The SND@LHC neutron shielding
LHC Collaboration
The design and construction of a neutron shielding for the SND@LHC detector, which utilizes a combination of plexiglass and borated polyethylene, is presented. FLUKA simulations we…
Studies of Hadronic Showers in SND@LHC
LHC Collaboration
The SND@LHC experiment was built for observing neutrinos arising from LHC pp collisions. The detector consists of two sections: a target instrumented with SciFi modules and a hadro…
Environmental sub-MeV neutron measurement at the Gran Sasso surface laboratory with a super-fine-grained nuclear emulsion detector
T. Shiraishi, S. Akamatsu, T. Naka +8
The measurement of environmental neutrons is particularly important in the search for new physics, such as dark matter particles, because neutrons constitute an often-irreducible b…
Track reconstruction and matching between emulsion and silicon pixel detectors for the SHiP-charm experiment
SHiP Collaboration
In July 2018 an optimization run for the proposed charm cross section measurement for SHiP was performed at the CERN SPS. A heavy, moving target instrumented with nuclear emulsion…
The SHiP experiment at the proposed CERN SPS Beam Dump Facility
SHIP Collaboration
The Search for Hidden Particles (SHiP) Collaboration has proposed a general-purpose experimental facility operating in beam-dump mode at the CERN SPS accelerator to search for ligh…
Implementation and Optimization of the PTOLEMY Transverse Drift Electromagnetic Filter
A. Apponi, M. G. Betti, M. Borghesi +53
The PTOLEMY transverse drift filter is a new concept to enable precision analysis of the energy spectrum of electrons near the tritium beta-decay endpoint. This paper details the i…
