Generally adopted design strategies for enhancing the photocatalytic activity are aimed at tuning properties such as the visible light response, the exposed crystal facets, and the nanocrystal shape. Here, we present a different approach…
In the ATLAS Muon Spectrometer, Monitored Drift Tube (MDT) chambers and sMDT chambers with half of the tube diameter of the MDTs are used for precision muon track reconstruction. The sMDT chambers are designed for operation at high counting…
The CMS drift tubes (DT) muon detector, built for withstanding the LHC expected integrated and instantaneous luminosities, will be used also in the High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) at a 5 times larger instantaneous luminosity and, consequently,…
For the muon spectrometer of the ATLAS detector at the large hadron collider (LHC), large drift chambers consisting of 6 to 8 layers of pressurized drift tubes are used for precision tracking covering an active area of 5000 m2 in the…
We propose that the machinability of hard ceramics can be improved by reversible electrochemical doping. On the example of TiO2, we show in a combined density functional theory-molecular dynamics computational study that a small amount of…
One of the critical challenges in future high current tokamaks is the avoidance of runaway electrons during disruptions. Here, we investigate disruptions mitigated with combined deuterium and noble gas injection in SPARC. We use…
The efficiency of glass ceramic sealants plays a crucial role in high temperature applications performance and durability, such as oxygen separation from air. In order to develop suitable sealants, operating at about 950C, several…
Commercially available gases contain residual impurities leading to a background oxygen partial pressure of typically several 10^{-6} bar, independent of temperature. This oxygen partial pressure is inappropriate for the growth of some…
The ion conductivity of a solid-state ion conductor generally increases exponentially upon reduction in ion migration barrier. For prevalent cathode material LiCoO2, the room-temperature ion conductivity and migration barrier are…
As PEP-II is exceeding the original design luminosity, BaBar is currently upgrading its Level 1 Drift Chamber Trigger (DCT) to reduce the rate of background Level 1 triggers by more than 50% while preserving the high Level 1 trigger physics…
In this technical report, the work done by members of the DAE$\delta$ALUS collaboration on simulating the acceleration of 5 mA of H2+ in the IsoDAR compact isochronous cyclotron is summarized. The findings are that sufficient turn…
We present surface pictures of the damaged electrodes from the Glass Resistive Plate Chambers (GRPCs) taken by an Atomic Force Microscope (AFM). For the test, a set of chambers were operated with freon mixed gas (damaged) and freonless gas…
A novel liquid argon (LAr) purity monitor was developed with a sensitivity to electronegative impurities of the order of ppb (O$_2$ equivalent). Such a high purity is e.g. needed in a LAr drift chamber. The principle is to measure the…
V$_{2}$O$_{5}$ in its $\omega$ phase (Li$_{3}$V$_{2}$O$_{5}$) with excess lithium is a potential alternative to the graphite anode for lithium-ion batteries at low temperature and fast charging conditions due to its safer voltage (0.6 V vs…
Fabricating electrochemical energy storage devices demands significant energy for drying cell components to ensure optimal performance. The development of new, water-tolerant materials would represent a tremendous advance in cost savings…
We propose a model for the simulation of the blowdown of vessels containing two-phase (gas-liquid) hydrocarbon fluids, considering non equilibrium between phases. Two phases may be present either already at the beginning of the blowdown…
MoO2/C-composites have been fabricated for the first time by a tartaric acid/glucose-assisted sol-gel method with post-annealing at 500 {\deg}C for 1 h in N2 flow. The synthesized materials were fully characterized with respect to…
Drift chambers operated with helium-based gas mixtures represent a common solution for tracking charged particles keeping the material budget in the sensitive volume to a minimum. The drawback of this solution is the worsening of the…
The combination of strong disorder and many-body interactions in Anderson insulators lead to a variety of intriguing non-equilibrium transport phenomena. These include slow relaxation and a variety of memory effects characteristic of…
We have performed an isovalent substitution study in a layered titanium oxypnictide system BaTi$_{2}$(Sb$_{1-x}$Bi$_{x}$)$_{2}$O (0$\leq x\leq$ 0.40) by the measurements of x-ray diffraction, electrical resistivity and magnetic…
