PEPX-type lattice design and optimization for the High Energy Photon Source
A new generation of storage ring-based light source, called diffraction-limited storage ring (DLSR), with the emittance approaching the diffraction limit for multi-keV photons by using the multi-bend achromat lattice, has attracted worldwide and extensive studies of several laboratories, and been seriously considered as a goal of upgrading the existing facilities in the imminent future. Among various DLSR proposals, the PEPX design based on the third-order achromat concept and with the special design of a high-beta injection straight section demonstrated that, it is feasible to achieve sufficient ring acceptance for off-axis injection in a DLSR. For the High Energy Photon Source planned to be built in Beijing, PEPX-type lattice has been designed and continuously improved. In this paper, we report the evolution of the PEPX-type design, and discuss the main issues relevant to the linear optics design and nonlinear optimization.

General conditions for self-cancellation of geometric aberrations in a lattice structure
In this paper we will discuss the general conditions for self-cancellation of geometric aberrations in an uncoupled or even coupled lattice structure. The self-cancellation conditions show that - I transformer even noninterleaved multipoles is not necessary. We will also give two examples for sextupole case to specify the application.

Transfer matrices of dipoles with bending radius variation
With the increasing demand of high brightness in light source, the uniform dipole can not meet the needs of low emittance, and thus the dipole with bending radius variation is introduced in this paper. The transfer matrix of a non-uniform dipole whose bending radius is linearly changed is chosen as an example and a very simple calculation formula of non-uniform dipole transfer matrices is given. The transfer matrices of some common profile non-uniform dipoles are also listed. The comparison of these transfer matrices and the matrices calculated with slices method verifies the numerical accuracy of this formula. This method can make the non-uniform beam dynamic problem simpler, very helpful for emittance research and lattice design with non-uniform dipoles.

DESIGN OF BEAM TRANSPORT LINE FROM RCS TO TARGET FOR CSNS
China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) uses the high energy proton beam to strike the Tungsten target to generate neutrons through spallation reaction. The proton beam is extracted from the Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS), whose beam power reaches 100 kW. For the sake of target lifetime, beam distribution at the target surface is required as uniform as possible. Nonlinear beam density redistribution method with two octupole magnets has been studied. Also some simulation and theoretical calculation have been done. According to the simulation result, the beam density at the target is optimized and the beam loss is under control.

LATTICE DESIGN FOR THE BEPCII STORAGE RING
BEPCII, the upgrading project of the BEPC, has been being designed with a luminosity of 10 33 cm -2 s -1 at the J/ψ energy. It still keeps the potential to provide beams as a synchrotron radiation (SR) facility. The storage rings for collision contain a positron and an electron ring and the ring for dedicated SR uses the outer parts of the two rings. To fit all the conditions either on beam or on space limit, lattices are carefully designed for both high energy physics and SR experiments with sufficient dynamic apertures and high efficiencies for injection. The features of the lattices are also discussed in the paper. 1 DESIGN REQUIREMENTS BEPCII is an upgrade project of the Beijing ElectronPositron Collider (BEPC), in which a new inner ring will be installed inside the old one. It will provide colliding beams with the center-of-mass energy from 1.0GeV×2 to 2.0GeV×2 and also the dedicated synchrotron radiation beam with 2.5 GeV. For the colliding beams the luminosity is optimized at 1.89 GeV with 1×10 33 cm -2 s -1 . For the dedicated synchrotron radiation beam, the current is 250 mA with an emittance as low as possible. There have been several beam-lines in the BEPC for the synchrotron radiation experiments, so the current bending magnets and insertion devices in the southern region have to be fixed at their present positions. In order to increase the average luminosity, the “topoff” injection scheme up to 1.89 GeV is adopted. This requires that the injection and collision optics must be the same. The main parameters are shown in Tables 1 and 2.

STUDY OF ANGULAR DISTRIBUTION OF HELIUM PROJECTILE FRAGMENTS IN INTERACTIONS OF 200 A GeV 32S IONS WITH EMULSION NUCLEI
This paper presents data on the emission of helium fragments due to break up of 200 A GeV 32S ions in collision with emulsion nuclei. A total of 499 minimum bias events have been studied in an emulsion stack and 97 events in emulsion chambers. Emission angles of He fragments have been measured with high precision. This data has been compared with data of breakup of heavier as well as lighter projectiles and we observe that the value of the momentum spread, σ(p), increases with increasing projectile mass. The bulk part of the helium emission is consistent with a single source for helium fragments with an average excitation energy of (9.1±0.9) MeV. A tail of a few (<1%) He fragments with higher momenta is observed.

Study of jet shapes in inclusive jet production in pp collisions at sqrt[s]=7 TeV using the ATLAS detector
Jet shapes have been measured in inclusive jet production in proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV using 3 pb^{-1} of data recorded by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC. Jets are reconstructed using the anti-kt algorithm with transverse momentum 30 GeV < pT < 600 GeV and rapidity in the region |y| < 2.8. The data are corrected for detector effects and compared to several leading-order QCD matrix elements plus parton shower Monte Carlo predictions, including different sets of parameters tuned to model fragmentation processes and underlying event contributions in the final state. The measured jets become narrower with increasing jet transverse momentum and the jet shapes present a moderate jet rapidity dependence. Within QCD, the data test a variety of perturbative and non-perturbative effects. In particular, the data show sensitivity to the details of the parton shower, fragmentation, and underlying event models in the Monte Carlo generators. For an appropriate choice of the parameters used in these models, the data are well described.

Light hadron physics
Our knowledge about the structure of matter and the nature of the interactions between its constituent components follows a hierarchy that closely tracks the evolution of experimental measurements from low to higher and higher energies. For example, with an electron beam of a given energy, one can access the microscopic structure of matter at length scales corresponding to the de-Brogie wave length of the electrons that are being used: λ = 2π × 197.3 Mev·fm/Eγ, were Eγ is the energy of the photon that is exchanged in the experimentally observed process. As the energy of the beams that are available get higher and higher, the sizes of objects that can be probed get smaller and smaller…

Search for quark contact interactions in dijet angular distributions in pp collisions at s=7 TeV measured with the ATLAS detector
Dijet angular distributions from the first LHC pp collisions at center-of-mass energy sqrt(s) = 7 TeV have been measured with the ATLAS detector. The dataset used for this analysis represents an integrated luminosity of 3.1 pb-1. Dijet $\chi$ distributions and centrality ratios have been measured up to dijet masses of 2.8 TeV, and found to be in good agreement with Standard Model predictions. Analysis of the $\chi$ distributions excludes quark contact interactions with a compositeness scale $\Lambda$ below 3.4 TeV, at 95% confidence level, significantly exceeding previous limits.

Calibration and performances of the KLOE calorimeter
Abstract The KLOE experiment uses a fine sampling lead-scintillating fibre calorimeter to measure energy, time and position of neutral and charged particles. The overall detector consists of 88 modules organised in a barrel and two end-caps, for a total granularity of 2440 cells, read-out by photo-multipliers at both fibre ends. The chosen design of a high sampling fraction with the usage of thin lead layers and fast scintillating fibres allows to reach good efficiency for photon energies down to few MeV, good energy resolution and excellent time resolution. The design, calibration and performances of the calorimeter on efficiency, time/position/energy resolution and particle identification is reviewed. The overall calorimeter impact on kaon tagging and on physics results is also presented.
