Cosmic ray abundance measurements with the CAKE balloon experiment
S. Cecchini, T. Chiarusi, G. Giacomelli +4
We present the results from the CAKE (Cosmic Abundance below Knee Energy) balloon experiment which uses nuclear track detectors. The final experiment goal is the determination of t…
Search for massive rare particles with the SLIM experiment
S. Balestra, S. Cecchini, F. Fabbri +18
The search for magnetic monopoles in the cosmic radiation remains one of the main aims of non-accelerator particle astrophysics. Experiments at high altitude allow lower mass thres…
Search for spontaneous muon emission from lead nuclei
L. Arrabito, D. Autiero, E. Barbuto +41
We describe a possible search for muonic radioactivity from lead nuclei using the base elements ("bricks" composed by lead and nuclear emulsion sheets) of the long-baseline OPERA n…
MACRO results on atmospheric neutrinos
G. Giacomelli, A. Margiotta
We discuss the final results of the MACRO experiment on atmospheric neutrino oscillations. The data concern event topologies with average neutrino energies of ~3 and ~50 GeV. Multi…
Search for Intermediate Mass Magnetic Monopoles and Nuclearites with the SLIM experiment
S. Cecchini, T. Chiarusi, D. Di Ferdinando +19
SLIM is a large area experiment (440 m2) installed at the Chacaltaya cosmic ray laboratory since 2001, and about 100 m2 at Koksil, Himalaya, since 2003. It is devoted to the search…
Calibration of the Makrofol Nuclear Track Detector using Relativistic Lead Ions
S. Cecchini, T. Chiarusi, M. Cozzi +12
We present the calibration of the Makrofol nuclear detector using Pb ions of 158 AGeV.
