ARIADNE -- A Novel Optical LArTPC: Technical Design Report and Initial Characterisation using a Secondary Beam from the CERN PS and Cosmic Muons
D. Hollywood, K. Majumdar, K. Mavrokoridis +8
ARIADNE is a 1-ton (330 kg fiducial mass) dual-phase liquid argon (LAr) time projection chamber (TPC) featuring a novel optical readout. Four electron-multiplying charge-coupled de…
Recent results and prospects for NA62 experiment
Silvia Martellotti
The decay is theoretically one of the cleanest meson decays and so a good place to look for indirect effects of new physics complementary to LHC search…
First Demonstration of Imaging Cosmic Muons in a Two-Phase Liquid Argon TPC using an EMCCD Camera and a THGEM
K. Mavrokoridis, J. Carroll, K. J. McCormick +4
Colossal two-phase Liquid Argon Time Projection Chambers (LAr TPCs) are a proposed option for future long-baseline neutrino experiments. This study illustrates the feasibility of u…
Optical Readout of a Two Phase Liquid Argon TPC using CCD Camera and THGEMs
K. Mavrokoridis, F. Ball, J. Carroll +5
This paper presents a preliminary study into the use of CCDs to image secondary scintillation light generated by THick Gas Electron Multipliers (THGEMs) in a two phase LAr TPC. A S…
Argon Purification Studies and a Novel Liquid Argon Re-circulation System
K. Mavrokoridis, R. G. Calland, J. Coleman +4
Future giant liquid argon (LAr) time projection chambers (TPCs) require a purity of better than 0.1 parts per billion (ppb) to allow the ionised electrons to drift without signific…
Towards a liquid Argon TPC without evacuation: filling of a 6 m^3 vessel with argon gas from air to ppm impurities concentration through flushing
A. Curioni, L. Epprecht, A. Gendotti +11
In this paper we present a successful experimental test of filling a volume of 6 m with argon gas, starting from normal ambient air and reducing the impurities content down to…
