R&D on a high-performance electromagnetic calorimeter based on oriented crystalline scintillators
M. Soldani, N. Argiolas, L. Bandiera +36
Although inorganic scintillators are widely used in the design of electromagnetic calorimeters for high-energy physics and astrophysics, their crystalline nature and, hence, their…
Strong Enhancement of Electromagnetic Shower Development in Oriented Scintillating Crystals and Implications for Particle Detectors
Mattia Soldani, Pietro Monti-Guarnieri, Alessia Selmi +31
A particle traversing a crystal aligned with one of its crystallographic axes experiences a strong electromagnetic field that is constant along the direction of motion over macrosc…
A high-performance custom photodetection system to probe the light yield enhancement in oriented crystals
M. Soldani, L. Bandiera, L. Bomben +16
Scintillating homogeneous detectors represent the state of the art in electromagnetic calorimetry. Moreover, the currently neglected crystalline nature of the most common inorganic…
Crystal-based pair production for a lepton collider positron source
L. Bandiera, L. Bomben, R. Camattari +18
An intense positron sources is a demanding element in the design of future lepton colliders. A crystal-based hybrid positron source could be an alternative to a more conventional s…
A Portable Cosmic Ray Detector for School Education
Luca Bomben, Stefano Capelli, Chiara Fanzini +7
This article describes the design, assembly and characterization of a portable cosmic ray detector, developed by the INSULAB group and suitable for teaching activities aimed at hig…
A study of muon-electron elastic scattering in a test beam
Giovanni Abbiendi, Giovanni Ballerini, Dipanwita Banerjee +22
In 2018, a test run with muons in the North Area at CERN was performed, running parasitically downstream of the COMPASS spectrometer. The aim of the test was to investigate the ela…
