U.S.-Mexico Cooperative Agreement for E791 and Pixel Research at Fermilab

0086456 Shef这是一个美国-墨西哥的研究项目，用于实验基本粒子物理领域的研究。这项研究将主要涉及对现有数据的分析，但也将合作为费米实验室拟议的BteV实验开发辐射硬像素探测器。这种类型的探测器可能是费米实验室中发展最快、最具革命性的探测器类型。E791实验的主要目的是研究魅力衰变物理。它提供了一个独特的机会来研究总截面和微分截面作为入射粒子种类和靶材的函数。然而，E791的统计数据大约是E769的50倍，这项新的研究旨在改善所谓的黄金魅力模式的横截面测量。

0086456 SheaffThis is a US-Mexico research project for a study in the field of experimental elementary particle physics. The research will involve primarily the analysis of data already in existence, but also cooperation on the development of radiation hard pixel detectors for the proposed BteV experiments at Fermilab. This type of detector is probably the most rapidly developing and revolutionary type of detector used in Fermilab. The main goal of experiment E791 was to study charm decay Physics. It provided a unique opportunity to study total and differential cross sections as functions of the incident particle species and target material. However, the statistics available in E791 are some 50 times greater than in E769, and this new study aims to improve the cross section measurements for the so-called golden modes of charm.
