We have studied exclusive, radiative B meson decays to charmless mesons in 9.7x10(6) B&Bmacr; decays accumulated with the CLEO detector. We measure B(B0-->K(*0)(892)gamma) = (4.55(+0.72)(-0. 68)+/-0.34)x10(-5) and B(B+-->K(*+)(892)gamma) = (3.76(+0.89)(-0. 83)+/-0.28)x10(-5). We have searched for CP asymmetry in B-->K(*)(892)gamma decays and measure A(CP) = +0.08+/-0.13+/-0.03. We report the first observation of B-->K(*)(2)(1430)gamma decays with a branching fraction of (1.66(+0.59)(-0.53)+/-0.13)x10(-5). No evidence for the decays B-->rhogamma and B0-->omegagamma is found and we limit B(B-->(rho/omega)gamma)/B(B-->K(*)(892)gamma)<0.32 at 90% C.L.

Using the entire CLEO-c ψ(3770)→DD¯ event sample, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 818 pb−1 and approximately 5.4×106 DD¯ events, we present a study of the decays D0→π−e+νe, D0→K−e+νe, D+→π0e+νe, and D+→K¯0e+νe. Via a tagged analysis technique, in which one D is fully reconstructed in a hadronic mode, partial rates for semileptonic decays by the other D are measured in several q2 bins. We fit these rates using several form factor parametrizations and report the results, including form factor shape parameters and the branching fractions B(D0→π−e+νe)=(0.288±0.008±0.003)%, B(D0→K−e+νe)=(3.50±0.03±0.04)%, B(D+→π0e+νe)=(0.405±0.016±0.009)%, and B(D+→K¯0e+νe)=(8.83±0.10±0.20)%, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. Taking input from lattice quantum chromodynamics, we also find |Vcd|=0.234±0.007±0.002±0.025 and |Vcs|=0.985±0.009±0.006±0.103, where the third uncertainties are from lattice quantum chromodynamics.4 MoreReceived 16 June 2009DOI:https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.80.032005©2009 American Physical Society

Using $2.45\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{7}$ $\ensuremath{\psi}(2S)$ decays collected with the CLEO-c detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring we present the most precise measurements of magnetic dipole transitions in the charmonium system. We measure $\mathcal{B}\mathbf{(}\ensuremath{\psi}(2S)\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\gamma}{\ensuremath{\eta}}_{c}\mathbf{)}=(4.32\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.16\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.60)\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}3}$, $\mathcal{B}(J/\ensuremath{\psi}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\gamma}{\ensuremath{\eta}}_{c})/\mathcal{B}\mathbf{(}\ensuremath{\psi}(2S)\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\gamma}{\ensuremath{\eta}}_{c}\mathbf{)}=4.59\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.23\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.64$, and $\mathcal{B}(J/\ensuremath{\psi}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\gamma}{\ensuremath{\eta}}_{c})=(1.98\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.09\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.30)%$. We observe a distortion in the ${\ensuremath{\eta}}_{c}$ line shape due to the photon-energy dependence of the magnetic dipole transition rate. We find that measurements of the ${\ensuremath{\eta}}_{c}$ mass are sensitive to the line shape, suggesting an explanation for the discrepancy between measurements of the ${\ensuremath{\eta}}_{c}$ mass in radiative transitions and other production mechanisms.

We examine e + e -→ D - s D * + s and D * - s D + s interactions at 4170 MeV using the CLEO-c detector in order to measure the decay constant f D + s with good precision.Previously our measurements were substantially higher than the most precise lattice based QCD calculation of (241±3) MeV.Here we use the D + s → ℓ + ν channel, where the ℓ + designates either a µ + or a τ + , when the τ + → π + ν.Analyzing both modes independently, we determine B(D + s → µ + ν) = (0.565± 0.045± 0.017)%, and B(D + s → τ + ν) = (6.42± 0.81 ± 0.18)%.We also analyze them simultaneously to find an effective value of B eff (D + s → µ + ν) = (0.591±0.037±0.018)%and f D + s = (263.3±8.2±3.9)MeV.Combining with the CLEO-c value determined independently using D + s → τ + ν, τ + → e + ν ν decays, we extract f D + s = (259.5 ± 6.6 ± 3.1) MeV.Combining with our previous determination of B(D + → µ + ν), we extract the ratio f D + s /f D + = 1.26 ± 0.06 ± 0.02.No evidence is found for a CP asymmetry between Γ(D + s → µ + ν) and Γ(D - s → µ -ν); specifically the fractional difference in rates is measured to be (4.8±6.1)%.Finally, we find B(D + s → e + ν) < 1.2 × 10 -4 at 90% confidence level.

