Solar axion searches with RES-NOVA: projected sensitivity and first prototype limit
D. Alloni, G. Benato, P. Carniti +49
RES-NOVA is a cryogenic experiment based on PbWO4 scintillating bolometers produced from archaeological lead, originally designed to detect coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scatte…
Probing large mass-splitting inelastic Dark Matter with RES-NOVA
D. Alloni, G. Benato, P. Carniti +46
Probing inelastic dark matter at large mass splittings requires heavy target nuclei, an extended recoil-energy range, and the high-velocity tail of the dark-matter distribution. We…
Neutrino NSI in archaeological Pb
D. Alloni, G. Benato, P. Carniti +47
Dark matter direct detection experiments can observe solar neutrinos via coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering, making it possible to test new physics in the neutrino sector…
Molecular effects in low-energy muon transfer from muonic hydrogen to oxygen
I. Boradjiev, A. Adamczak, D. Bakalov +24
In the present study we determine from the available experimental data the cross section of muon transfer to molecular oxygen at low energies with account of the oxygen molecule st…
Probing dark matter interactions with a RES-NOVA prototype cryogenic detector
D. Alloni, G. Benato, P. Carniti +44
We report on the operation of a 13 g PbWO crystal, grown from archaeological Pb and operated as a cryogenic calorimeter in an underground environment. Read out with a Ge thermi…
First operation of the FAMU experiment at the RIKEN-RAL high intensity muon beam facility
FAMU Collaboration, A. Adamczak, D. Bakalov +40
The FAMU experiment, supported and funded by the Italian Institute of Nuclear Physics (INFN) and by the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC), aims to perform the first…
