Performance of the Micromegas detector in the CAST experiment
S. Aune, T. Dafni, G. Fanourakis +7
The gaseous Micromegas detector designed for the CERN Axion search experiment CAST, operated smoothly during Phase-I, which included the 2003 and 2004 running periods. It exhibited…
Progress on a spherical TPC for low energy neutrino detection
S Aune, P Colas, H Deschamps +18
The new concept of the spherical TPC aims at relatively large target masses with low threshold and background, keeping an extremely simple and robust operation. Such a device would…
A low background Micromegas detector for the CAST experiment
P. Abbon, S. Andriamonje, S. Aune +21
A low background Micromegas detector has been operating on the CAST experiment at CERN for the search of solar axions during the first phase of the experiment (2002-2004). The dete…
Search for solar axions: the CAST experiment at CERN
Berta Beltran
Hypothetical axion-like particles with a two-photon interaction would be produced in the sun by the Primakoff process. In a laboratory magnetic field they would be transformed into…
NOSTOS: a spherical TPC to detect low energy neutrinos
S. Aune, P. Colas, J. Dolbeau +14
A novel low-energy (few keV) neutrino-oscillation experiment NOSTOS, combining a strong tritium source and a high pressure spherical Time Projection Chamber (TPC) detector 10…
NOSTOS experiment and new trends in rare event detection
I. Giomataris, S. Aune, P. Colas +9
A novel low-energy neutrino-oscillation experiment NOSTOS, combining a strong tritium source and a high pressure spherical TPC detector (10 m in radius) has been recently proposed.…
