Detection of low-energy X-rays with 1/2 and 1 inch LaBr3:Ce crystals read by SIPM arrays
M. Bonesini, R. Bertoni, R. Benocci +6
LaBr3:Ce crystals, with photomultiplier or single SiPM readout (up to 3x3 mm) have been introduced for radiation imaging in medical physics. An R&D was pursued with 1/2" and 1"…
A new model with Serpent for the first criticality benchmarks of the TRIGA Mark II reactor
Christian Castagna, Davide Chiesa, Antonio Cammi +7
We present a new model, developed with the Serpent Monte Carlo code, for neutronics simulation of the TRIGA Mark II reactor of Pavia (Italy). The complete 3D geometry of the reacto…
30Si Mole Fraction of a Silicon Material Highly Enriched in 28Si Determined by Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis
Giancarlo D'Agostino, Marco Di Luzio, Giovanni Mana +3
The latest determination of the Avogadro constant, carried out by counting the atoms in a pure silicon crystal highly enriched in 28Si, reached the target 2x10-8 relative uncertain…
Fuel burnup analysis of the TRIGA Mark II Reactor at the University of Pavia
Davide Chiesa, Massimiliano Clemenza, Stefano Pozzi +10
A time evolution model was developed to study fuel burnup for the TRIGA Mark II reactor at the University of Pavia. The results were used to predict the effects of a complete core…
Characterization of the TRIGA Mark II reactor full-power steady state
Antonio Cammi, Matteo Zanetti, Davide Chiesa +7
In this work, the characterization of the full-power steady state of the TRIGA Mark II nuclear reactor of the University of Pavia is performed by coupling Monte Carlo (MC) simulati…
Underground operation of the ICARUS T600 LAr-TPC: first results
C. Rubbia, M. Antonello, P. Aprili +74
Open questions are still present in fundamental Physics and Cosmology, like the nature of Dark Matter, the matter-antimatter asymmetry and the validity of the particle interaction…
