چکیده
We present experimental results using a single-electron resolution skipper CCD running above ground level to demonstrate the potential of this technology for its use in reactor neutrino observations and other low-energy particle-interaction experiments. Operating conditions event-selection criteria are provided decouple most background rate at low energies. The majority comes from interactions inactive silicon surrounding active detector volume that ends up readout register sensor. Our final compared with low-threshold technologies showing good control ionization energies down five electron-hole pairs. This demonstrates proves be among best options measure weakly interacting particles level.

Image Reconstruction of a Charge Coupled Device Based Optical Tomographic Instrumentation System for Particle Sizing
This research investigates the use of charge coupled device (abbreviated as CCD) linear image sensors in an optical tomographic instrumentation system used for sizing particles. The measurement system, consisting of four CCD linear image sensors are configured around an octagonal shaped flow pipe for a four projections system is explained. The four linear image sensors provide 2,048 pixel imagi...
متن کاملCharge-coupled device area x-ray detectors
Charge-coupled device ~CCD! area x-ray detector technology is reviewed. CCD detectors consist of a serial chain of signal components, such as phosphors, fiber optics or lenses, image intensifiers and the CCD which serve to convert the x-ray energy to light or electron-hole pairs and to record the spatially resolved image. The various combinations of components that have been used to make CCD de...
متن کاملExperiments on Coupled Technique for Adjacent Similar Buildings
Increasing the population, urbanization has led to the rapid construction of buildings. Due to space constraints and an increase in land cost, these buildings are built too close to each other and can cause damage under dynamic actions such as earthquakes. A new technique, known as Structural coupling, has been developed recently, has found very effective in dissipating the dispersive vibration...
متن کاملCalibration procedures for charge-coupled device x-ray detectors
Calibration procedures are described for use with electronic x-ray detectors, with an emphasis on detectors based on fiber-optically coupled charge-coupled devices. Methods are detailed for removing spurious events, pixel pedestals, dark-current, spatial distortion, and intensity response variations for both small-angle and wide-angle applications. The accuracy of the calibration procedures is ...
متن کاملCavity Solitons in Driven VCSELs above Threshold
CSs have been theoretically predicted and recently experimentally demonstrated in broad area, vertical cavity driven semiconductor lasers (VCSELs) slightly below the lasing threshold. Above threshold, the simple adiabatic elimination of the polarization variable is not correct, leading to oscillatory instabilities with a spuriously high critical wave-number. To achieve real insight on the compl...
