The PADME experiment, by using the positron beam of the Frascati laboratory, aims at searching for signals of a dark photon, A′ . It will evaluate the final state missing mass of the process e+ e- → A′ γ by knowing the beam energy and measuring the four-momentum of the ordinary recoil photon. The precise determination of this quantity, and the capability to reject background events, are the key points for the success of the experiment. In this paper a description of each component of the PADME detector is given.

One of the main involvements of the INFN-Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati group in channeling researches is described, i.e. the crystal undulator R & D, with the characterization of the crystal undulator prototypes with SEM and the positron beam. We consider a precise determination of the optimal experimental conditions for channeling of this kind of accelerated particles through such microstructured crystals, as promising candidates for producing X-ray beams.

ABSTRACTWe report the first yield spectroscopy study on well characterized c-Si/a-Si:H heterojunctions grown in situ under UHV conditions. We find that this spectroscopy, when operated in the constant final state mode, allows a direct and precise determination of the valence-band discontinuity at the interface. A value of δEv = 0.44 ± 0.02 eV was found for the discontinuity.

AbstractPositronium annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS) using a positron beam is a proven technique to characterize porosity in amorphous thin film materials. The capability to control the depth of the implanted positrons is unique to beams as compared to traditional bulk PALS techniques. By increasing the positron beam energy, positrons are implanted deeper into the film. Control of the positron implantation depth in beam-PALS allows analysis of sub- micron films, investigation of depth-dependent film inhomogeneities, determination of pore interconnection lengths, and access to buried films under barrier layers. Details on PALS depth profiling and an example of applying the technique to a plasma-enhanced-chemical-vapor- deposited (PECVD) porous film are presented.

A precise method for the determination of the increment of the  basal area using the PressIer bore. Refering to  previous research showing that the basal area of the corsica pine could be  characterized by an ellips, we present in this paper a precise method for the  determination of the increment of the basal area. In this method we determine  the direction of the maximum diameter, we measure this diameter and we take a  core in one of the points of tangency of the caliper with the measured tree.  The determination of the diameter perpendicular to the maximum diameter  finishes the work wich is to be done in the forest. From the classical  measurements effectuated on the core and from the measured diameters we can  then determine the form (V) and the excentricity (e). Substituting these two  parameters in the formula 2 or 2', we can also calculate the error of a  radius measured on the core with respect to the representative radius, This  error with them allow us to correct the measured value of the minimum or the  maximum radius and we will be able to do a precise determination of the  increment.
