Comprehensive characterization of a YAG:Ce scintillator: light yield, alpha quenching and pulse-shape discrimination
L. Gironi, S. Dell'Oro, E. Giussani +4
Solid-state scintillators are widely used in particle and applied physics due to their versatility and resistance to diverse environments and operating conditions. This broad range…
Neutrino NSI in archaeological Pb
D. Alloni, G. Benato, P. Carniti +47
Dark matter direct detection experiments can observe solar neutrinos via coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering, making it possible to test new physics in the neutrino sector…
NTL-amplified cryogenic light detectors with optically transparent electrodes
Matteo Biassoni, Andrea Nava, Oscar Azzolini +21
The Neganov-Trofimov-Luke (NTL) effect is used by experiments based on cryogenic detectors to boost the sensitivity of light-sensitive devices down to a few optical photons. In thi…
Search for Sterile Neutrinos with CUPID-0
O. Azzolini, J. W. Beeman, F. Bellini +50
Sterile neutrinos are well-motivated extensions of the Standard Model, introduced to address fundamental questions such as the origin of neutrino masses and the nature of dark matt…
A Wide Bandwidth Trans-impedance Amplifier for Picosecond-Scale SiPM Characterization in a Wide Temperature Range
P. Carniti, C. Gotti, G. Pessina +1
Future high-energy physics experiments using SiPMs as photosensitive elements may require operation at low temperatures (down to 80 K) to measure single photons with high time reso…
Luminosity measurement with the LHCb RICH detectors in Run 3
Paula Alvarez Cartelle, Alessia Anelli, Anna Balboni +58
The LHCb Ring-Imaging Cherenkov detectors are built to provide charged hadron identification over a large range of momentum. The upgraded detectors are also capable of providing an…
