Radiation Patterns of RF Wireless Devices Implanted in Small Animals: Unexpected Deformations Due to Body Resonance

Anja Skrivervik, Stéphanie Lacour, Zvonimir Sipus, Mingxiang Gao, German Augusto Ramirez Arroyave, Kangling Wu

One challenge in designing RF wireless bioelectronic devices is the impact of the interaction between electromagnetic waves and host body tissues on far-field wireless performance. In this paper, we investigate a peculiar phenomenon of implantable RF wirel ...

Development of microlens-enhanced SiPMs for a radiation-hard scintillating fibre tracker at LHCb

Carina Trippl

he LHCb experiment at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is currently taking data with a newly developed Scintillating Fibre (SciFi) Tracker read out with multichannel silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs). The innermost fibre modules, exposed to the highest ra ...

The X-Point radiating regime at ASDEX Upgrade and TCV

Holger Reimerdes, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Umar Sheikh, Artur Perek, Marco Wischmeier, Bernhard Sieglin

Future fusion reactors require a safe, steady-state divertor operation. With deep divertor detachment, which is typically induced by impurity seeding, the radiation concentrates in a small region at the X-point or on closed flux surfaces above the X-point. ...

Inverse-Designed Narrowband THz Radiator for Ultrarelativistic Electrons

Rasmus Ischebeck, Benedikt Hermann

THz radiation finds various applications in science and technology. Pump-probe experiments at free-electron lasers typically rely on THz radiation generated by optical rectification of ultrafast laser pulses in electro-optic crystals. A compact and cost-ef ...

Microlens-enhanced silicon photomultiplier arrays for LHCb SciFi Tracker Upgrade Ib

Olivier Schneider, Guido Haefeli, Ettore Zaffaroni, Carina Trippl

A large-scale Scintillating Fibre Tracker has been developed and constructed for the current LHCb Upgrade 1. The high radiation by fast neutrons reduces the light yield of the detector in the course of LHC Run 3, and is challenging the tracker's hit detect ...

High-Performance CMOS SPAD-Based Sensors for Time-of-Flight PET Applications

Francesco Gramuglia

Detecting light, photon by photon, has been possible since the 1930s, with the invention of the photomultiplier tube (PMT). However, it is only since the 1970s, that solid-state single-photon detectors have emerged and only since 2003 that a new technology ...

Machine learning for metallurgy V: A neural-network potential for zirconium

William Curtin, Pandula Manura Liyanage

The mechanical performance-including deformation, fracture and radiation damage-of zirconium is determined at the atomic scale. With Zr and its alloys extensively used in the nuclear industry, understanding that atomic scale behavior is crucial. The defect ...
