The Particle Detector BriefBook A condensed handbook covering subjects around particle detectors, the underlying physics and the analysis of their data. Intended as introduction for newcomers and reference for physicists working in the field. http://www.cern.ch/RD11/rkb/titleD.html
Extractions: This is a condensed handbook, or an extended glossary, written in encyclopedic format, covering subjects around particle detectors, the underlying physics, and the analysis of their data. It intends to be both introduction for newcomers and reference for physicists working in the field. This BriefBook has been prepared by (your browser should have graphics capability).

Extractions: Stephen.Pinfield@Nottingham.ac.uk At the University of Nottingham, we are in the process of setting up an experimental institutional e-print archive [ ]. The technical side of this has been reasonably straightforward. We are using the software produced by e-prints.org [ ], and have customized the interface to give it a Nottingham 'look and feel'. However, the managerial and cultural aspects of 'self-archiving' have proved to be rather more complex. How can researchers be encouraged to contribute to the e-print archive? What is in it for them? How can procedures be managed to make it simple for them to archive their material? To help us address these questions, we decided we needed to know more about how a successful e-print archive is actually being used by researchers. To do this, we chose to look at use of the arXiv service (formerly known as the Los Alamos XXX service) [ ]. We consulted (face-to-face or by email) a number of researchers who are making use of arXiv. At the same time, we looked at the service itself to see if what we were being told seemed to reflect the wider experience.

Extractions: The dialogue about mathematics for engineering students must not be confined just to engineering faculty at four-year universities. Many undergraduate engineering students transfer from two-year colleges, where they took all of their mathematics classes. And all engineering students receive their mathematics "basic training" (in algebra, trigonometry, and analytic geometry) in high school.

N. Matsukevich, T. Chaneliere, M. Bhattacharya, S.-Y. Lan, S. D. Jenkins, T.A.B. Kennedy, A. Kuzmich, PRL Abstract : We describe a new experimental approach to probabilistic atom-photon (signal) entanglement. Two qubit states are encoded as orthogonal collective spin excitations of an unpolarized atomic ensemble. After a programmable delay, the atomic excitation is converted into a photon (idler). Polarization states of both the signal and the idler are recorded and are found to be in violation of the Bell inequality. Atomic coherence times exceeding several microseconds are achieved by switching off all the trapping fields - including the quadrupole magnetic field of the magneto-optical trap - and zeroing out the residual ambient magnetic field.
