Study of cosmogenic activation above ground for the DarkSide-20k experiment
20k Collaboration
The activation of materials due to exposure to cosmic rays may become an important background source for experiments investigating rare event phenomena. DarkSide-20k, currently und…
Design and construction of a new detector to measure ultra-low radioactive-isotope contamination of argon
The DarkSide Collaboration, C. E. Aalseth, S. Abdelhakim +328
Large liquid argon detectors offer one of the best avenues for the detection of galactic weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) via their scattering on atomic nuclei. The liq…
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…
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…
Monitoring the hard X-ray sky with SuperAGILE
M. Feroci, E. Costa, E. Del Monte +77
SuperAGILE is the hard X-ray monitor of the AGILE gamma ray mission, in orbit since 23 April 2007. It is an imaging experiment based on a set of four independent silicon str…