The E731 experiment at Fermilab has searched for direct CP violation in K0→ππ, which is parametrized by ɛ'/ɛ. For the first time all four of the KL,S→ππ modes were collected simultaneously, which greatly facilitated studies of systematic uncertainty. We find Re(ɛ'/ɛ)=-0.0004±0.0014(stat)±0.0006(syst). The result provides no evidence for direct CP violation.Received 18 December 1989DOI:https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.64.1491©1990 American Physical Society

We measure the cross section for e+e- -->psi(3770) -->hadrons at Ec.m.=3773 MeV to be (6.38+/-0.08(+0.41)(-0.30) nb using the CLEO detector at the CESR e+e- collider. The difference between this and the e+e- -->psi(3770) -->DD cross section at the same energy is found to be (-0.01+/-0.08(+0.41)(-0.30) nb. With the observed total cross section, we extract Gamma(ee)(psi(3770))=(0.204+/-0.003(+0.041)(-0.027) keV. Uncertainties shown are statistical and systematic, respectively.

We present measurements of D--> KS0 pi and D--> KL0 pi branching fractions using 281 pb(-1) of psi(3770) data at the CLEO-c experiment. We find that B(D0--> KS0 pi 0) is larger than B(D0--> KL0 pi 0), with an asymmetry of R(D0)=0.108+/-0.025+/-0.024. For B(D+--> KS0 pi+) and B(D+--> KL0 pi+), we observe no measurable difference; the asymmetry is R(D+)=0.022+/-0.016+/-0.018. The D0 asymmetry is consistent with the value based on the U-spin prediction A(D0--> K0 pi 0)/A(D0--> K0 pi 0)=-tan2 theta C, where theta C is the Cabibbo angle.

Using CLEO data, we study the production of the antideuteron, ¯d, in Υ(nS) resonance decays and the nearby continuum. The branching ratios obtained are Bdir(Υ(1S)→¯dX)=(3.36±0.23±0.25)×10−5, B(Υ(1S)→¯dX)=(2.86±0.19±0.21)×10−5, and B(Υ(2S)→¯dX)=(3.37±0.50±0.25)×10−5, where the "dir" superscript indicates that decays produced via reannihilation of the b¯b pair to a γ∗ are removed from both the signal and the normalizing number of Υ(1S) decays in order to isolate direct decays of the Υ(1S) to ggg, ggγ. Upper limits at 90% C.L. are given for B(Υ(4S)→¯dX)<1.3×10−5, and continuum production σ(e+e−→¯dX)<0.031 pb. The Υ(2S) data is also used to extract a limit on χbJ→¯dX. The results indicate enhanced deuteron production in ggg, ggγ hadronization compared to γ∗→q¯q. Baryon number compensation is also investigated with the large Υ(1S)→¯dX sample.Received 10 December 2006DOI:https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.75.012009©2007 American Physical Society

We present a comprehensive treatment of the precise determinations of the parameters Re$({\ensuremath{\varepsilon}}^{\ensuremath{'}}/\ensuremath{\varepsilon})$, ${\ensuremath{\tau}}_{\mathrm{S}},$ $\ensuremath{\Delta}m$, ${\ensuremath{\varphi}}_{+\ensuremath{-}},$ and $\ensuremath{\Delta}\ensuremath{\varphi}$ in the neutral kaon system with the Fermilab E731 detector. Together, these determinations allow accurate studies of both $\mathrm{CP}$ and $\mathrm{CPT}$ symmetry. Details of the detector and its performance and the data analysis are given. The extensive Monte Carlo simulation of the detector and comparison with data are also presented.

