Study of Generalized Parton Distributions and Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering on the nucleon with the CLAS and CLAS12 detectors at the Jefferson Laboratory (Virginia, USA)

Guegan, Baptiste 27 November 2012 (has links) (PDF)
The Generalized Parton Distributions (GPDs) provide a new description of the nucleon structure in terms of its elementary constituents, the quarks and the gluons. The GPDs give access to a unified picture of the nucleon, correlating the information obtained from the measurements of the Form Factors and the Parton Distribution Functions. They describe the correlation between the transverse position and the longitudinal momentum fraction of the partons in the nucleon.Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering (DVCS), the electroproduction of a real photon on a single quark of the nucleon eN -> e'N'γ, is the most straightforward exclusive process allowing access to the GPDs. A dedicated experiment to study DVCS with the CLAS detector of Jefferson Lab has been carried out using a 5.883 GeV polarized electron beam and an unpolarized hydrogen target, allowing to collect DVCS events in the widest kinematic range ever explored in the valence region : 1 < Q^2 < 4.6 〖GeV〗^2, 0.1 < x_B < 0.58, 0.09 < -t < 3 〖GeV〗^2 .In this work, we present the extraction of three different DVCS observables: the unpolarized cross section, the difference of polarized cross sections and the beam spin asymmetry. We present comparisons with GPD model. We show a preliminary extraction of the GPDs using the latest fitting code procedure on our data, and a preliminary interpretation of the results in terms of parton density.

Study of generalized Radon transforms and applications in Compton scattering tomography

Rigaud, Gaël 20 November 2013 (has links) (PDF)
Since the advent of the first ionizing radiation imaging devices initiated by Godfrey Newbold Hounsfield and Allan MacLeod Cormack, Nobel Prizes in 1979, the requirement for new non-invasive imaging techniques has grown. These techniques rely upon the properties of penetration in the matter of X and gamma radiation for detecting a hidden structure without destroying the illuminated environment. They are used in many fields ranging from medical imaging to non-destructive testing through. However, the techniques used so far suffer severe degradation in the quality of measurement and reconstructed images. Usually approximated by a noise, these degradations require to be compensated or corrected by collimating devices and often expensive filtering. These degradation is mainly due to scattering phenomena which may constitute up to 80% of the emitted radiation in biological tissue. In the 80's a new concept has emerged to circumvent this difficulty : the Compton scattering tomography (CST).This new approach proposes to measure the scattered radiation considering energy ranges ( 140-511 keV) where the Compton effect is the phenomenon of leading broadcast. The use of such imaging devices requires a deep understanding of the interactions between radiation and matter to propose a modeling, consistent with the measured data, which is essential to image reconstruction. In conventional imaging systems (which measure the primary radiation) the Radon transformdefined on the straight lines emerged as the natural modeling. But in Compton scattering tomography, the measured information is related to the scattering energy and thus the scattering angle. Thus the circular geometry induced by scattering phenomenon makes the classical Radon transform inadequate.In this context, it becomes necessary to provide such Radon transforms on broader geometric manifolds.The study of the Radon transform on new manifolds of curves becomes necessary to provide theoretical needs for new imaging techniques. Cormack, himself, was the first to extend the properties of the conventional Radon transform of a family of curves of the plane. Thereafter several studies have been done in order to study the Radon transform defined on different varieties of circles, spheres, broken lines ... . In 1994 S.J. Norton proposed the first modality in Compton scattering tomography modeled by a Radon transform on circular arcs, the CART1 here. In 2010, Nguyen and Truong established the inversion formula of a Radon transform on circular arcs, CART2, to model the image formation in a new modality in Compton scattering tomography. The geometry involved in the integration support of new modalities in Compton scattering tomography lead them to demonstrate the invertibility of the Radon transform defined on a family of Cormack-type curves, called C_alpha. They illustrated the inversion procedure in the case of a new transform, the CART3, modeling a new modeling of Compton scattering tomography. Based on the work of Cormack and Truong and Nguyen, we propose to establish several properties of the Radon transform on the family C_alpha especially on C1. We have thus demonstrated two inversion formulae that reconstruct the original image via its circular harmonic decomposition and itscorresponding transform. These formulae are similar to those established by Truong and Nguyen. We finally established the well-known filtered back projection and singular value decomposition in the case alpha = 1. All results established in this study provide practical problems of image reconstruction associated with these new transforms. In particular we were able to establish new inversion methods for transforms CART1,2,3 as well as numerical approaches necessary for the implementation of these transforms. All these results enable to solve problems of image formation and reconstruction related to three Compton scattering tomography modalities.In addition we propose to improve models and algorithms es

