Ultra-broadband terahertz radiation by supercontinuum generation and optical rectification in a dispersion-engineered waveguide: a numerical study

Ileana-Cristina Benea-Chelmus, Aleksei Gaier

In this work, we propose a numerical approach based on forward coupled mode modeling to simultaneously evaluate second- and third-order nonlinearities inside a dispersion-engineered waveguide towards the goal of generating broadband terahertz (THz) radiati ...

X-ray qualification of hydrogenated amorphous silicon sensors on flexible substrate

Sylvain Dunand, Mikaël Martino, Nicolas Würsch, Luca Massimiliano Antognini, Matthew James Large

Hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) is a well known material for its radiation resistance and for the possibility of deposition on flexible substrates like Polyimide (PI), polyethylene terephthalate (PET) or polyethylene naphthalate (PEN). Due to the p ...

Down-conversion of a single photon as a probe of many-body localization

Cristiano Ciuti

Decay of a particle into more particles is a ubiquitous phenomenon to interacting quantum systems, taking place in colliders, nuclear reactors or solids. In a nonlinear medium, even a single photon would decay by down-converting (splitting) into lower-freq ...

HighNESS conceptual design report: Volume II. The NNBAR experiment

Mina Akhyani, Xiaoxue Han, Davide Campi, Sheng Xu

A key aim of the HighNESS project for the European Spallation Source is to enable cutting-edge particle physics experiments. This volume presents a conceptual design report for the NNBAR experiment. NNBAR would exploit a new cold lower moderator to make th ...

A full year of aerosol size distribution data from the central Arctic under an extreme positive Arctic Oscillation: insights from the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) expedition

Julia Schmale, Benjamin Jérémy Laurent Heutte, Jakob Boyd Pernov, Ivo Fabio Beck, Hélène Paule Angot, Lubna Dada, Federico Bianchi

The Arctic environment is rapidly changing due to accelerated warming in the region. The warming trend is driving a decline in sea ice extent, which thereby enhances feedback loops in the surface energy budget in the Arctic. Arctic aerosols play an importa ...

High concentration of black carbon in northern Pakistan: Characteristics, source apportionment and emission source regions

Arindam Roy

Atmospheric Black Carbon (BC) is one of the absorbing components of solar radiation which potentially affects human health and regional climate. In the current study, BC mass concentrations were regularly observed for pre-monsoon and monsoon seasons using ...

Microlens-enhanced silicon photomultiplier arrays for LHCb SciFi Tracker Upgrade Ib

Olivier Schneider, Guido Haefeli, Ettore Zaffaroni, Carina Trippl

A large-scale Scintillating Fibre Tracker has been developed and constructed for the current LHCb Upgrade 1. The high radiation by fast neutrons reduces the light yield of the detector in the course of LHC Run 3, and is challenging the tracker's hit detect ...

Nuclear Excitation by Free Muon Capture

Fabrizio Carbone, Ivan Madan, Simone Gargiulo

Efficient excitation of nuclei via exchange of a real or virtual photon has a fundamental importance for nuclear science and technology development. Here, we present a mechanism of nuclear excitation based on the capture of a free muon into the atomic orbi ...
