Demonstration of particle tracking with scintillating fibres read out by a SPAD array sensor and application as a neutrino active target

Kodai Kaneyasu, Edoardo Charbon, Claudio Bruschini, Paul Mos, Michael Alan Wayne

Scintillating fibre detectors combine sub-mm resolution particle tracking, precise measurements of the particle stopping power and sub-ns time resolution. Typically, fibres are read out with silicon photomultipliers (SiPM). Hence, if fibres with a few hund ...

Hydrodynamical simulations of merging galaxy clusters: giant dark matter particle colliders, powered by gravity

David Richard Harvey

Terrestrial particle accelerators collide charged particles, then watch the trajectory of outgoing debris - but they cannot manipulate dark matter. Fortunately, dark matter is the main component of galaxy clusters, which are continuously pulled together by ...

Neutrino Signal from a Population of Seyfert Galaxies

Andrii Neronov

IceCube Collaboration has previously reported evidence for a neutrino signal from a Seyfert galaxy NGC 1068. This may suggest that all Seyfert galaxies emit neutrinos. To test this hypothesis, we identify the best candidate neutrino sources among nearby Se ...
