MANTA: A Negative-Triangularity NASEM-Compliant Fusion Pilot Plant
MANTA Collaboration, G. Rutherford, H. S. Wilson +38
The MANTA (Modular Adjustable Negative Triangularity ARC-class) design study investigated how negative-triangularity (NT) may be leveraged in a compact, fusion pilot plant (FPP) to…
The novel XYU-GEM to resolve ambiguities
K. J. Flöthner, F. Brunbauer, S. Ferry +16
Removing ambiguities within a single stage becomes crucial when one can not use multiple detectors behind each other to resolve them which naturally is the case for neutral radiati…
Search for Neutrino Emission from Gamma-Ray Flaring Blazars with the ANTARES Telescope
S. Adrián-MartÃnez, I. Al Samarai, A. Albert +159
The ANTARES telescope is well-suited to detect neutrinos produced in astrophysical transient sources as it can observe a full hemisphere of the sky at all times with a high duty cy…
Photocathode characterisation for robust PICOSEC Micromegas precise-timing detectors
M. Lisowska, R. Aleksan, Y. Angelis +55
The PICOSEC Micromegas detector is a~precise-timing gaseous detector based on a~Cherenkov radiator coupled with a~semi-transparent photocathode and a~Micromegas amplifying structur…
Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors as flatness and mechanical stretching sensors
D. Abbaneo, M. Abbas, M. Abbrescia +153
A novel approach which uses Fibre Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors has been utilised to assess and monitor the flatness of Gaseous Electron Multipliers (GEM) foils. The setup layout and…

The CMS GEM collaboration is considering Gas Electron Multipliers (GEMs) for upgrading the CMS forward muon system in the 1.5<|eta|<2.4 endcap region. GEM detectors can provide pre…
First search for neutrinos in correlation with gamma-ray bursts with the ANTARES neutrino telescope
S. Adrián-MartÃnez, I. Al Samarai, A. Albert +155
A search for neutrino-induced muons in correlation with a selection of 40 gamma-ray bursts that occurred in 2007 has been performed with the ANTARES neutrino telescope. During that…
The MAPS foil
S. Beolé, F. Carnesecchi, G. Contin +14
We present a method of embedding a Monolithic Active Pixel Sensor (MAPS) into a flexible printed circuit board (FPC) and its interconnection by means of through-hole copper plating…

An etale approach to the Novikov conjecture
A. Dranishnikov, S. Ferry, S. Weinberger
We show that the rational Novikov conjecture for a group of finite homological type follows from the mod 2 acyclicity of the Higson compactifcation of an E. We then show t…