Pulsed Laser Injected Enhancement Cavity for Laser-electron Interaction

You, Yan 03 June 2014 (has links) (PDF)
X-ray diffraction and scattering, X-ray spectroscopy, and X-ray crystallography are widely used in the life sciences, material science, and medical diagnosis. High-quality and high-brightness X-rays are a strong requirement to improve applications. Inverse Compton scattering (ICS) X-ray source has attracted great interests worldwide lately. To significantly enhance the average X-ray photon flux, a compact electron storage-ring combined with a high finesse optical enhancement cavity (OEC) can be utilized. In such a system, the collision rate between the electron beam and the laser pulse is greatly increased to the MHz range, enabling a photon flux up to 10¹³ph/s.In the first chapter, I describe the motivation behind the development of OEC based on ICS X-ray source. The characteristics of this kind of X-ray source are summarized, compared to those of the conventional low-repetition-rate Terawatt laser system based on ICS X-ray source. The latest progress and research status of OEC based on ICS X-ray source are presented. Pulsed-laser injected high-finesse OEC stacking theory and properties are discussed in Chapter 2. Not only does the OEC based on ICS X-ray source require the laser pulse repetition rate to be matched to the free spectral range (FSR) of the cavity, where both also have to match the electron storage-ring circulation frequency. In addition, we have to match the phase shift of the laser repetition rate to the phase offset introduced by the dispersion of the cavity mirrors, since our cavity finesse design value is quite high. The stacking theory is analyzed in the frequency domain. Cavity properties, including cavity mirror dispersion, finesse, and FSR, are discussed in detail. A laser frequency comb and OEC coupling is analyzed also. The laser source development is presented in Chapter 3. We constructed a mode-locked fiber laser based on nonlinear polarization rotation. The locking model, locking techniques, and the theory, simulations and experimental tests of tilt locking (TL) in the pulsed laser injected high-finesse OEC are discussed in Chapter 4. We succeeded in locking a pulsed laser to a high-finesse cavity with the TL technique. The experimental results show that the TL and the Pound-Drever-Hall techniques have the same performance: stable locking, high sensitivity, and the same power coupling rate for picosecond laser pulse case, while the test results for full spectrum TL locking show that it is uneasy to align the split-photodiode to the beam waist.Based on the above experimental study and tests, we design the OEC system for Tsinghua University X-ray project in Chapter 5. The expected X-ray flux is 10¹º to 10¹³ ph/s. We detail every subsystem requirement.

Strong-Field QED Processes in Short Laser Pulses

Seipt, Daniel 18 February 2013 (has links) (PDF)
The purpose of this thesis is to advance the understanding of strong-field QED processes in short laser pulses. The processes of non-linear one-photon and two-photon Compton scattering are studied, that is the scattering of photons in the interaction of relativistic electrons with ultra-short high-intensity laser pulses. These investigations are done in view of the present and next generation of ultra-high intensity optical lasers which are supposed to achieve unprecedented intensities of the order of 10^24 W/cm^2 and beyond, with pulse lengths in the order of some femtoseconds. The ultra-high laser intensity requires a non-perturbative description of the interaction of charged particles with the laser field to allow for multi-photon interactions, which is beyond the usual perturbative expansion of QED organized in powers of the fine structure constant. This is achieved in strong-field QED by employing the Furry picture and non-perturbative solutions of the Dirac equation in the presence of a background laser field as initial and final state wave functions, as well as the laser dressed Dirac-Volkov propagator. The primary objective is a realistic description of scattering processes with regard to the finite laser pulse duration beyond the common approximation of infinite plane waves, which is made necessary by the ultra-short pulse length of modern high-intensity lasers. Non-linear finite size effects are identified, which are a result of the interplay between the ultra-high intensity and the ultra-short pulse length. In particular, the frequency spectra and azimuthal photon emission spectra are studied emphasizing the differences between pulsed and infinite laser fields. The proper description of the finite temporal duration of the laser pulse leads to a regularization of unphysical infinities (due to the infinite plane-wave description) of the laser-dressed Dirac-Volkov propagator and in the second-order strong-field process of two-photon Compton scattering. An enhancement of the two-photon process is found in strong laser pulses as compared to the corresponding weak-field process in perturbative QED.