We measure the absolute branching fractions of Ds semileptonic decays where the hadron in the final state is one of ϕ, η, η′, K0S, K⋆0, and f0, using 2.8×105 e+e−→DsD⋆s decays collected in the CLEO-c detector at a center-of-mass energy close to 4170 MeV. We obtain B(D+s→ϕe+νe)=(2.29±0.37±0.11)%, B(D+s→ηe+νe)=(2.48±0.29±0.13)%, B(D+s→η′e+νe)=(0.91±0.33±0.05)%, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. We also obtain B(D+s→K0e+νe)=(0.37±0.10±0.02)%, and B(D+s→K⋆0e+νe)=(0.18±0.07±0.01)%, which are the first measurements of Cabibbo suppressed exclusive Ds semileptonic decays, and, B(D+s→f0e+νe)×B(f0→π+π−)=(0.13±0.04±0.01)%. This is the first absolute product branching fraction determination for a semileptonic decay including a scalar meson in the final state.Received 3 March 2009DOI:https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.80.052007©2009 American Physical Society

Using a data sample of 2.59 x 10^7 psi(2S) decays obtained with the CLEO-c detector, we perform amplitude analyses of the complementary decay chains chi_c1 -> eta pi+ pi- and chi_c1 -> eta' pi+ pi-. We find evidence for a P-wave eta' pi scattering amplitude, which, if interpreted as a resonance, would have exotic J^PC = 1^-+ and parameters consistent with the pi_1(1600) state reported in other production mechanisms. We also make the first observation of the decay a_0(980) -> eta' pi and measure the ratio of branching fractions B(a_0(980) -> eta' pi)/B(a_0(980) -> eta pi) = 0.064 +- 0.014 +- 0.014. The pi pi spectrum produced with a recoiling eta is compared to that with eta' recoil.

Using the CLEO II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we have searched for flavor changing neutral currents and lepton family number violations in ${D}^{0}$ meson decays. The upper limits on the branching fractions for ${D}^{0}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\ell}}^{+}{\ensuremath{\ell}}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ and ${D}^{0}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{X}^{0}{\ensuremath{\ell}}^{+}{\ensuremath{\ell}}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ are in the range ${10}^{\ensuremath{-}5}$ to ${10}^{\ensuremath{-}4}$, where ${X}^{0}$ can be a ${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}$, ${K}_{s}^{0}$, $\ensuremath{\eta}$, ${\ensuremath{\rho}}^{0}$, $\ensuremath{\omega}$, ${\overline{K}}^{*0}$, or $\ensuremath{\varphi}$ meson, and the ${\ensuremath{\ell}}^{+}{\ensuremath{\ell}}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ pair can be ${e}^{+}{e}^{\ensuremath{-}}$, ${\ensuremath{\mu}}^{+}{\ensuremath{\mu}}^{\ensuremath{-}}$, or ${e}^{\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}}{\ensuremath{\mu}}^{\ensuremath{\mp}}$. Although these limits are above the theoretical predictions, most are new or an order of magnitude lower than previous limits.

We report on a search for CP asymmetry in the singly Cabibbo-suppressed decay D+→K+K−π+ using a data sample of 818 pb−1 accumulated with the CLEO-c detector on the ψ(3770) resonance. A Dalitz-plot analysis is used to determine the amplitudes of the intermediate states. We find no evidence for CP violation either in specific two-body amplitudes or integrated over the entire phase space. The CP asymmetry in the latter case is measured to be (−0.03±0.84±0.29)%.Received 28 July 2008DOI:https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.78.072003©2008 American Physical Society

We search and find no evidence for CP violation in tau decays into the K(pi)nu(tau) final state. We provide limits on the imaginary part of the coupling constant Lambda describing a relative contribution of the CP violating processes with respect to the standard model to be -0.172<Im(Lambda)<0.067 at 90% C.L.

