Commissioning of proANUBIS: A proof-of-concept detector for the ANUBIS experiment
Giulio Aielli, Oleg Brandt, Patrick Collins +12
Long-lived particles (LLPs), predicted by various extensions of the Standard Model (SM), have become a key focus of the contemporary search programme for physics beyond the SM. To…
Construction of proANUBIS: A proof-of-concept detector for the ANUBIS experiment
Giulio Aielli, Oleg Brandt, Jon Burr +10
The ANUBIS experiment aims to search for long-lived particles at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. To assess the feasibility of the project, a prototype detector, proANUBIS,…
Long-term operation of the screen-printed graphite-based resistive coatings on the HPL electrode for the Resistive Plate Chamber
Davide Costa, Francesco Fallavollita, Hubert Kroha +6
The reliability of large-area Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs) operated under High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) conditions is governed by the long-term stability and ra…
Resistive Plate Chamber Detector Construction and Certification: State-of-the-Art Facilities at the Max Planck Institute for Physics, in Partnership with Industrial Partners
Davide Costa, Francesco Fallavollita, Hubert Kroha +6
Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs) featuring 1 mm gas volumes combined with high-pressure phenolic laminate (HPL) electrodes provide excellent timing resolution down to a few hundred…
New Facilities for the Production of 1 mm gap Resistive Plate Chambers for the Upgrade of the ATLAS Muon Spectrometer
F. Fallavollita, O. Kortner, H. Kroha +5
The ATLAS Muon Spectrometer is undergoing a major upgrade for the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC), including the addition of three new thin-gap Resistive Plate Chamber (RPC) layers in…
