Effective exploitation of a geyser bubble-chamber equipment as a background-free fast neutron detector
R. Bertoni, G. Bruno, N. Burgio +10
MOSCAB equipment, a geyser-concept bubble-chamber originally thought for the search of dark matter in the form of WIMPs, is employed for the detection of fast neutrons. Once the ba…
Characterization of TRIGA RC-1 neutron irradiation facilities for radiation damage testing
Davide Chiesa, Mario Carta, Valentina Fabrizio +9
This paper presents the results of neutron flux measurements at two irradiation facilities of the TRIGA Mark II reactor at ENEA Casaccia Research Center, Italy. The goal of these m…
Radiation hardness test of un-doped CsI crystals and Silicon Photomultipliers for the Mu2e calorimeter
Stefania Baccaro, Alessia Cemmi, Marco Cordelli +7
The Mu2e calorimeter is composed by 1400 un-doped CsI crystals coupled to large area UV extended Silicon Photomultipliers arranged in two annular disks. This calorimeter has to pro…
Longitudinal uniformity, time performance and irradiation test of pure CsI crystals
M. Angelucci, O. Atanova, S. Baccaro +8
To study an alternative to BaF2, as the crystal choice for the Mu2e calorimeter, thirteen pure CsI crystals from Opto Materials and ISMA producers have been characterized by determ…
Production and Characterization of 228Th Calibration Sources with Low Neutron Emission for GERDA
Laura Baudis, Giovanni Benato, Pierluigi Carconi +7
The GERDA experiment at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS) searches for the neutrinoless double beta decay of 76-Ge. In view of the GERDA Phase II data collection, four…
VUV-Vis optical characterization of Tetraphenyl-butadiene films on glass and specular reflector substrates from room to liquid Argon temperature
R. Francini, R. M. Montereali, E. Nichelatti +8
The use of efficient wavelength-shifters from the vacuum-ultraviolet to the photosensor's range of sensitivity is a key feature in detectors for Dark Matter search and neutrino phy…
