A wide range of experiments have been designed over the past decades, searching for Weakly Interacting Massive Particles via their elastic scattering off the target nuclei in a detector medium. The most challenging method is to identify directionality which will provide an unambiguous proof of the galactic origin of dark matter. The measurement of directionality will ensure a clear signal to background separation. In particular, identification of dark matter direction appears only way to pass over the neutrino background. The directional detection of WIMPs requires a detector with a very high spatial resolution. The NEWSdm experiment at LNGS laboratory is proposed to detect the direction of WIMP induced nuclear recoils using newly developed nuclear emulsion and read-out systems with a sub-micron spatial resolution. The discovery potential of the proposed experiment in terms of signal significance is presented.

Molecular dynamics investigation of Moire Patterns in double-layer graphene Sökmen, Gökçe; Toffoli, Hande; Toffoli, Daniele; Department of Micro and Nanotechnology (2012) Before Moire patterns are discovered in graphene, graphene was assumed to be found in only the rhombohedral form in nature. After transfer of graphene layer over another substrate was achieved by Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov, studies on graphene gained momentum. Following this, moire paterns were observed by scanning tunelling microscopy (STM) and high resolution transmision electron microscopy (HR-TEM). However, stability of these structures are still unknown. In this thesis, for the first time in l...
Nuclear effects on the transverse momentum spectra of charged particles in pPb collisions at root s(NN)=5.02 TeV Khachatryan, V.; et. al. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2015-05-01) Transverse momentum spectra of charged particles are measured by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC in pPb collisions at root s(NN) = 5.02 TeV, in the range 0.4 20 GeV/c compared to expectations from the pp reference. The enhancement is larger than predicted by perturbative quantum chromodynamics calculations that include antishadowing modifications of nPDFs.
Direct and real-time observation of sub-micron domain dynamics in magnetically biased strontium ferrite permanent magnets by room temperature scanning micro-Hall probe microscopy Sandhu, Adarsh; Iida, Naoji; Masuda, Hiroshi; Oral, Ahmet; Bending, Simon J. (2001-01-01) A room temperature scanning micro-Hall probe microscope (RT-SHPM) was used for imaging stray magnetic field fluctuations at the surfaces of strontium ferrite permanent magnets (SFM) in the presence of external bias fields. The RT-SHPM enables the extremely fast, non-invasive, and quantitative measurement of localized surface magnetic fields on the sub-micron-scale. A 0.8 × 0.8 μm2 GaAs/AlGaAs micro-Hall probe (300K Hall coefficient = 0.3Ω/G; field sensitivity = 0.04 G/√Hz) with an integrated STM tip for pre...

Electron performance measurements with the ATLAS detector using the 2010 LHC proton-proton collision data Aad, G.; et. al. (2012-03-01) Detailed measurements of the electron performance of the ATLAS detector at the LHC are reported, using decays of the Z, W and J/psi particles. Data collected in 2010 at root s = 7 TeV are used, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of almost 40 pb(-1). The inter-alignment of the inner detector and the electromagnetic calorimeter, the determination of the electron energy scale and resolution, and the performance in terms of response uniformity and linearity are discussed. The electron identification, rec...
