AbstractAn investigation on stochastic deflection of high-energy charged particles in a bent crystal was carried out. In particular, we investigated the deflection efficiency under axial confinement of both positively and negatively charged particles as a function of the crystal orientation, the choice of the bending plane, and of the charge sign. Analytic estimations and numerical simulations were compared with dedicated experiments at the H4 secondary beam line of SPS North Area, with 120 GeV/c electrons and positrons. In the work presented in this article, the optimal orientations of the plane of bending of the crystal, which allow deflecting the largest number of charged particles using a bent crystal in axial orientation, were found.

AbstractThe study of planar channeling of high-energy negatively charged particles in bent crystals was carried out. The value of the critical radius of planar channeling in the Doyle–Turner approximation for the atomic potential is determined. The dependence of the maximum angle at which a given fraction of beam particles could be deflected by means of planar channeling in a bent crystal on the particle energy was found. We identified the ideal parameters for the exploitation of planar channeling for negatively charged particle beam deflection by planar channeling in a bent crystal at current and future high-energy accelerators, e.g., SLAC, MAMI, ILC or muon colliders.

Abstract The ionization loss spectra of high-energy negatively charged particles which move in the planar channeling mode in a silicon crystal are studied with the use of numerical simulation. The case when the crystal thickness is on the order of the dechanneling length $$l_d$$ld is considered. It is shown that in this case the shape of the spectrum noticeably depends on $$l_d$$ld. The evolution of various characteristic parameters of the spectrum with the change of $$l_d$$ld is investigated. A method of the experimental determination of $$l_d$$ld on the basis of the measurement of the ionization loss spectrum is proposed.

The Pierre Auger Observatory is the world's largest experiment for the measurement of ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs). These UHECRs are assumed to be to be charged particles, and thus are deflected in cosmic magnetic fields. Recent results of the Pierre Auger Observatory addressing the complex of energy ordering of the UHECRs arrival directions are reviewed in this contribution. So far no significant energy ordering has been observed.

The pseudorapidity distribution of relativistic singly charged particles produced in high-energy heavy-ion collisions is described by the thermalized cylinder picture. The calculated results are in agreement with the experimental data of lead-induced interactions at 158A GeV/c. PACS Nos.:25.75.-q and 25.75.Dw
