It is crucial for verifying ATF2’s Goal 1 of focusing σy* down to 37 nm in order to verify a final focus system of linear colliders featuring the Local Chromaticity Correction scheme. The e- beam collides with a target of laser interference fringes, and σy* is derived from the modulation depth of the resulting Compton signal photons measured by a downstream gamma detector. Shintake Monitor is the only existing device capable of measuring σy* as small as 25 nm, and can accommodates a wide range of σy* from 20 nm to a few μm with better than 10% accuracy by switching between several laser crossing angle modes. Major hardware upgrades contributed to suppressing errors and the demonstration of measurement stability of 5 - 10%. In 2013, continuous measurement of the smallest ever σy* of below 65 nm has been achieved. Analysis of systematic errors indicates the possibility that smaller beam sizes have been achieved. This paper describes the monitor’s design concepts and performance, and an extensive study of errors with the aim of high precision in measuring the even smaller σy* anticipated to be achieved at ATF2 in near future.

An MKID is a type of superconducting detectors. Cooper-pair breaking caused by deposited energy changes the kinetic inductance of the superconductor. Consisting of LC resonators formed by a thin superconducting metal layer, it detects the energy by sensing the change of the inductance. By using the MKIDs we can readout the detectors with frequency-domain multiplexing. Since the bound energy of Cooper-pairs is order of milli-electron volt and the detectors are operated at low temperature of less than 1K, MKIDs have high energy resolutions and low noise levels. The highly sensitive detectors can be applied to measurements that require the detection of very week signals, for instance dark matter search. We are developing MKIDs that are formed with the combination of two metal layers of Al and Nb. By using two superconducting metal layers, we can confine the quasi-particles in a certain region due to the difference of the energy gaps and expect an increase of the sensitivity. We have developed Nb/Al MKIDs for the detections of photons and phonons. For the former, we aim to apply the MKIDs to a He scintillation detector for a search of light dark matter with liquid He TPC. The latter would be applied not only to the dark matter search but also to X-ray detections with the high energy resolution and a high acceptance for future material science.

Each PHOS module accommodates 112 Front-end Electronics (FEEs), which are divided into 4 readout partitions. Each FEE consists of 32 sets of high gain and low gain signal channels. In LHC RUN1, pedestal runs and LED runs dedicated to test the performance of the PHOS FEEs were performed. The evaluations are taken in the aspects of the pedestals, the peaking time of the shapers, and the gain ratios of the high gain channels to their corresponding low gain channels. In this paper, both their short-term and long-term performance will be covered. The PHOS event size, which is referred as the size of the data recorded by all the PHOS FEEs for single event, should be stable in all the physics runs of the same type. Hence, it could be used to monitor the noisy and dead channels in PHOS FEEs. The PHOS event size observed in Pb-Pb collisions, p-Pb collisions, p-p collisions and pedestal runs will be presented in this paper. In addition, the working status of the PHOS FEEs which the event size revealed will also be discussed. The performance demonstrates that the PHOS FEEs fulfilled the requirements of physics data reconstruction and was working as what we expected during the last four years.

This sensor is utilized for observing phase-modulated laser in an interferometer of gravitational wave (GW) detectors. The GW detectors are well sophisticated apparatus that need accurate position controls for mirrors. The laser modulation/demodulation is used for readout of the mirror displacement in such accurate control. Laser sideband signals created by phase modulation become very important not only for the control but also sensitivity of detector because the quality of controls affect a noise level. We are preparing this phase camera for VIRGO, which is a GW detector placed in Pisa. The sideband signals in power recycling cavity are easily degraded by mirror aberrations in VIRGO. In order to correct such mirror aberrations, CO2 laser and compensation plates will be prepared, and then, our phase camera will be used to see mirror aberrations through the state of sidebands. Hence, this phase camera can contribute to VIRGO for making high performance controls.

