Energy Response and Resolution to Positrons in a Capillary-Tube Dual-Readout Calorimeter
Sebastiano Francesco Albergo, Alessandro Braghieri, Alexander Burdyko +22
We present the results of a test beam campaign on a capillary-tube fibre-based dual-readout calorimeter, designed for precise hadronic and electromagnetic energy measurements in fu…
Exposing a fibre-based dual-readout calorimeter to a positron beam
N. Ampilogov, S. Cometti, J. Agarwala +14
A prototype of a dual-readout calorimeter using brass capillary tubes surrounding scintillating and clear plastic optical fibres was tested using beams of particles with energies b…
A cryogenic tracking detector for antihydrogen detection in the AEgIS experiment
C. Amsler, M. Antonello, A. Belov +55
We present the commissioning of the Fast Annihilation Cryogenic Tracker detector (FACT), installed around the antihydrogen production trap inside the 1 T superconducting magnet of…
Dual-Readout Calorimetry for Future Experiments Probing Fundamental Physics
I. Pezzotti, Harvey Newman, J. Freeman +22
In this White Paper for the 2021 Snowmass process, we detail the status and prospects for dual-readout calorimetry. While all calorimeters allow estimation of energy depositions in…
Assessment of the potential of SiPM-based systems for bioluminescence detection
S. Lomazzi, M. Caccia, C. Distasi +6
Bioluminescence detection requires single-photon sensitivity, extremely low detection limits and wide dynamic range. Such performances were traditionally assured by photomultiplier…
Rydberg-positronium velocity and self-ionization studies in 1T magnetic field and cryogenic environment
M. Antonello, A. Belov, G. Bonomi R. S. Brusa +43
We characterized the pulsed Rydberg-positronium production inside the AEgIS (Antimatter Experiment: Gravity, Interferometry, Spectroscopy) apparatus in view of antihydrogen formati…
Efficient positronium production by stimulated decay from the level
M. Antonello, A. Belov, G. Bonomi +48
We investigate experimentally the possibility of enhancing the production of positronium atoms by driving the - and - transitions, overcoming the nat…
Optimizing Silicon photomultipliers for Quantum Optics
Giovanni Chesi, Luca Malinverno, Alessia Allevi +4
Silicon Photomultipliers are potentially ideal detectors for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information studies based on mesoscopic states of light. However, their non-idealities hampe…
Measuring nonclassicality with Silicon photomultipliers
Giovanni Chesi, Luca Malinverno, Alessia Allevi +3
Detector stochastic deviations from an ideal response can hamper the measurement of quantum properties of light especially in the mesoscopic regime where photon-number resolution i…
Velocity selected production of metastable positronium
C. Amsler, M. Antonello, A. Belov +52
Positronium in the metastable state exhibits a low electrical polarizability and a long lifetime (1140 ns) making it a promising candidate for interferometry experiments wit…
Tests of a dual-readout fiber calorimeter with SiPM light sensors
M. Antonello, M. Caccia, M. Cascella +16
In this paper, we describe the first tests of a dual-readout fiber calorimeter in which silicon photomultipliers are used to sense the (scintillation and Cherenkov) light signals.…
Producing long-lived Ps via laser excitation in magnetic and electric fields
