The $A'$, called dark photon, could be generated in the reaction $ e^- Z \to e^- Z A'$ of 100 GeV electrons dumped against an active target which is followed by the prompt invisible decay $A' \to 蠂\overline蠂$. The experimental signature of this process would be an event with an isolated electron and large missing energy in the detector. From the analysis of the data sample collected in 2016 corresponding to $4.3\times10^{10}$ electrons on target no evidence of such a process has been found. New stringent constraints on the $A'$ mixing strength with photons, $10^{-5}\lesssim 蔚\lesssim 10^{-2}$, for the $A'$ mass range $m_{A'} \lesssim 1$ GeV are derived. For models considering scalar and fermionic thermal Dark Matter interacting with the visible sector through the vector portal the 90% C.L. limits $10^{-11}\lesssim y \lesssim 10^{-6}$ on the dark-matter parameter $y = 蔚^2 伪_D (\frac{m_蠂}{m_{A'}})^4 $ are obtained for the dark coupling constant $伪_D = 0.5$ and dark-matter masses $0.001 \lesssim m_蠂\lesssim 0.5 $ GeV. The lower limits $伪_D \gtrsim 10^{-3} $ for pseudo-Dirac Dark Matter in the mass region $m_蠂\lesssim 0.05 $ GeV are more stringent than the corresponding bounds from beam dump experiments. The results are obtained by using tree level, exact calculations of the $A'$ production cross-sections, which turn out to be significantly smaller compared to the one obtained in the Weizs盲cker-Williams approximation for the mass region $m_{A'} \gtrsim 0.1$ GeV. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1710.00971v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1710.00971v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 22 March, 2018; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 2 October, 2017; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> October 2017. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">22 pages, 17 figures, version accepted for publication in PRD</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Phys.

So far, all studies with multiplexed Micromegas have only been reported for tests with radioactive sources and cosmic rays. The use of multiplexed modules in high intensity environments was not explored due to the effect of ambiguities in the reconstruction of the hit point caused by the multiplexing feature. At the beam intensities analysed in this work and with a multiplexing factor of 5, more than 50% level of ambiguity is introduced. Our results prove that by using the additional information of cluster size and integrated charge from the signal clusters induced on the XY strips, the ambiguities can be reduced to a level below 2%. The tested detectors are used in the CERN NA64 experiment for tracking the incoming particles bending in a magnetic field in order to reconstruct their momentum. The average hit detection efficiency of each module was found to be $\sim$ 96% at the highest beam intensities. By using four modules a tracking resolution of 1.1% was obtained with $\sim$ 85% combined tracking efficiency. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1708.04087v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1708.04087v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 14 August, 2017; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> August 2017. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1703.05993">arXiv:1703.05993</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1703.05993">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1703.05993">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Instrumentation and Detectors">physics.ins-det</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="High Energy Physics - Experiment">hep-ex</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nima.2017.05.028">10.1016/j.nima.2017.05.028 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> High purity 100 GeV electron identification with synchrotron radiation </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/hep-ex?searchtype=author&query=Depero%2C+E">E.

