Volume reduction of water samples to increase sensitivity for radioassay of lead contamination
A. Aguilar-Arevalo, C. Canet, M. A. Cruz-Pérez +17
The World Health Organisation (WHO) presents an upper limit for lead in drinking water of 10 parts per billion ppb. Typically, to reach this level of sensitivity, expensive metrolo…
A High Pressure Time Projection Chamber with Optical Readout
Alexander Deisting, Abigail Victoria Waldron, Edward Atkin +33
Measurements of proton-nucleus scattering and high resolution neutrino-nucleus interaction imaging are key to reduce neutrino oscillation systematic uncertainties in future experim…
The upgrade of the ALICE TPC with GEMs and continuous readout
J. Adolfsson, M. Ahmed, S. Aiola +232
The upgrade of the ALICE TPC will allow the experiment to cope with the high interaction rates foreseen for the forthcoming Run 3 and Run 4 at the CERN LHC. In this article, we des…
Off-Axis Characterisation of the CERN T10 Beam for low Momentum Proton Measurements with a High Pressure Gas Time Projection Chamber
S. B. Jones, T. S. Nonnenmacher, E. Atkin +33
We present studies of proton fluxes in the T10 beamline at CERN. A prototype high pressure gas time projection chamber (TPC) was exposed to the beam of protons and other particles,…
Towards a low cost lead assay technique for drinking water using CMOS sensors
Alexander Deisting
An estimated 26 million people in low- and middle-income countries are at risk of lead exposure and there is no safe threshold for lead ingestion. Radio assay methods are not easil…
Secondary discharge studies in single and multi GEM structures
A. Deisting, C. Garabatos, P. Gasik +12
Secondary discharges, which consist of the breakdown of a gap near a GEM foil upon a primary discharge across that GEM, are studied in this work. Their main characteristics are the…
