Title: Development of a new fast shower maximum detector based on
micro channel plates photomultipliers (MCP-PMT) as an active
element.
Abstract content
One possibility to make a fast and radiation resistant shower maximum (SM) detector is to use a secondary emitter as an active element. We present below test beam results, obtained with different types of the photo detectors based on micro channel plates (MCP) as the secondary emitter. The SM time resolution - we obtained for this new type of detector is at the level of 20-30 ps. We estimate that a significant contribution to the detector response originates from secondary emission of the MCP. This work can be considered as the first step in building a new type of calorimeter based on this principle..
Summary
We made measurements with different types of MCP PMT as shower maximum detector. The measurements were performed at the Fermilab Test Beam Facility with 120 GeV/c primary proton beam and 12 GeV/c and 32 GeV/c secondary beams. We obtained time resolution for the SM detector based on Photek 240 at the level of 20 – 30 ps. The SM detector, based on the Photonis MCP-PMT, also achieves a very good TR, ~35 ps. We feel that this level of performance, even with a large MCP pore size (diameter ~25 μm), enables the development of SM detectors for collider experiments at a potentially much reduced cost. The success of the LAPPD project [2, 4] in developing affordable MCP’s is encouraging in this respect. More savings are possible if it can be shown that bare MCP’s without an associated photocathode, can give similar timing performance. We plan on performing a future beam test that can resolve this issue.

Title: Design, construction and commissioning of a 15 kW CO2
evaporative cooling system for particle physics detectors: lessons
learnt and perspectives for further development
Abstract content
Since 2000, a few particle physics detectors have been using evaporative Carbon Dioxide (CO2) for their low temperature cooling systems, showing exceptional performances and stability in their full range of operation. The excellent physical, thermal and fluid dynamic properties of CO2, coupled to its radiation hardness, make it a very interesting option for the cooling systems of the next generation vertex and tracking detectors.
In order to match the requirements of the CMS Pixel Phase I upgrade, a 15 kW cooling system featuring evaporative CO2 has been designed, constructed and commissioned in 2013, as a full-scale prototype of the final system.
This paper describes the challenges during the design and construction phases, highlights the performance achieved during commissioning, and describes the optimisation of the design for the final system. Results of the performance tests, including stability of the temperature regulation while power cycling are illustrated as well.
An outlook on further scaling up is given in view of designs for higher cooling power, as needed for the next generation of tracking detectors for the LHC experiments.

Title: Development of Kinetic Inductance Detectors for a 3 mm camera
Abstract content
Millimetre-wave astronomical observations have an enormous discovery potential in the study of the earliest stages of the evolution of the universe, clusters of galaxies, high redshift objects, and star formation regions. One of the challenges today is to perform observations with the finest angular resolution, in order to accurately investigate the nature of these astrophysical sources. While for spectroscopic investigations of point-like sources ALMA is the obvious solution, for continuum measurements of diffuse sources large single-dish telescopes (e.g. GBT, TML, IRAM, SRT, etc.) equipped with large-format bolometeric cameras provide a much higher mapping speed.
Kinetic Inductance Detectors represent an interesting option for the detector array, due to their easiness to multiplex and their capability to efficiently tackle with atmospheric issues.
We are developing Aluminum Lumped Element KIDs for the 3 mm atmospheric window (W-band). While interesting performance of KIDs has already been demonstrated for the1 and 2 mm windows, further technological development is needed for their use at longer wavelengths. In this contribution we analyze the main issues of such a R&D (like minimum operation frequency, operation in high background conditions, size of the array etc.) and present the results of optical tests of the first devices. We also discuss their possible application in an imaging differential spectrometer for the Sardinia Radio Telescope, the largest Italian radio astronomy facility.

Title: Status of the CUORE and CUORE-0 experiments at Gran Sasso
Abstract content
CUORE is a 741 kg array of TeO2 bolometers for the search of neurinoless double beta decay in Te-130. The detector is being constructed at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso, Italy, where it will start taking data in 2015. If the target background of 0.01 counts/(keV kg y) will be reached, in five years of data taking CUORE will have an half life sensitivity of about 1026 y. CUORE-0 is a smaller experiment constructed to test and demonstrate the performances expected for CUORE. The detector is a single tower of 52 CUORE-like bolometers that started taking data in spring 2013. The status and perspectives of CUORE will be discussed, and the first CUORE-0 data will be presented.

Title: Exploiting Charge Multiplication in Silicon Detectors for the
HL-LHC
Abstract content
A number of measurements have recently reported a type of gain effect in silicon detectors for particle physics. This effect manifests itself in signal levels that significantly exceed expectations and in some cases even the signal charge generated by a passing MIP. The excess charge is seen in particular for heavily irradiated sensors operated at very high bias voltages. It is believed that this effect (termed “charge multiplication”) originates from a local avalanche effect in the high field regions of the sensor. The charge multiplication could potentially be very beneficial within the silicon tracking systems for LHC detector upgrades, as it could at least partially compensate the severe radiation-induced signal loss of the silicon sensors. In this context we have measured the collected charge for a set of miniature silicon strip sensors of various sensor designs, and after irradiation to HL-LHC fluences. One aim of the study was to identify detector parameters that would enhance the effect. In this way, one could design detectors optimized for charge multiplication.
Another aim was to evaluate the long-term evolution of the charge multiplication effect. This is intended to test operation under realistic LHC conditions, such as exposure to extreme bias voltages for many days, bias voltage cycling, and running at very low temperature.
In our presentation, we will report on the findings from our charge multiplication study, including the design parameters that we believe enhance the measured signal. In addition, will comment on the feasibility of exploiting the charge multiplication effect in the Phase-2 LHC tracking detector upgrades.

