Passive Inter-Photon Imaging
Atul Ingle, Trevor Seets, Mauro Buttafava +4
Digital camera pixels measure image intensities by converting incident light energy into an analog electrical current, and then digitizing it into a fixed-width binary representati…
Protective Measurement -- a new quantum measurement paradigm: detailed description of the first realisation
Enrico Rebufello, Fabrizio Piacentini, Alessio Avella +9
We present a detailed description of the experiment realising for the first time a protective measurement, a novel measurement protocol which combines weak interactions with a ``pr…
Real-time Non-line-of-Sight imaging of dynamic scenes
Ji Hyun Nam, Eric Brandt, Sebastian Bauer +3
Non-Line-of-Sight (NLOS) imaging aims at recovering the 3D geometry of objects that are hidden from the direct line of sight. In the past, this method has suffered from the weak av…
SiPM-matrix readout of two-phase argon detectors using electroluminescence in the visible and near infrared range
The DarkSide collaboration, C. E. Aalseth, S. Abdelhakim +312
Proportional electroluminescence (EL) in noble gases is used in two-phase detectors for dark matter searches to record (in the gas phase) the ionization signal induced by particle…
