    Super-Kamiokande (Super-K) is a neutrino detector located in Japan used to study neutrinos from different sources (atmospheric, solar, supernovae and accelerator). Its research program includes search for proton decay and measurement of neutrino oscillations among others. It contains ~11,000 20 inches photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) surrounding a massive tank filled with 50 ktonne of ultra-pure...

    The ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN is in the process of upgrading its silicon charged-particle tracker as part of the Inner Tracker (ITk) upgrade, in parallel with the LHC’s own High-Luminosity upgrade (HL-LHC). With ten times the radiation dose expected at the HL-LHC as compared to LHC, the silicon technology used in the ITk must demonstrate an excellent radiation...

    A test-bench is created that injects digital pulses that emulate ATLAS Liquid Argon (LAr) Front End Board electronic signal pulses in order to test prototypes. The prototypes are for new electronics for an upgrade to the CERN Large Hadron Collider that increases the rate of proton-proton collisions by an order of magnitude. This High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider requires a completely new...

    The Light-only Liquid Xenon (LoLX) project aims to study the properties of light emission and transport in liquid xenon (LXe) using silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs). By investigating scintillation and Chernekov emission in LXe, LoLX will develop Cherenkov-scintillation separation with SiPMs as a background discrimination technique for low-background LXe experiments, e.g. searches for...
