HEP at University of Montenegro HEP = High Energy Physics HEP at the Department of Physics, University of Montenegro People in HEP from University of Montenegro Experience in HEP at University of Montenegro H1 – the main project in HEP at University of Montenegro N. Raičević, University of Montenegro October, 6-8, 2004, Dubrovnik

Some general information: 

Some general information 1979 - Education of Physicists in Montenegro begins at Department of Physics at Institute for Mathematics and Physics; 1988 - Department of Physics at Faculty of Science; Since 1979 – 15 assistants from the Department of Physics got PhD; 7 of those 15 PhDs were done in HEP HEP attractive and very popular among young physicists from the Department of Physics; BUT, Physicists at the Department of Physics are teaching stuff Department needs various profiles of Physics education young people who want to do PhD in HEP can hardly expect emploinment at the Department young people are going abroad for PhD study; N.

Leading project in HEP at University of Montenegro H1: 

Leading project in HEP at University of Montenegro H1 N. Raičević, University of Montenegro October, 6-8, 2004, Dubrovnik

Slide8: 

H1 is an international collaboration performing fundamental research in the field of High Energy Physics also known as Elementary Particle Physics.The H1 collaboration has built and operates the H1 detector, one of the big experiments taking data with colliding positron-proton beams at HERA . HERA is one of the facilities at the German national laboratory for elementary particle physics DESY (Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron) in Hamburg. The physics results are published in scientific journals. Since the Laboratory is committed to the academic education, students of the collaborating instituts perform their theses within the collaboration. H1 is a collaboration of about 400 scientists from 39 institutes of 12 countries throughout the world. N. Raičević, University of Montenegro October, 6-8, 2004, Dubrovnik

Slide9: 

Areas of Research The characteristics of the particles detected after such a collision provides access to the following areas of current research:    Structure Functions of the Proton, of the Pion, and of the Diffractive Exchange    Parton Distributions of Real and Virtual Photons    Tests of QCD in Jet, Particle, Photon, and Heavy-Quark Production    Tests of Electro-Weak Theory    Study of Non-Perturbative Phenomena of Strong Interactions    Diffractive Scattering and the Mechanism of Colour Neutralization    Searches for New Particles and New Interactions N. Raičević, University of Montenegro October, 6-8, 2004, Dubrovnik

Main activities on H1 of physicists from University of Montenegro: 

Main activities on H1 of physicists from University of Montenegro Detector performances Study of performances of Liquid-Argon trigger for HERA II data; Study of the FST performances and precision for HERA II data using γ → e+e- and K0 → π+ π - decay channels; New hardware component - Jet Trigger - software development and implementation; N. Raičević, University of Montenegro October, 6-8, 2004, Dubrovnik

Slide12: 

Physics Analysis Measurement of e+p neutral current (DIS) Deep Inelastic Scattering (e + p → e + X with high momentum transfer – Q2) cross section and the structure functions (results for HERA I data obtained and published); Measurement of e+p DIS cross section and the structure functions at low Q2 from data collected on H1 during 1999/2000 (preliminary result exists, but still work to be done; precision of measurement of F2 structure function expected to be on the level of 1%); Study of electron-proton charged current DIS processes (e + p → ν + X) from HERA II data; N.

Financial support from UNESCO used for H1 project so far: 

Financial support from UNESCO used for H1 project so far Stay of dr N. Raičević in Hamburg in the period 6-20th of June, 2004, and participation to the H1 Collaboration Meeting. Contribution of Dr N. Raičević to the June H1 Collaboration Meting 14.06.2004 - Trigger Meeting - Status report on triggers for nELAN working group for 2004 data; 15.06.2004 - nELAN working group meeting - Status report on DIS low Q2 analysis for data from 1999/2000 (attempt of using BST detector for analysis of data from 1999/2000); 16.06.2004. - Collaboration Board of H1 - Status Report on organization of 2004 outside H1 Collaboration Meeting in Budva in Montenegro in September 2004. N. Raičević, University of Montenegro October, 6-8, 2004, Dubrovnik

Status of University of Monetenegro in H1 collaboration: 

Status of University of Monetenegro in H1 collaboration Since 2002 - active participation of Physicists from University of Montenegro in H1 experiment; Until September 2004 - Montenegro physicists participated to H1 via German Institutes: - Dr S. Backović and Dr N. Raičević - members of H1 via DESY-Zeuthen Institute, - Dr A. Dubak and B. Vujičić - members of H1 via Max Plank Institute from Munich. September 2004, 13-17th - H1 Collaboration Meeting in Budva, Montengro; September 16th, 2004 - Collaboration Board of H1 made the decision that Faculty of Science, University of Montenegro becomes official member of H1 N. Raičević, University of Montenegro October, 6-8, 2004, Dubrovnik

Financial support for physicists from University of Montenegro working on H1: 

Financial support for physicists from University of Montenegro working on H1 During the stay of dr N. Raičević in Hamburg in June 2004, request for financial support for stays of Montenegro physicists in Germany was sent toward the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft - DFG (3 years project) DFG decision (still not received in written form) - about 2/3 of requested costs will be covered: - stay in DESY-Hamburg, MPI-Munich and DESY-Zeuthen (BUT not including travel costs) for physicists from University of Montenegro; - computing equipment on the level of about 7 kilo-euro; N. Raičević, University of Montenegro October, 6-8, 2004, Dubrovnik

Slide16: 

STILL, there is lot of space for financing this project: 1. Travel costs for the trips to Germany; 2. Financial support for conferences or workshops which are not held in Hamburg, Berlin or Munich; 3. Financial support for detector equipment for H1 which would be running costs contribution from the side of University of Montenegro and could give a possibility for an additional engagement of scientists from University of Montenegro in building or reparation of some detector component → possibility of including engineers from the Faculty of Electrical Engineering in H1 project. NOTE: University of Montenegro is the official member of HEP Collaboration for the first time! N. Raičević, University of Montenegro October, 6-8, 2004, Dubrovnik
