Radiation hardness qualification of PbWO4 scintillation crystals for the CMS Electromagnetic Calorimeter

The CMS Electromagnetic Calorimeter Group, P. Adzic, N. Almeida +267

Ensuring the radiation hardness of PbWO4 crystals was one of the main priorities during the construction of the electromagnetic calorimeter of the CMS experiment at CERN. The produ…

PWO crystals for CMS electromagnetic calorimeter : studies of the radiation damage kinetics

G. Drobychev, E. Auffray, V. Dormenev +6

Kinetics of radiation damage of the PWO crystals under irradiation and recovery were studied. Crystals were irradiated with dose corresponding to average one expected in the electr…

A new experiment to search for the invisible decay of the orthopositronium

A. Badertscher, P. Crivelli, W. Fetscher +4

We propose an experiment to search for invisible decays of orthopositronium (o-Ps) with a 90% confidence sensitivity in the branching ratio as low as . Evidence for this d…

An apparatus to search for mirror dark matter via the invisible decay of orthopositronium in vacuum

A. Badertscher, A. Belov, P. Crivelli +9

Mirror matter is a possible dark matter candidate. It is predicted to exist if parity is an unbroken symmetry of the vacuum. The existence of the mirror matter, which in addition t…

Search for an exotic three-body decay of orthopositronium

A. Badertscher, P. Crivelli, M. Felcini +7

We report on a direct search for a three-body decay of the orthopositronium into a photon and two penetrating particles, o-Ps -> gamma + X1 + X2. The existence of this decay could…

A search for charmonium states produced in central pp interactions at 450 GeV/c

The WA102 Collaboration, D. Barberis

A search for centrally produced charmonium states has been presented. There is no significant evidence for any charmonium production. An upper limit of 2 nb is found for the cross…
