TL;DR: HERA halo target inside the HERA proton ring is used to generate the B mesons in 820 GeV proton-nucleus interactions as mentioned in this paper, and the feasibility of the high rate target operation and the design and status of the detector are discussed.
Abstract: HERA-B is a xed target experiment dedicated to study CP violation in the decay of neutral B mesons into the "gold plated" decay mode B 0 ! J==K 0 s. A halo target inside the HERA proton ring is used to generate the B mesons in 820 GeV proton-nucleus interactions. This article reviews the goals and expected performance of the experiment, the feasibility of the high rate target operation and the design and status of the detector.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a new measurement of the total photoproduction cross section performed with the H1 detector at HERA, for an average center of mass energy of 200 GeV, and obtained a value of σtotλp=165±2±11µb.
Abstract: We present a new measurement of the total photoproduction cross section performed with the H1 detector at HERA. For an average centre of mass energy of 200 GeV a value of σtotλp=165±2±11µb has been obtained. A detailed analysis of the data in adequate kinematic regions enabled a decomposition of the total cross section in its elastic, single diffractive dissociation and remaining non-diffractive parts, based on safe assumptions on the double diffractive dissociation contribution.

This network type is best suited for a hardware implementation and special VLSI chips are available which are used in fast trigger processors.

TL;DR: In this article, the partial decay width of the ϒ(4S) resonance and its partial width into electrons were measured with the detector ARGUS at the DORISII of DESY.
Abstract: The partial decay width into electrons, Γ ee , of the ϒ(1S) and ϒ(2S) resonances have been measured with the detector ARGUS at thee+e− storage ring DORISII of DESY. Applying the formula of Kuraev and Fadin for the radiative corrections we find: Γ ee (ϒ(1S))= (1.32±0.04±0.03) keV and Γ ee (ϒ(2S))=(0.52±0.03±0.01) keV. The total decay width of the ϒ(4S) resonance and its partial width into electrons have been determined as well. Fitting the data with a generalized Breit-Wigner function with an energy dependent decay width Γ(s) and a mass shift functionm(s), we obtain the following resonance parameters: Γ(M2)=(10.0±2.8±2.7) MeV, Γ ee =(0.28±0.05±0.01)keV andB ee =(2.77±0.50±0.49)·10−5. We argue that the disagrecment of this result with the world average originates from our more adequate parametrization of the observed ϒ(4S) resonance cross section.

TL;DR: It is proposed to use an artificial neural network (ANN) for the L2 trigger based on the CNAPS-1064 chip available from Adaptive Solutions, (Oregon, USA) and the intrinsic parallelism of the ANN algorithm together with the dedicated hardware offers fast processing of the trigger informations.
Abstract: Triggering at the HERA ep collider is challenging because of the high bunch crossing rate and an expected large background. In the H1 experiment, a trigger decision is made in four steps (level 1–4), stepwise decreasing the event rate and allowing for more sophisticated trigger decisions. The time available for L2 is about 20 μs. We have proposed to use an artificial neural network (ANN) for the L2 trigger based on the CNAPS-1064 chip available from Adaptive Solutions, (Oregon, USA). The intrinsic parallelism of the ANN algorithm together with the dedicated hardware offers fast processing of the trigger informations. The trigger system uses up to 10 decision units, each consisting of a Pattern Recognition Module (PRM) and a Data Distribution Board (DDB). A DDB receives the L2 data stream and generates the network inputs used by the algorithms on the PRM. A PRM is a commercial VME board carrying the CNAPS processors.

TL;DR: In this paper, the parton densities in the photon have been derived from measurements of the photon structure function and of jet production in two-photon and photoproduction processes.
Abstract: The parton densities in the photon have been derived from measurements of the photon structure function and of jet production in two-photon and photoproduction processes. Recent analyses by the H1 and ZEUS collaborations show that hard photoproduction processes at HERA allow to determine the gluon density down to x values of 10−2. For a discrimination of different models the systematic uncertainties in these analyses have still to be reduced.

TL;DR: In this paper, a fast second level trigger has been developed for the ARGUS experiment which recognizes tracks originating from the interaction region, which is able to reject tracks originating in the wall of the narrow beampipe of 10.5mm radius.
Abstract: A fast second level trigger has been developed for the ARGUS experiment which recognizes tracks originating from the interaction region. The processor compares the hits in the ARGUS Micro Vertex Drift Chamber to 245760 masks stored in random access memories. The masks which are fully defined in three dimensions are able to reject tracks originating in the wall of the narrow beampipe of 10.5\,mm radius.