Développement d’une source de rayonnement X par diffusion Compton inverse sur l'accélérateur ELSA et optimisation à l'aide d'un système d'empilement de Photons / Development of a multi-keV Compton Source on ELSA linac and optimization with a photons piling-up sytem

Chaleil, Annaïg 03 November 2016 (has links)
La diffusion Compton inverse est l’interaction entre un photon et un électron de haute énergie. Il en résulte l’émission d’un nouveau photon d’énergie supérieure à celle du photon incident suivant la trajectoire de l’électron. Ces propriétés rendent possible la création d’une source de rayonnement X hautement directive, monochromatique accordable dans une large gamme spectrale. Il suffit d’accélérer les électrons sur quelques mètres pour leur faire gagner l’énergie minimale requise. Les photons proviennent d’une chaîne laser fortement amplifiée. Une telle source est donc relativement compacte, peu couteuse à mettre en oeuvre et facilement accessible aux utilisateurs. Elle est particulièrement adaptée aux besoins des musées ou des hôpitaux pour des applications comme l’analyse d’oeuvres historiques ou la radiothérapie. L’objectif de cette thèse est de mettre en oeuvre une source de rayonnement X par diffusion Compton inverse en bout de ligne de l’accélérateur ELSA (Electrons et Laser, Sources X et applications). L’installation ELSA comprend un accélérateur linéaire d’électrons appartenant à la Direction des Applications Militaires du Commissariat à l’Energie Atomique à Bruyères-le-Châtel (CEA DAM). Le but est de produire des impulsions de rayonnement X ultra-courtes dans une gamme énergétique allant de 10 à 100 keV. Elle servira notamment à la caractérisation de détecteurs à réponse ultra-rapide développés à la DAM. Un système optique destiné à augmenter le flux de rayonnement X produit a été développé. Il consiste à replier la trajectoire du laser pour empiler les impulsions au point d’interaction. Dans le même but, une mise à niveau de l’installation à été réalisée afin d’augmenter l’énergie des électrons de 18 à 30 MeV. Les résultats expérimentaux ont enfin été comparés aux résultats obtenus à l’aide de simulations PIC 3D. / X-ray sources based on inverse Compton scattering process produce tunable near-monochromatic and highly directive X-rays. Recent advances in laser and accelerator technologies make the development of such very compact hard X-ray sources possible. These sources are particularly attractive in several applications such as medical imaging, cancer therapy or culture-heritage study, currently performed in size-limited infrastructures. The main objective of this thesis is the development of an inverse Compton scattering source on the ELSA linac of CEA at Bruyères-le-Châtel as a calibration tool for ultra-fast detectors.A non-resonant cavity was designed to multiply the number of emitted X-ray photons. The laser optical path is folded to pile-up laser pulses at the interaction point, thus increasing the interaction probability. Another way of optimizing the X-ray yield consists in increasing the electron bunch density at the interaction point, which is strongly dependent on the electron energy. A facility up-grade was performed to increase the electron energy up to 30 MeV. The X-ray output gain obtained thanks to this system was measured and compared with calculated expectations and 3D PIC simulations.

Angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy and Compton scattering studies on ternary rare-earth systems

Güttler, Monika 14 December 2020 (has links)
In this work, three members of the RERh2Si2 (RE = rare earth) series have been studied by means of UV and soft X-ray ARPES in combination with ab initio band structure calculations, XMLD and high resolution Compton scattering. Hereby, various aspects of the rich 4f physics in these rare-earth-based intermetallics have been highlighted, which include itinerant surface magnetism, Fermi surface folding across an antiferromagnetic phase transition and the Fermi surface crossover with temperature in a Kondo lattice. GdRh2Si2 is an antiferromagnet with alternating layers of ferromagnetically coupled Gd layers, which are separated by Si-Rh-Si buffers. Our combined UV-ARPES experiments and electronic structure calculations show that cleavage along a basal plane leaves behind either a Gd- or a Si-terminated surface, where the latter bears two distinct two-dimensional electron states (2DESs): a purely two-dimensional Shockley surface state and a Dirac-cone-type surface resonance. Both 2DESs at the Si-terminated surface couple via exchange interaction to the large Gd 4f moments buried below the topmost Si-Rh-Si trilayer and reveal a strong spin splitting with values up to ~185 meV in the Shockley state, when the magnetic ordering evolves. Our UV-ARPES and XMLD results suggest that both 2DESs play a decisive role in the mediation of the magnetic ordering at the surface, which first develops independently from the ordering in the bulk even far below the Néel temperature of 107 K, before it connects to the bulk magnetism at ~60 K. We further studied the influence of potassium deposition on the 2DESs by ARPES. In addition, our calculations suggest a small splitting of the Shockley surface state even in the paramagnetic phase and an unusual Rashba-like spin texture with a triple winding of the electron spins along the Fermi surface contour. However, in the present work this small splitting could not be resolved by the ARPES experiments due to the large lifetime broadening of the surface bands. The rest of this work takes a closer look at the bulk Fermi surface of the prominent heavy-fermion compound YbRh2Si2. We first established with the help of UV-ARPES measurements on EuRh2Si2, that the large Fermi surface in YbRh2Si2, which has previously been observed at low temperatures down to 1 K, indeed contains one additional hole per unit cell originating from the delocalized degree of freedom of the 4f hole in accordance with Luttinger’s Fermi surface sum rule, even though the Yb valence deviates only very slightly from Yb3+. This finding confirms, that the observed large Fermi surface in YbRh2Si2 is indeed a manifestation of a true many-body effect arising from strong electronic correlations. We have hereby made usage of the unique property of EuRh2Si2 being the only compound in the RERh2Si2 series with a divalent rare-earth ion. This offers the valuable opportunity to gauge experimentally and in the absence of strong renormalization effects on the electronic structure the topology and size of the large Fermi surface, which is expected for a nearly trivalent RERh2Si2 Kondo lattice. Upon entering the antiferromagnetic phase, the Fermi surface of EuRh2Si2 is subject to band folding, as observed by soft X-ray ARPES, due to the doubled size of the unit cell. This leads to a pronounced splitting and fragmentation of the Fermi surface, which could clearly be observed in the Fermi surface maps obtained by high-resolution UV-ARPES. In light of certain parallels between EuRh2Si2 and YbRh2Si2 concerning magnetic correlations, these findings might suggest that qualitatively similar changes of the Fermi surface topology upon entering the antiferromagnetic phase might also be of relevance for YbRh2Si2. This might have serious implications for the understanding of the