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
S. Aghion, C. Amsler, M. Antonello +62
Producing positronium (Ps) in the metastable state is of interest for various applications in fundamental physics. We report here about an experiment in which Ps atom…
