  1. 21. Develop Radiation Hard Beam Monitor and Muon Spectroscopy by using Machine Learning for Intense Neutrino Target System
    Katsuya Yonehara (Fermilab)
    12/8/19, 3:30 PM
    Diverse Detectors
    Talk
    Fermilab hosts the world's most powerful neutrino beam facility, Neutrinos at the Main Injector (NuMI) and the future Long Baseline Neutrino Facility (LBNF) at Fermilab, which will be even more powerful. The sensitivities of the long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiments that use these beams require precise alignment and monitoring of the beam in a high radiation environment over long...

  2. 51. Physics with Precision Time Structure in On Axis Neutrino Beams
    Evan Angelico (University of Chicago)
    12/8/19, 3:47 PM
    Diverse Detectors
    Talk
    We propose to use a higher-frequency RF bunch structure for the primary proton beam on target and precision timing to select different energy and flavor spectra from a wide-band neutrino beam, based on the relative arrival times of the neutrinos with respect to the RF bunch structure. This `stroboscopic' approach is an alternative to techniques that select different neutrino energy...

  3. 28. Results from ACE: picosecond timing planes for future collider detectors
    Prof. Peter Gorham (High Energy Physics Group, UH Manoa), Mr Remy Prechelt (High Energy Physics Group, UH Manoa)
    12/8/19, 4:04 PM
    Diverse Detectors
    Talk
    We report results from the Askaryan Calorimeter Experiment (ACE), which uses coherent microwave Cherenkov emission from showers passing through Alumina dielectric-loaded waveguides to provide timing fiducials of 2-3 ps per detector element. The "calorimeter" part of ACE is a historical misnomer, since it has a relatively high shower threshold of several hundred GeV. However, in the forward...

  4. 89. Artificially Structured Materials for HEP Detector Applications
    Klaus Dehmelt (Stony Brook University)
    12/8/19, 4:21 PM
    Diverse Detectors
    Talk
    Artificially structured materials, also called meta-materials are composite media that can emerge with unusual electromagnetic properties. Owing to Transformation Optics (TO) a wide spectrum of electromagnetic devices with extraordinary pre-designed functions enters the stage. As the development of meta-materials progresses, many of novel electromagnetic devices designed with TO have been...

  5. 17. The Snowball Chamber: Using Supercooled Water for Discovering Sub-GeV Dark Matter
    M. Carmen Carmona-Benitez (Pennsylvania State University)
    12/8/19, 4:38 PM
    Diverse Detectors
    Talk
    The identification of dark matter is presently one of the greatest challenges in science, fundamental to our understanding of the Universe. In this talk we will present the latest developments in the search for low-mass dark matter with the Snowball chamber. This chamber uses supercooled water as the target, employing an exotic phase transition of metastable water in a similar fashion to a...

  6. 4. Results and update from the ABRACADABRA search for sub-$\mu$eV axion dark matter
    Reyco Henning (UNC)
    12/8/19, 4:55 PM
    Diverse Detectors
    Talk
    ABRACADABRA is an experiment that searches for axion dark matter (ADM) in the $10^{-14} - 10^{-6}\mathrm{eV}/c^2$ mass range. In ABRACADABRA, ADM couples to the static magnetic field of a toroidal magnet. This coupling induces a small, oscillating magnetic flux in the center of the torus that can be measured by a pickup loop connected to a SQUID current sensor. Both broadband and resonant...

  7. 8. Fermini: A Fermilab Search for Minicharged Particles and Strongly Interacting Dark Matter
    Dr Yu-Dai Tsai (Fermilab)
    12/8/19, 5:12 PM
    Diverse Detectors
    Talk
    We propose a low-cost and movable setup to probe minicharged particles (or milli-charged particles) using high-intensity proton fixed-target facilities. This proposal, FerMINI, consists of a milliQan-type detector, requiring multi-coincident (nominally, triple-coincident) scintillation signatures within a small time window, located downstream of the proton target of a neutrino experiment....

  8. 104. Novel Designs For Few-Photon Detection Based on Quantum and Nanoscale Systems
    Dr Francois Leonard (Sandia National Laboratories)
    12/8/19, 5:29 PM
    Photodetectors
    Talk
    Detecting light from the single to the few photon level is important for many applications in science, including quantum key distribution, high-resolution lidar, biology, and high-energy physics. In the past decades, exquisite performance has been reached for new types of photodetectors, including superconducting nanowires, avalanche photodiodes, and those harnessing CMOS technology. Still...

  9. 118. Effects of energy accumulation in materials: Self-Organized Criticality dynamics in quantum and superconducting detectors.

    Diverse Detectors
    Poster
    Abstract. In materials used for quantum and superconducting detectors several classes of objects demonstrate glass-like behavior at low temperatures. These are non-equilibrium configurations of surface and interfacial charges, magnetic moments of impurities, nuclear dipole magnetic and quadrupole electric moments, quantized vortexes, etc. Electromagnetic signals applied to device and leaking...
