Calibration of AGILE-GRID with on-ground data and Monte Carlo simulations
P. W. Cattaneo, A. Rappoldi, A. Argan +41
AGILE is a mission of the Italian Space Agency (ASI) Scientific Program dedicated to gamma-ray astrophysics, operating in a low Earth orbit since April 23, 2007. It is designed to…
IRIDE White Book, An Interdisciplinary Research Infrastructure based on Dual Electron linacs&lasers
D. Alesini, M. Alessandroni, M. P. Anania +211
This report describes the scientific aims and potentials as well as the preliminary technical design of IRIDE, an innovative tool for multi-disciplinary investigations in a wide fi…
Measurement of the thermal expansion coefficient of an Al-Mg alloy at ultra-low temperatures
Massimo Bassan, Bruno Buonomo, Giorgio Cavallari +12
We describe a result coming from an experiment based on an Al-Mg alloy (~ 5% Mg) suspended bar hit by an electron beam and operated above and below the termperature of transition f…
First results about on-ground calibration of the Silicon Tracker for the AGILE satellite
AGILE Collaboration, P. W. Cattaneo, A. Argan +65
The AGILE scientific instrument has been calibrated with a tagged -ray beam at the Beam Test Facility (BTF) of the INFN Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati (LNF). The goal of the c…
Quantifying the unknown: issues in simulation validation and their experimental impact
M. G. Pia, M. Batic, G. Hoff +10
The assessment of the reliability of Monte Carlo simulations is discussed, with emphasis on uncertainty quantification and the related impact on experimental results. Methods and t…
Characterization of a tagged -ray beam line at the DANE Beam Test Facility
P. W. Cattaneo, A. Argan, F. Boffelli +64
At the core of the AGILE scientific instrument, designed to operate on a satellite, there is the Gamma Ray Imaging Detector (GRID) consisting of a Silicon Tracker (ST), a Cesium Io…
