We present optical linear polarimetry in the line of sight to HH135/HH136. The polarimetry of the field stars reveals two populations: one corresponds to a foreground interstellar component; the other originates in the interstellar medium in the vicinity of the Herbig-Haro pair and, therefore, can be used to study the magnetic field in the star forming region. Its direction is aligned with the jet of HH135/HH136, which could be an indication that the interstellar magnetic field is important in the outflow collimation. The interstellar magnetic field magnitude was estimated to be of order 90 uG. According to recent numerical simulations, an interstellar magnetic field of such strength can be important in the definition of the outflow direction. There is also evidence that the associated dark cloud has an elongation parallel to the magnetic field. Our image polarimetry of the extended emission associated with HH135/HH136 shows a centro-symmetric pattern pointing to the knot E of HH136. Previous near infrared polarimetry traces a different illumination center, namely IRAS 11101-5829 - the probable exciting source of the system. This discrepancy can be explained if the YSO emission is completely blocked in optical wavelengths and the dominant optical source in the region is the knot E, whose nature is uncertain. A discussion of the spectral energy distributions of HH136-E and IRAS 11101-5829 is presented.

For an affine toric variety $spec(A)$, we give a convex geometric interpretation of the Gerstenhaber product $HH^2(A)times HH^2(A)to HH^3(A)$ between the Hochschild cohomology groups. In the case of Gorenstein toric surfaces we prove that the Gerstenhaber product is the zero map. As an application in commutative deformation theory we find the equations of the versal base space (in special lattice degrees) up to second order for not necessarily isolated toric Gorenstein singularities. Our construction reproves and generalizes results obtained in [1] and [13].
HH 175 is an isolated Herbig-Haro object seen towards the B35 cloud in the lambda Ori region. We use deep Subaru 8m interference filter images and Spitzer images to show that HH 175 is a terminal shock in a large collimated outflow from the nearby embedded source IRAS 05417+0907. The body of the eastern outflow lobe is hidden by a dense ridge of gas. The western outflow breaks out of the front of the cometary-shaped B35 cloud, carrying cloud fragments along, which are optically visible due to photoionization by the massive lambda Ori stars. The total extent of the bipolar outflow is 13.7 arcmin, which at the adopted distance of 415 pc corresponds to a projected dimension of 1.65 pc. The embedded source IRAS 05417+0907 is located on the flow axis approximately midway between the two lobes, and near-infrared images show it to be a multiple system of 6 sources, with a total luminosity of 31 Lsun. Millimeter maps in CO, 13CO, and C18O show that the B35 cloud is highly structured with multiple cores, of which the one that spawned IRAS 05417+0907 is located at the apex of B35. It is likely that the embedded source is the result of compression by an ionization-shock front driven by the lambda Ori OB stars.
We present high angular resolution, high sensitivity 8.46 GHz (3.6 cm) radio continuum observations made toward the core of the HH~92 outflow with the Very Large Array in 2002-2003 and with the Expanded Very Large Array in 2011. We detect a group of three compact sources distributed in a region 2$$ in extension and discuss their nature. We conclude that one of the objects (VLA 1) is the exciting source of the giant outflow associated with HH~92. In the case of HH~34 we present new 43.3 GHz (7 mm) observations that reveal the presence of a structure associated with the exciting source and elongated perpendicular to the highly collimated optical jet in the region. We propose that this 7 mm source is a circumstellar disk with radius of $sim$80 AU and mass of $sim$0.21 $M_odot$.
The future proton-proton collider (FCC-hh) will deliver collisions at a center of mass energy up to $sqrt{s}=100$ TeV at an unprecedented instantaneous luminosity of $L=3~10^{35}$ cm$^{-2}$s$^{-1}$, resulting in extremely challenging radiation and luminosity conditions. By delivering an integrated luminosity of few tens of ab$^{-1}$, the FCC-hh will provide an unrivalled discovery potential for new physics. Requiring high sensitivity for resonant searches at masses up to tens of TeV imposes strong constraints on the design of the calorimeters. Resonant searches in final states containing jets, taus and electrons require both excellent energy resolution at multi-TeV energies as well as outstanding ability to resolve highly collimated decay products resulting from extreme boosts. In addition, the FCC-hh provides the unique opportunity to precisely measure the Higgs self-coupling in the di-photon and b-jets channel. Excellent photon and jet energy resolution at low energies as well as excellent angular resolution for pion background rejection are required in this challenging environment. This report describes the calorimeter studies for a multi-purpose detector at the FCC-hh. The calorimeter active components consist of Liquid Argon, scintillating plastic tiles and Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors technologies. The technological choices, design considerations and achieved performances in full Geant4 simulations are discussed and presented. The simulation studies are focused on the evaluation of the concepts. Standalone studies under laboratory conditions as well as first tests in realistic FCC-hh environment, including pileup rejection capabilities by making use of fast signals and high granularity, have been performed. These studies have been performed within the context of the preparation of the FCC conceptual design reports (CDRs).
The Future Circular Collider study is exploring possible designs of circular colliders for the post-LHC era, as recommended by the European Strategy Group for High Energy Physics. One such option is FCC-hh, a proton-proton collider with a centre-of-mass energy of 100 TeV. The experimental insertion regions are key areas defining the performance of the collider. This paper presents the first insertion region designs with a complete assessment of the main challenges, as collision debris with two orders of magnitude larger power than current colliders, beam-beam interactions in long insertions, dynamic aperture for optics with peak $beta$ functions one order of magnitude above current colliders, photon background from synchrotron radiation and cross talk between the insertion regions. An alternative design avoiding the use of crab cavities with a small impact on performance is also presented.
