Time variations in the deep underground muon flux measured by MACRO
Y. Becherini, S. Cecchini, M. Cozzi +15
More than 30 million of high-energy muons collected with the MACRO detector at the underground Gran Sasso Laboratory have been used to search for flux variations of different natur…
Study of Large Hemispherical Photomultiplier Tubes for the ANTARES Neutrino Telescope
The ANTARES Collaboration
The ANTARES neutrino telescope, to be immersed depth in the Mediterranean Sea, will consist of a 3 dimensional matrix of 900 large area photomultiplier tubes housed in pressure res…
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 nuclearites with the SLIM detector
S. Balestra, S. Cecchini, G. Giacomelli +8
We discuss the properties of cosmic ray nuclearites, from the point of view of their search with large nuclear track detector arrays exposed at different altitudes, in particular w…
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…
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…
