First measurement of kaonic deuterium X-ray transitions
Massimiliano Bazzi, Francesco Clozza, Carlo Guaraldo +39
The study of the strong interaction among hadrons at low energies remains one of the key challenges in fundamental physics because of its non-perturbative nature, which makes theor…
Kaonic Copper and Fluorine Absolute Yields Measurement with a CZT-based Detection System at DANE
Francesco Artibani, Simone Manti, Leonardo Abbene +36
\noindent In this work, new measurements of absolute X-ray yields for several transitions in kaonic copper and, for the first time, in kaonic fluorine are reported. The data were c…
Probing Nuclear Structure with Kaonic Atoms through E2 Resonance Mixing
Simone Manti, Luca De Paolis, Leonardo Abbene +33
Kaonic atoms provide a unique laboratory to investigate the interplay between atomic, nuclear, and strong-interaction physics. In heavy nuclei, atomic transitions can couple to low…
CZT Detectors for kaonic atoms spectroscopy
Francesco Artibani, Leonardo Abbene, Antonino Buttacavoli +36
Cadmium zinc telluride (CZT) detectors offer excellent room-temperature energy resolution, making them well suited for X- and -ray spectroscopy in challenging environments. Wit…
Recent Developments of the VOXES Von Hamos X-ray Spectrometer for Laboratory XES and XAS Studies
Simone Manti, Alberto Clozza, Gabriel Moskal +5
VOXES is a Von Hamos X-ray spectrometer developed at the INFN National Laboratories of Frascati for high-resolution laboratory X-ray spectroscopy in the 5--20~keV range. It uses cu…
Extended X-ray energy characterization of SIDDHARTA-2 large-area Silicon Drift Detectors up to 50 keV
Francesco Clozza, Francesco Sgaramella, Leonardo Abbene +38
The SIDDHARTA-2 experiment at the DANE collider of INFN-LNF performs high precision light kaonic atoms X-ray spectroscopy to investigate the kaon-nucleon(s) strong interaction…
