Title Gamma-ray sources imaging and test-beam results with MACACO III Compton camera Type Journal Article
Year 2024 Publication (down) Physica Medica Abbreviated Journal Phys. Medica
Volume 117 Issue Pages 103199 - 10pp
Keywords Hadron therapy; Compton camera; Scintillator crystals; Silicon photomultipliers
Abstract Hadron therapy is a radiotherapy modality which offers a precise energy deposition to the tumors and a dose reduction to healthy tissue as compared to conventional methods. However, methods for real-time monitoring are required to ensure that the radiation dose is deposited on the target. The IRIS group of IFIC-Valencia developed a Compton camera prototype for this purpose, intending to image the Prompt Gammas emitted by the tissue during irradiation. The system detectors are composed of Lanthanum (III) bromide scintillator crystals coupled to silicon photomultipliers. After an initial characterization in the laboratory, in order to assess the system capabilities for future experiments in proton therapy centers, different tests were carried out in two facilities: PARTREC (Groningen, The Netherlands) and the CNA cyclotron (Sevilla, Spain). Characterization studies performed at PARTREC indicated that the detectors linearity was improved with respect to the previous version and an energy resolution of 5.2 % FWHM at 511 keV was achieved. Moreover, the imaging capabilities of the system were evaluated with a line source of 68Ge and a point-like source of 241Am-9Be. Images at 4.439 MeV were obtained from irradiation of a graphite target with an 18 MeV proton beam at CNA, to perform a study of the system potential to detect shifts at different intensities. In this sense, the system was able to distinguish 1 mm variations in the target position at different beam current intensities for measurement times of 1800 and 600 s.

Title Gauge Sector Dynamics in QCD Type Journal Article
Year 2023 Publication (down) Particles Abbreviated Journal Particles
Volume 6 Issue 1 Pages 312-363
Keywords continuum Schwinger function methods; emergence of hadron mass; gluon mass generation; lattice QCD; non-perturbative quantum field theory; quantum chromodynamics; Schwinger-Dyson equations; Schwinger mechanism
Abstract The dynamics of the QCD gauge sector give rise to non-perturbative phenomena that are crucial for the internal consistency of the theory; most notably, they account for the generation of a gluon mass through the action of the Schwinger mechanism, the taming of the Landau pole, the ensuing stabilization of the gauge coupling, and the infrared suppression of the three-gluon vertex. In the present work, we review some key advances in the ongoing investigation of this sector within the framework of the continuum Schwinger function methods, supplemented by results obtained from lattice simulations.

Title Heavy hadron spectroscopy: A quark model perspective Type Journal Article
Year 2013 Publication (down) Nuclear Physics A Abbreviated Journal Nucl. Phys. A
Volume 914 Issue Pages 472-481
Keywords Heavy hadrons; Constituent quark model; Many-quark systems
Abstract We present recent results of hadron spectroscopy and hadron-hadron interaction from the perspective of constituent quark models. We pay special attention to the role played by higher order Fock space components in the hadron spectra and the connection of this extension with the hadron-hadron interaction. The main goal of our description is to obtain a coherent understanding of the low-energy hadron phenomenology without enforcing any particular model, to constrain its characteristics and learn about low-energy realization of the theory.

Title Resonances in QCD Type Journal Article
Year 2016 Publication (down) Nuclear Physics A Abbreviated Journal Nucl. Phys. A
Volume 948 Issue Pages 93-105
Keywords Mini review; Resonances; Hadrons; QCD
Abstract We report on the EMMI Rapid Reaction Task Force meeting 'Resonances in QCD', which took place at GSI October 12-14,2015. A group of 26 people met to discuss the physics of resonances in QCD. The aim of the meeting was defined by the following three key questions: What is needed to understand the physics of resonances in QCD? Where does QCD lead us to expect resonances with exotic quantum numbers? What experimental efforts are required to arrive at a coherent picture? For light mesons and baryons only those with up, down and strange quark content were considered. For heavy-light and heavy-heavy meson systems, those with charm quarks were the focus. This document summarizes the discussions by the participants, which in turn led to the coherent conclusions we present here.

Title Measurement of jet fragmentation in 5.02 TeV proton-lead and proton-proton collisions with the ATLAS detector Type Journal Article
Year 2018 Publication (down) Nuclear Physics A Abbreviated Journal Nucl. Phys. A
Volume 978 Issue Pages 65-106
Keywords Relativistic heavy-ion collisions; Jets; Fragmentation into hadrons
Abstract A measurement of the fragmentation functions of jets into charged particles in p Pb collisions and pp collisions is presented. The analysis utilizes 28 nb(-1) of p Pb data and 26 pb(-1) of pp data, both at root(TN)-T-s= 5.02 TeV, collected in 2013 and 2015, respectively, with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The measurement is reported in the centre-of-mass frame of the nucleon-nucleon system for jets in the rapidity range vertical bar y*vertical bar <1.6 and with transverse momentum 45 < p(T) < 260 GeV. Results are presented both as a function of the charged-particle transverse momentum and as a function of the longitudinal momentum fraction of the particle with respect to the jet. The pp fragmentation functions are compared with results from Monte Carlo event generators and two theoretical models. The ratios of the p +Pb to pp fragmentation functions are found to be consistent with unity. (C) 2018 CERN for the benefit of the ATLAS Collaboration.
