PRESENT STATUS AND FUTURE PROGRAMS OF THE n_TOF EXPERIMENT
PRESENT STATUS AND FUTURE PROGRAMS OF THE n_TOF EXPERIMENT High precision neutron cross-‐section data are of major importance for a wide variety of research fields in basic and applied nuclear physics [1]. In particular, neutron data on neutron-‐nucleus reactions are essential in Nuclear Astrophysics for understanding the production rate of heavy elements in the Universe,

COMPASS-‐II: Preparing for the next step
COMPASS-‐II: Preparing for the next step COMPASS (NA58) is preparing for the next step in its programme studying nucleon structure and hadron spectroscopy. From 2014 onward the focus will be on transverse momentum dependent (TMD) parton distribution functions (PDF) and on generalised parton distributions (GPD). Both are related to the intrinsic transverse structure of the

NA62 – Searching for the Very Rare
NA62 – Searching for the Very Rare Work is progressing swiftly on the construction of the new NA62 detectors. The experiment aims to collect new data, with a partial setup, already in 2012. NA62 is an experiment devoted to the study of rare kaon decays. It addresses in particular the very rare decay of a

CLOUD
CLOUD A new experiment, known as CLOUD1, began operation at the CERN PS in November 2009 [CERN Bulletin (2009)]. The CLOUD collaboration comprises 17 institutes from Europe, Russia and the United States, and brings together a diverse interdisciplinary team of atmospheric physicists and chemists, and space, cosmic ray and particle physicists [CLOUD Collaboration]. Over the
