Determination of the muon charge sign with the dipolar spectrometers of the OPERA experiment
OPERA Collaboration, N. Agafonova, A. Aleksandrov +141
The OPERA long-baseline neutrino-oscillation experiment has observed the direct appearance of in the CNGS beam. Two large muon magnetic spectrometers are used to identi…
Momentum measurement by the Multiple Coulomb Scattering method in the OPERA lead emulsion target
The OPERA Collaboration
A new method of momentum measurement of charged particles through Multiple Coulomb Scattering (MCS) in the OPERA lead emulsion target is presented. It is based on precise measureme…
Emulsion sheet doublets as interface trackers for the OPERA experiment
A. Ariga
New methods for efficient and unambiguous interconnection between electronic counters and target units based on nuclear photographic emulsion films have been developed. The applica…
Track reconstruction in the emulsion-lead target of the OPERA experiment using the ESS microscope
L. Arrabito, C. Bozza, S. Buontempo +44
The OPERA experiment, designed to conclusively prove the existence of oscillations in the atmospheric sector, makes use of a massive lead-nuclear emulsion target t…
Hardware performance of a scanning system for high speed analysis of nuclear emulsions
L. Arrabito, E. Barbuto, C. Bozza +45
The use of nuclear emulsions in very large physics experiments is now possible thanks to the recent improvements in the industrial production of emulsions and to the development of…
