Measurement of the 171Tm beta spectrum

Lesya Shchutska, Alexey Boyarsky

The beta spectrum of the main transition of the 171Tm was measured using a double focalizing spectrometer. The instrument was lately improved in order to reduce its low energy threshold to 34 keV. We used the spectrometer to measure the energy end-point of ...

Study of suprathermal electron dynamics during electron cyclotron current drive using hard x-ray measurements in the TCV tokamak

Stefano Coda, Joan Decker, Jean Arthur Cazabonne, Dahye Choi

Suprathermal electron dynamics in real and momentum spaces plays an important role in the physics of electron cyclotron current drive (ECCD), in particular for predicting the wave driven current. In the TCV tokamak, a hard x-ray spectroscopy system equippe ...

Bootstrapping massive quantum field theories

Denis Karateev, João Miguel Augusto Penedones Fernandes

We propose a new non-perturbative method for studying UV complete unitary quantum field theories (QFTs) with a mass gap in general number of spacetime dimensions. The method relies on unitarity formulated as positive semi-definiteness of the matrix of inne ...

Unraveling intrinsic correlation effects with angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy

Marco Vanzini, Vladimir N. Strocov

Interaction effects can change materials properties in intriguing ways, and they have, in general, a huge impact on electronic spectra. In particular, satellites in photoemission spectra are pure many-body effects, and their study is of increasing interest ...