Using a large sample (~11800 events) of D^+ into K^- pi^+ e^+ nu_e and D^+ into K^- pi^+ mu^+ nu_mu decays collected by the CLEO-c detector running at the psi(3770), we measure the helicity basis form factors free from the assumptions of spectroscopic pole dominance and provide new, accurate measurements of the absolute branching fractions for D^+ into K^- pi^+ e^+ nu_e and D^+ into K^- pi^+ mu^+ nu_mu decays. We find branching fractions which are consistent with previous world averages. Our measured helicity basis form factors are consistent with the spectroscopic pole dominance predictions for the three main helicity basis form factors describing D^+ into anti-K*0 ell^+ nu_mu decay. The ability to analyze D^+ into K^- pi^+ mu^+ nu_mu allows us to make the first non-parametric measurements of the mass-suppressed form factor. Our result is inconsistent with existing Lattice QCD calculations. Finally, we measure the form factor that controls non-resonant s-wave interference with the D^+ into anti-K*0 ell^+ nu_mu amplitude and search for evidence of possible additional non-resonant d-wave or f-wave interference with the anti-K*0.

Using data taken with the CLEO-c detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we have investigated the direct photon momentum spectrum in the decay J/psi->gamma+gluon+gluon, via the 'tagged' process: e+e- -> psi(2S); psi(2S)->J/psi pi+pi-; J/psi->photon + X. Including contributions from two-body radiative decay processes, we find the ratio of the inclusive direct photon branching fraction to that of the dominant three-gluon branching fraction to be R=0.137+/-0.001+/-0.016+/-0.004, where the errors shown are statistical, systematic, and the model-dependent uncertainty related to the extrapolation to zero photon energy. The shape of the scaled photon energy spectrum in J/psi->gg gamma is observed to be very similar to that of Upsilon(1S)->gg gamma. The R value obtained is roughly consistent with that expected by a simple quark-charge scaling of the value determined at the Upsilon(1S), but somewhat higher than the value expected from the running of the strong coupling constant.

Using a total of 2.74 x 10(7) decays of the psi(2S) collected with the CLEO-c detector, we present a study of chi(cJ)-->gammaV, where V=rho(0), omega, phi. The transitions chi(c1)-->gammarho(0 and chi(c1)-->gammaomega are observed with B(chi(c1)-->gammarho(0))=(2.43+/-0.19+/-0.22) x 10(-4) and B(chi(c1)-->gammaomega)=(8.3+/-1.5+/-1.2) x 10(-5). In the chi(c1)-->gammarho(0) transition, the final state meson is dominantly longitudinally polarized. Upper limits on the branching fractions of other chi(cJ) states to light vector mesons are presented.

A search for the rare decay mode ${K}_{L}$\ensuremath{\rightarrow}${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}$\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\gamma} was performed using a data set from Fermilab experiment E-731. The decay is of interest in the context of chiral perturbation theory and for its contribution to the decay ${K}_{L}$\ensuremath{\rightarrow}${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}$${e}^{+}$${e}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}}$. The result is B(${K}_{L}$\ensuremath{\rightarrow}${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}$\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\gamma})2.7 \ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}${10}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}6}$ (90% confidence level) which is nearly a two-order-of magnitude improvement over the previous best limit.

Using (9.32, 5.88) million $\ensuremath{\Upsilon}(2S,3S)$ decays taken with the CLEO III detector, we obtain five product branching fractions for the exclusive processes $\ensuremath{\Upsilon}(2S)\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\gamma}{\ensuremath{\chi}}_{b0,1,2}(1P)\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\Upsilon}(1S)$ and $\ensuremath{\Upsilon}(3S)\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\gamma}{\ensuremath{\chi}}_{b1,2}(1P)\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\Upsilon}(1S)$. We observe the transition ${\ensuremath{\chi}}_{b0}(1P)\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\Upsilon}(1S)$ for the first time. Using the known branching fractions for $\mathcal{B}[\ensuremath{\Upsilon}(2S)\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\gamma}{\ensuremath{\chi}}_{bJ}(1P)]$, we extract values for $\mathcal{B}[{\ensuremath{\chi}}_{bJ}(1P)\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\Upsilon}(1S)]$ for $J=0$, 1, 2. In turn, these values can be used to unfold the $\ensuremath{\Upsilon}(3S)$ product branching fractions to obtain values for $\mathcal{B}[\ensuremath{\Upsilon}(3S)\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\gamma}{\ensuremath{\chi}}_{b1,2}(1P)]$ for the first time individually. Comparison of these with each other and with the branching fraction $\mathcal{B}[\ensuremath{\Upsilon}(3S)\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\gamma}{\ensuremath{\chi}}_{b0}]$ previously measured by CLEO provides tests of relativistic corrections to electric dipole matrix elements.

