From Simulation to Fabrication: Realizing Silicon Crystalline Undulators with Silicon Nitride Stressor Layer Patterning
L. Malagutti, L. Bandiera, F. Bonafè +14
A crystalline undulator is a crystal exhibiting periodic deformations that cause channeled particles to oscillate, generating coherent electromagnetic waves. In this study, stresso…
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…
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…
A high-performance custom photodetection system to probe the light yield enhancement in oriented crystals
M. Soldani, L. Bandiera, L. Bomben +16
Scintillating homogeneous detectors represent the state of the art in electromagnetic calorimetry. Moreover, the currently neglected crystalline nature of the most common inorganic…
Crystal-based pair production for a lepton collider positron source
L. Bandiera, L. Bomben, R. Camattari +18
An intense positron sources is a demanding element in the design of future lepton colliders. A crystal-based hybrid positron source could be an alternative to a more conventional s…
Strong enhancement of electromagnetic shower development induced by high-energy photons in a thick oriented tungsten crystal
M. Soldani, L. Bandiera, M. Moulson +24
We have observed a significant enhancement in the energy deposition by -- photons in a thick tungsten crystal oriented along its $\langle 111…
Experimental evidence of independence of nuclear de-channeling length on the particle charge sign
E. Bagli, V. Guidi, A. Mazzolari +7
Under coherent interactions, particles undergo correlated collisions with the crystal lattice and their motion result in confinement in the fields of atomic planes, i.e. particle c…
Relaxation of axially confined 400 GeV/c protons to planar channeling in a bent crystal
L. Bandiera, A. Mazzolari, E. Bagli +10
An investigation on the mechanism of relaxation of axially confined 400 GeV/c protons to planar channeling in a bent crystal was carried out at the extracted line H8 from CERN Supe…
Extended point defects in crystalline materials: Ge and Si
Nick E. B. Cowern, Sergei Simdyankin, Chihak Ahn +10
B diffusion measurements are used to probe the basic nature of self-interstitial 'point' defects in Ge. We find two distinct self-interstitial forms - a simple one with low entropy…
The UA9 experimental layout
W. Scandale, G. Arduini, R. Assmann +58
The UA9 experimental equipment was installed in the CERN-SPS in March '09 with the aim of investigating crystal assisted collimation in coasting mode. Its basic layout comprises si…
