The electron-positron collider DAPhiNE, the Italian Phi factory, has been recently upgraded in order to implement an innovative collision scheme based on large crossing angle, small beam sizes at point, and compensation of beam-beam interaction by means sextupole pairs creating a "crab-waist" configuration region. Experimental tests novel exhibited increase factor 3 peak luminosity with respect performances reached before upgrade. In this Letter we present new scheme, discuss its advantages,...

A bstract Heavy Neutral Leptons (HNLs) are hypothetical particles predicted by many extensions of the Standard Model. These can, among other things, explain origin neutrino masses, generate observed matter-antimatter asymmetry in Universe and provide a dark matter candidate. The SHiP experiment will be able to search for HNLs produced decays heavy mesons travelling distances ranging between $$ \mathcal{O} <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:mi>O</mml:mi>...
