Toward High-Resolution Detection of Target Fragmentation: TEA-Sensitized NIT for Proton Therapy Applications

V. Boccia, T. Asada, A. Alexandrov +96

Nano Imaging Trackers (NIT) are fine-grained nuclear emulsions capable of tracking charged particles with sub-micrometric spatial resolution. The DAMON (Direct Measurement of Targe…

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…

SND@LHC

SHiP Collaboration, C. Ahdida, A. Akmete +341

We propose to build and operate a detector that, for the first time, will measure the process at the LHC and search for feebly interacting particles (FIPs) in an unexplor…

Measurement of the muon flux for the SHiP experiment

SHiP Collaboration

The SHiP experiment will search for very weakly interacting particles beyond the Standard Model which are produced in a 400 \GeV/ proton beam dump at the CERN SPS. About $10^{11…

The active muon shield in the SHiP experiment

SHiP collaboration, A. Akmete, A. Alexandrov +229

The SHiP experiment is designed to search for very weakly interacting particles beyond the Standard Model which are produced in a 400 GeV/c proton beam dump at the CERN SPS. An ess…

Readout technologies for directional WIMP Dark Matter detection

J. B. R. Battat, I. G. Irastorza, A. Aleksandrov +90

The measurement of the direction of WIMP-induced nuclear recoils is a compelling but technologically challenging strategy to provide an unambiguous signature of the detection of Ga…
