Fast Ramping Accelerator Dipole Models for Fermilab’s Booster Upgrade and Muon Collider

The future discoveries in the field of High Energy Physics are led by the development of new types of accelerators. Around the world, there are a lot of researchers that are studying some possible designs for the future accelerators and some of them are considering the use of alternating current inside the superconducting magnets in order to have better efficiency. The work described in this report tries to compare some superconducting magnets made of different materials and to understand which one of them can be considered for its better performance working in a variable magnetic field. For this goal, becomes really important to control the temperature of the coil, and, as visible in the next chapter, to relate this parameter to the frequency of the magnetic field, in order to find, as will be named, the critical frequency .

MARTA’s (Muon Array with RPC for Tagging Air showers) DAQ system

The successful development of a low-power and standalone DAQ system to be used with RPCs is presented. These will be used to measure the muonic component of cosmic-ray’s air showers. The system includes a front-end, high voltage, detector monitoring and a Central Unit to manage the different components of the system. The front-end is based on the MAROC ASIC coupled to an FPGA respecting the strict demands of field operations in cosmic-ray experiments. Prototypes were produced and deployed, performing as expected. An engineering array will be installed at the Pierre Auger Observatory.

Muon to electron conversion search in the presence of Al nuclei at the Fermilab Mu2e experiment: Motivation, Design and Progress

The Mu2e experiment aims to find charged lepton flavor violation(CLFV) by measuring the monochromatic electrons from $\mu^- N\rightarrow e^- N$ conversion with an unprecedented single event sensitivity of $3 \times 10^{-17}$. When completed the experiment will improve the current limit by four orders of magnitude and make a previously unexplored phase space available for the search for beyond the standard model physics. Physics motivation for the experiment is discussed and design choices for the detectors and various sub systems are explained in this document. The construction of the Mu2e experiment is well underway and commissioning will begin in late 2022 with first data taking in late 2025 and 4-5 years of data taking thereafter to reach our goal.
