The BES detector
Abstract The Beijing Spectrometer (BES) is a general purpose solenoidal detector at the Beijing Electron Positron Collider (BEPC). It is designed to study exclusive final states in e + e − annihilations at the center of mass energy from 3.0 to 5.6 GeV. This requires large solid angle coverage combined with good charged particle momentum resolution, good particle identification and high photon detection efficiency at low energies. In this paper we describe the construction and the performance of BES detector.

The Muon Filter of the L3 detector
Abstract In this article we describe the outer part (Muon Filter) of the Hadron Calorimeter of the L3 detector. Construction and performance of the brass chambers, which form the sensitive part of the detector, are reviewed. We also report the results from data taken on two beam tests, at CERN.

Partial wave analysis of ψ(2S) → $p\overline{p}η$
Using a sample of 1.06 x 10(8) psi(2) events collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII, the decay psi(2S) -> p (p) over bar eta is studied. A partial wave analysis determines that the intermediate state N(1535) with a mass of 1524 +/- 5(-4)(+10) MeV/c(2) and a width of 130(-24-10)(+27+57) MeV/c(2) is dominant in the decay; the product branching fraction is determined to be B(psi(2S) -> N(1535)(p) over bar x B(N(1535) -> p eta + c.c. = 5.2 +/- 0.3(-1.2)(+3.2)) x 10(-5). Furthermore, the branching fraction of psi(2S) -> p (p) over bar eta is measured to be (6.4 +/- 0.2 +/- 0.6) x 10(-5). Here, the first error is statistical and the second is systematic.

Aerogel Cherenkov counter for the BELLE experiment
In the BELLE experiment at KEKB, a threshold Cherenkov counter system based on silica aerogels will be used to provide πK separation in the momentum region from 0.8 to 3.5 GeV/c. The detector design, recent progress in R&D and results of beam tests are reviewed.

Front-end Electronics for the ALICE Calorimeters
Abstract The ALICE calorimeters PHOS and EMCal are based on Avalanche Photo-Diode (APD) photosensors with Charge Sensitive Preamplifiers (CSP) for readout of the scintillating elements. The amplified signals are read out via 32-channel shaper/digitizer front-end electronics (FEE) with 14-bit effective dynamic range. The electronics is based on second order shapers with dual gain for each channel, getting digitized by ALTRO chips. Each APD channel is equipped with an individual 10-bit APD gain adjustment and 2 × 2 channel clusters generate a 100 ns shaped analog sums output (Fast OR) for the associated Trigger Region Units (TRU). The Fast OR signals are generated by first order shapers with a dynamic range of 12-bit given by the ADC in the TRU cards. Board controller firmware in the FPGA provides local monitoring and configuration of all parameters via the ALICE DCS system. The signal to noise ratio for MIP at 215  MeV is ∼ 7 per channel with a noise level of 30 MeV at room temperature for a dynamic range of 80 GeV for PHOS, and the fast-OR RMS noise level is about 75 MeV for a dynamic range of 250 GeV for EMCal.

Linear growth of entanglement entropy in holographic thermalization captured by horizon interiors and mutual information
A bstractWe study the holographic entanglement entropy in a homogeneous falling shell background, which is dual to the strongly coupled field theory following a global quench. For d=2 conformal field theories, it is known that the entropy has a linear growth regime if the scale of the entangling region is large. In addition, the growth rate approaches a constant when the scale increases. We demonstrate analytically that this behavior is directly related to the part of minimal area surface probing the interior of apparent horizons in the bulk, as well as the mutual information between two disjoint rectangular subsystems in the boundary. Furthermore, we show numerically that all the results are universal for the d=3 conformal field theory, the non-relativistic scale-invariant theory and the dual theory of Gauss-Bonnet gravity.
