ERC Consolidator Grant for Paolo Crivelli
Paolo Crivelli has won an ERC Consolidator Grants fo his research proposal of MuMASS, the muonium laser spectroscopy experiment.
High Efficiency Cyclotron Trap Assisted Moderator (HECTAM)
We published further advancements in the development of a high efficient positron moderator, the basis for the widespread use of positron beams for material characterization, which was already awarded as one of the top 5 Spark Award finalists.
First tests with Micromegas setup at GBAR, CERN
As a first test of the Micromegas setup used for the upcoming beamtime of GBAR, MIPs coming from the PS injection into the AD have been detected on all operating Micromegas.
Search for a Hypothetical 16.7 MeV Gauge Boson and Dark Photons in the NA64 Experiment at CERN
We report the first results on a direct search for a new 16.7 MeV boson (X) which could explain the anomalous excess of e+e− pairs observed in the excited 8Be∗ nucleus decays
Successful PhD Defense
We'd like to congratulate Gunther Wichmann for his successful PhD defense.
