  1. Task A1: Collider Physics Introduction Sally Seidel 29 November 2005

  2. Group members: • Igor Gorelov, Research Associate Professor • since 1999, from Moscow ITEP • Martin Hoeferkamp, Research Engineer (EE) • Since 1993, from military/aerospace • Tim Thomas, Deputy Director, UNM-HPC • Since 2002, from PHENIX, CDF (Physics Ph.D.) • Elena Vataga, Post-doc • Since May 2005, from Moscow State • Dmitriy Naumov, Graduate Student • Since 2002, with M.S. from Moscow Lomonosov State Univ. • Marcelo Vogel, Graduate Student • Since September 2005, with B.S. degrees in Physics (UNM) and Geology (U. Chile). • Sally Seidel, Professor • Since 1991

  3. Our interests: • QCD at the interface between perturbative and non-perturbative…probed by heavy quarks… • Igor on pentaquark search and charmed baryon production and yield with CDF. • Elena on Λb charmless decays, data production monitoring at CDF, and being an Ace. • Dmitriy on Λc signal-to-background. • Marcelo on Σc plans. • Vertex detector development… • Martin on ATLAS upgrade pixels and new structures with RD50. • Large scale computing... • Tim on ATLAS Data Challenges and Tier 2 Computing

  4. A little history of our group 1992-98: Seidel led CDF SVX II silicon sensor design and production. Continuous MoU’s with FNAL to support this work. 1993-95:Sandia SURP Grant for detector development. 1995-96:NSF Career Advancement Award launched UNM-ATLAS. 1997-present: continuous MoU’s withUS-ATLAS for pixel development. 1997-2003: Seidel led ATLAS pixel sensor subgroup. 1997: UNM CDF QCD effort began, leading to publications on 3-jet events (Run 1) and pentaquarks (Run 2) and current active analyses of Λc, Σc, and Λb. 1999-2002: Six NASA PURSUE Awards for support of undergraduate research.

  5. A little history of our group, continued 2000: Our student Gavin Gleason selected by CUR to present a Poster on the Hill. 2001:NSF Major Research Instrumentation Award. 2001: Former post-doc Giuseppe Latino co-chair of CDF Jet Analysis Subgroup. 2003: Thomas launched UNM ATLAS computing effort. 2003: Joined RD50. 2004: Hoeferkamp won UNM-Sigma Xi Noteworthy Technical Support Person Award. 2005: DOE Advanced Detector Research Award. 2005: ATLAS Southwest Tier 2 Center (UNM, UT-Arlington, U-Oklahoma, and Langston) formed.

  6. Our publications this year: • Comparison of Three-jet Events in Proton-Antiproton Collisons at √s=1.8 TeV to Predictions from a NLO QCD Calculation, CDF Collaboration, PRD 71, 032002, (2005). • Determination of the Jet Energy Scale at the Collider Detector at Fermilab, G. Latino et al., hep-ex/0510047 (to be published in NIM). • Our papers in draft form this year: • Search for Exotic S=-2 Baryons in Proton-Antiproton Collisions at√s=1.96 TeV , I. Gorelov et al., CDF Collaboration • Measurement of the Inclusive Jet Cross Section Using the Cone-based Jet Algorithm, G. Latino et al, CDF Collaboration

  7. Other papers this year with major components from our group: • Analysis of Test Beam Data of ATLAS Pixel Detector Production Modules with a High Intensity Pion Beam, CERN-ATL-COM-INDET-2005-012, I. Gorelov, D. Naumov, et al. • Test Beam Measurement of the Detection Efficiency of ATLAS Pixel Production Modules, CERN-ATL-COM-INDET-2005-013, I. Gorelov, D. Naumov, et al. • The CDF Run IIb Silicon Detector: Design, Preproduction, and Performance, M. Hoeferkamp, D. Naumov, et al., accepted by NIM, November 2005.
