Cosmic Ray Spatial Distribution and the Galactic/Extragalactic Transition
Paolo Lipari, Silvia Vernetto
Determining the spatial distribution of Galactic cosmic rays (CRs) is fundamental to understand how these particles propagate in interstellar space and to infer their source spectr…
Characterization of a GAGG detector for neutron measurements in underground laboratories
Lorenzo Ascenzo, Giovanni Benato, Yingjie Chu +3
In rare events experiments, such as those devoted to the direct search of dark matter, a precise knowledge of the environmental gamma and neutron backgrounds is crucial for reachin…
The spectral shapes of Galactic gamma-ray source
Paolo Lipari, Silvia Vernetto
Recent observations by ground-based gamma-ray telescopes have led to the publication of catalogs listing sources observed in the TeV and PeV energy ranges. Photons of such high ene…
Resolved and unresolved Galactic gamma-ray sources
Paolo Lipari, Silvia Vernetto
The Galactic gamma-ray flux can be described as the sum of two components: the first is due to the emission from an ensemble of discrete sources, and the second is formed by the ph…
Performance of the LABDOS01 spectrometer in dosimetric measurements
Silvia Vernetto, Carlo Francesco Vigorito, Martin Kakona +6
This paper describes the performance of the LABDOS01, a silicon diode-based spectrometer suitable for dose measurements in mixed radiation fields. The instrument is currently being…
