In this letter we investigate the possible emission of low-energy electron neutrinos and electron–positron pairs of anomalously large multiplicity in close-to-central pp collisions at LHC. The scenario is based on confining SU(2) Yang–Mills dynamics of Hagedorn temperature ~ me = 511 keV being responsible for the emergence of the lightest lepton family and the weak interactions of the Standard Model. Although cut off by LHC's detectors these electron–positron bursts would be seen indirectly by a large defect energy and thus an anomalously strong decrease of events with interesting high-energy secondaries for increasing [Formula: see text]. This is because the formation of superconducting (preconfining) SU(2) hot-spots "steals" a large fraction of [Formula: see text] subsequently transferring it to a thermal spectrum of electron neutrinos, electrons, and positrons liberated through evaporation. We thus propose the detection of electrons and positrons of kinetic energy ~ me and photons of energy ~ 2me.

In this review, we discuss the angular anisotropies in the scattering factors of electrons and positrons for scattering by atoms in solids. We show that, as a function of the angle, the maximum number of dips in the scattering factor's magnitude and jumps of near π in its phase are related to the angular momenta of the bound and resonance states of the potential. The effect of the scattering factor's anisotropies on low-energy electron and positron holographic wave-front reconstruction is discussed.

We discuss a low energy e+e− collider for production of the not yet observed (μ+μ−) bound system (dimuonium). Collider with large crossing angle for e+e− beams intersection produces dimuonium with non-zero momentum; therefore, its decay point is shifted from the beam collision area providing effective suppression of the elastic e+e− scattering background. The experimental constraints define subsequent collider specifications. We show preliminary layout of the accelerator and obtained main parameters. High luminosity in chosen beam energy range allows to study π± and η-mesons.

Surface micro-structure analysis is very important for surface study in material science. Observations of surface atomic steps and reconstructed structures have been made using several techniques: reflection high energy electron microscopy (RHEEM), low energy electron reflection microscopy (LEERM) and low energy electron diffraction microscopy (LEEDM).In the present experiment, observations of surface micro-structures have been made using a scanning type reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED) microscopy. This technique has certain advantages of easy combinations with multiple surface analyzing techniques such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) and electron energy loss spectroscopy (ELS).A schematic diagram of the scanning RHEED microscope combined with the microprobe AES is shown in Fig. 1. RHEED patterns are observed on the fluorescent screen through a viewing port. To observe the micro-structure (scanning RHEED image or dark field image), a particular diffraction spot is selected by means of the other small fluorescent screen with an aperture.
