Large underground, liquid based detectors for astro-particle physics in Europe: scientific case and prospects
D. Autiero, J. Aysto, A. Badertscher +68
This document reports on a series of experimental and theoretical studies conducted to assess the astro-particle physics potential of three future large-scale particle detectors pr…
Absolute measurement of the nitrogen fluorescence yield in air between 300 and 430 nm
G. Lefeuvre, P. Gorodetzky, J. Dolbeau +2
The nitrogen fluorescence induced in air is used to detect ultra-high energy cosmic rays and to measure their energy. The precise knowledge of the absolute fluorescence yield is th…
MEMPHYS:A large scale water Cerenkov detector at Fréjus
A. de Bellefon, J. Bouchez, J. Busto +12
A water Čerenkov detector project, of megaton scale, to be installed in the Fréjus underground site and dedicated to nucleon decay, neutrinos from supernovae, solar and atmospheric…
Progress on a spherical TPC for low energy neutrino detection
S Aune, P Colas, H Deschamps +18
The new concept of the spherical TPC aims at relatively large target masses with low threshold and background, keeping an extremely simple and robust operation. Such a device would…
UV Light Shower Simulator for Fluorescence and Cerenkov Radiation Studies
P. Gorodetzky, J. Dolbeau, T. Patzak +2
All experiments observing showers light use telescopes equipped with pixellised photodetectors. Monte-Carlo (MC) simulations of the apparatus operation in various situations (backg…
NOSTOS experiment and new trends in rare event detection
I. Giomataris, S. Aune, P. Colas +9
A novel low-energy neutrino-oscillation experiment NOSTOS, combining a strong tritium source and a high pressure spherical TPC detector (10 m in radius) has been recently proposed.…
