On the efficiency of techniques for the reduction of impulsive noise in astronomical images
A. Popowicz, A. R. Kurek, T. Blachowicz +2
The impulsive noise in astronomical images originates from various sources. It develops as a result of thermal generation in pixels, collision of cosmic rays with image sensor or m…
Performance of a First Full-Size WOM-Based Liquid Scintillator Detector Cell as Prototype for the SHiP Surrounding Background Tagger
J. Alt, O. Bezshyyko, M. Böhles +21
As a prototype detector for the SHiP Surrounding Background Tagger (SBT), we constructed a cell (120 cm x 80 cm x 25 cm) made from corten steel that is filled with liquid scintilla…
First measurement of the surface tension of a liquid scintillator based on Linear Alkylbenzene (HYBLENE 113)
SHiP SBT collaboration, J. Alt, J. Arutinov +29
We measured the surface tension of linear alkylbenzene (LAB) HYBLENE 113 mixed with Diphenyloxazole (PPO) as well as of pure LAB HYBLENE 113 as part of material studies for the liq…
The LHCb upgrade I
LHCb collaboration, R. Aaij, A. S. W. Abdelmotteleb +1305
The LHCb upgrade represents a major change of the experiment. The detectors have been almost completely renewed to allow running at an instantaneous luminosity five times larger th…
