Measurement of the muon beam direction and muon flux for the T2K neutrino experiment
K. Suzuki, S. Aoki, A. Ariga +30
The Tokai-to-Kamioka (T2K) neutrino experiment measures neutrino oscillations by using an almost pure muon neutrino beam produced at the J-PARC accelerator facility. The T2K muon m…
Performance of cryogenic charge readout electronics with the ARGONTUBE LAr TPC
A. Ereditato, D. Goeldi, S. Janos +7
ARGONTUBE is a liquid argon time projection chamber (TPC) with an electron drift length of up to 5 m equipped with cryogenic charge-sensitive preamplifiers. In this work, we presen…
Measurement of the drift field in the ARGONTUBE LAr TPC with 266~nm pulsed laser beams
A. Ereditato, D. Goeldi, S. Janos +7
ARGONTUBE is a liquid argon time projection chamber (LAr TPC) with a drift field generated in-situ by a Greinacher voltage multiplier circuit. We present results on the measurement…
A method to suppress dielectric breakdowns in liquid argon ionization detectors for cathode to ground distances of several millimeters
M. Auger, A. Ereditato, D. Goeldi +7
We present a method to reach electric field intensity as high as 400 kV/cm in liquid argon for cathode-ground distances of several millimeters. This can be achieved by suppressing…
A steerable UV laser system for the calibration of liquid argon time projection chambers
A. Ereditato, I. Kreslo, M. Lüthi +5
A number of liquid argon time projection chambers (LAr TPC's) are being build or are proposed for neutrino experiments on long- and short baseline beams. For these detectors a dist…
Determination of the muon charge sign with the dipolar spectrometers of the OPERA experiment
OPERA Collaboration, N. Agafonova, A. Aleksandrov +141
The OPERA long-baseline neutrino-oscillation experiment has observed the direct appearance of in the CNGS beam. Two large muon magnetic spectrometers are used to identi…
Experimental study of electric breakdowns in liquid argon at centimeter scale
A. Blatter, A. Ereditato, C. -C. Hsu +8
In this paper we present results on measurements of the dielectric strength of liquid argon near its boiling point and cathode-anode distances in the range of 0.1 mm to 40 mm with…
NA61/SHINE facility at the CERN SPS: beams and detector system
N. Abgrall, O. Andreeva, A. Aduszkiewicz +145
NA61/SHINE (SPS Heavy Ion and Neutrino Experiment) is a multi-purpose experimental facility to study hadron production in hadron-proton, hadron-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus collisio…
