Liquid argon time projection chambers (TPC) are widely used in neutrino oscillation and dark matter experiments. Detection of scintillation light liquid TPC's is challenging because its short wavelength, the VUV range, cryogenic temperatures (~86 K) at which sensors must operate. Wavelength shifters (WLS) typically needed to take advantage high Photon Efficiency (PDE) visible range most photondetectors. The Hamamatsu VUV4 S13370--6075CN SiPMs can directly detect without use WLS, main benefit...
SBND is the near detector of Short-Baseline Neutrino program at Fermilab. Its location to Booster Beam source and relatively large mass will allow study neutrino interactions on argon with unprecedented statistics. This paper describes expected performance photon detection system, using a simulated sample beam neutrinos cosmogenic particles. design dual readout concept combining system 120 photomultiplier tubes, used for triggering, 192 X-ARAPUCA devices, located behind anode wire planes....
Abstract The DUNE far detector has been designed to detect photons and electrons generated by the charged products of interaction neutrinos with a massive liquid argon (LAr) target. photon detection system (PDS) first (FD1) is composed 6000 units, named X-ARAPUCA . prompt light pulse particle energy release in LAr will complement boost Time Projection Chamber. It improve non-beam events tagging enable at low energies trigger calorimetry supernova neutrinos. an assembly several components....
The LHCb collaboration has recently reported the largest CP violation effect from a single amplitude, as well other giant asymmetries in several B-meson decays into three charmless light mesons. It is also claimed that this predominantly due to ππ→KK[over ¯] rescattering final state, particularly 1 1.5 GeV region. In these analyses amplitude by default estimated ππ elastic scattering and does not describe existing data. Here we show how recent model-independent dispersive analysis of data...
This paper describes a procedure for the validation of alpha-particle sources (exempt unsealed sources) to be used in experimental setups with liquefied gases at cryogenic temperatures (down -196 °C) and high vacuum. These are interest development characterization neutrino dark matter detectors based on liquid argon, among others. Due purity requirements, have withstand vacuum extended periods. The has been applied 241Am produced by electrodeposition.

We present a search for long-lived particles (LLPs) produced from kaon decay that to two muons inside the ICARUS neutrino detector. This channel would be signal of hidden sector models can address outstanding issues in particle physics such as strong CP problem and microphysical origin dark matter. The is performed with data collected Neutrinos at Main Injector (NuMI) beam Fermilab corresponding $2.41\times 10^{20}$ protons-on-target. No new observed, we set world-leading limits on heavy QCD...
The Short-Baseline Near Detector (SBND) is one of three Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber (LArTPC) neutrino detectors positioned along the axis Booster Neutrino Beam (BNB) at Fermilab, as part (SBN) Program. detector currently being commissioned and expected to take data this year. SBND characterized by superb imaging capabilities will record over a million interactions per Thanks its unique combination measurement resolution statistics, carry out rich program interaction measurements...
The LHCb collaboration has recently reported the largest CP violation effect from a single amplitude, as well other giant asymmetries in several $B$-meson decays into three charmless light mesons. It is also claimed that this predominantly due to $ππ\rightarrow K\bar K$ rescattering final state, particularly 1 1.5 GeV region. In these analyses amplitude by default estimated $ππ$ elastic scattering and does not describe existing data. Here we show how recent model-independent dispersive...
