14 Verification of neutron multiplicity spectrum anomaly in high Z materials with Geant4 simulations

The NEMESIS collaboration reports a deviation of the muon-induced neutron multiplicity spectra in lead targets at underground depths from Monte-Carlo based predictions. This manifests as a deviation of the spectrum shape from a single power law model, with an excess of events at high multiplicities [W.H. Trzaska et al., Nucl. Phys. A 1070, 123389 (2026)]. This small but persistent anomalous component could be a sign of an unidentified exotic process, such as dark matter decay or self-annihilation in baryonic matter.

A brief overview of the experimental setup and the planned upgrade, including replacing He-3 tubes with Large Area Neutron Detectors (LAND), i.e. B-coated straw detectors (with 9:1 Ar/CO2 mixture) will be shown.

In view of the planned follow-up measurement campaign, a new effort has recently started to scrutinize the muon-induced neutron multiplicity spectrum model and better understand its systematic uncertainties. First results of the study will be presented, including a systematic quantification of the single-power-law hypothesis across the full parameter space of muon energy and target thickness.

15 Development of a New Eco-Friendly Gas Mixture for the PICOSEC-Micromegas Detector

Picosec Micromegas (Picosec-MM) is a precise-timing Micro-Pattern Gaseous Detector (MPGD) that aims at achieving a time resolution on the tens of ps, overcoming the classical limit of few ns for these technologies. To do that, the Cherenkov photons produced in a radiator are converted, by a photocathode, into electrons that are amplified in a two stage process in a micromegas structure. Recent test beams campaigns proved that this technology can reach a time resolution of about σₜ ≈ 10 ps with a single-pad prototype.
The standard gas mixture is based on neon (Ne), ethane and tetrafluoromethane (CF4). The latter has a high Global Warming Potential (GWP) and poses environmental and regulatory challenges. Alternative Ne-based mixtures using isobutane (iC4H10) as a quencher have been studied, achieving comparable timing performance while eliminating fluorinated gases and reducing the GWP by several orders of magnitude. Additionally, mixtures based on helium and argon have also been explored, showing promising results and potential cost benefits. This contribution presents a comparison of the different gas mixtures, highlighting their strengths, limitations, and implications for future applications of the technology.

16 Design, construction and operation of a drift chamber prototype for the SAND inner tracker of the DUNE Experiment

The SAND (System for On‑Axis Neutrino Detection) detector is part of the DUNE Near Detector complex and consists of a superconducting magnet, an electromagnetic calorimeter, a Liquid Argon active target, and an innovative light target–tracker made of graphite and polypropylene sheets interleaved with tracking planes. The requirements for this latter sub‑detector include a spatial resolution of 200 um and a momentum resolution for charged particles better than 5% at 1 GeV/c.
Thanks to an innovative design currently under study, based on drift chamber technology, it is possible to meet the performance requirements while combining construction simplicity with the reliability of a well‑established detector technology. The proposed system features a modular structure composed of active layers alternating with passive targets. Each active layer consists of three wire planes separated by bi‑aluminized Mylar foils; within each plane, signal wires alternate with field wires.
I will present the simulations performed to study the layout of the drift chamber cells and the construction of a mid-scale drift‑chamber prototype for SAND, together with an initial evaluation of its spatial and time resolution obtained through exposure to muons from the CERN SPS beamline. This study provided quantitative evidence supporting the validation of the chosen drift‑chamber design.

17 Characterizing HXR interactions in a GEM-based SXR tokamak diagnostic using a hybrid Geant4/Garfield++ approach with precomputed cascades

Tokamak plasmas emit X-ray radiation with an intensity peak in the soft X-ray (SXR) range and a long tail from the free-free component in the hard X-ray (HXR) regime. This high-energy bremsstrahlung can penetrate the detector shielding, thus bypassing the pinhole-based optical path designed for SXR detection. In a Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM)-based SXR diagnostic, this HXR background can generate measurable signals despite much lower emission intensities. Because HXR radiation typically deposits only a fraction of its energy in the detector's drift chamber, the resulting signals can falsely imitate those from lower-energy photons. Accurately obtaining the response of the detector in this environment requires the simulation of a multitude of physical processes along the radiation path. To achieve this, a hybrid Geant4/Garfield++ software stack was employed. Given the high volume of simulations required to obtain the detector response across a large energy range (20 to 200 keV), cascade precomputation was utilized to accelerate the amplification stages of the full-detector simulations. Finally, HXR spectra obtained from the WEST tokamak were used to scale the inbound radiation, and the resulting simulated response was compared with experimental data from the WEST SXR diagnostic.