In order to establish and maintain a high constant activity concentration of thoron progenies easily, the compensation system based on air circulation between a cylindrical chamber with 212Pb activity concentration over 10000 Bq.m-3 and the thoron reference chamber has been developed.The stable concentration of 212Pb in the cylindrical chamber depend on a constant solid 220Rn source and certain aerosol concentration level ranging from 1000 per cubic centimeter to 10000per cubic centimeter. Then dynamic balance of thoron progenies between the growth from the cylindrical chamber and the losses due to plate-out, decay and sampling in the thoron reference chamber has been established. A air flow of 20L•min-1 simulate sampling of calibrated instruments to eliminate concentration fluctuations caused by that in the thoron reference chamber. By this method 212Pb with wide various activity concentration ranging from 60 Bq•m-3 to 3000 Bq•m-3 are produced under different compensation and stimulation flow, and an overall uncertainty of less than 5% in the reference chamber. When concentration of thoron progenies changed from one level to another, it takes about ten hours to establishing new radioactive equilibrium.

In this app\-li\-cation of particle physics detectors standard HEP techniques encounter new challenges.\\ \indent The REGARD group of Wigner RCP (Budapest) has deve\-lop\-ed a portable muon telescope for outdoor measurements with sensitive area of 0.1 m$^2$ and weight of 15 kg~\cite{1,2,3}. The designed detector is based on the novel Close Cathode Chambers~\cite{4,5} which provide a cheap, easy handling, lightweight, high efficiency detector system, able to work even at harsh conditions. The total power consumption of the complete detector system (with HV and DAQ modules including) is less than 5 W.\\ \indent The two dimensional angular distribution of atmospheric muons have been measured at ground and shallow depth underground (10-50 meters). The multiple scattering of muons in rock has been investigated experimentally and by GEANT4 simulations. The contamination of the track sample with soft component of cosmic radiation (electron and gamma) has been estimated. The applicability of the detector as a muon tomograph has been demonstrated via reconstruction of an existing underground tunnel system. \begin{thebibliography}{9} \bibitem{1} G. G.

A time projection chamber of 2.4 l with a novel configuration formed by two symmetric drift regions with two microbulk-Micromegas readouts is used to measure the recombination of $\alpha$- and $\gamma$-particles, which are emitted in coincidence by an $^{241}$Am source. A gas mixture of 98\%Xe+2\%TMA is used, varying the pressure from 2 to 10 bar, and the reduced drift field within 10-400 V/cm/bar range. Both $\alpha$- and $\gamma$-particles exhibit recombination as the electric drift field decreases, being stronger for $\alpha$- particles. This is partially explained by columnar recombination due to the dependency observed with the track angle (relative to the direction of electric drift field). The comparison of the data with the theoretical models for recombination will be shown and discussed. These results support a suggestion that has been recently put forward on how to obtain a directional signal in the recoils induced by Dark Matter interactions with xenon-gas. In fact, there are already efforts trying to pursue directionality but with very low masses.

The ALICE collaboration plans a major upgrade of the detector during the Long Shutdown 2 (LS2) of the LHC, which is at present foreseen to start in summer 2018. The upgrade strategy is based on collecting > 10 nb$^{-1}$ of Pb-Pb collisions at luminosities up to L = 6 x $10^{27}$ cm$^{-2}$s$^{-1}$ corresponding to a collision rate of 50 kHz, where each collision is shipped to the online systems, either upon a minimum bias trigger or in a self-triggered or continuous fashion. Since the TPC drift time of 100 $\mu$s is 5 times longer than the average time between interactions, the presently employed gating of the TPC wire chambers must be abandoned. Instead, continuously sensitive readout detectors based on Gas Electron Multipliers (GEMs) will be implemented. Furthermore, the present silicon tracker will be replaced by a new design entirely based on monolithic pixel chips in order to achieve significantly increased secondary vertex resolution and high tracking efficiency. Other ALICE sub-detectors are upgraded to read out Pb-Pb data at 50 kHz with nominal performance. Highly efficient triggering will be ensured by a new interaction trigger detector. A new online system will be implemented that is capable of receiving and processing the full detector information. We will present the planned ALICE upgrade concept together with a description of the individual detector upgrade plans.
