First observation of a tau neutrino charged current interaction with charm production in the OPERA experiment: OPERA Collaboration
(2020) Agafonova, N.; Aleksandrov, A.; Anokhina, A.; Aoki, S.; Polukhina, N.; Полухина, Наталья Геннадьевна
© 2020, The Author(s).An event topology with two secondary vertices compatible with the decay of short-lived particles was found in the analysis of neutrino interactions in the OPERA target. The observed topology is compatible with tau neutrino charged current (CC) interactions with charm production and neutrino neutral current (NC) interactions with cc¯ pair production. However, other processes can mimic this topology. A dedicated analysis was implemented to identify the underlying process. A Monte Carlo simulation was developed and complementary procedures were introduced in the kinematic reconstruction. A multivariate analysis technique was used to achieve an optimal separation of signal from background. Most likely, this event is a ντ CC interaction with charm production, the tau and charm particle decaying into 1 prong and 2 prongs, respectively. The significance of this observation is evaluated.

(2022) Alexandrov, A. B.; Vasina, S. G.; Galkin, V. I.; Gippius, A. A.; Grachev, V. M.; Kalinina, V. G.; Konovalov, A. S.; Konovalova, N. S.; Korolev, P. S.; Larionov, A. A.; Managadze, A. K.; Melnichenko, I. A.; Okateva, N. M.; Polukhina, N. G.; Roganova, T. M.; Sadykov, Zh. T.; Starkov, N. I.; Starkova, E. N.; Tyukov, V. E.; Chernyavsky, M. M.; Shevchenko, V. I.; Shchedrina, T. V.; Шевченко, Владимир Игоревич; Ларионов, Алексей Александрович; Полухина, Наталья Геннадьевна
An innovative noninvasive method of muonography based on emulsion detectors has been developed. The new method enables detection of changes in the fluxes of atmospheric muons passing through the object under study and determination of the specific features of its internal structure. Owing to the use of the state-of-the-art automated scanning facilities, large-scale studies of natural and industrial objects can be carried out that require processing of large quantity of photoemulsion. A major muonography experiment, in which the internal structure of buildings and the territory of the Svyato-Troitsky Danilov Monastery had been examined, is described in detail.

High resolution track matching in a hybrid SciFi-emulsion detector
(2022) Chernyavskiy, M. M.; Gippius, A. A.; Konovalova, N. S.; Malinin, A. G.; Okateva, N. M.; Petrov, A. N.; Polukhina, N. G.; Shevchenko, V. I.; Shchedrina, T. V.; Starkova, E. N.; Starkov, N. I.; Шевченко, Владимир Игоревич; Полухина, Наталья Геннадьевна
IOP Publishing Ltd and Sissa Medialab.The paper describes the matching of tracks in a nuclear emulsion detector interleaved with scintillating optical fiber (SciFi) planes. This technology is planned to be used in the Scattering and Neutrino Detector (SND) of the new experiment SHiP (Search for Hidden Particles) being developed in CERN. The experiment SHiP aimed on the search of very weakly interacting particles in the poorly studied region of the particle masses below 10 GeV will be installed in a beam dump facility at the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS). The SND detector is aimed to provide temporal and spatial analysis of the particle showers and isolated tracks to separate and reconstruct events in nuclear emulsion. SND design includes emulsion cloud chamber (ECC) and SciFi tracker. Motivation for using the combination of ECC and SciFi is to obtain the "real-time"information for the prompt and high-accuracy event analysis. The algorithm presented in the article provides a track matching accuracy not less than 50 μm with an efficiency of (89±8)%.

© 2021, The Author(s).Dark matter is a well-established theoretical addition to the Standard Model supported by many observations in modern astrophysics and cosmology. In this context, the existence of weakly interacting massive particles represents an appealing solution to the observed thermal relic in the Universe. Indeed, a large experimental campaign is ongoing for the detection of such particles in the sub-GeV mass range. Adopting the benchmark scenario for light dark matter particles produced in the decay of a dark photon, with αD = 0.1 and mA′ = 3mχ, we study the potential of the SHiP experiment to detect such elusive particles through its Scattering and Neutrino detector (SND). In its 5-years run, corresponding to 2 · 1020 protons on target from the CERN SPS, we find that SHiP will improve the current limits in the mass range for the dark matter from about 1 MeV to 300 MeV. In particular, we show that SHiP will probe the thermal target for Majorana candidates in most of this mass window and even reach the Pseudo-Dirac thermal relic. [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

History of heavy r-process elements in galactic cosmic rays from nuclei tracks in meteorite olivine
(2022) Alexandrov, A.; Babaev, P.; Bagulya, A.; Chernyavsky, M.; Gippius, A.; Gorbunov, S.; Grachev, V.; Kalinina, G.; Konovalova, N.; Okateva, N.; Polukhina, N.; Грачев, Виктор Михайлович; Полухина, Наталья Геннадьевна
The OLIMPIYA project studies tracks of heavy nuclei from Galactic cosmic rays (GCR) in olivine crystals from two meteorites-pallasites of different cosmic-ray exposure ages. The updated data presented is used to analyze the history of local variations in the GCR flux over the past ∼200 Myr. The analysis demonstrates the difference in the abundances of heavy nuclei registered in the meteorites and satellite detectors, as well as in the meteorites themselves. This difference may indicate the influence of at least two rare cosmic sources of r-element nucleosynthesis on GCR fluxes in the vicinity of the Solar System. Two possible sources, namely Supernovae (SN) and asymptotic giant branch stars (AGB) events versus the neutron star mergers or neutron star - black hole mergers (NSM) events, are compared in terms of the yield of r-elements. © 2022 COSPAR