Based upon the analysis of the complete data set of Fermilab experiment E-731, we report a new limit on the branching ratio of ${K}_{L}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}{e}^{+}{e}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ which is 7.5\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}${10}^{\ensuremath{-}9}$ (90% confidence).

Using 281 pb−1 of data collected with the CLEO-c detector at the ψ(3770) resonance, we have studied Cabibbo-suppressed decays of D mesons to final states with two kaons. We present results for the absolute branching fractions of the modes D0→K+K−, D0→KS0KS0, and D+→K+KS0. We measure B(D0→K+K−)=(4.08±0.08±0.09)×10−3, B(D0→KS0KS0)=(1.46±0.32±0.09)×10−4, and B(D+→K+KS0)=(3.14±0.09±0.08)×10−3. We also determine the ratio B(D0→K+K−)/B(D0→π+π−)=2.89±0.05±0.06. For each measurement, the first uncertainty is statistical and the second uncertainty is systematic.Received 4 March 2008DOI:https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.77.091106©2008 American Physical Society

We have observed a signal for the decay ${D}^{*+}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{D}^{+}\ensuremath{\gamma}$ at a significance of 4 standard deviations. From the measured branching ratio $B({D}^{*+}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{D}^{+}\ensuremath{\gamma})/B({D}^{*+}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{D}^{+}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0})\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}0.055\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.014\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.010$ we find $B({D}^{*+}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{D}^{+}\ensuremath{\gamma})\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}0.017\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.004\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.003,$ where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. We also report the highest precision determination of the remaining ${D}^{*+}$ branching fractions.

We study the inclusive decays of Ds+ mesons, using data collected near the Ds*+ Ds- peak production energy E_cm=4170 MeV by the CLEO-c detector. We report the inclusive yields of Ds+ decays to K^+ X, K^- X, KS0 X, pi^+ X, pi^- X, pi^0 X, eta X, eta' X, phi X, omega X and f0(980) X, and also decays into pairs of kaons, Ds+ -> KK-bar X. Using these measurements, we obtain an overview of Ds+ decays.

Cornell University has prototyped technology essential for any high brightness electron ERL. This includes a DC gun and an SRF injector Linac with world-record current and normalized brightness in a bunch train, a high-current CW cryomodule, a high-power beam stop, and several diagnostics tools for high-current and high-brightness beams, e.g. slid measurements for 6-D phase-space densities, a fast wire scanner for beam profiles, and beam loos diagnostics. All these are now available to equip a one-cryomodule ERL, and laboratory space has been cleared out and is radiation shielded to install this ERL at Cornell. BNL has designed a multi-turn ERL for eRHIC, where beam is transported more than 20 times around the RHIC tunnel. The number of transport lines is minimized by using two non-scaling (NS) FFAG arcs. A collaboration between BNL and Cornell has been formed to investigate the new NS-FFAG optics and the multi-turn eRHIC ERL design by building a 4-turn, one-cryomodule ERL at Cornell. It has a NS-FFAG return loop built with permanent magnets and is meant to accelerate 40mA beam to 200MeV.

The CANGAROO-III project,which consists of an array of four 10 m imaging Cherenkov telescopes,has just started being constructed in Woomera, South Australia,in a collaboration between Australia and Japan. The first stereoscopic observation of celestial high-energy gamma-rays in the 100 GeV region with two telescopes will start in 2002,and the four telescope array will be completed in 2004. The concept of the project and the expected performance are discussed.

