A new high-power laser facility will be realised in Italy at the INFN-LNS laboratories with the main goal of producing radiation (protons, electrons, neutrons, gamma) for applications and basic science studies. The facility will also possess a distinctive feature (almost unique in the world) allowing for the concurrent utilization of accelerated ion beams (4 - 70 AMeV in energy) from...
The thorium-229 nucleus contains an low-lying isomeric state, making it accessible to laser excitation. It is good candidate for the development of a nuclear clock [Peik and Tamm, EPL 61, 181 (2003)] which will enable testing fundamental principles in physics and practical applications (see e.g. [Thirolf,- J. Phys. B 52, 203001 (2019)]). The radiative decay of the thorium-229 isomer was...
Rare kaon decays are among the most sensitive probes of both heavy and light new physics beyond the Standard Model description thanks to high precision of the Standard Model predictions, availability of very large datasets, and the relatively simple decay topologies. The NA62 experiment at CERN is a multi-purpose high-intensity kaon decay experiment, and carries out a broad rare-decay and...
The cylindrical-RWELL (C-RWELL) is a low material budget (O(1%) X0) cylindrical Inner Tracker based on the µ-RWELL technology. The µ-RWELL is a resistive MPGD composed of two PCBs: a mono-layer PCB acting as the cathode, defining the gas detector gap, and a µ-RWELL_PCB that couples in an unique structure the electron amplification (a well-patterned GEM-like matrix) and the readout stage. The...
