Upgrade of the CMS Resistive Plate Chambers for the High Luminosity LHC
A. Samalan, M. Tytgat, G. A. Alves +108
During the upcoming High Luminosity phase of the Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC), the integrated luminosity of the accelerator will increase to 3000 fb. The expected experime…
Study on the effects of the restrictive measures for containment of the COVID-19 pandemic on the reproduction number in Italian regions
Gianluca Bonifazi, Luca Lista, Dario Menasce +4
Since November 6, 2020, Italian regions have been classified according to four levels, corresponding to specific risk scenarios, for which specific restrictive meas…
Modeling the triple-GEM detector response to background particles for the CMS Experiment
M. Abbas, M. Abbrescia, H. Abdalla +186
An estimate of environmental background hit rate on triple-GEM chambers is performed using Monte Carlo (MC) simulation and compared to data taken by test chambers installed in the…
Performance of a Triple-GEM Demonstrator in Collisions at the CMS Detector
M. Abbas, M. Abbrescia, H. Abdalla +178
After the Phase-2 high-luminosity upgrade to the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the collision rate and therefore the background rate will significantly increase, particularly in the…
A statistical analysis of death rates in Italy for the years 2015-2020 and a comparison with the casualties reported for the COVID-19 pandemic
Gianluca Bonifazi, Luca Lista, Dario Menasce +5
We analyze the data about casualties in Italy in the period 01/01/2015 to 30/09/2020 released by the Italian National Institute of Statistics (ISTAT). The data exhibit a clear sinu…
A study on the possible merits of using symptomatic cases to trace the development of the COVID-19 pandemic
Gianluca Bonifazi, Luca Lista, Dario Menasce +4
In a recent work we introduced a novel method to compute the effective reproduction number and we applied it to describe the development of the COVID-19 outbreak in Italy. Th…
