متن کاملFlipping Photons Backward: Reversed Cherenkov Radiation Inspired by Metamaterials
Charged particles traveling through a conventional medium at a speed greater than the speed of light in the medium produce Cherenkov radiation in the forward directions, which is useful for particle identification and counting. Newly designed metamaterial, with their negative index of refraction, flips the radiated photons backward and thus readily separates the radiation from the emitting part...
متن کاملMeasurements of Cherenkov Photons with Silicon Photomultipliers
A novel photon detector, the Silicon Photomultiplier (SiPM), has been tested in proximity focusing Ring Imaging Cherenkov (RICH) counters that were exposed to cosmic-ray particles in Ljubljana, and a 2 GeV electron beam at the KEK research facility. This type of RICH detector is a candidate for the particle identification detector upgrade of the BELLE detector at the KEK B-factory, for which th...
متن کاملControlling Cherenkov radiation with transformation-optical metamaterials.
In high energy physics, unknown particles are identified by determining their mass from the Cherenkov radiation cone that is emitted as they pass through the detector apparatus. However, at higher particle momentum, the angle of the Cherenkov cone saturates to a value independent of the mass of the generating particle, making it difficult to effectively distinguish between different particles. ...
متن کاملCherenkov radiation by neutrinos
We discuss the Cherenkov process ν → νγ in the presence of a homogeneous magnetic field. The neutrinos are taken to be massless with only standard-model couplings. The magnetic field fulfills the dual purpose of inducing an effective neutrino-photon vertex and of modifying the photon dispersion relation such that the Cherenkov condition ω < |k| is fulfilled. For a field strength Bcrit = m 2 e/e...
