    Design and tests of the silicon sensors for the ZEUS micro vertex detector

    To fully exploit the HERA-II upgrade, the ZEUS experiment has installed a Micro Vertex Detector (MVD) using n-type, single-sided, silicon mu-strip sensors with capacitive charge division. The sensors have a readout pitch of 120 mum, with five intermediate strips (20 mum strip pitch). The designs of the silicon sensors and of the test structures used to verify the technological parameters, are presented. Results on the electrical measurements are discussed. A total of 1123 sensors with three different geometries have been produced by Hamamatsu Photonics K.K. Irradiation tests with reactor neutrons and Co-60 photons have been performed for a small sample of sensors. The results on neutron irradiation (with a fluence of 1 x 10(13) 1 MeV equivalent neutrons/cm(2)) are well described by empirical formulae for bulk damage. The Co-60 photons (with doses up to 2.9 kGy) show the presence of generation currents in the SiO2-Si interface. a large shift of the flatband voltage and a decrease of the hole mobility

    Reading the Household: Towards an Economic and Textual Understanding of Early English Drama

    No full text
    Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Washington, 2015This dissertation examines the domestic household's relationship to early English dramatic narratives from the fourteenth century to the start of the professional London stage. During this period the English household--understood as the basic unit of economic production in society--was both a source of public fascination and an active site of cultural and political meaning. Early English drama repeatedly dramatized household tensions, articulating the complicated social and economic arrangements found within contemporary households. This dissertation studies the English domestic household as a playing space and a dramatic subject while tracing the household's shaping influence on a wide range of early dramatic texts. Attending not only to household players and spectators, the project also traces the history of dramatic "book use": how plays were physically used, read, and altered by household readers. Using economic history, the dissertation examines the domestic household's material and ideological engagement with dramatic narratives while making a contribution to current research in the fields of early English drama and book history

    Contextual studies of the dramatic records in the area around The Wash, c. 1350-1550

    This thesis engages in a number of contextual studies of the records of dramatic activity in the area around The Wash during a period ranging from the fourteenth to the sixteenth centuries. In doing so, it does not limit itself strictly to mimetic drama, but engages in such examinations of the `paradramatic' and other records as are necessary to highlight the socio-cultural history and also the documentary context of entertainment in this area. Although this is based on the Malone Society's edited collections of records for plays and players in Norfolk and in Lincolnshire, entirely new and carefully edited transcriptions of extracts from all the surviving documents that are discussed are provided in a series of appendices. From these transcriptions, the greater Wash area is seen to have records which evince a highly dramatic culture dependent on entertainment and social ritual. The surviving records of King's Lynn, Snettisham, the Lestrange household of Hunstanton, Tilney All Saints, Leverton, Long Sutton and Sutterton are studied in depth with reference to surrounding communities. The nature of the study in each town is determined not only by the type of primary documentary evidence which survives, but also the entertainment recorded within these sources. Many new records accidentally passed over by the Malone Society have been found and transcribed. In addition, those records not within the scope of the Malone Society's publication guidelines but which give a documentary context to records under consideration are also transcribed. The area around The Wash is seen to possess a wide range of entertainment deeply connected to its social and religious culture

    Revels End: A Conceptual History of the Late Medieval and Early Modern English University Stage

    Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Washington, 2014Academic drama has, once again, been rediscovered after being largely ignored by the New Critics and the historicists during the second half of the last century. The vast majority of this recent attention - most notably Jonathan Walker and Paul Streufert's collection Early Modern Academic Drama (2008) - considers theatrical performance in the universities as a pedagogical instrument within a larger humanist educational program. My dissertation, "Revels End: A Conceptual History of the Late Medieval and Early Modern English Academic Stage," presents the stage as a localized site within the two most ancient English universities. Focusing on the site of performance, my project examines the theatrical events and the curious textuality of the works associated with the university stage as it emerged from the medieval period. In this effort I rely on the evidence found in the Records of Early English Drama (REED) volumes for Oxford (2004) and Cambridge (1989) and the two publication runs of Renaissance Latin Drama in England from Georg Olms Verlag Press (1983-92). Adapting the methodologies of Richard Beadle and Alexandra Johnson, I argue that the academic stage was an ephemeral and temporary site within the university governed by the conventions of community festive drama. In this regard, the experience of playing was often at direct odds with the emergent humanist pedagogy of drama. Official reactions to the unpredictable reality of staged performances kept the academic stage uncomfortably perched on the margins of other discursive centers, namely: the university curriculum, the local government and ecclesial apparatus, the pan-European humanist movement, the vernacular stage and the nascent professional stage. Furthermore, the textuality of the academic dramas discloses that scholars memorialized the experience of playing over and above the texts of individual dramas. The argument is presented in two distinct parts. The first half of my dissertation draws from archival sources and readings of the earliest extant academic dramas with the texts and records of Merton College's Christmas lord traditions, which dates from the late thirteenth to the early sixteenth century, the records of Edward Watson's 1512 degree play and Thomas Chaundler's 1460 play, Liber apologeticus de omni statu humanae naturae. A close examination of this underappreciated work reveals that Chaundler, who twice served as the Chancellor of the University of Oxford, deploys popular dramatic forms drawn from the cycle plays and the morality tradition as a humanist gambit. The first half concludes with an analysis of the effects of the English reformation on the university stage, arguing the English reformation's attack on the festive culture greatly reduces the diversity of the productions in academic institutions. In this effort I draw attention to the texts associated with a 1522 performance of Miles Gloriosus in Trinity Hall, Cambridge directed by Stephen Gardiner, a 1545 performance of the protestant propaganda play Pammachius in Christ's College Hall, and the textuality of three academic dramas published during the Henrician reformation, Nicholas Grimald's Christus Redivivus (1544) and (1546) and John Christopherson's Jephthah (1546). The second half of my dissertation turns to the academic stage's history of interpretation, as told through the critical reception and editorial treatment of one of its most important sources, the St. John's College, Oxford MS 52.1. This manuscript contains the spectacular Jacobean text, The Christmas Prince, which memorializes the college's 1607-08 winter revels. I dispute the claims of an earlier generation of editors and critics, who, like F.S. Boas, saw in it the seamless continuation of medieval dramatic practices in the post-reformation university
