We have measured the cross section of radiative process e+e- -> pi+pi-gamma with KLOE detector at Frascati phi-factory DAPHNE, from events taken a CM energy W=1 GeV. Initial state radiation allows us to obtain for pi+pi-, pion form factor |F_pi|^2 and dipion contribution muon magnetic moment anomaly, Delta a_mu^{pipi} = (478.5+-2.0_{stat}+-5.0_{syst}+-4.5_{th}) x 10^{-10} in range 0.1 < M_{pipi}^2 0.85 GeV^2, where theoretical error includes SU(3) ChPT estimate uncertainty on photon final...
The existence of a light dark force mediator has been tested with the KLOE detector at DAPHNE. This particle, called U, is searched for using decay chain phi-->etaU, eta-->pi+pi-pi0, U-->e+e-. No evidence found in 1.5 fb-1 data. resulting exclusion plot covers mass range 5
We have searched for a light vector boson U, the possible carrier of "dark force", with KLOE detector at DAΦNE e+e− collider, motivated by astrophysical evidence presence dark matter in Universe. Using collisions collected an integrated luminosity 239.3 pb−1, we look dimuon mass peak reaction e+e−→μ+μ−γ, corresponding to decay U→μ+μ−. find no U signal. set 90% CL upper limit mixing parameter squared between photon and 1.6×10−5 8.6×10−7 region 520<mU<980 MeV.
Neutral kaon pairs produced in phi decays anti-symmetric entangled state can be exploited to search for violation of CPT symmetry and Lorentz invariance. We present an analysis the CP-violating process phi->K_S K_L->pi+pi-pi+pi- based on 1.7 fb-1 data collected by KLOE experiment at Frascati phi-factory DAFNE.

On the wake of results obtained so far at SPARC_LAB test-facility Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati (Italy), we are currently investigating possibility to design and build a new multi-disciplinary user-facility, equipped with soft X-ray Free Electron Laser (FEL) driven by ∼1 GeV high brightness linac based on plasma accelerator modules. This study is performed in synergy EuPRAXIA study. In this paper report about recent progresses going facility.
Abstract CompactLight is a Design Study funded by the European Union under Horizon 2020 research and innovation funding programme, with Grant Agreement No. 777431. was conducted an International Collaboration of 23 international laboratories academic institutions, three private companies, five third parties. The project, which started in January 2018 duration 48 months, aimed to design innovative, compact, cost-effective hard X-ray FEL facility complemented soft source pave road for future...
We study the possibility of producing x-gamma rays with orbital angular momentum by means inverse Compton backscattering between a high brightness electron beam and twisted laser pulse. use classical electrodynamics retarded fields for evaluating radiation connecting it to that primary then propose dimensioning linearly polarized x-ray source momentum, starting from parameters operating Thomson setups.
The breakthrough provided by plasma-based accelerators enabled unprecedented accelerating fields boosting electron beams to gigaelectronvolt energies within a few centimeters [1-4]. This, in turn, allows the realization of ultracompact light sources based on free-electron lasers (FELs) [5], as demonstrated two pioneering experiments that reported observation self-amplified spontaneous emission (SASE) driven plasma-accelerated [6,7]. However, lack stability and reproducibility due intrinsic...
