Proceedings of the first Congress on North-South collaboration in Physics research

The first Congress on North-South collaboration in Physics research was held in Oujda Morocco, between April 9th and 13th, 2007. The congress was based on talks giving an overview of relevant subjects both from experiments and theory in all fields of physics. They focused on projects which could bring fruitful collaborations between Europe and under developed countries. The congress was meant to bring experience and skills to these countries in research and teaching at the doctoral level.

Response Uniformity of the ATLAS Liquid Argon Electromagnetic Calorimeter

The construction of the ATLAS electromagnetic liquid argon calorimeter modules is completed and all the modules are assembled and inserted in the cryostats. During the production period four barrel and three endcap modules were exposed to test beams in order to assess their performance, ascertain the production quality and reproducibility, and to scrutinize the complete energy reconstruction chain from the readout and calibration electronics to the signal and energy reconstruction. It was also possible to check the full Monte Carlo simulation of the calorimeter. The analysis of the uniformity, resolution and extraction of constant term is presented. Typical non-uniformities of 0.5% and typical global constant terms of 0.6% are measured for the barrel and end-cap modules.

Experimental study of a proximity focusing Cherenkov counter prototype for the AMS experiment

A study prototype of Proximity Focussing Ring Imaging Cherenkov counter has been built and tested with several radiators using separately cosmic-ray particles and 12C beam fragmentation products at several energies. Counter prototype and experimental setup are described, and the results of measurements reported and compared with simulation results.The performances are discussed in the perspective of the final counter design.
