A complete simulation of the X-ARAPUCA device for detection of scintillation photons
Laura Paulucci, Franciole Marinho, Ana Amélia Machado +1
The concept of the ARAPUCA device is relatively new and involves increasing the effective area for photon collection of SiPMs by the use of a box with highly reflective internal wa…
The Liquid Argon In A Testbeam (LArIAT) Experiment
LArIAT Collaboration, R. Acciarri, C. J. Adams +103
The LArIAT liquid argon time projection chamber, placed in a tertiary beam of charged particles at the Fermilab Test Beam Facility, has collected large samples of pions, muons, ele…
Calorimetry for low-energy electrons using charge and light in liquid argon
W. Foreman, R. Acciarri, J. A. Asaadi +60
Precise calorimetric reconstruction of 5-50 MeV electrons in liquid argon time projection chambers (LArTPCs) will enable the study of astrophysical neutrinos in DUNE and could enha…
Measuring light with light dependent resistors: an easy approach for optics experiments
F. Marinho, C. M. Carvalho, F. R. Apolinário +1
We entertain the use of light dependent resistors as a viable option as measuring sensors in optics laboratory experiments or classroom demonstrations. The main advantages of these…
Near-Earth Supernova Explosions: Evidence, Implications, and Opportunities
Brian D. Fields, John R. Ellis, Walter R. Binns +36
There is now solid experimental evidence of at least one supernova explosion within 100 pc of Earth within the last few million years, from measurements of the short-lived isotope…
