Operation and readout of the CGEM Inner Tracker
Ilaria Balossino
A recently approved ten-year extension of the BESIII experiment (IHEP, Beijing) motivated an upgrade program for both the accelerator and the detector. In particular, the current i…
MPGDs for tracking and Muon detection at future high energy physics colliders
K. Black, A. Colaleo, C. Aimè +61
In the next years, the energy and intensity frontiers of the experimental Particle Physics will be pushed forward with the upgrade of existing accelerators (LHC at CERN) and the en…
uRANIA-V: an innovative solution for neutron detection in homeland security
R. Farinelli, I. Balossino, G. Bencivenni +19
Detection of neutrons is becoming of the utmost importance, especially in the studies of radioactive waste and in homeland security applications. The crisis of 3He availability has…
The CGEM-IT readout chain
A. Amoroso, R. Baldini Ferroli, I. Balossino +44
An innovative Cylindrical Gas Electron Multiplier (CGEM) detector is under construction for the upgrade of the inner tracker of the BESIII experiment. A novel system has been worke…
Investigation and improvements of the mechanical structure of Cylindrical GEMs for the BESIII experiment
Ilaria Balossino
Gas Electron Multipliers (GEMs) can be produced in large foils and molded in different shapes. The possibility to create cylindrical layers has opened the opportunity to use such d…

In the framework of the ATTRACT-uRANIA project, funded by the European Community, we are developing an innovative neutron imaging detector based on micro-Resistive WELL ( -RWELL…
PARSIFAL: a toolkit for triple-GEM parametrized simulation
A. Amoroso, R. Baldini Ferroli, I. Balossino +38
PARSIFAL (PARametrized SImulation by Farinelli And Lavezzi) is a fast and reliable software tool that reproduces the complete response of a triple-GEM detector to the passage of a…
Preliminary results from the cosmic data taking of the BESIII cylindrical GEM detectors
R. Farinelli
BESIII is a multipurpose spectrometer optimized for physics in the tau-charm energy region. Both detector and accelerator are undergoing an upgrade program, that will allow BESIII…
Time performance of a triple-GEM detector at high rate
A. Amoroso, R. Baldini Ferroli, I. Balossino +45
Gaseous detectors are used in high energy physics as trackers or, more generally, as devices for the measurement of the particle position. For this reason, they must provide high s…
Machine Learning approach to boosting neutral particles identification in the LHCb calorimeter
Alexey Boldyrev, Viktoria Chekalina, Fedor Ratnikov
We present a new approach to identification of boosted neutral particles using Electromagnetic Calorimeter (ECAL) of the LHCb detector. The identification of photons and neutral pi…
