour violation is found. Limits are derived on the mass and the couplings of leptoquarks inducing lepton flavour violation in an extension of the Buchmüller–Rückl–Wyler effective model. Leptoquarks produced in ep collisions with a coupling strength of λ=0.3 and decaying with the same coupling strength to a muon–quark pair or a tau–quark pair are excluded at 95% confidence level up to masses of 459 GeV and 379 GeV, respectively., The European Physical Journal C, 52 (4), ISSN:1434-6044, ISSN:1434-6052

Abstract: Measurements are presented of differential dijet cross sections in diffractive photoproduction (Q^2 e X Y, in which the system X, containing at least two jets, is separated from a leading low-mass proton remnant system Y by a large rapidity gap. The dijet cross sections are compared with NLO QCD predictions based on diffractive parton densities previously obtained from a QCD analysis of inclusive diffractive DIS cross sections by H1. In DIS, the dijet data are well described, supporting the validity of QCD factorisation. The diffractive DIS dijet data are more sensitive to the diffractive gluon density at high fractional parton momentum than the measurements of inclusive diffractive DIS. In photoproduction, the predicted dijet cross section has to be multiplied by a factor of approximately 0.5 for both direct and resolved photon interactions to describe the measurements. The ratio of measured dijet cross section to NLO prediction in photoproduction is a factor 0.5+-0.1 smaller than the same ratio in DIS. This suppression is the first clear observation of QCD hard scattering factorisation breaking at HERA. The measurements are also compared to the two soft colour neutralisation models SCI and GAL. The SCI model describes diffractive dijet production in DIS but not in photoproduction. The GAL model fails in both kinematic regions., Comment: 35 pages, 12 figures

Abstract: The diffractive photoproduction of ρ mesons, e p → e ρ Y, with large momentum transfer squared at the proton vertex, |t|, is studied with the H1 detector at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 20.1 pb-1. The photon-proton centre of mass energy spans the range 75 < W < 95 GeV, the photon virtuality is restricted to Q2 < 0.01 GeV2 and the mass MY of the proton remnant is below 5 GeV. The t dependence of the cross section is measured for the range 1.5 < | t | < 10.0 GeV2 and is well described by a power law, d σ / d | t | ∝ | t |- n. The spin density matrix elements, which provide information on the helicity structure of the interaction, are extracted using measurements of angular distributions of the ρ decay products. The data indicate a violation of s-channel helicity conservation, with contributions from both single and double helicity-flip being observed. The results are compared to the predictions of perturbative QCD models., Physics Letters B, 638 (5-6), ISSN:0370-2693, ISSN:0031-9163, ISSN:1873-2445

Abstract: Cross sections for elastic production of J/Psi mesons in photoproduction and electroproduction are measured in electron proton collisions at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 55 pb^{-1}. Results are presented for photon virtualities Q^2 up to 80 GeV^2. The dependence on the photon-proton centre of mass energy W_{gamma p} is analysed in the range 40 < \Wgp < 305 GeV in photoproduction and 40 < \Wgp < 160 GeV in electroproduction. The \Wgp dependences of the cross sections do not change significantly with Q^2 and can be described by models based on perturbative QCD. Within such models, the data show a high sensitivity to the gluon density of the proton in the domain of low Bjorken x and low Q^2. Differential cross sections d��/dt, where t is the squared four-momentum transfer at the proton vertex, are measured in the range |t, 40 pages, 14 figures, 15 tables

Abstract: Deep-inelastic ep scattering data taken with the H1 detector at HERA and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 106 pb-1 are used to study the differential distributions of event shape variables. These include thrust, jet broadening, jet mass and the C-parameter. The four-momentum transfer Q is taken to be the relevant energy scale and ranges between 14 GeV and 200 GeV. The event shape distributions are compared with perturbative QCD predictions, which include resummed contributions and analytical power law corrections, the latter accounting for non-perturbative hadronisation effects. The data clearly exhibit the running of the strong coupling αs(Q) and are consistent with a universal power correction parameter α0 for all event shape variables. A combined QCD fit using all event shape variables yields αs(mZ)=0.1198±0.0013 +0.0056 -0.0043 and α0=0.476±0.008 +0.018 -0.059., The European Physical Journal C, 46 (2), ISSN:1434-6044, ISSN:1434-6052

Abstract: Using the deep inelastic e+p and e-p charged and neutral current scattering cross sections previously published, a combined electroweak and QCD analysis is performed to determine electroweak parameters accounting for their correlation with parton distributions. The data used have been collected by the H1 experiment in 1994-2000 and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 117.2 pb-1. A measurement is obtained of the W propagator mass in charged current ep scattering. The weak mixing angle sin 2θW is determined in the on-mass-shell renormalisation scheme. A first measurement at HERA is made of the light quark weak couplings to the Z0 boson and a possible contribution of right-handed isospin components to the weak couplings is investigated. © 2005 Elsevier B.V.

