VUV-Vis optical characterization of Tetraphenyl-butadiene films on glass and specular reflector substrates from room to liquid Argon temperature

R. Francini, R. M. Montereali, E. Nichelatti +8

The use of efficient wavelength-shifters from the vacuum-ultraviolet to the photosensor's range of sensitivity is a key feature in detectors for Dark Matter search and neutrino phy…

A search for the analogue to Cherenkov radiation by high energy neutrinos at superluminal speeds in ICARUS

ICARUS Collaboration, M. Antonello, P. Aprili +62

The OPERA collaboration has claimed evidence of superluminal ν{_μ} propagation between CERN and the LNGS. Cohen and Glashow argued that such neutrinos should lose energy by produci…

Energy reconstruction of electromagnetic showers from decays with the ICARUS T600 Liquid Argon TPC

The ICARUS Collaboration, A. Ankowski

We discuss the ICARUS T600 detector capabilities in electromagnetic shower reconstruction through the analysis of a sample of 212 events, coming from the 2001 Pavia surface test ru…