18 Impact of environmental pressure and temperature variations on triple-GEM detector gas gain

The gas electron amplification factor of Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) detectors depends on the mixture, the temperature and the pressure. While the gas mixture can be adjusted precisely, the gas temperature and pressure are influenced by the fluctuations of the environmental parameters. Correcting for such variations is therefore crucial to maintain stable operating conditions or to compare performance measured in different conditions. A Garfield++ simulation was used to study the dependence of triple-GEM gas gain on temperature and pressure. The results of the study are presented alongside complementary measurements.

19 Simulation Studies and Initial Results from the 27Al(α,p)30Si Cross Section Measurement with TACTIC

TRIUMF Annular Chamber for Tracking and Identification of Charged Particles (TACTIC) is a cylindrical Active Target Time Projection Chamber (TPC) designed to study alpha-induced charged-particle reactions of astrophysical significance. TACTIC employs the micro resistive well detector (μRWELL) as the gas amplification stage, enabling excellent tracking of charged particles in the energy range of a few keV to several MeV, due to the high gain (>10⁴).

Recently, the first measurement of the ²⁷Al(α,p)³⁰Si reaction cross section in the Gamow window was performed at TRIUMF, using a ²⁷Al beam at 1.65 MeV/u. The ²⁷Al(α,p)³⁰Si reaction is important for improving existing core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) model calculations by modifying the flow of material to heavier masses, specifically affecting the production of ⁵⁶Ni.

Simulation-based work for improved data analysis and optimisation of this measurement will be presented, alongside some initial results. Through the use of Garfield++, and the Geant4-based NPTool framework, such reactions are accurately modelled inside TACTIC for the purpose of implementing pad-by-pad energy calibration, improved vertex reconstruction and enhanced particle identification (PID). Additionally, the application of machine learning algorithms to NPTool simulation data and its impact on improving PID will be highlighted.

20 Signal integrity simulations of the Large Area Micromegas for the AMBER experiment at CERN

The AMBER experiment is a fixed target experiment located at the EH2 hall of the CERN SPS. Several upgrades of the spectrometer are foreseen during LS3, including the replacement of aging Multi Wire Proportional Chambers with Large Area Resistive Bulk Micromegas detectors. The large acceptance required for these detectors implies a readout based on 1m long strips. In this context, the geometrical parameters of the readout must be otpimized to ensure the proper signal transmission to the front end electronics and uniform charge sharing between different strip planes. This work presents two simulations studies addressing these aspects through different numerical approaches. A Finite Difference Time Domain simulation is employed to investigate signal integrity and propagation along the readout strips. This study enables the characterization of the transmission line effects, the estimation of the crosstalk between adjacent strips and the evaluation of their impedance. In parallel, a Finite Element Method simulation is used to compute the weighting field between two strip planes. This analysis identifies the optimal strip width ratio that maximizes charge sharing between the two planes. These results contributed to a deeper understanding of the AMBER Large Area Micromegas design and provides guidance for future optimizations.

21 Development of 5mm diameter thin walled straw tubes for transverse profile measurement in the CERN North Experimental Area.

