  3. Low-Z LPM Test LPM (Migdal) theory in low-Z targets No indications of insufficiency at level of stat. accuracy Preliminary

  4. Low-Z LPM 20 GeV electrons in Copper: No signs of kink-like structure Pile-up and background dilute the (possible) effect. Preliminary Phys. Rev. D 87, 072007 (2013)

  6. Structured targets – systematic investigation, Phys. Lett. B 732, 309 (2014)

  7. Structured targets Measuring the formation length with a micrometer screw....

  8. STATUSPositron production2012 measurement+DESY test

  9. Angular scans • Radiation enhancement observed w/ 180 GeV electrons (signal = radiation above 50 GeV, ‘strong field radiation’) September 2012, CERN with 1.5 mm diamond:

  10. MIMOSA read-out ASTRID and DESY test

  11. PLANS FOR 2015

  12. (MAMI) Phys. Rev. Lett., accepted Also a testing ground for our simulation code for radiation and pair creation in crystals…

  13. Positron production Factor 15 enhancement at low energies Reduced for thicker targets

  14. Heavy ion bremsstrahlung Radiation emission Peak structure due to finite nuclear size (deBroglie wavelength of virtual photon of order R)
