A multi-detector array has been constructed for the simultaneous measurement of energy- and angular correlation of electron-positron pairs produced in internal pair conversion (IPC) of nuclear transitions up to 18 MeV. The response functions of the individual detectors have been measured with mono-energetic beams of electrons. Experimental results obtained with 1.6 MeV protons on targets containing $^{11}$B and $^{19}$F show clear IPC over a wide angular range. A comparison with GEANT simulations demonstrates that angular correlations of $e^+e^-$ pairs of transitions in the energy range between 6 and 18 MeV can be determined with sufficient resolution and efficiency to search for deviations from IPC due to the creation and subsequent decay into $e^+e^-$ of a hypothetical short-lived neutral boson.

Cosmic Ray and neutrino oscillation physics can be studied by using atmospheric neutrinos. JUNO (Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory) is a large liquid scintillator detector with low energy detection threshold and excellent energy resolution. T he detector performances allow the atmospheric neutrino oscillation measurements. In this work, a discrimination algorithm for different reaction channels of neutrino-nucleon interactions in the JUNO liquid scintillator, in the GeV/sub-GeV energy region, is presented. The atmospheric neutrino flux is taken as reference, considering $overset{(-)}{ u_mu}$ and $overset{(-)}{ u_e}$. The different temporal behaviour of the classes of events have been exploited to build a time profile-based discrimination algorithm. The results show a good selection power for $overset{(-)}{ u_e}$ CC events, while the $overset{(-)}{ u_mu}$ CC component suffers of an important contamination from NC events at low energy, which is under study. Preliminary results are presented.
Superconducting niobium cavity technology (used for ILC) makes it possible to build a linear collider with energy recovery (ERLC). To avoid parasitic collisions inside the linacs a twin LC is proposed. In this article, we consider the principle schem e of the collider and its energy consumption, and also estimate the achievable luminosity, which is limited by collision effects. With a duty cycle of 1/3, a luminosity of about $5times 10^{35} ,rm cm^{-2}s^{-1}$ is possible, which is almost two orders of magnitude higher than at the ILC, where the beams are used only once.
We present the combined results on electron-pair production in 158 GeV/n {Pb-Au} ($sqrt{s}$= 17.2 GeV) collisions taken at the CERN SPS in 1995 and 1996, and give a detailed account of the data analysis. The enhancement over the reference of neutral meson decays amounts to a factor of 2.31$pm0.19 (stat.)pm0.55 (syst.)pm0.69 (decays)$ for semi-central collisions (28% $sigma/sigma_{geo}$) when yields are integrated over $m>$ 200 MeV/$c^2$ in invariant mass. The measured yield, its stronger-than-linear scaling with $N_{ch}$, and the dominance of low pair $p_t$ strongly suggest an interpretation as {it thermal radiation} from pion annihilation in the hadronic fireball. The shape of the excess centring at $mapprox$ 500 MeV/$c^2$, however, cannot be described without strong medium modifications of the $rho$ meson. The results are put into perspective by comparison to predictions from Brown-Rho scaling governed by chiral symmetry restoration, and from the spectral-function many-body treatment in which the approach to the phase boundary is less explicit.

The pseudorapidity density (dN/deta) for p+p, p+A and A+A(B) collisions, and the mean multiplicity <Nch> for ee, ep, and p+p collisions, are studied for an inclusive range of beam energies (Root_s). Characteristic scaling patterns are observed for bo th dN/deta and <Nch>, consistent with a thermal particle production mechanism for the bulk of the soft particles produced in all of these systems. They also validate an essential role for quark participants in these collisions. The scaled values for dN/deta and <Nch> are observed to factorize into contributions which depend on log(Root_s) and the number of nucleon or quark participant pairs (Npp). Quantification of these contributions give expressions which serve to systematize dN/deta and <Nch> measurements spanning nearly four orders of magnitude in Root_s, and to predict their values as a function of Root_s and Npp.
Results of the SND experiment at the VEPP-2M e+ e- collider on the QED processes e+ e- --> e+ e- gamma and e+ e- --> e+ e- gamma gamma with production at large angles are presented. Energy and angular distributions of the final particles were studied . No deviations from QED with an accuracy of 3.8% for the first process and 10.3% for the second were found.
