  1. 1. Measuring the vertical muon intensity with the ALTO prototype at Linnaeus University

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för fysik och elektroteknik (IFE)

    Author : Magnus Norén; [2021]
    Keywords : Muon Intensity; ALTO; CoMET; Cosmic Rays; VHE Gamma Rays; Extensive Air Shower; Water Cherenkov Detector; Scintillation Detector; Monte Carlo Simulation; GEANT4;

    Abstract : ALTO is a project, currently in the research and development phase, with the goal of constructing a Very High Energy (VHE) gamma-ray observatory in the southern hemisphere. It will detect the particle content reaching the ground from the interactions of either VHE gamma rays or cosmic rays in the atmosphere known as extensive air showers. READ MORE

  3. 2. ALTO Timing Calibration : Calibration of the ALTO detector array based on cosmic-ray simulations

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för fysik och elektroteknik (IFE)

    Author : Sotirios-Ilias Tsivras; [2019]
    Keywords : ALTO; Cosmic-Rays; Water Cherenkov Detector; Python;

    Abstract : This thesis describes a timing calibration method for the detector array of the ALTO experiment. ALTO is a project currently at the prototype phase that aims to build a gamma-ray astronomical observatory at high-altitude in the Southern hemisphere. READ MORE

  4. 3. Near detector simulation studies for CP violation discovery with ESSnuSB

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : In-Pyo Yeo; [2019]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The neutrino oscillation experiment ESSnuSB aims to measure the CP violation phase in the lepton sector with an intense neutrino beam produced at ESS. If the CP violation is discovered, then the matter-antimatter asymmetry of the Universe can be possibly explained. READ MORE

  5. 4. A Neutrino Detector Design

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Alexander Burgman; [2015]
    Keywords : neutrino; neutrinos; oscillation; CP violation; muon; electron; ESSnuSB; ESS; Cherenkov; detector; near detector; simulation; reconstruction; identification; particle; partikelfysik; thesis; master s; master; Burgman; Alexander; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Abstract Today, the neutrino oscillation is very well established by experiment. It is described by a theoretical framework similar to that of quark mixing. Here is included a CP violating phase, delta_CP, which is the only known possible source of CP violation in the lepton sector. READ MORE
