Results of the Search for Strange Quark Matter and Q-balls with the SLIM Experiment
S. Cecchini, M. Cozzi, D. Di Ferdinando +23
The SLIM experiment at the Chacaltaya high altitude laboratory was sensitive to nuclearites and Q-balls, which could be present in the cosmic radiation as possible Dark Matter comp…
Magnetic Monopole Search at high altitude with the SLIM experiment
S. Balestra, S. Cecchini, M. Cozzi +23
The SLIM experiment was a large array of nuclear track detectors located at the Chacaltaya high altitude Laboratory (5230 m a.s.l.). The detector was in particular sensitive to Int…
Bulk Etch Rate Measurements and Calibrations of Plastic Nuclear Track Detectors
S. Balestra, M. Cozzi, G. Giacomelli +15
New calibrations of CR39 and Makrofol nuclear track detectors have been obtained using 158 A GeV Pb (82+) and In (49+) ions; a new method for the bulk etch rate determination, usin…
Search for possible solar neutrino radiative decays during total solar eclipses
S. Cecchini, D. Centomo, G. Giacomelli +2
Total solar eclipses (TSEs) offer a good opportunity to look for photons produced in possible radiative decays of solar neutrinos. In this paper we briefly review the physics bases…
Rare Particle Searches with the high altitude SLIM experiment
S. Balestra, S. Cecchini, F. Fabbri +20
The search for rare particles in the cosmic radiation remains one of the main aims of non-accelerator particle astrophysics. Experiments at high altitude allow lower mass threshold…
Search for possible neutrino radiative decays during the 2001 total solar eclipse
S. Cecchini, D. Centomo, G. Giacomelli +4
We present the results of the observations performed in the occasion of the June 21, 2001 total solar eclipse, looking for visible photons emitted trough a possible radiative decay…
