Studying atmospheric neutrino oscillations in the few-GeV range with a multi-megaton detector promises to determine mass hierarchy. This is main science goal pursued by future KM3NeT/ORCA water Cherenkov Mediterranean Sea. In this paper, processes that limit obtainable resolution both energy and direction charged-current events ORCA are investigated. These include composition of hadronic fragmentation products, subsequent particle propagation photon-sampling fraction detector. GEANT...
This work reports on the first attempt to prepare bioderived polymer films by blending polylactic acid (PLA) and poly(dodecylene furanoate) (PDoF). blend, containing 10 wt% PDoF, was filled with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) in variable weight fractions (from 0.25 2 phr), resulting nanocomposites were characterized assess their microstructural, thermal, mechanical, optical, electrical, gas barrier properties. The PLA/PDoF blend resulted as immiscible, addition of rGO, which preferentially...
The strength of obfuscated software has increased over the recent years. Compiler based obfuscation become de facto standard in industry and papers also show that injection techniques is done at compiler level. In this paper we discuss a generic approach for deobfuscation recompilation code on framework LLVM. We how binary can be lifted back into intermediate language LLVM-IR explain recover control flow graph an function with iterative construction algorithm optimizations satisfiability...
The KM3NeT research infrastructure, currently under construction in the Mediterranean Sea, will host neutrino telescopes for identification of sources Universe and studies mass hierarchy. These house hundreds thousands photomultiplier tubes that have to be operated a stable reliable fashion. In this context, stability dark counts has been investigated with negative high voltage on photocathode held insulating support structures made 3D printed nylon material. Small gaps between rigid...
In scintillation and dosimetry applications, the increasing interest on use of colloidal quantum dots (QDs) in comparison with organic fluorophores is mainly due to their easier chemical processability, narrower photoluminescence (PL) emission, higher cross-section for ionizing radiation. The development scintillators dosimeter based QDs, however, relies a deep understanding effects radiation QD structures. this paper, we present optical characterization cadmium-free InGaP/ZnS core–shell QDs...
This study explores the co-deposition of thin polymeric films loaded with nanoparticles for its possible future application as radiation detectors. Thin containing zinc oxide (ZnO) in plasma polymerized n-hexane (PPH) were deposited on silicon substrates using an atmospheric pressure jet (APPJ). Crystalline ZnO produced by wet chemistry, characterized, and injected through aerosol buffer. The precursor hydrocarbon was atmosphere at room temperature plasma, resulting a highly crosslinked...

Although the field of solar cells is most popular application perovskite materials, their use in radiation detection applications emerging. The success perovskites as detectors rests partly on same material properties that have led to successful optoelectronics applications, meaning other specific properties, like large stopping power, high mobility lifetime product, fast response, and bulk resistance, play a role. In this respect, inorganic are attracting lot attention scintillator...
The growing interest toward the development of high‐Z–sensitized organic scintillators is related with potential possibility to merge advantages materials those inorganics. In fact, plastic offer large‐area applications and fast response at a low cost, yet their performances for high‐energy photons charged particles are limited by poor stopping power low‐Z materials. real‐time optical investigation in terms steady‐state luminescence spectra polysiloxane/quantum dot (QD) nanocomposite samples...
Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) are demonstrated to be appealing semiconductors for optoelectronic applications, thanks their remarkable properties in the ultraviolet-visible spectral range. Interestingly, TMDCs have not yet been characterized when exposed x rays, although they would ideal candidates applications this They benefit from high cross section of constituent heavy atoms, while keeping absorption very low, due ultrathin structure film. This encourages...
KM3NeT-Italy is an INFN project that will develop the central part of a submarine cubic-kilometer neutrino telescope in Ionian Sea, at about 80 km from Sicilian coast (Italy). It use hundreds distributed optical modules to measure Cherenkov light emitted by high-energy muons, whose signal-to-noise ratio quite disfavoured.
