The energy measurement uncertainty of circular electron positron collider (CEPC) beam must be less than $10 mathrm{MeV}$ to accurately measure the mass of the Higgs/W/Z boson. A new microwave-beam Compton backscattering method is proposed to measure the beam energy by detecting the maximum energy of scattered photons. The uncertainty of the beam energy measurement is $6 mathrm{MeV}$. The detection accuracy of the maximum energy of scattered photons need to reach $10^{-4}$. The high-precision gamma detectors can only be a high-purity germanium (HPGe) detector. It is a semiconductor detector, the effective detection range of the gamma energy is 100$mathrm{keV}$-10$mathrm{MeV}$. The maximum energy of the scattered photons is chosen to be the higher the better to reduce the influence of the synchrotron radiation background. Therefore, the maximum energy of the scattered photons is selected to be 9$mathrm{MeV}$. Therefore, the initial photons should be microwave photons to collide with the electrons with the energy of 120GeV on CEPC. The cylindrical resonant cavity with ${TM_{010}}$ mode is selected to transmit microwaves. After Compton backscattering, the scattered photons emit from the vacuum tube of the synchrotron radiation and the energy is detected by the HPGe detector. The structure of shielding materials with polyethylene and lead is designed to minimize the background noise, such as the synchrotron radiation and the classical radiation from the electron beam in the cavity. The hole radius in the side wall of the cavity is about $1.5mathrm{mm}$ to allow the electron beam to pass through. The computer simulation technology (CST) software shows that the influence of the hole radius on the cavity field is negligible, and the influence of the hole radius on the resonance frequency can be corrected easily.

Double-polarization observables in the reaction $vec{e}p rightarrow evec{p}gamma{}$ have been measured at $Q^2=0.33 (GeV/c)^2$. The experiment was performed at the spectrometer setup of the A1 Collaboration using the 855 MeV polarized electron beam provided by the Mainz Microtron (MAMI) and a recoil proton polarimeter. From the double-polarization observables the structure function $P_{LT}^perp$ is extracted for the first time, with the value $(-15.4 pm 3.3 (stat.)^{+1.5}_{-2.4} (syst.)) GeV^{-2}$, using the low-energy theorem for Virtual Compton Sattering. This structure function provides a hitherto unmeasured linear combination of the generalized polarizabilities of the proton.
A search for neutral heavy leptons (NHLs) has been performed using an instrumented decay channel at the NuTeV (E-815) experiment at Fermilab. The decay channel was composed of helium bags interspersed with drift chambers, and was used in conjunction with the NuTeV neutrino detector to search for NHL decays. The data were examined for NHLs decaying into muonic final states (mu mu nu, mu e nu, mu pi, and mu rho); no evidence has been found for NHLs in the 0.25 - 2.0 GeV mass range. This analysis places limits on the mixing of NHLs with standard light neutrinos at a level up to an order of magnitude more restrictive than previous search limits in this mass range.
The nuclear modification factors R_{AA} and R_{CP} have been used to measure medium-induced suppression in heavy-ion collisions at sqrt{s_{NN}} = 200GeV which was among the earliest evidence for the existence of a strongly interacting medium called a quark-gluon plasma (QGP). Nuclear modification factors for asymmetric collisions (R_{dA}) have measured the Cronin Effect, an enhancement of high transverse momentum particle yields in deuteron-gold collisions relative to proton-proton collisions. A similar enhancement is observed in data presented in these proceedings and competes with the quenching caused by partonic energy loss in the QGP. In these proceedings we will present charged-hadron R_{CP} at mid-rapidity for sqrt{s_{NN}} = 7.7 - 62.4GeV as well as identified pi^{+}, K^{+}, and proton R_{CP}. Comparisons to HIJING motivate possible methods for disentangling competing modifications to nuclear transverse momentum spectra.
We demonstrate the splitting of a low-energy electron beam by means of a microwave pseudopotential formed above a planar chip substrate. Beam splitting arises from smoothly transforming the transverse guiding potential for an electron beam from a single-well harmonic confinement into a double-well, thereby generating two separated output beams with $5,$mm lateral spacing. Efficient beam splitting is observed for electron kinetic energies up to $3,$eV, in excellent agreement with particle tracking simulations. We discuss prospects of this novel beam splitter approach for electron-based quantum matter-wave optics experiments.
Based on the high sensitivity of Compton scattering off ultra relativistic electrons, the possibility of anisotropies in the speed of light is investigated. The result discussed in this contribution is based on the gamma-ray beam of the ESRFs GRAAL facility (Grenoble, France) and the search for sidereal variations in the energy of the Compton-edge photons. The absence of oscillations yields the two-sided limit of 1.6 x 10^{-14} at 95 % confidence level on a combination of photon and electron coefficients of the minimal Standard Model Extension (mSME). This new constraint provides an improvement over previous bounds by one order of magnitude.
