Production of technical parts for Mechanical Engineering field is very important. There are many conditions which the produced parts have to satisfy. Very important for functional parts are accuracy ...of final parts. This accuracy could be evaluated in different ways. For example it can be evaluated shape accuracy or dimensional accuracy. This paper is focused to Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM) technology which is used for Additive Manufacturing process. The parts in additive manufacturing are produced directly from virtual model and digital file which could be obtained by direct modelling with CAD software of by 3D scanning. Published paper deals realized research where the full factor experiment was prepared and measured shape and dimensional accuracy of produced specimens. There are designed two types of specimens with different shapes and dimensions. Digital models are processed with different different 3D printer settings. Measured values are evaluated by statistical methods.
We study B --> K(*)l+l- decays (l = e, mu) based on a data sample of 657 x 10(6) BB pairs collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB e+e- collider. We report the differential branching fraction, ...isospin asymmetry, K* polarization, and the forward-backward asymmetry (A(FB)) as functions of q2 = M(ll)(2)c2. The fitted A(FB) spectrum exceeds the standard model expectation by 2.7 standard deviations. The measured branching fractions are B(B --> K*l+l-) = (10.7(-1.0)(+1.1) +/- 0.9) x 10(-7) and B(B --> Kl+l-) = (4.8(-0.4)(+0.5) +/- 0.3) x 10(-7), where the first errors are statistical and the second are systematic, with the muon to electron ratios R(K*) = 0.83 +/- 0.17 +/- 0.08 and R(K) = 1.03 +/- 0.19 +/- 0.06.
The cross section for e(+)e(-)-->pi(+)pi(-)J/psi between 3.8 and 5.5 GeV/c(2) is measured using a 548 fb(-1) data sample collected on or near the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at ...KEKB. A peak near 4.25 GeV/c(2), corresponding to the so called Y(4260), is observed. In addition, there is another cluster of events at around 4.05 GeV/c(2). A fit using two interfering Breit-Wigner shapes describes the data better than one that uses only the Y(4260), especially for the lower-mass side of the 4.25 GeV enhancement.
The cross section for e+ e- --> pi+ pi- psi(2S) between threshold and sqrts=5.5 GeV is measured using 673 fb(-1) of data on and off the Upsilon(4S) resonance collected with the Belle detector at ...KEKB. Two resonant structures are observed in the pi+ pi- psi(2S) invariant-mass distribution, one at 4361 +/- 9 +/- 9 MeV/c2 with a width of 74 +/- 15 +/- 10 MeV/c2, and another at 4664 +/- 11 +/- 5 MeV/c2 with a width of 48 +/- 15 +/- 3 MeV/c2, if the mass spectrum is parametrized with the coherent sum of two Breit-Wigner functions. These values do not match those of any of the known charmonium states.
Here, we present a measurement of angular observables and a test of lepton flavor universality in the B → K*ℓ+ℓ- decay, where ℓ is either e or μ . The analysis is performed on a data sample ...corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 711fb-1 containing 772×106 B B ¯ pairs, collected at the Υ ( 4S ) resonance with the Belle detector at the asymmetric-energy e+e- collider KEKB. The finding is consistent with standard model (SM) expectations, where the largest discrepancy from a SM prediction is observed in the muon modes with a local significance of 2.6σ .
In the forward end-cap of the Belle II spectrometer, particle identification is provided by a proximity focusing RICH detector with an aerogel radiator (ARICH). The ARICH’s primary function is to ...effectively distinguish between pions and kaons in the momentum range of 0.5GeV/c to about 4GeV/c, as well as to contribute to identification of low-momentum leptons. Since its operation began, Belle II has collected over 420fb−1 of data. Based on this large data sample, studies of several effects that impact the performance of the ARICH detector were carried out. In this paper, we present a comparison of the observed Cherenkov ring image and detector particle identification performance in the measured data and detector simulation. Furthermore, we highlight recent efforts aimed at enhancing the ARICH’s performance by taking into account the effects of particle decay in flight and scattering in materials before the detector, as well as by refining the probability density function used for particle identification likelihood evaluation.

In our previous studies, we have shown that silicon photo-multipliers can be used as single photon detectors in a RICH counter (Korpar et al., 2009, 2010 1 and 2). Their main advantage with respect ...to the classical photo-multiplier tubes is the operation in high magnetic fields, while their disadvantage is a relatively high dark count rate. Recently, Hamamatsu made commercially available sensors with a rather low dark count rate ( approximately 0.1 MHz/mm super(2)) and with a larger active area, offering a possibility for a much better signal-to-noise ratio. We have designed, constructed and tested a module with Hamamatsu 88 channel S11834 MPPCs. To increase the geometric acceptance, light concentrators have been employed. In the present contribution we discuss the results of studies of the light concentrator design optimization and of the detector module response to fast light pulses. Also presented are the results of RICH prototype tests in a test beam.
We present a search for lepton-flavor-violating τ decays into three leptons (electrons or muons) using 782 fb−1 of data collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e− collider. ...No evidence for these decays is observed and we set 90% confidence level upper limits on the branching fractions between 1.5×10−8 and 2.7×10−8.
