The Beam Dump Facility (BDF) is a planned fixed-target installation in CERN's North Area, set to start operating in 2031. A proton beam of 400 GeV/c will be delivered in 1 s pulses of 4e13 protons every 7.2 s, amounting to 4e19 protons on…

A characterisation of scintillating fibres with silicon photomultiplier read-out was performed in view of their possible application in fibre tracking detector systems. Such a concept is being considered for the Kaos spectrometer at the…

The antiProton Unstable Matter Annihilation experiment (PUMA) at CERN aims to study the nucleonic composition in the matter density tail of stable and radioactive nuclei using low-energy antiprotons. Since there is no facility in which both…

The PAX project at GSI Darmstadt plans to polarize an antiproton beam by repeated interaction with a hydrogen target in a storage ring. Many of the beam particles are required to remain within the ring after interaction with the target, so…

Fermilab has long had the world's most intense antiproton source, but the opportunities for medium-energy antiproton physics have been limited, and those for low-energy antiproton physics nonexistent. The conclusion of E835 brings this era…

PANDA is one of the major experiments currently under construction at FAIR/Darmstadt. Its focus is physics with high intensity and high quality anti-proton beams with momenta up to 15 GeV/c. Event rates up to 20MHz, and a typical event size…

Galactic cosmic rays are mostly made up of energetic nuclei, with less than $1\%$ of electrons (and positrons). Precise measurement of the electron and positron component requires a very efficient method to reject the nuclei background,…
