Reconstruction of 400 GeV/c proton interactions with the SHiP-charm project
SHiP Collaboration
The SHiP-charm project was proposed to measure the associated charm production induced by 400 GeV/c protons in a thick target, including the contribution from cascade production. A…
The AWAKE Run 2 programme and beyond
Edda Gschwendtner, Konstantin Lotov, Patric Muggli +99
Plasma wakefield acceleration is a promising technology to reduce the size of particle accelerators. Use of high energy protons to drive wakefields in plasma has been demonstrated…
Track reconstruction and matching between emulsion and silicon pixel detectors for the SHiP-charm experiment
SHiP Collaboration
In July 2018 an optimization run for the proposed charm cross section measurement for SHiP was performed at the CERN SPS. A heavy, moving target instrumented with nuclear emulsion…
Transition between Instability and Seeded Self-Modulation of a Relativistic Particle Bunch in Plasma
F. Batsch, P. Muggli, R. Agnello +94
We use a relativistic ionization front to provide various initial transverse wakefield amplitudes for the self-modulation of a long proton bunch in plasma. We show experimentally t…
SND@LHC
SHiP Collaboration, C. Ahdida, A. Akmete +341
We propose to build and operate a detector that, for the first time, will measure the process at the LHC and search for feebly interacting particles (FIPs) in an unexplor…
Measurement of the muon flux for the SHiP experiment
SHiP Collaboration
The SHiP experiment will search for very weakly interacting particles beyond the Standard Model which are produced in a 400 \GeV/ proton beam dump at the CERN SPS. About $10^{11…
SPS Beam Dump Facility -- Comprehensive Design Study
C. Ahdida, R. G. Alia, G. Arduini +45
The proposed Beam Dump Facility (BDF) is foreseen to be located at the North Area of the SPS. It is designed to be able to serve both beam dump like and fixed target experiments. T…
Sensitivity of the SHiP experiment to Heavy Neutral Leptons
SHiP Collaboration
Heavy Neutral Leptons (HNLs) are hypothetical particles predicted by many extensions of the Standard Model. These particles can, among other things, explain the origin of neutrino…
Experimental observation of proton bunch modulation in a plasma, at varying plasma densities
E. Adli, A. Ahuja, O. Apsimon +109
We give direct experimental evidence for the observation of the full transverse self-modulation of a relativistic proton bunch propagating through a dense plasma. The bunch exits t…
Experimental observation of plasma wakefield growth driven by the seeded self-modulation of a proton bunch
M. Turner, the AWAKE Collaboration
We measure the effects of transverse wakefields driven by a relativistic proton bunch in plasma with densities of and \unit[]{electrons/cm}…