As part of the development of a future radiation hard transverse profile monitor for the north area at CERN, we here report on the development of a 5 mm diameter thin walled straw tube detector. We show a novel 3D-printed straw endcap design, and verify that the endcaps keep the correct wire tension. We demonstrate agreement within 1% between a GARFIELD++ simulation of the straw detector gain and a measurement made using an X-ray source, and agreement within 3% between between the simulation and data taken at the T10 beamline at CERN. With the validated simulation, we calculate a possible single-straw resolution of 0.20 mm with the current 50/50 Ar/CO2 gas mixture. Future work includes verifying this with a beam telescope, as well as studying the straw behaviour at higher beam intensities, as well as radiation damage effects on the straw.

22 Characterization of a dual-readout calorimeter prototype with e+ and μ+ data for applications at the FCC

Despite its extraordinary success, the Standard Model leaves several fundamental questions unanswered, requiring a new generation of colliders and detectors. The Future Circular Collider (FCC-ee) demands detectors with extreme precision in tracking, particle identification, and energy measurement.
This work presents the simulation and characterization of a compact crystal-based electromagnetic calorimeter prototype for the IDEA detector, exploiting the dual-readout technique, the simultaneous measurement of scintillation and Cherenkov light, to improve energy resolution. The simulation chain consists of two stages: a Geant4-based Monte Carlo reproducing the 2024 test beam setup, where a single crystal was read out by two SiPMs with an optical filter on one side to isolate the Cherenkov component; and a Python-based SiPM digitization accounting for photon detection efficiency, dark count rate, optical crosstalk, and saturation.
Data from 120 GeV muon runs collected at the CERN North Area are compared to simulation. Discrepancies are addressed through a nuisance parameter fit modelling systematic uncertainties in light yield, Cherenkov yield, wrapping reflectivity, and angular misalignment.
The results validate the full simulation pipeline and confirm the measurability of the Cherenkov signal in a compact geometry. Future developments include simulating the 3×3 crystal matrix for the upcoming test beam.

23 Optimization of the strip design in Floating Strip Micromegas based on signal formation studies

Floating Strip Micromegas are micro-pattern gaseous detectors featuring high spatial and temporal resolution, as well as excellent rate capability, enabling single-particle tracking at rates of order MHz/cm². The readout structure consists of two layers of perpendicular copper readout strips below a layer of copper anode strips. Partially bipolar signal formation on the readout strips depends especially on the strip geometry.
The study of signal formation in Floating Strip Micromegas, as presented in this poster, enables the optimization of strip designs with respect to charge maximization and sharing between orthogonal strip layers.
Different geometrical configurations were investigated using numerical simulations (1). Weighting fields are computed with ANSYS, enabling signal investigation using microscopic simulations of electron transport and avalanche formation performed with GARFIELD++.
To experimentally complement the simulation results, a dedicated multi-quadrant Floating Strip Micromegas detector has been designed and constructed. The detector features an active area of 200 × 200 mm², segmented into 16 sectors, each implementing a distinct strip geometry. This configuration enables a direct and controlled comparison within a single detector environment, thereby minimizing systematic uncertainties related to gas composition, environmental conditions, and mechanical variations.

24 GridPix Detector as an Advanced Alternative to IXPE GPD: Experimental Characterization and Validation with GEANT4 Simulations.

The Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) provides information about polarized x-ray emissions from astrophysical sources.But the detector of IXPE has revealed some limitations such as decrease in the gas gain, narrow energy band and the large dead time (1.1ms) which is incompatible with the brightest sources.To overcome these limitations, we are developing a next generation 3-D photoelectron track polarimeter based on Gridpix detector with ASICs Timepix3. Gridpix prevents the buildup of charge on the metallic mesh, offering a small diffusion with respect to GEM.We can record Time-of-Arrival (ToA) and Time-over-Threshold (ToT) simultaneously in each pixel and solve the issue of dead time. In this work Gridpix detector experimentally characterized at the INAF-IAPS laboratory using gas mixture of argon (Ar) and dimethyl ether (DME).We present the tuning of the simulation to achieve agreement with experimental measurements,which heightlight the importance of accurately modeling both the detector response and the reconstruction method. These results demonstrate the strong potential of the GridPix detector with an Ar:DME gas mixture as a promising candidate for future high-precision X-ray polarimetry missions.