enigmatic quantum phase transition in this compound and should certainly be taken into account. We have further addressed the long-standing problem of the temperature dependence of the Fermi volume in Kondo lattices. Theory predicts a crossover of the Fermi surface from large to small upon increasing temperature, as the 4f electron (or hole in Yb-based Kondo lattices) leaves the strong-coupling regime, where its degree of freedom is dissolved into the Fermi sea, and becomes effectively localized and decoupled from the conduction band. However, a comprehensive experimental proof of this prediction is still lacking to date. In this work, we have employed high-resolution Compton scattering to derive the EOND of YbRh2Si2, which can be viewed as the projection of the Fermi volume onto a two-dimensional plane in momentum space. Our measurements have indeed revealed pronounced changes in the EOND of YbRh2Si2 between 14 K and 300 K, which can be attributed to a reconstruction of the Fermi surface with increasing temperature. Comparison to equivalent measurements on YbCo2Si2, a reference system for the small Fermi surface, allowed us to conclude, that the YbRh2Si2 EOND at 300 K reflects a small Fermi surface, which results from a transition of the Fermi volume from large to small due to the temperature-driven breakdown of the Kondo lattice effect. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first experiment of this kind, which comprehensively visualizes the Fermi surface transition with temperature over the whole Brillouin zone in an Yb-based Kondo lattice. / Diese Arbeit untersucht drei Vertreter aus der Gruppe der RERh2Si2 Verbindungen (wobei RE für ein Seltenerdelement gemäß der englischen Bezeichung rare earth steht), welche mittels Ultraviolett- und Röntgenphotoelektronenspektroskopie (UV-ARPES bzw. SX-ARPES) in Kombination mit Bandstrukturrechnungen, linearem magnetischem Röntgendichroismus (XMLD) sowie hochauflösender Comptonstreuung untersucht wurden. Hierbei wurden verschiedene Aspekte der reichhaltigen Physik in diesen intermetallischen Verbindungen, die von den 4f-Elektronen herrührt, beleuchtet, welche Phänomene wie itineranten Oberflächenmagnetismus, die Faltung einer Fermifläche durch einen antiferromagnetischen Phasenübergang sowie die temperaturabhängige Transformation der Fermifläche in einem Kondogitter einschließen. GdRh2Si2 ist ein Antiferromagnet, in welchem ferromagnetisch geordnete Gd-Lagen mit alternierender Ausrichtung gestapelt sind und jeweils durch einen dreilagigen Puffer aus Si-Rh-Si getrennt werden. Unsere UV-ARPES-Messungen und Bandstrukturrechnungen haben gezeigt, dass ein Auseinanderbrechen der Probe entlang einer Basalebene entweder eine Gd- oder eine Si-terminierte Oberfläche hinterlässt, wobei letztere zwei verschiedene zweidimensionale Elektronenbänder (2D-EB) aufweist: ein rein zweidimensionales Oberflächenband vom Shockley-Typ, sowie eine Oberflächenresonanz in der Form eines Dirac-Kegels. Beide 2D-EB auf der Si-terminierten Oberfläche koppeln mittels Austauschwechselwirkung an die großen magnetischen Gd-4f-Momente, welche sich unter der obersten Si-Rh-Si-Schicht befinden, und zeigen eine starke Aufspaltung mit Werten von bis zu ~185 meV im Shockley-Zustand, sobald sich magnetische Ordnung ausgebildet hat. Unsere ARPES- und XMLD-Messungen legen nahe, dass beide 2D-EB eine entscheidende Rolle bei der Vermittlung der magnetischen Ordnung an der Oberfläche spielen, welche sich zunächst auch deutlich unterhalb der Néel-Temperatur von 107 K unabhängig von der Magnetisierung im Volumen entwickelt, bevor sie an die Volumenmagnetisierung etwa unterhalb von 60 K angebunden wird. Wir haben ferner den Einfluss des Aufdampfens von Kalium auf die 2D-EB mittels ARPES studiert. Desweiteren haben unsere Rechnungen eine schwache Aufspaltung des Shockley-Zustandes selbst in der paramagnetischen Phase ergeben, welche mit einer ungewöhnlichen Rashba-artigen Spintextur einhergeht, die eine Dreifachwindung der Elektronenspins entlang der Fermiflächenkontur aufweist. