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…
Design and early operation of a new-generation internal beam dump for CERN's Super Proton Synchrotron
A. Romero Francia, A. Perillo Marcone, S. Pianese +22
The Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) is the last stage in the injector chain for CERN's Large Hadron Collider, and it also provides proton and ion beams for several fixed-target expe…
Challenges and Lessons Learned from fabrication, testing and analysis of eight MQXFA Low Beta Quadrupole magnets for HL-LHC
G. Ambrosio, K. Amm, M. Anerella +55
By the end of October 2022, the US HL-LHC Accelerator Upgrade Project (AUP) had completed fabrication of ten MQXFA magnets and tested eight of them. The MQXFA magnets are the low b…
A Metallurgical Inspection Method to Assess the Damage in Performance-Limiting Nb3Sn Accelerator Magnet Coils
Alice Moros, Mickael Denis Crouvizier, Ignacio Aviles Santillana +12
The design and production of Nb3Sn-based dipole and quadrupole magnets is critical for the realization of the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) at the European Organiz…
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…
The SHiP experiment at the proposed CERN SPS Beam Dump Facility
SHIP Collaboration
The Search for Hidden Particles (SHiP) Collaboration has proposed a general-purpose experimental facility operating in beam-dump mode at the CERN SPS accelerator to search for ligh…
Vacuum for accelerators: introduction to materials and properties
Stefano Sgobba
In modern accelerators, stringent requirements are placed on the materials used for vacuum systems. Their physical and mechanical properties, machinability, weldability and brazeab…
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…
Design of a high power production target for the Beam Dump Facility at CERN
E. Lopez Sola, M. Calviani, P. Avigni +16
The Beam Dump Facility (BDF) project is a proposed general-purpose facility at CERN, dedicated to beam dump and fixed target experiments. In its initial phase, the facility is fore…
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…
A facility to Search for Hidden Particles (SHiP) at the CERN SPS
SHiP Collaboration, M. Anelli, S. Aoki +233
A new general purpose fixed target facility is proposed at the CERN SPS accelerator which is aimed at exploring the domain of hidden particles and make measurements with tau neutri…
Physics and measurements of magnetic materials
S. Sgobba
Magnetic materials, both hard and soft, are used extensively in several components of particle accelerators. Magnetically soft iron-nickel alloys are used as shields for the vacuum…
