PICOSEC-Micromegas Detector, an innovative solution for Lepton Time Tagging

The PICOSEC-Micromegas (PICOSEC-MM) detector is a novel gaseous detector designed for precise timing resolution in experimental measurements. It eliminates time jitter from charged particles in ionization gaps by using extreme UV Cherenkov light emitted in a crystal, detected by a Micromegas photodetector with an appropriate photocathode. The first single-channel prototype tested in 150 GeV/c muon beams achieved a timing resolution below 25 ps, a significant improvement compared to standard Micropattern Gaseous Detectors (MPGDs). This work explores the specifications for applying these detectors in monitored neutrino beams for the ENUBET Project. Key aspects include exploring resistive technologies, resilient photocathodes, and scalable electronics. New 7-pad resistive detectors are designed to handle the particle flux. In this paper, two potential scenarios are briefly considered: tagging electromagnetic showers with a timing resolution below 30ps in an electromagnetic calorimeter as well as individual particles (mainly muons) with about 20ps respectively.

Reggeometry of lepton- and hadron-induced reactions

We append a simple Pomeron pole amplitude by t and Q{sup 2}, MV dependencies inspired by geometrical ideas. The experimentally transition from soft to hard dynamics is realized by the introduction of a two-component Pomeron with different Q{sup 2} and M{sub V}-dependent residues. A unified description of deeply virtual Compton scattering (DVCS), of exclusive electroproduction of all vector mesons as well as of elastic pp scattering is suggested.

SMWDs as SGRs/AXPs and the lepton number violation

Possible nature of strongly magnetized white dwarfs (SMWDs) is studied. It is shown that for relatively low values of the equatorial surface magnetic field B ∼ 10{sup 9} − 10{sup 11} G they can be good candidates for soft gamma-ray repeaters and anomalous X-ray pulsars (SGRs/AXPs). For the case of iron SMWDs the influence of a neutrinoless electron to positron conversion on the SGRs/AXPs luminosity is estimated.
