For many years, significant efforts at the LHC have been put towards measurements of production (anti)(hyper)nuclei in high-energy hadronic collisions. The ALICE experiment has contributed with pp, p–Pb, Xe–Xe, and Pb–Pb collisions, various center-of-mass energies. Recently, also LHCb measured nuclei both collider fixed-target modes. highlights recent experimental are discussed context models used to describe hadronization mechanism.
Abstract A microscopic understanding of (anti)deuteron production in hadron–hadron collisions is the subject many experimental and theoretical efforts nuclear physics. This topic also very relevant for astrophysics, since rare antinuclei our Universe could be a doorway to discover new In this work, we describe coalescence afterburner event generators based on Wigner function formalism apply it case, taking into account realistic particle emitting source. The model performance validated using...
The PADME experiment is designed to search for a hypothetical dark photon $A^{\prime}$ produced in positron-electron annihilation using bunched positron beam at the Beam Test Facility of INFN Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati. expected sensitivity $A^{\prime}$-photon mixing parameter $\epsilon$ 10$^{-3}$, mass $\le$ 23.5 MeV/$c^{2}$ after collecting $\sim 10^{13}$ positrons-on-target. This paper presents detector status commissioning July 2019. In addition, software algorithms employed...

Abstract The eruption of the Hunga-Tonga volcano in South Pacific Ocean on January 15, 2022, at about 4:15 UTC, generated a violent explosion, which created atmospheric pressure disturbances form Rayleigh-Lamb waves detected all over globe. Here we discuss observation shock-wave performed Ny-Ålesund Research Station Spitsbergen island, by detectors PolarquEEEst experiment and their ancillary sensors. Online data as well results dedicated offline analysis are presented discussed details....
The MEG experiment searches for the charged lepton flavor violating decay, μ +→ e+γ. has already determined world best upper limit on branching ratio BR<4.2× 10−13 at 90% CL. An upgrade of whole detector been approved to obtain a substantial increase in sensitivity. Currently is phases, this phase involves all detectors. new positron tracker single volume, full stereo, small cells drift chamber (DCH) co-axial beam line. It composed 10 concentric layers and each cell approximately square 7 mm...
This paper discusses the possibility to employ Multi-gap Resistive Plate Chambers (MRPC) of Extreme Energy Events (EEE) Project as muon tracking detectors monitor long term stability civil buildings and structures when used in conjunction with additional detectors, reconstruct average direction cosmic tracks passing through both devices any small variation over time acquisition periods. The performance such setup is discussed preliminary experimental coincidence results obtained a 40× 60 cm...
Abstract The sudden shift to distance forms of teaching experienced during the COVID-19 lockdown has brought light a large variety digital educational tools. In this paper we present real experience on how it is possible remotely teach basics Arduino microcontroller by means an online simulator.
The Extreme Energy Events (EEE) Project employs Multi-gap Resistive Plate Chambers (MRPCs) for studying the secondary cosmic ray muons in Extensive Air Showers. array consists of about 60 tracking detectors, sparse on Italian territory and at CERN. MRPCs are flowed with a gas mixture based C2H2F4 SF6, both which fluorinated greenhouse gases high environmental impact atmosphere. Due to restrictions imposed by European Union, these being phased out production their cost is largely increasing....
This paper describes the use of a set small cosmic ray detectors for measurement decoherence curve, i.e. probability observing coincidence events between pairs particles from an extensive air shower as function separation distance them. Individual detection modules were arranged into 15 telescopes located in various positions, such to cover nominal distances 0.5 and about 25 m with fine mesh. A curve has been carried out during period approximately 24 days at altitude close sea level, large...
