New results on e+e- -> hadrons exclusive cross sections from experiments with SND detector at VEPP-2M e+e- collider in the energy range sqrt(s)=0.4-1.4 GeV

New results of the e+e- -> pi+pi-, K+K-, K_SK_L, pi0/gamma, eta0/gamma processes cross section measurements are presented. The results are based on the 30 pb^-1 data, accumulated by SND detector at VEPP-2M e+e- collider in the energy range sqrt(s)=0.4-1.4 GeV during 1995-2000 years. The comparison with existing experimental data shows that the measurement accuracy is close to or better than the world average. For the e+e- -> pi+pi- process the accuracy is about 0.01. This is important for calculation of hadronic contribution into the muon anomalous magnetic moment.

Study of the process $e^+e^- \to π^+π^-$ in the energy region 400<\sqrt[]{s}<1000 MeV

The cross section of the process e^+e^-\to π^+π^- was measured in the SND experiment at the VEPP-2M collider in the energy region 400<\sqrt[]{s}<1000 MeV. This measurement was based on about 12.4 \times 10^6 selected collinear events, which include 7.4\times 10^6 e^+e^-\to e^+e^-, 4.5\times 10^6 e^+e^-\toπ^+π^- and 0.5\times 10^6 e^+e^-\toμ^+μ^- selected events. The systematic uncertainty of the cross section determination is 1.3 %. The ρ-meson parameters were determined: m_ρ=774.9\pm 0.4\pm 0.5 MeV, Γ_ρ=146.5\pm 0.8\pm 1.5 MeV, σ(ρ\toπ^+π^-)=1220\pm 7\pm 16 nb as well as the parameters of the G-parity suppressed decay ω\toπ^+π^-: σ(ω\toπ^+π^-)=29.9\pm 1.4\pm 1.0 nb and ϕ_{ρω} = 113.5\pm 1.3\pm 1.7 degree.

Photon splitting in atomic fields

Photon splitting due to vacuum polarization in the electric field of an atom is considered. We survey different theoretical approaches to the description of this nonlinear QED process and several attempts of its experimental observation. We present the results of the lowest-order perturbation theory as well as those obtained within the quasiclassical approximation being exact in the external field strength. The experiment where photon splitting was really observed for the first time is discussed in details. The results of this experiment are compared with recent theoretical estimations.

Experimental investigation of high-energy photon splitting in atomic fields

The new data analysis of the experiment, where the photon splitting in the atomic fields has been observed for the first time, is presented. This experiment was performed at the tagged photon beam of the ROKK-1M facility at the VEPP-4M collider. In the energy region of 120-450 MeV, the statistics of $1.6\cdot 10^9$ photons incident on the BGO target was collected. About 400 candidates to the photon splitting events were reconstructed. Within the attained experimental accuracy, the experimental results are consistent with the cross section calculated exactly in an atomic field. The predictions obtained in the Born approximation significantly differ from the experimental results.

Compact vacuum phototriodes for operation in strong magnetic field

The results of tests of 1'' vacuum phototriodes in a magnetic field up to 4.5 T are presented. It was found that output amplitude decreases by about 6 % per tesla in the magnetic field range from 2.0 to 4.0 T. For devices with an anode mesh pitch of 16$μ$m, the output amplitude at 4.0 T is 30 % lower than that at zero field.

Delbrück scattering at energies 140 - 450 MeV

The differential cross section of Delbrück scattering is measured on a bismuth germanate $Bi_4Ge_3O_{12}$ target at photon energies $140 - 450 MeV$ and scattering angles $2.6 - 16.6 mrad$. A good agreement with the theoretical results, obtained exactly in a Coulomb field, is found.