We present a model-independent measurement of B(Ds−→ Φπ−)B(D0→ K−π+) by partially reconstructing the decay B0→ D∗+Ds∗−. Using data collected with the CLEO II detector at CESR, we determine B(Ds−→ Φπ−)B(D0→ K−π+)= 0.92 ± 0.20(stat.) ± 0.11(syst.). Our measurement of B(D0 → K−π+) then gives B(Ds− → Φπ−) = (3.59 ± 0.77 ± 0.48)%.

Reviewed by: Offended Sensibilities by Alisa Ganieva J. R. Patterson ALISA GANIEVA Offended Sensibilities Trans. Carol Apollonio. Dallas. Deep Vellum. 2022. 247 pages. THE PRESENT, DESCRIBED accurately enough, can later read like prophecy. That Offended Sensibilities, first published in Russia in 2018, feels ripped from the headlines of 2022 is equally a credit to Alisa Ganieva's attentiveness and an acknowledgment of our slip of attention to a decade of changes in Russian society. Of course, the invasion of Ukraine (here called the "Crimean conquest") goes back to 2014. Mentions of the conflict are few but pointed. When a teacher berates a classroom of youths dissatisfied with Russian society, she uses rhetoric that has become common to viewers of the news coverage on the Russia-1 TV network: "Revolution? Blood? Is that what you want? You want it to be like in Ukraine?" The book's title comes from the 2013 blasphemy law that broadly outlawed "defying society" and "insulting religious beliefs." Upon this basis, Ganieva builds a story that shows the many ways in which the ability to widely interpret offense allows the authorities to wield a powerful instrument of calculated mayhem. Nearly anything can fall under the purview of offense: plays considered too racy get canceled, crowds are labeled terrorists, tutors are censured. Police intervention is everywhere, and denunciation is de rigueur. In an unnamed provincial town, the death of a corrupt local politician kicks off an interweaving storyline, part mystery, part thriller. We follow several characters, each struggling in a world where wiles far outstrip wit or integrity as the way to secure one's future. Characters' thoughts bounce madly around, their minds stretched to breaking in the effort to keep ahead. Religion, sex, and money are the vices of this political backwater, where bureaucrats vie for the opportunity to meet The Guest, a visiting bigwig from Moscow. In prose that flows quickly and comically, Ganieva shows us how the moral sense of a few loud individuals can be manipulated to enact wider societal changes. The local minister of culture declares, "All misfortunes begin with the disrespect for history!" Soon, the Holodomor (a manufactured famine designed to break a Ukrainian independence movement, which killed upwards of five million) is considered a trifle next to North America's Great Depression. Whataboutism is a powerful weapon in the hands of those wanting to distract from their own nasty business. But suffering has no competition; it stands on its own. With three books in translation now, Ganieva has established herself as an author of international importance. Here, as with Ganieva's previous two novels, Carol Apollonio translates. Some clumsiness in the translation is allowed in an effort to catch readers up on Russian norms, practices, and traditions. While these instances slow down the reading of an otherwise fluid text, they also serve to show how foreign this country is to most readers. Russia's reemergence as a bogeyman cannot be disconnected from a general misunderstanding of its history and culture. In its vastness, the country may also remain a mystery to itself, divided from within by a gulf between rural and urban, and between classes both societal and financial, secular and pious. Born in the rural and religious Republic of Dagestan, Ganieva understands these divisions well. She knows, too, that her life in Moscow and her Russian Booker nomination mean her work primarily reaches a certain kind of reader. Offended Sensibilities shows that educating the Russian literati on the politics of their country's hinterland is just as necessary as educating the foreigner. [End Page 56] J. R.

Updated measurements of absolute D+ and D0 hadronic branching fractions and σ(e+e⁻→DD¯) at Ecm=3774 MeV

We report the development of the data acquisition (DAQ) system of the CANGAROO-III stereoscopic imaging Cherenkov telescope. Each DAQ system of two 10m telescopes is triggered by shower events individually. The trigger pulse and the event number are transmitted between telescopes, and the differences of the arrival times of triggers from two telescopes are measured. With this information the stereoscopic shower events are reconstructed in the off-line analysis. The stereoscopic events are detected at a rate of a few Hz, which shows that the energy pp. 2863–2866 c ©2003 by Universal Academy Press, Inc.

