Satellite-borne -ray astrophysics from coherent interactions in oriented crystals
Pietro Monti-Guarnieri, Gianfranco Paternò, Alexei Sytov +20
High-density and high-Z crystals are key elements of most space-borne -ray telescopes operating at gigaelectronvolt energies (such as Fermi-LAT). The lattice structure is usual…
Investigation of Radiation Emitted by Sub GeV Electrons in Oriented Scintillator Crystals
L. Bandiera, R. Camattari, N. Canale +12
The research investigates coherent interactions between sub-GeV electrons and oriented scintillator crystals, leading to enhanced electromagnetic (EM) radiation. Experiments at Mai…
Observation of Fine Structure in Channeling of Particles in Bent Crystals
A. Mazzolari, H. Backe, L. Bandiera +14
We observed highly efficient manipulation of the 530 MeV positron beam at Mainz Microtron via bent crystals. The low beam divergence revealed a fine structure in the angular distri…
Beam Steering and Radiation Generation of Electrons in Bent Crystals in the Sub-GeV Domain
R. Negrello, M. Romagnoni, A. Sytov +15
We present an investigation into beam steering and radiation emission by sub-GeV electrons traversing bent silicon crystals. Using 855, 600, and 300~MeV electron beams at the Mainz…
MuCol Milestone Report No. 7: Consolidated Parameters
Rebecca Taylor, Antoine Chancé, Dario Augusto Giove +459
This document is comprised of a collection of consolidated parameters for the key parts of the muon collider. These consolidated parameters follow on from the October 2024 Prelimin…
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…