In this paper we present a technique to reject heavy charged particle contamination in the 100 GeV electron beam of the H4 beam line at CERN SPS. The method is based on the detection with BGO scintillators of the synchrotron radiation emitted by the electrons passing through a bending dipole magnet. A 100 GeV $蟺^-$ beam is used to test the method in the NA64 experiment resulting in a suppression factor of $10^{-5}$ while the efficiency for electron detection is $\sim$95%. The spectra and the rejection factors are in very good agreement with the Monte Carlo simulation. The reported suppression factors are significantly better than previously achieved. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1703.05993v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1703.05993v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 17 March, 2017; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> March 2017. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">10 pages, 6 figures</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1611.00299">arXiv:1611.00299</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1611.00299">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1611.00299">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Instrumentation and Detectors">physics.ins-det</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="High Energy Physics - Experiment">hep-ex</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nima.2017.05.045">10.1016/j.nima.2017.05.045 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> The radiation field in the Gamma Irradiation Facility GIF++ at CERN </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/hep-ex?searchtype=author&query=Pfeiffer%2C+D">Dorothea Pfeiffer</a>, <a href="/search/hep-ex?searchtype=author&query=Gorine%2C+G">Georgi Gorine</a>, <a href="/search/hep-ex?searchtype=author&query=Reithler%2C+H">Hans Reithler</a>, <a href="/search/hep-ex?searchtype=author&query=Biskup%2C+B">Bartolomej Biskup</a>, <a href="/search/hep-ex?searchtype=author&query=Day%2C+A">Alasdair Day</a>, <a href="/search/hep-ex?searchtype=author&query=Fabich%2C+A">Adrian Fabich</a>, <a href="/search/hep-ex?searchtype=author&query=Germa%2C+J">Joffrey Germa</a>, <a href="/search/hep-ex?searchtype=author&query=Guida%2C+R">Roberto Guida</a>, <a href="/search/hep-ex?searchtype=author&query=Jaekel%2C+M">Martin Jaekel</a>, <a href="/search/hep-ex?searchtype=author&query=Ravotti%2C+F">Federico Ravotti</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="1611.00299v3-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> The high-luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) upgrade is setting now a new challenge for particle detector technologies.

The increase in luminosity will produce a particle background in the gas-based muon detectors that is ten times higher than under conditions at the LHC. The detailed knowledge of the detector performance in the presence of such a high background is crucial for an optimized design and efficient operation after the HL-LHC upgrade. A precise understanding of possible aging effects of detector materials and gases is of extreme importance. To cope with these challenging requirements, a new Gamma Irradiation Facility (GIF++) was designed and built at the CERN SPS North Area as successor of the Gamma Irradiation Facility (GIF) during the Long Shutdown 1 (LS1) period. It features an intense source of 662 keV photons with adjustable intensity, to simulate continuous background over large areas, and, combined with a high energy muon beam, to measure detector performance in the presence of the background. The new GIF++ facility has been operational since spring 2015. In addition to describing the facility and its infrastructure, the goal of this work is to provide an extensive characterization of the GIF++ photon field with different configurations of the absorption filters in both the upstream and downstream irradiation areas. Moreover, the measured results are benchmarked with Geant4 simulations to enhance the knowledge of the radiation field. The absorbed dose in air in the facility may reach up to 2.2 Gy/h directly in front of the irradiator. Of special interest is the low-energy photon component that develops due to the multiple scattering of photons within the irradiator and from the concrete walls of the bunker. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1611.00299v3-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1611.00299v3-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 8 June, 2017; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 1 November, 2016; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2016. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1610.02988">arXiv:1610.02988</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1610.02988">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1610.02988">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="High Energy Physics - Experiment">hep-ex</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="High Energy Physics - Phenomenology">hep-ph</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.118.011802">10.1103/PhysRevLett.118.011802 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Search for invisible decays of sub-GeV dark photons in missing-energy events at the CERN SPS </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/hep-ex?searchtype=author&query=NA64+Collaboration"> NA64 Collaboration</a>, <a href="/search/hep-ex?searchtype=author&query=Banerjee%2C+D">D.

It is based on a principal component analysis of energy deposits in the calorimeter layers, exploiting longitudinal shower development information to improve the measured energy resolution. Corrections for invisible hadronic energy and energy lost in dead material in front of and between the calorimeters of the ATLAS experiment were calculated with simulated Geant4 Monte Carlo events and used to reconstruct the energy of pions impinging on the calorimeters during the 2004 Barrel Combined Beam Test at the CERN H8 area. For pion beams with energies between 20 GeV and 180 GeV, the particle energy is reconstructed within 3% and the energy resolution is improved by between 11% and 25% compared to the resolution at the electromagnetic scale. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1012.4305v4-abstract-full').style.display = 'none';