25 Stability Study of a Single-Mask Triple GEM Detector under X-ray Irradiation

Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) is a cutting edge Micro Pattern Gaseous detector (MPGD) technology suitable as tracking device in high rate Heavy-Ion (HI) experiments for their good spatial resolution and most importantly high rate handling capability. The performance studies including the detection efficiency, gain, energy resolution and stability under high radiation are most important aspects, to be investigated before using the detector in any experiment.

In this work, single-mask triple GEM chamber prototype is studied using strong $^{55}$Fe X-ray source. The efficiency, gain, energy resolution are measured continuously. The correlation of measured observables with ambient parameters are also studied. In the laboratory to test the stability of GEM chambers a new technique is introduced, such that the same strong X-ray source is used to irradiate the chamber as well as to store the spectra. This kind of measurement is done for the first time. The details of the experiment and new results will be discussed.

26 Predicting RPC Detector Efficiency with Eco-Friendly Gas Mixtures Using a Dense Neural Network

Resistive Plate Chamber (RPC) detectors are widely used in major CERN experiments as muon trigger systems thanks to their excellent time resolution. However, the gas mixtures currently employed in RPCs contain greenhouse gases, such as R134a and SF₆, which contribute significantly to environmental emissions. During LHC Run 2, approximately 85% of the emissions from particle detectors originated from RPC gas leaks.
For this reason, several environmentally friendly alternative gas mixtures have been investigated. Building on these efforts, this work aims to develop a neural-network-based model capable of predicting RPC efficiency curves for low-impact gas mixtures. Preliminary results show good agreement between model predictions and experimental data when the gas composition lies within the parameter space covered by the training dataset.
The goal is to extend the model’s predictive power to predict the behavior of mixtures with arbitrary combinations of known components, as well as new gas components not included in the training data, thus providing a versatile tool for the study and optimization of sustainable RPC operation. This poster will present the current status of the project and the planned future developments.

27 LHCb Muon system towards Upgrade 2

Gaseous detectors play a crucial role in the LHCb experiment, in particular in the Muon system, which is essential for the experiment’s broad physics program. The Muon software framework is a key component of detector operations, providing a comprehensive environment for simulation, reconstruction, and performance monitoring. In particular, the simulation supports current data-taking and the detector preparation for future high-luminosity LHC conditions.
This contribution presents the latest developments in the simulation of the LHCb Muon detector. A dedicated simulation tool has been developed to evaluate detector performance under LHC Run 5 conditions, providing critical insights into the high-rate environment expected in the future. Key aspects of the detector response have been investigated, yielding quantitative input for the design and optimization of the Muon Upgrade II configuration.
These developments are currently being integrated into the official LHCb simulation framework. Furthermore, this simulation work is complemented by experimental R&D activities, including the testing and characterization of new detector technologies. These efforts ensure the validation of simulation models and strengthen the synergy between software development and hardware design for the next generation of the LHCb Muon detector.

28 Development and performance studies of a MPGD-Based Hadronic Calorimeter for Future Colliders.

Lepton colliders, such as FCC-ee and a multi-TeV muon collider, have been proposed as possible options to investigate the Standard Model (SM) after the HL-LHC. In this context, calorimeters at future experimental facilities will require excellent energy resolution to effectively differentiate between hadronic decays of W and Z bosons, good granularity at the $O(1\ \mathrm{cm}^2)$ level, and excellent time resolution of a few nanoseconds, to be compliant with Particle Flow Algorithms that allow achieving optimal jet reconstruction performance.

We propose a hadronic calorimeter (HCAL) consisting of a sampling structure of absorber material and resistive Micro-Pattern Gaseous Detectors (MPGD) as the active layers.

In this contribution the latest developments in the project will be presented, including simulation studies using GEANT4 and recent results from test beam campaigns, focusing on the performance of the MPGD active layers and the hadronic-shower response of a 12 layers MPGD-HCAL prototype, where first 8-layers are of the dimensions of $20 \times 20\ \text{cm}^2$ and last the 4-layers of $50 \times 50\ \text{cm}^2$.
