Performance of the front-end electronics of the CMS electromagnetic calorimeter barrel for the High-Luminosity LHC
The CMS Electromagnetic Calorimeter Group
The performance of the CMS electromagnetic calorimeter upgraded readout electronics, developed for the High-Luminosity phase of the LHC, is discussed. Data collected in two beam te…
Studies of Hadronic Showers in SND@LHC
LHC Collaboration
The SND@LHC experiment was built for observing neutrinos arising from LHC pp collisions. The detector consists of two sections: a target instrumented with SciFi modules and a hadro…
Search for solar axions produced through the axion-electron coupling using a new GridPix detector at CAST
K. Altenmüller, V. Anastassopoulos, S. Arguedas-Cuendis +61
We present a search for solar axions produced through the axion-electron coupling using data from a novel 7-GridPix detector installed at the CERN Axion Solar Telescope…
Daily modulations and broadband strategy in axion searches. An application with CAST-CAPP detector
F. Caspers, C. M. Adair, K. Altenmüller +60
It has been previously advocated that the presence of the daily and annual modulations of the axion flux on the Earth's surface may dramatically change the strategy of the axion se…
The CMS Barrel Timing Layer: test beam confirmation of module timing performance
F. Addesa, P. Akrap, A. Albert +127
First of its kind, the barrel section of the MIP Timing Detector is a large area timing detector based on LYSO:Ce crystals and SiPMs which are required to operate in an unprecedent…
A new upper limit on the axion-photon coupling with an extended CAST run with a Xe-based Micromegas detector
CAST Collaboration, K. Altenmüller, V. Anastassopoulos +62
Hypothetical axions provide a compelling explanation for dark matter and could be emitted from the hot solar interior. The CERN Axion Solar Telescope (CAST) has been searching for…
