Beam Test Characterization of Silicon Microstrip Detector Flight-Model Ladders for the AMS-02 Upgrade
Dexing Miao, Giovanni Ambrosi, Mattia Barbanera +56
The AMS-02 experiment plans to install a new silicon microstrip tracker layer (Layer-0) on top of the existing detector, increasing the cosmic-ray acceptance by a factor of 3. Laye…
A Telescope System for Charge and Position Measurement of High Energy Nuclei
Dexing Miao, Zhiyu Xiang, Giovanni Ambrosi +43
A high-granularity telescope system with a large sensitive area and low material budget has been developed for high-energy heavy ion beam tests. The telescope consists of nine laye…
Precision cross-sections for advancing cosmic-ray physics and other applications: a comprehensive programme for the next decade
D. Maurin, L. Audouin, E. Berti +32
Cosmic-ray physics in the GeV-to-TeV energy range has entered a precision era thanks to recent data from space-based experiments. However, the poor knowledge of nuclear reactions,…
Performance assessment of the HERD calorimeter with a photo-diode read-out system for high-energy electron beams
O. Adriani, G. Ambrosi, M. Antonelli +63
The measurement of cosmic rays at energies exceeding 100 TeV per nucleon is crucial for enhancing the understanding of high-energy particle propagation and acceleration models in t…
