Abstract The aim of the presented work is development single-stage amplification resistive Micro Pattern Gas Detectors (MPGD) based on Micromegas technology with following characteristics: ability to efficiently operate up 10 MHz/cm 2 counting rate; scalability large areas; fine granularity readout small pads order mm ; good spatial and time resolutions (below 100 um ns, respectively). miniaturization elements optimization spark protection system, as well stability robustness under...
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
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. The are used perform a measurement CPT-violating parameters Delta_amu neutral kaons contest Standard Model Extension framework. measured reference frame fixed stars are: Delta_ao =...
It has been realized for a long time that knowing the eta and eta^prime wave functions in terms of quark gluon components probes our understanding non-perturbative QCD dynamics. Great effort given to this challenge -- yet no clear picture emerged even with most recent KLOE data. We point out which measurements would be helpful arriving at more definite conclusion. A better knowledge these will significantly help disentangle weight different decay subprocesses semi-leptonic decays D+, Ds^+ B+...
Escape rooms have gained significant popularity in recent years, offering a blend of puzzle-solving and treasure hunt-like challenges, making them an enjoyable activity for the participants team-building experience. More importantly, they provide unique engaging way to introduce new topics, which can be effectively leveraged science outreach. In 2021, team from INFN developed HEPScape, escape room centered on high-energy physics. Participants are immersed simulation Large Hadron Collider at...
We have studied the phi->a_0(980) gamma process with KLOE detector at Frascati phi-factory DAPhNE by detecting phi->eta pi^0 decays in final states eta->gamma and eta->pi^+ pi^- pi^0. measured branching ratios for both states: Br(phi->eta gamma)=(7.01 +/- 0.10 0.20)x10^-5 (7.12 0.13 0.22)x10^-5 respectively. also extracted a_0(980) mass its couplings to eta pi^0, K^+ K^-, phi meson from fit of invariant distributions using different phenomenological models.