A Cherenkov imaging camera was developed and installed in the second telescope of the CANGAROO-III project for observing gamma-rays having energies above 10eV. The camera consists of 427 pixels, arranged in a hexagonal shape at 0.17◦ intervals, each of which is a 3/4-inch diameter photomultiplier with a Winston-cone–shaped light guide. The camera discussed in this paper offers a wider field of view, a better photon collection efficiency, and a larger dynamic pp. 2859–2862 c ©2003 by Universal Academy Press, Inc.

Numerous B-1B flight tests with good tracking reference data have made possible a new level of Doppler error analysis. The analysis involves the fitting of the Doppler error data to aircraft dynamics data. Reference velocity truth is provided by the Northrop Astro Inertial System (NAIS). The Doppler errors are expressed as scale factor and bore sight errors. Doppler and NAIS velocity are recorded together with dynamics data. The dynamics data are used as independent variables in attempts to model the observed Doppler errors. A modified group method of data handling (GMDH) procedure is used for automated search over thousands of possible models. The Akaike information criterion is used to select the best polynomial fit and avoid fitting to noise. Past attempts to determine the error models for the common strategic Doppler were limited to relatively few different structures. However, with the advent of GMDH, more exhaustive search for cause-and-effect relationships has become possible. The basic GMDH method and extensions are described.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>

effort against Germany. He and his companion are forced to adopt a veneer of savagery , a vestige Alfa begins to embrace after Mademba is mortally wounded. Unable to bring himself to mercifully kill his friend, Alfa begins viciously killing every German he can find and harvesting their hands, at first to his squadron’s encouragement. Their response quickly shifts to horror, however, as with each kill Alfa embodies the vicious animal his superiors believe him to be. Diop’s aforementioned focus on duality is apparent throughout almost every passage . Trenches are likened to a womb or a giant woman, as if Alfa’s deadly outings are bookended by a perverse source of life. Diop draws particular attention to how Alfa and his fellow “Chocolat soldiers” are presented: they hold a state-of-the-art rifle in one hand and a crude machete in the other. So far removed from any inclination toward this kind of behavior, Alfa feels himself slide into a cruel parody of his ancestral plight. Alfa, to the character’s credit, is presented as far from helpless. Despite dismembering Germans in an almost clinical routine, Diop never suggests that Alfa has utterly lost his humanity. In every life he takes, he sees a bit of himself die as the myth of the savage grows. Even then, he knows it is not conclusive, and the novel’s latter half is almost entirely centered on contemplating consequences. War as a literary theme is abundant but is rarely presented with tact when framed as visually as it is with All Blood Is Black. David Diop’s sophomore effort is readily adapted to the wartime canon.

THE MONOLITH OF American history often overshadows the continent’s early multiculturalism. This is especially true of the Age of Revolution, when Americanism as both noun and verb began its long echo across the world. So much has been written about the burgeoning American state of that time that the collective of cultures which made it tend to get lost in the noise. Here is a book that delivers on that lamentable gap, with a history and present-day analysis of two shared, but disparately rich, cultures: Irish and Scottish Gaelic. When the first cracks in the old-world Gaelic political systems spurred emigraBOOKS IN REVIEW Bijan Elahi High Tide of the Eyes Trans. Rebecca Ruth Gould & Kayvan Tahmasebian. Brooklyn. The Operating System. 2019. 106 pages. BIZHAN ELAHI (1945–2010) was not a prominent voice in Iranian poetry during his own lifetime. His relative obscurity might explain why High Tide of the Eyes, Rebecca Ruth Gould and Kayvan Tahmasebian ’s dual-language Persian-English translations of Elahi’s work, appears in a series titled Unsilenced Texts. Elahi’s silencing as a poet, it should be noted, was of the self-imposed variety. Born into “a wealthy family,” as the translators introduce him, and a “perfectionist” who was “indifferent to fame,” Elahi never endeavored to publish a poetry collection, apart from a single 1972 poem cycle that was scheduled to run in two hundred copies but that he withdrew before the poems ever saw their way to print. It was only with the posthumous publication of two collections , Vision (didan) and Youths (javānihā), from which Gould and Tahmasebian have selected twenty poems, that the poet’s voice could begin to be more widely heard. Elahi the translator, however, was not so reticent with his words. On the contrary , Elahi inserted his erudite and boldly experimental poetic voice into his many published and relatively well-received Persian translations of poets like Lorca, Eliot, Rimbaud, Hölderlin, and the ninthcentury mystic al-Hallaj. Echoes of Elahi ’s dialogues with other poetic traditions reverberate throughout the poems in High Tide of the Eyes and refract through Gould and Tahmasebian’s sensitive translations. Perhaps one of the collection’s best features is that it includes Elahi’s disparate statements on translation, drawn from various prefaces, introductions, and notes, so that readers can hear the poet-translator’s distinguished critical-theoretical voice as...

