Predictive maintenance in industrial machinery relies on the timely detection of component faults to prevent costly downtime. Rolling bearings, being critical elements, are particularly prone to defects such as outer race faults and ball spin defects...
The early stages of most particle accelerator chains produce sub-ns bunches with velocities in the range of 1% to 20% of the speed of light. Fast Faraday Cups (FFCs) are designed to measure the longitudinal charge distribution of these short bunches...
A common method to examine the reliability of thin films and small volumes of irradiated materials being used in aerospace, energy, and protective coating applications is biaxial straining. With such tests, the fracture and deformation mechanisms occ...
Neutron Resonance Transmission Analysis (NRTA) is a non-destructive technique allowing the elemental and isotopic characterization of materials and objects. This study represents a first step toward understanding the NRTA technique and developing a n...
Ultrashort bunch length measurements are crucial for characterizing electron beams in short-pulse accelerators, including novel accelerators like EuPRAXIA and those used for free-electron lasers (FELs). This work provides an overview of the design pr...
Cherenkov radiation is a widely used detection mechanism in high-energy and astroparticle physics experiments, particularly in water-based detectors operated by leading cosmic-ray observatories. Its popularity stems from its robustness, cost-effectiv...
A positioning system employing visual fiducial markers (AprilTags) has been implemented for use with handheld mine detection equipment. To be suitable for a battery-powered real-time application, the system has been designed to operate at low power (...
A multi-strip detector made of synthetic single crystal diamond (SCD), based on a p-type/intrinsic diamond/Schottky metal transverse configuration and operating at zero bias voltage, was developed for imaging from extreme UV (EUV) to soft X-rays. The...
Laser-accelerated electron beams, in the so-called Very High-Energy Electron (VHEE) energy range, are of great interest for biomedical applications. For instance, laser-driven VHEE beams are envisaged to offer suitable compact accelerators for the pr...
The Large Binocular Telescope (LBT) is a world-leading astronomical observatory, where the Italian partnership has played an important role in increasing the telescope’s productivity, both through an optimized observing strategy and through pee...