Abstract: Measurements are reported of the production of dijet events with a leading neutron in ep interactions at HERA. Differential cross sections for photoproduction and deep inelastic scattering are presented as a function of several kinematic variables. Leading order QCD simulation programs are compared with the measurements. Models in which the real or virtual photon interacts with a parton of an exchanged pion are able to describe the data. Next-to-leading order perturbative QCD calculations based on pion exchange are found to be in good agreement with the measured cross sections. The fraction of leading neutron dijet events with respect to all dijet events is also determined. The dijet events with a leading neutron have a lower fraction of resolved photon processes than do the inclusive dijet data., 27 pages, 9 figures, 5 tables

Abstract: A measurement of the beauty production cross section in ep collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 319 GeV is presented. The data were collected with the H1 detector at the HERA collider in the years 1999-2000. Events are selected by requiring the presence of jets and muons in the final state. Both the long lifetime and the large mass of b-flavoured hadrons are exploited to identify events containing beauty quarks. Differential cross sections are measured in photoproduction, with photon virtualities Q^2 < 1 GeV^2, and in deep inelastic scattering, where 2 < Q^2 < 100 GeV^2. The results are compared with perturbative QCD calculations to leading and next-to-leading order. The predictions are found to be somewhat lower than the data., 33 pages, 11 figures, 6 tables

Abstract: A measurement of charm and beauty photoproduction at the electron proton collider HERA is presented based on the simultaneous detection of a D*± meson and a muon. The correlation between the D* meson and the muon serves to separate the charm and beauty contributions and the analysis provides comparable sensitivity to both. The total and differential experimental cross sections are compared to LO and NLO QCD calculations. The measured charm cross section is in good agreement with QCD predictions including higher order effects while the beauty cross section is higher. © 2005 Elsevier B.V.

Abstract: Inclusive production cross sections are measured in deep inelastic scattering at HERA for meson states composed of a charm quark and a light antiquark or the charge conjugate. The measurements cover the kinematic region of photon virtuality 2 < Q 2 < 100 Gev2, inelasticity 0.05 < y < 0.7, D meson transverse momenta pt(D)≥2.5 Gev and pseudorapidity |η(D)|≤1.5. The identification of the D-meson decays and the reduction of the combinatorial background profit from the reconstruction of displaced secondary vertices by means of the H1 silicon vertex detector. The production of charmed mesons containing the light quarks u,d and s is found to be compatible with a description in which the hard scattering is followed by a factorisable and universal hadronisation process., The European Physical Journal C, 38 (4), ISSN:1434-6044, ISSN:1434-6052

Abstract: A direct search has been made for magnetic monopoles produced in e^+ p collisions at a centre of mass energy of 300 GeV at HERA. The beam pipe surrounding the interaction region in 1995-1997 was investigated using a SQUID magnetometer to look for stopped magnetic monopoles. During this time an integrated luminosity of 62 pb^{-1} was delivered. No magnetic monopoles were observed and charge and mass dependent upper limits on the e^+ p production cross section are set., 23 pages, 11 figures, 1 table

Abstract: The cross section for anti-deuteron photoproduction is measured at HERA at a mean centre-of-mass energy of Wγp=200 GeV in the range 0.2 < p T /M < 0.7 and |y| < 0.4, where M, p T and y are the mass, transverse momentum and rapidity of the anti-deuteron in the HERA laboratory frame, respectively. The numbers of anti-deuterons per event are found to be similar in photoproduction to those in central proton-proton collisions at the CERN ISR but much lower than those in central Au-Au collisions at RHIC. The coalescence parameter B 2, which characterizes the likelihood of anti-deuteron production, is measured in photoproduction to be 0.010±0.002±0.001, which is much higher than in Au-Au collisions at a similar nucleon-nucleon centre-of-mass energy. No significant production of particles heavier than deuterons is observed and upper limits are set on the photoproduction cross sections for such particles., The European Physical Journal C, 36 (4), ISSN:1434-6044, ISSN:1434-6052

Abstract: A narrow resonance in D*- p and D*+ pbar invariant mass combinations is observed in inelastic electron-proton collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 300 GeV and 320 GeV at HERA. The resonance has a mass of 3099 \pm 3 (stat.) \pm 5 (syst.) MeV and a measured Gaussian width of 12 \pm 3 (stat.) MeV, compatible with the experimental resolution. The resonance is interpreted as an anti-charmed baryon with a minimal constituent quark composition of uuddcbar, together with the charge conjugate., 20 pages, 7 figures and 2 tables

Abstract: Purpose: Radiation therapy with ion beams provides highly conformal dose distributions. These are sensitive to possible variations of the beam settings and changes of the tissue in the beam path, which can deteriorate the dose distribution in the patient. To monitor the ion beam, it was suggested in [Amaldi et al. NIM A 617, 2010] to exploit the information carried by prompt secondary ions produced within the patient during irradiation. Our initial experimental investigations of monitoring the beam position, width and energy in a homogeneous phantom have been published in [Gwosch et al. PMB 58, 2013]. In this contribution we address the performance of the method in phantoms with inhomogeneities. Materials and Methods: The experiments were performed at the Heidelberg Ion-Beam Therapy Center using beam energies and widths typical for therapy. Secondary charged particles emerging from phantoms during irradiation were registered by the pixelated semiconductor detector Timepix [Llopart et al. NIM A 581, 2007], which was developed by the Medipix Collaboration at CERN. Its multi-layered version (3D voxel detector) [Soukup et al. JINST 6, 2011] was used to determine the direction of single particles. Using an anthropomorphic head phantom containing real bones, it was tested whether the distributions of secondary ions around the phantom are sensitive to variations of the beam parameters. In a plastic slab phantom it was studied how changes of its structure affect the secondary ion distribution. Experiments and Results: The measured particle directions were projected to the vertical beam plane. An example of such a projection is shown in figure 1 (inset). Changes of this projection with the beam parameters and phantom structure were analysed. This new imaging modality [Jakubek IEEE, 2011] was found to be capable of detecting lateral beam shifts, changes of the beam energy (affecting the range) and beam width (see figure 1) of a few millimeters in the head phantom. In a homogeneous plastic phantom, missing slabs of 1cm thickness were found to influence the distribution of secondary ions significantly. Conclusion: The presented experimental investigations demonstrate that measurements of charged particle tracks around phantoms irradiated with carbon ion beams enable to detect missing slices of 1cm thickness in an otherwise homogeneous phantom. In the head-phantom it was shown that the method provides an attractive source of information on the actual beam delivery, despite the inherent tissue inhomogeneities.
