To our knowledge, this is the widest range of momenta in which any calorimeter system has been studied. These tests, carried out at the H2 beam-line at CERN, provide a wealth of information, especially at low energies. The analysis of the differences in calorimeter response to charged pions, kaons, protons and antiprotons and a detailed discussion of the underlying phenomena are presented. We also show techniques that apply corrections to the signals from the considerably different electromagnetic (EB) and hadronic (HB) barrel calorimeters in reconstructing the energies of hadrons. Above 5 GeV/c, these corrections improve the energy resolution of the combined system where the stochastic term equals 84.7 ± 1.6% and the constant term is 7.4 ± 0.8%. The corrected mean response remains constant within 1.3% rms. © Springer-Verlag / Società Italiana di Fisica 2009.Conference Object Native and Light Induced Defect States in Wide Band Gap Hydrogenated Amorphous Silicon-Carbon (a-Si1 : H) Alloy Thin Films(Springer, 1997) Güneş, MehmetIn this study, wide band gap a-Si1-x C-x:H alloy thin films prepared with and without hydrogen diluation of (SiH4, CH4) were characterized using optical absorption, dark conductivity, steady-state photoconductivity, sub-bandgap absorption obtained with both photothermal deflection spectroscopy (PDS) and dual beam photoconductivity (DBP), and electron spin resonance (ESR) techniques. Experimental results of steady-state photoconductivity and sub-bandgap absorption for different generation rates were analyzed using a detailed numerical model based on Simmons-Taylor statistics. The densities, energy location and nature of the native and light induced defect states in diluted and undiluted a-Si1-xCx:H alloy thin films were derived from the best fits to the experimental data. The extracted parameters for defect states were compared with those of a-Si:H films both in the annealed and light degraded states.Conference Object Can Cpt Be Violated Through Extended Time Reversal?(World Scientific Publishing, 2001) Erdem, Recai; Ufuktepe, ÜnalWe consider the implications of the extension of time reversal through Wigner types and group extensions. We clarify its physical content and apply the results in a toy model. Finally we point out the possibility of violation of CPT in this framework.Conference Object Probing the Density of States of High Temperature Superconductors With Point Contact Tunneling Spectroscopy(Springer Verlag, 2005) Özyüzer, Lütfi; Zasadzinski, John F.; Miyakawa, Nobuaki; Gray, Kenneth E.Tunneling spectroscopy measurements are performed on single crystals of single CuO2 layer Tl2Ba2CuO6+delta, double CuO2 layer Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+delta (Bi2212) and polycrystal quadruple CuO2 layer CuBa2Ca3Cu4O12+delta using the point contact tunneling technique. I-V and dI/dV-V characteristics are obtained at 4.2 K. In spite of different number of layers and T-c values, all three high-T-c superconductors exhibit similar spectral features including dip and hump features reminiscent of strong-coupling effects in conventional superconductors. The doping dependence of Bi2212 is studied and several effects of the hole concentration on spectral features are found. A novel effect is that the energy gap increases in the underdoped region even as T-c decreases. Combining the doping dependence of the energy gap and the dip energy provides additional information in order to understand the mechanism of high-T-c superconductivity. Point contact tunneling studies of the doping dependence of the energy gap in Bi2212 also helped to understand local variations of the gap magnitude observed by scanning tunneling microscopy, indicating that this type of spectroscopy is an integral part of the tunneling technique.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Photometric Multi-Site Campaign on Massive B Stars in the Open Cluster Chi Persei (ngc 884)(IOP Publishing, 2008) Saesen, S.; Pigulski, A.; Carrier, F.; De Ridder, J.; Aerts, C.; Handler, G.; Drummond, R.; Kalomeni, BelindaIn 2005 a photometric observation campaign started on the open cluster chi Persei, involving 13 telescopes spread over the whole northern hemisphere. After two years we gathered almost 1200 hours of data. We present here preliminary results on the variability search, especially from the 60-cm telescope in Bialkow (Poland), which show seven confirmed beta Cephei stars, four candidate B-type pulsators and other interesting variable stars.