NA62 is a fixed-target experiment at the CERN SPS dedicated to measurements of rare kaon decays. Such measurements, like branching fraction K+ → π+ ν decay, have potential bring significant insights into new physics processes when comparison made with precise theoretical predictions. For this purpose, innovative techniques been developed, in particular, domain low-mass tracking devices. Detector construction spanned several years from 2009 2014. The collaboration started detector...

The OLYMPUS Collaboration reports on a precision measurement of the positron-proton to electron-proton elastic cross section ratio, R_{2γ}, direct measure contribution hard two-photon exchange section. In measurement, 2.01 GeV electron and positron beams were directed through hydrogen gas target internal DORIS storage ring at DESY. A toroidal magnetic spectrometer instrumented with drift chambers time-of-flight scintillators detected elastically scattered leptons in coincidence recoiling...

Performance of triple GEM prototypes in strong magnetic field has been evaluated by means a muon beam at the H4 line SPS test area CERN. Data have reconstructed and analyzed offline with two reconstruction methods: charge centroid micro-Time-Projection-Chamber exploiting time measurement respectively. Depending on combination particle incident angle filed, there's always one algorithms achieving spatial resolution 100–120 μm.

Collisions provided by a TeV-scale beam at the LHC on fixed target will explore unique kinematic region that has been poorly probed until now. Furthermore, advanced detectors make available probes have never accessed before. The LHCb spectrometer possesses capability to function as fixed-target experiment injecting gas into beampipe while proton or ion beams are circulating. resulting beam-gas collisions cover an unexplored energy range above of previous experiments but below energies RHIC...
