First direction sensitive search for dark matter with a nuclear emulsion detector at a surface site

Atsuhiro Umemoto, Tatsuhiro Naka, Takuya Shiraishi +8

Fine-grained nuclear emulsion films have been developed as a tracking detector with nanometric spatial resolution to be used in direction-sensitive dark matter searches, thanks to…

Directional Sensitivity of the NEWSdm Experiment to Cosmic Ray Boosted Dark Matter

N. Y. Agafonova, A. Alexandrov, A. M. Anokhina +54

We present a study of a directional search for Dark Matter boosted forward when scattered by cosmic-ray nuclei, using a module of the NEWSdm experiment. The boosted Dark Matter flu…

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…
