CYGNO is a project realising a cubic meter demonstrator to study the scalability of the optical readout concept for a large-volume, GEM-equipped gaseous TPC to be operated at atmospheric pressure that represents an ideal candidate to be employed as directional detectors for rare events studies.
The combined use of high-granularity sCMOS and fast sensors for reading out the light produced in...
Kinetic Inductance Detector (KID) is an exciting device that promises high sensitivity, large format, and submillimeter waves for X-ray imaging arrangements for astrophysics. The KID consists of a superconductor thin film microwave resonator combined with a transmission line. When energy accumulates, Cooper's pair in superconductor films break, producing a quasi-particle. This change increases...