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit konnte diese kleine Aufspaltung jedoch nicht mittels ARPES aufgelöst werden, da die lebensdauerbedingte Verbreiterung der Shockley-Bänder leider zu groß war. Der verbleibende Teil der Arbeit widmet sich der Fermifläche im Volumen der bekannten Schwere-Fermionen-Verbindung YbRh2Si2. Mit Hilfe von UV-ARPES-Messungen an EuRh2Si2 haben wir zunächst nachgewiesen, dass die große Fermifläche, die vormals in YbRh2Si2 bei tiefen Temperaturen bis > 1 K beobachtet wurde, tatsächlich einen zusätzlichen lochartigen Zustand pro Einheitszelle enthält, der in Übereinstimmung mit der Luttinger-Summenregel von dem delokalisierten Freiheitsgrad des 4f-Lochs stammt, obwohl die Valenz der Yb-Ionen nur sehr geringfügig von Yb3+ abweicht. Diese Erkenntnis bestätigt, dass die große Fermifläche in YbRh2Si2 in der Tat einen Vielteilcheneffekt widerspiegelt, der auf starke elektronische Korrelationen zurückzuführen ist. Hierbei haben wir uns die einzigartige Eigenschaft von EuRh2Si2, dass es die einzige Verbindung in der RERh2Si2-Serie mit zweiwertigen Seltenerd-Ionen ist, zunutze gemacht. Dies bietet die wertvolle Gelegenheit, die Topologie und Größe der großen Fermifläche, wie man sie in einem nahezu dreiwertigen RERh2Si2-Kondogitter erwarten würde, experimentell und in Abwesenheit von starken Renormierungseffekten auf die elektronische Struktur abzuschätzen. Wenn EuRh2Si2 in die antiferromagnetische Phase übergeht, verdoppelt sich die Größe der Einheitszelle und die Fermifläche wird gefaltet, wie wir mittels SX-ARPES beobachten konnten. Hochauflösende UV-ARPES-Messungen haben gezeigt, dass die Fermifläche aufgrund der Faltung eine deutliche Aufspaltung und Fragmentierung erfährt. Diverse Parallelen zwischen EuRh2Si2 und YbRh2Si2 und ihren magnetischen Korrelationen legen nahe, dass qualitativ ähnliche Änderungen in der Fermiflächentopologie aufgrund des Eintritts in die antiferromagnetische Phase auch für YbRh2Si2 von Bedeutung sein könnten. Dies könnte ernstzunehmende Folgen für das Verständnis des rätselhaften Quantenphasenübergangs in diesem System haben, die sicherlich in Betracht gezogen werden müssten. Der letzte Teil der Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit dem recht lang bestehenden Problem der Temperaturabhängigkeit des Fermiflächenvolumens in Kondogittern. Die Theorie sagt einen Übergang von einer großen zu einer kleinen Fermifläche mit größer werdender Temperatur voraus, da das 4f-Elektron (oder 4f-Loch in Yb-basierten Kondogittern) den Bereich starker Kopplung, in welchem sein Freiheitsgrad Teil des Fermi-Sees ist, verlässt und sich effektiv lokalisiert und vom Leitungsband entkoppelt. Dennoch fehlt bis heute ein umfassender experimenteller Nachweis dieser Vorhersage. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wurde mittels hochauflösender Comptonstreuung die Elektronenbesetzungszahldichte (EOND, vom englischen Ausdruck electron occupation number density) in YbRh2Si2 ermittelt, welche als Projektion des Fermivolumens auf eine zweidimensionale Ebene im Impulsraum verstanden werden kann. Unsere Messungen zeigten deutliche Veränderungen in der EOND in YbRh2Si2 zwischen 14 K und 300 K, die auf eine Rekonstruktion der Fermifläche mit zunehmender Temperatur zurückgeführt werden können. Aufgrund eines Vergleichs mit äquivalenten Messungen an YbCo2Si2, einem Referenzsystem für die kleine Fermifläche, schlussfolgern wir, dass die EOND von YbRh2Si2 bei 300 K eine kleine Fermifläche widerspiegelt, welche aus dem Übergang von einem großen zu einem kleinen Fermivolumen infolge des temperaturbedingten Zusammenbruchs des Kondogittereffekts resultiert. Das ist nach unserem Wissen das erste Experiment dieser Art, welches den temperaturinduzierten Übergang des Fermivolumens in einem Yb-basierten Kondogitter in umfassender Weise in der gesamten Brillouinzone visualisiert.