Insight into History of GCR Heavy Nuclei Fluxes by Their Tracks in Meteorites
(2022) Alexandrov, A. B.; Bagulya, A. V.; Babaev, P. A.; Chernyavsky, M. M.; Gippius, A. A.; Gorbunov, S. A.; Grachev, V. M.; Polukhina, N. G.; Грачев, Виктор Михайлович; Полухина, Наталья Геннадьевна
Abstract: The OLIMPIYA project investigates tracks of galactic cosmic rays (GCR) in olivine crystals from two meteorites-pallasites of different exposure ages. Extended statistics (up to 21 743 processed tracks) enabled to reveal a difference between the charge spectra of heaviest nuclei registered in these pallasites versus those from detectors mounted on near-Earth orbit satellites, as well as a difference between the GCR spectra registered in the meteorites themselves. Comparison of the r-element abundances in these spectra points that GCR fluxes from at least two rare cosmic nucleosynthesis events with enhanced production of these elements reached the Solar System during the exposition age of the older meteorite. Correlations of the experimental results with parameters of supernovae, asymptotic giant branches stars and neutron star mergers (NSM) are also discussed. © 2022, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.

Estimation of the Fragmentation Effect in the Registration of Superheavy Nuclei of Galactic Cosmic Rays in Pallasites
(2022) Babaev, P. A.; Bagulya, A. V.; Volkov, A. E.; Gorbunov, S. A.; Polukhina, N. G.; Полухина, Наталья Геннадьевна
© 2022, Pleiades Publishing, Inc.Abstract: We report on the results of model calculations for estimating the fragmentation effect in the registration of heavy and superheavy nuclei of galactic cosmic rays in olivine crystals from pallasite at the Marjalahti and Eagle Station. The measurement of fluxes and spectra of heavy and superheavy nuclei in cosmic rays is a sensitive method for studying the composition and possible sources of cosmic rays, the processes occurring in the sources themselves and in the interstellar medium, and forms the basis for constructing models of cosmic ray confinement in the Galaxy. The database obtained in the OLIMPIYA experiment, which includes characteristics of 21743 tracks, is the largest database for charges Z > 55 at present. The estimates of fragmentation of nuclei in pallasites, which have been obtained based on model calculations, show that the effect of this process on the resulting charge spectrum is insignificant.

(2022) Ahdida, C.; Akmete, A.; Albanese, R.; Alt, J.; Atkin, E.; Dmitrenko, V.; Etenko, A.; Fillipov, K.; Grachev, V.; Kudenko, Y.; Polukhina, N.; Samsonov, V.; Shustov, A.; Skorokhvatov, M.; Smirnov, S.; Teterin, P.; Ulin, S.; Uteshev, Z.; Vlasik, K.; Аткин, Эдуард Викторович; Дмитренко, Валерий Васильевич; Этенко, Александр Владимирович; Грачев, Виктор Михайлович; Куденко, Юрий Григорьевич; Полухина, Наталья Геннадьевна; Шустов, Александр Евгеньевич; Скорохватов, Михаил Дмитриевич; Смирнов, Сергей Юрьевич; Тетерин, Пётр Евгеньевич; Улин, Сергей Евгеньевич; Утешев, Зияэтдин Мухамедович; Власик, Константин Федорович
© 2022, The Author(s).The Search for Hidden Particles (SHiP) Collaboration has proposed a general-purpose experimental facility operating in beam-dump mode at the CERN SPS accelerator to search for light, feebly interacting particles. In the baseline configuration, the SHiP experiment incorporates two complementary detectors. The upstream detector is designed for recoil signatures of light dark matter (LDM) scattering and for neutrino physics, in particular with tau neutrinos. It consists of a spectrometer magnet housing a layered detector system with high-density LDM/neutrino target plates, emulsion-film technology and electronic high-precision tracking. The total detector target mass amounts to about eight tonnes. The downstream detector system aims at measuring visible decays of feebly interacting particles to both fully reconstructed final states and to partially reconstructed final states with neutrinos, in a nearly background-free environment. The detector consists of a 50m long decay volume under vacuum followed by a spectrometer and particle identification system with a rectangular acceptance of 5 m in width and 10 m in height. Using the high-intensity beam of 400GeV protons, the experiment aims at profiting from the 4 × 10 19 protons per year that are currently unexploited at the SPS, over a period of 5–10 years. This allows probing dark photons, dark scalars and pseudo-scalars, and heavy neutral leptons with GeV-scale masses in the direct searches at sensitivities that largely exceed those of existing and projected experiments. The sensitivity to light dark matter through scattering reaches well below the dark matter relic density limits in the range from a few MeV/c2 up to 100 MeV-scale masses, and it will be possible to study tau neutrino interactions with unprecedented statistics. This paper describes the SHiP experiment baseline setup and the detector systems, together with performance results from prototypes in test beams, as it was prepared for the 2020 Update of the European Strategy for Particle Physics. The expected detector performance from simulation is summarised at the end.
