Emulsion sheet doublets as interface trackers for the OPERA experiment
A. Ariga
New methods for efficient and unambiguous interconnection between electronic counters and target units based on nuclear photographic emulsion films have been developed. The applica…
Track reconstruction in the emulsion-lead target of the OPERA experiment using the ESS microscope
L. Arrabito, C. Bozza, S. Buontempo +44
The OPERA experiment, designed to conclusively prove the existence of oscillations in the atmospheric sector, makes use of a massive lead-nuclear emulsion target t…
Electron/pion separation with an Emulsion Cloud Chamber by using a Neural Network
L. Arrabito, D. Autiero, C. Bozza +46
We have studied the performance of a new algorithm for electron/pion separation in an Emulsion Cloud Chamber (ECC) made of lead and nuclear emulsion films. The software for separat…
Hardware performance of a scanning system for high speed analysis of nuclear emulsions
L. Arrabito, E. Barbuto, C. Bozza +45
The use of nuclear emulsions in very large physics experiments is now possible thanks to the recent improvements in the industrial production of emulsions and to the development of…
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…
