Katie Petts said that she would compare Spangler to someone like Jack Sparrow. “She’s the odd character that everyone loves,” Petts said. But, frankly, not everyone loves Spangler. Some make statements such as, “She’s off in her own little world singing songs. I can’t connect with her,” or “I just want to tell her that she is not making the world better by being so obnoxious,” or “I don’t get her at all, nor do I want to.” It’s not as if her strangeness goes away when one gets to know her. Actually, the more one knows her, the stranger she seems. A good place to begin the search for evidence of this deeper strangeness, is in her room. Spangler’s room hosts many oddities. Piles of clothing, dishes and books are spewed sporadically on the floor.

  • Dissertation Submitted to the Combined Faculties for the Natural
    Dissertation submitted to the Combined Faculties for the Natural Sciences and for Mathematics of the Ruperto-Carola University of Heidelberg, Germany for the degree of Doctor of Natural Sciences presented by Dipl. Phys. Johann Peter Peiffer born in Bremen. Oral examination: July 25, 2007 Liquid argon as active shielding and coolant for bare germanium detectors A novel background suppression method for the G erda 0vj3j3 experiment Referees: Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Hampel Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Kratschmer Abstract Two of the most important open questions in particle physics are whether neutrinos are their own anti-particles (Majorana particles) as required by most extensions of the Standard Model and the absolute values of the neutrino masses. The neutrinoless double beta (0iy/3/3) decay, which can be investigated using 76Ge (a double beta isotope), is the most sensitive probe for these properties. There is a claim for an evidence for the 0v/3/3 decay in the Heidelberg-Moscow (HdM) 76Ge experiment by a part of the HdM collaboration. The new 76Ge experiment G erda aims to check this claim within one year with 15 kg y of statistics in Phase I at a background level of <10"2 events/(kg-keV-y) and to go to higher sensitivity with 100 kg y of statistics in Phase II at a background level of <10"3 events/(kg keV y). In GERDA bare germanium semiconductor detectors (enriched in 76Ge) will be operated in liquid argon (LAr). LAr serves as cryogenic coolant and as high purity shielding against external background. To reach the background level for Phase II, new methods are required to suppress the cosmogenic background of the diodes.
