The Belle detector at the KEKB electron-positron collider has collected approximately 800 million Upsilon(4S) events in its decade of operation. The KEKB group has proposed Super-KEKB, an upgrade of KEKB to increase the luminosity by two…
Long-range beam-beam interactions (parasitic crossings) were one of the main luminosity performance limitations for the lepton F-factory DAFNE in its original configuration. In particular, the parasitic crossings led to a substantial…
The phi-factory DAPHNE offers a possibility to select pure kaon beams, charged and neutral ones. In particular, neutral kaons from phi->KS KL are produced in pairs and the detection of a KS (KL) tags the presence of a KL (KS). This allows…
We have studied, with the KLOE detector at the DA$\Phi$NE $\Phi$-Factory, the dynamics of the decay $\eta\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ using data from the radiative $\phi\to\eta\gamma$ decay for an integrated luminosity $L = 450 \textrm{pb^{-1}}$.…

The 35-ton prototype for the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment far detector was a single-phase liquid argon time projection chamber with an integrated photon detector system, all situated inside a membrane cryostat. The detector took…
DUNE will be an underground neutrino oscillation experiment that will perform precision measurements of the PMNS mixing parameters, determine unambiguously the mass ordering and discover leptonic CP violation. It also comprises a rich…
The DA$\Phi$NE $\Phi$-factory is an ideal place to search for forces beyond the Standard Model. By using the KLOE detector, limits on U-boson coupling $\varepsilon^2$ of the order of $10^{-5} \div 10^{-7}$ and on the $\alpha_{\rm D} \times…
The performance of a detector using liquid xenon (LXe) as a scintillator is strongly dependent on the collection efficiency for xenon scintillation light, which in turn is critically dependent on the reflectance of the surfaces that…

The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is a next generation long baseline (1300 km) neutrino oscillation experiment. The neutrino beam measurements will be performed by a near detector (ND) and far detector (FD). The far detector…
This work concerned two experimental searches for the violation of fundamental discrete symmetries in physical systems originating from electron-positron interactions. The first study was a direct test of the symmetry under reversal in time…
In 2017, the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) at CERN has obtained an astonishing result providing proton-proton collisions with an integrated luminosity of 50.25 fb-1. The CMS (Compact Muon Solenoid), a general-purpose detector operating at the…
A Super Flavour Factory, to be built in the Tor Vergata University campus near Frascati, Italy, will have nano-beams in order to reach a design luminosity two orders of magnitude higher than the present state of the art. The knowledge and…
Test beam and irradiation facilities are the key enabling infrastructures for research in high energy physics (HEP) and astro-particles. In the last 11 years the Beam-Test Facility (BTF) of the DA{\Phi}NE accelerator complex in the Frascati…