We report on Discussion Question 4, in Sub-group 1 (`TeV-class') of the Snowmass Working Group E3: `Experimental Approaches: Linear Colliders', which addresses the energy expandability of a linear collider. We first synthesize discussions of the energy reach of the hardware of the 500 GeV designs for TESLA and NLC/JLC. Next, we review plans for increasing the energy to 800-1000 GeV. We then look at options for expanding the energies to 1500 GeV and sketch the two-beam accelerator approach to achieving multi-TeV energies.

We search and find no evidence for CP violation in tau decays into the K(pi)nu(tau) final state. We provide limits on the imaginary part of the coupling constant Lambda describing a relative contribution of the CP violating processes with respect to the standard model to be -0.172<Im(Lambda)<0.067 at 90% C.L.

Composition measurements at TeV energies are traditionally made with satellite or balloon borne detectors which benefit from good discrimination but are severely limited by their collecting area and so yield poor statistics, particularly at higher energies. We have made ground based measurements with the atmospheric Cherenkov telescope BIGRAT, discriminating between different species of cosmic ray primary through characteristics of the Cherenkov pulse shape. By collecting data at low elevations, an increasing energy threshold for the detector allows us to probe a large energy range while maintaining reasonable statistics. A comparison of our data with Monte Carlo simulation is presented here.

The new Buckland Park Air Shower Array has been producing analyzed shower data since July 1984. The array is described and some preliminary performance figures are presented.

We present periodicity analyses of recent observations of two x‐ray binaries made with the University of Adelaide’s gamma‐ray telescope at Woomera, South Australia. Vela X‐1, which transits close to the zenith at Woomera, is observed with an energy threshold less than 1 TeV, and the results can be compared with other observations in the same energy region. On the other hand, Cygnus X‐3 reaches a maximum elevation of 18° and our energy threshold is correspondingly high (∼100 TeV). Our 1989 data have previously been searched for evidence of the 12.6 ms pulsar reported at TeV energies. We extend this analysis and include data from 1990.

To satisfy fundamental thermodynamic requirements and in contrast to the conventional mathematical procedure, a small finite molecular sample is considered as the essential basis for a theoretical structure in gas dynamics. With molecular flux gradients present the conventional particle velocity used in the Euler-Lagrange relationship is then necessarily modified. Further corrections appear in the momentum and energy conservation equations; and it follows that the entropy increment for conventional isentropic conditions is not zero. Although the procedures are developed, with a number of simplifying approximations, for conventional adiabatic non-viscous, one-dimensional flow of a perfect gas at moderate Mach numbers, more complex conditions may be included, and do not fundamentally affect the principles involved. Quantitatively the corrections are significant when gradients are severe. For unsteady flow in a duct it is indicated, contrary to existing theory, that multi-values of the variables do not arise as a pressure wave progresses; and that attenuation of the peak amplitude does occur. It is suggested that the proposed structure provides an improved physical basis for the appraisal of phenomena in gas dynamics.
