Gaseous time projection chambers (TPCs) with high readout segmentation are capable of reconstructing detailed 3D ionization distributions of nuclear recoils resulting from elastic neutron scattering. Using a system of six compact TPCs with…
Plastic scintillation detectors for Time-of-Flight (TOF) measurements are almost essential for event-by-event identification of relativistic rare isotopes. In this work, a pair of plastic scintillation detectors of 50 $\times$ 50 $\times$…
Directional detection of nuclear recoils is broadly desirable in nuclear and particle physics. At low recoil energies, this capability may be used to confirm the cosmological origin of a dark matter signal, to penetrate the so-called…
We demonstrate simultaneous measurements of the charge state, energy and angular distribution of keV ions in transmission experiments through self-supporting foils. Using a time-of-flight approach we have introduced an electrostatic…
Accurate Time-of-Flight (TOF) measurement with sub-100 picosecond resolution is a critical requirement for particle identification in future high-energy physics experiments, such as the Belle II $K_{L}$ and Muon (KLM) detector upgrade.…
A system of two microchannel-plate detectors has been successfully implemented for tracking projectile-fragmentation beams. The detectors provide interaction positions, angles, and arrival times of ions at the reaction target. The current…
We use energy discrimination of keV ions transmitted through a thin, single-crystalline silicon membrane to correlate specific angular distribution patterns formed in channelling geometry with trajectory-dependent electronic energy loss.…
A novel detector based on a polycrystalline diamond sensor is here employed in an advanced Time-Of-Flight scheme for the characterization of energetic ions accelerated during laser-matter interactions. The optimization of the detector and…
Using a single-phase liquid argon detector with a signal yield of 4.85 photoelectrons per keV of electronic-equivalent recoil energy (keVee), we measure the scintillation time dependence of both electronic and nuclear recoils in liquid…
The aim of this work is to develop high precision Time-of-Flight (TOF) devices based on high refractive index solid Cherenkov radiators read out by silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs). Cherenkov light is prompt and therefore ideal for reaching…
Time of Flight methods have been rapidly developed and used in many experiments recently for determination of particle direction, identification of particles and energy resolutions. This paper describes a method of time-mark determination…
Measurement of the Time-of-Flight (TOF) of the 511 keV gammas brings an important reduction of statistical noise in the PET image, with higher precision time measurements producing clearer images. Scintillating crystals are used to convert…

Time-Of-Flight (TOF) technique coupled with semiconductor detectors is a powerful instrument to provide real-time characterization of ions accelerated because of laser-matter interactions. Nevertheless, the presence of strong…
We are currently conceiving, through (MC) simulation, a multi-channel gamma detector array (TIARA for Time-of-flight Imaging ARrAy) for the online monitoring of protontherapy treatments. By measuring the Time-Of-Flight (TOF) between a beam…
Fast timing detectors are an essential element in the experimental setup for time-of-flight (ToF) mass measurements of unstable nuclei. We have upgraded the scintillator detectors used in experiments at the National Superconducting…
Timing-pick up detectors with excellent timing resolutions are essential in many modern nuclear physics experiments. Aiming to develop a Time-Of-Flight system with precision down to about 10 ps, we have made a systematic study of the timing…
