Design and Performance of a 96-channel Resistive PICOSEC Micromegas Detector for ENUBET
A. Kallitsopoulou, S. Aune, Y. Angelis +54
The PICOSEC-Micromegas (PICOSEC-MM) detector is a fast gaseous detector that achieves picosecond-level timing by coupling a Cherenkov radiator, typically an MgF2 crystal, to a Micr…
Spatial resolution studies with the BabyIAXO Micromegas prototype
A. Quintana, J. Castel, S. Cebrián +20
The spatial resolution of the Micromegas prototype developed for the BabyIAXO experiment was evaluated using a low-energy X-ray beam at the SOLEIL synchrotron facility. BabyIAXO, c…
The International Axion Observatory (IAXO): case, status and plans. Input to the European Strategy for Particle Physics
A. Arcusa, S. Ahyoune, K. Altenmuller +120
The International Axion Observatory (IAXO) is a next-generation axion helioscope designed to search for solar axions with unprecedented sensitivity. IAXO holds a unique position in…
An accurate solar axions ray-tracing response of BabyIAXO
S. Ahyoune, K. Altenmueller, I. Antolin +124
BabyIAXO is the intermediate stage of the International Axion Observatory (IAXO) to be hosted at DESY. Its primary goal is the detection of solar axions following the axion heliosc…
Background discrimination with a Micromegas detector prototype and veto system for BabyIAXO
K. Altenmüller, J. F. Castel, S. Cebrián +22
In this paper we present measurements performed with a Micromegas X-ray detector setup. The detector is a prototype in the context of the BabyIAXO helioscope, which is under constr…