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 7Carbon Deposition on the Stainless Steels Substrates Using Pulsed Plasma(National Institute of Optoelectronics, 2008) Pat, Suat; Balbağ, Zafer; Cenik, I.; Ekem, Naci; Okur, Salih; Vladoiu, Rodica; Musa, GeavitWe have developed a generic method for carbon deposition method for any substrates from methane pulsed plasma. The generic method has been developed for carbon deposition on the stainless steels substrates using pulsed methane plasma. Pulsed plasma was produced at atmospheric pressure methane gas and room temperatures. Methane plasma was generated using with 25kV, 25kHz pulsed power supply. Discharge current approximately 300 mA. Stainless steels probes hold in the 32mm from the methane plasma. Probes dimensions were phi=30mm, h=8mm and 4 mm.Conference Object Reactive Ion Beam Etching of Superconducting Bi2212 by Ta/Pr and Pr'/ta/pr Masks for the Generation of Thz Waves(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2009) Köseoğlu, Hasan; Türkoğlu, Fulya; Demirhan, Yasemin; Meriç Polster, Zeynep; Özyüzer, LütfiGeneration of powerful THz radiation from intrinsic Josephson Junctions (Ills) of Bi(2)Sr(2)CaCu(2)O(8+delta) (Bi2212) may require mesas with large lateral dimension. However, there are difficulties in fabrication of perfect rectangular mesas. Mesa lateral angles should be close to 90 degrees to obtain IJJs with same planar dimensions for synchronization of IJJs. Since thick photoresist (PR) layer shades the lateral dimension of mesa during ion beam etching, we patterned Ta/PR and PR'/Ta/PR masks on Bi2212 and used selective ion etching to overcome this problem. The reactive ion beam etchings have done with ion beam of Ar, N(2) and O(2) and we have obtained mesas about 1 mu m with lateral angle of approximately 50 to 75 degrees which is better than the mesas fabricated with single layer mask.Article Citation - WoS: 13Noise in Hydrogenated Amorphous Silicon(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2002) Johanson, Robert E.; Güneş, Mehmet; Kasap, Safa O.Published work on conductance fluctuations in hydrogenated amorphous silicon is surveyed. There are many reports of 1/f noise. some describing unusual features Such as non-Gaussian statistics. The relative insensitivity to doping and temperature is highlighted. In addition to the 1/f noise. random-telegraph-like noise is often reported. The successes and failures of generation-recombination models for 1 f noise and current filament models for the telegraph noise are summarised.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 6Variation of the Light and Period of the Magnetic Cataclysmic Variable Am Her(IOP Publishing, 2008) Kalomeni, Belinda; Yakut, KadriGround-based, long-term optic variability of AM Her, covering the period between 2003-2008, has been conducted to study the features seen in both low and high states of the system. Low-state analysis shows the presence of short-term, low-amplitude light variations of about 0.02-0.03 mag with a mean power time between 16 s and 226 s. Brightness variations on the order of 0.7-2 mag, which could be due to the stellar activity of the component in the system, are also detected. A total of 30 years' times of minimum light given in the literature are combined with nine times of minima obtained in this study. We represented the (observed-calculated) diagram by a parabolic curve and also by two broken lines. Under the assumption of a parabolic variation, we estimate an increase in period, dP/dt = 7.5(1.2) x 10(-9) days yr(-1), with a mass transfer rate of. M = 8(2) x 10(-9) M(circle dot) yr(-1), in agreement with the previous findings by a different method.Article Citation - WoS: 38Citation - Scopus: 40Influences of Deposition Time and Ph on Magnetic Nife Nanowires Fabrication(Elsevier, 2009) Atalay, Funda E.; Kaya, Harun; Atalay, Selcuk; Tarı, SüleymanIn this work, NiFe nanowires were grown into highly ordered porous anodic alumina oxide (AAO) templates by dc electrodeposition at various deposition times and pH values. During the deposition process some electrochemical bath parameters such as ion content, deposition voltage, and temperature of solution were kept constant. The morphological properties of the nanowire arrays were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), the chemical composition was determined by examination of the energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectra, and the magnetic behavior of the arrays was determined by vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM).