Title: Development of a continuous radon monitor
Abstract content
A continuous radon monitor with high sensitivity for radon based on electrostatic collection has been developed. Energy of alpha particle emission from 218Po and 214Po has been discriminated by alpha spectrometry, and an iterative correction factor has been applied to determine residual 218Po particle effect of one measurement on the next and second, then the actual counts of 218Po have been achieved.An automatic compensation method for detection efficiency of 218Po particle influenced by temperature and humidity was also introduced. The continuous radon monitor is able to trace the change of radon concentration quickly and accurately under different absolute humidity without drying tube. It is suitable for long-term continuous measurement of radon concentration in the environment of various temperatures and humidity without guarded.

Title: Characterization of the PANDA MVD Trapezoidal Silicon Strip
Sensors and Their First Operation in a Proton Beam
Abstract content
The $\overline{\text{P}}\text{ANDA}$-experiment will be one of the main
experiments inside the upcoming Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research
(FAIR) at the GSI in Darmstadt. The fixed target experiment will explore
$\overline{\text{p}}$p annihilation in the charm mass region with intense,
phase space cooled beams with momenta between 1.5 and 15 GeV/c.
The innermost subdetector of $\overline{\text{P}}\text{ANDA}$ will be
the Micro Vertex Detector (MVD) and consists of silicon strip and pixel
detectors.
The MVD can be further divided into two sub-structures. A
barrel-structure around the vertex and a
disc-structure in beam direction with six disks of different size.
The last two disks are hybrid disks with trapezoidal strip sensors in the outer layer surrounding a smaller
ring of pixel sensors in the inner part. The other disks are made only out of pixel detectors.
The first trapezoidal prototype sensors were produced by
CiS\footnote{Forschungsinstitut für Mikrosensorik und Photovoltaik GmbH}
and have a stereo angle of $15^{\circ}$ with 512 strips per sensor side
and a strip pitch of $67.5\,\mu\text{m}$.
In order to operate and test the prototype sensors, they were
chracterized with a probestation as well as with a dedicated testboard.
A first beam test was done at COSY\footnote{Cooler Synchrotron at
Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH} with protons of $2.95\,\text{GeV/c}$ and
$800\,\text{MeV/c}$ in December 2013 and January 2014.
In this talk the characterization of the trapezoidal strip sensors and
the results of their first operation
in a proton beam will be presented.

Title: Kinetic Inductance Detectors as light detectors for neutrino
and dark matter searches
Abstract content
Large-mass arrays of bolometers proved to be good detectors for Neutrinoless Beta Decay (0vDBD) and Dark Matter (DM) searches. The CUORE and LUCIFER 0vDBD experiments at Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso will start to take data in 2015. The potential of CUORE could be increased by removing the background due to alpha particles, by detecting the small amount of Cherenkov light (100 eV) emitted by the beta signal and not by alphas. LUCIFER could be extended to detect also Dark Matter, provided that the background from beta/gamma particles (100 eV of scintillation light) is discriminated from nuclear recoils of 10 keV energy (no light).
Our aim is to develop light detectors for CUORE, LUCIFER and similar bolometric experiments. In order to reach the high sensitivity and large number of pixels needed, we plan to use Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detectors, which have already shown impressive results in millimeter astronomy.
Since these devices are easily multiplexable and not strongly limited by the operation temperature, they possibly represent the best choice for the realisation of large-area phonon-mediated light detectors. Our aim is to monitor the whole face of each bolometer (about 25 cm2) at an operating temperature of 10 mK.
We will show a model of the expected sensitivity and discuss its agreement with the optical results of two different generations of devices, that have been illuminated with a 55Fe source and a light pulser.

Title: Radiation hardness and stability of optical coupling materials
for BelleII electromagnetic calorimeter
Abstract content
Optical coupling materials are usually applied to ensure good optical matching in the APD-scintillating crystal detection system. High transparency at the scintillating emission wavelength and material stability under irradiation are recommended requirements.
In this work, silicon optical grease (BC630) and two-component epoxy resins (Epo-tek 301-2FL and Epo-tek 305), to be employed in electromagnetic calorimeter of the BelleII experiment at the Super-KEKB collider, were investigated to establish their radiation hardness and stability under gamma and neutron irradiation. Optical transmittance measurements were performed in the UV-VIS range, paying particular attention to the materials behavior in the range around 315 nm (CsI scintillating emission wavelength).
