  1. 1. Pulse Amplitude Reconstruction in the LDMX Hadronic Calorimeter Readout

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik

    Author : Aksel Draguanov Mihaylov; [2023]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The universe shows signs of containing some invisible matter, known as dark matter. There are many possible constituents for dark matter, one such being light dark matter which would interact with ordinary matter through a new mediator force and have masses in the range of a few MeV to GeV.

  2. 2. The Commissioning of a Pixelated Charge-particle Detector : for High-sensitivity Measurements of Hydrogen

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad kärnfysik

    Author : Joacim Stenlund; Aram Himelius; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The Tandem Laboratory at Uppsala University, a national research infrastructure forworld-leading materials analysis, has a long history of performing hydrogen measurementusing NRA (Nuclear Reaction Analysis). This project intents to diversify the infras-tructure for hydrogen measurement by investigating the feasibility of an advanced ERCS(Elastic Recoil Coincidence Scattering) system, enabling finer detection limits.

  3. 3. Neutron backgrounds in neutrino-nucleus scattering at the European Spallation Source

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik

    Author : José Guilherme Rodrigues de Albuquerque Vale; [2023]
    Keywords : Neutrino-nucleus scattering; background; PHITS; weight window; ESS; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Being, when built, the most powerful neutron accelerator in the world, there will be a large number of potential discoveries at the European Spallation Source (ESS) in Lund. One of the most exciting of these, from a particle physics point of view, is the Coherent Elastic Neutrino-Nucleus Scattering (CEνNS). READ MORE

  4. 4. Improving polarizing neutron optics by introducing 11B4C as interlayers

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Tunnfilmsfysik

    Author : Martin Falk; [2023]
    Keywords : Thin film multilayers; Neutron optics; Neutron polarization;

    Abstract : In this report, the effects of adding 11B4C as interlayers into Fe/Si multilayers is studied. Fe/Si multilayers are commonly used for neutron polarization at large research facilities, and improving the polarizing properties would improve their efficiency. READ MORE

  5. 5. Data Reduction and Analysis with the MPRu instrument for Neutron Emission Spectroscopy at JET

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad kärnfysik

    Author : Steven Hendrik Bijl; [2023]
    Keywords : Fusion; JET; MPRu;

    Abstract : This research project centres on advancing data analysis techniques using the Magnetic Proton Recoil Upgrade Neutron Spectrometer (MPRu) for neutron emission spectroscopy during the deuterium tritium experimental campaign (DTE2) at the Joint European Torus (JET). The study aimed to address three pivotal questions, each with implications for optimizing data accuracy, quality, and utility. READ MORE
