In MPGD detectors evaluation of the space resolution with the charge centroid (CC) method provides large uncertainty when the impinging particle is not perpendicular to the readout plane. An improvement of the position reconstruction, and thus of the space resolution, is represented by the $mu$TPC algorithm. In this work we report the application of this algorithm to the $mu$-Resistive WELL detector. Moreover a combination of the CC method with the $mu$TPC algorithm is proposed, showing an almost uniform resolution over a wide angular range.

In the framework of the ATTRACT-uRANIA project, funded by the European Community, we are developing an innovative neutron imaging detector based on micro-Resistive WELL ($mu$ -RWELL) technology. The $mu$ -RWELL, based on the resistive detector concep t, ensuring an efficient spark quenching mechanism, is a highly reliable device. It is composed by two main elements: a readout-PCB and a cathode. The amplification stage for this device is embedded in the readout board through a resistive layer realized by means of an industrial process with DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon). A thin layer of B$_4$C on the copper surface of the cathode allows the thermal neutrons detection through the release of $^7$Li and $alpha$ particles in the active volume. This technology has been developed to be an efficient and convenient alternative to the $^3$He shortage. The goal of the project is to prove the feasibility of such a novel neutron detector by developing and testing small planar prototypes with readout boards suitably segmented with strip or pad read out, equipped with existing electronics or readout in current mode. Preliminary results from the test with different prototypes, showing a good agreement with the simulation, will be presented together with construction details of the prototypes and the future steps of the project.
We present a detailed study of the spatial resolution of our time-resolved neutron imaging detector utilizing a new neutron position reconstruction method that improves both spatial resolution and event reconstruction efficiency. Our prototype detect or system, employing a micro-pattern gaseous detector known as the micro-pixel chamber ({mu}PIC) coupled with a field-programmable-gate-array-based data acquisition system, combines 100{mu}m-level spatial and sub-{mu}s time resolutions with excellent gamma rejection and high data rates, making it well suited for applications in neutron radiography at high-intensity, pulsed neutron sources. From data taken at the Materials and Life Science Experimental Facility within the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC), the spatial resolution was found to be approximately Gaussian with a sigma of 103.48 +/- 0.77 {mu}m (after correcting for beam divergence). This is a significant improvement over that achievable with our previous reconstruction method (334 +/- 13 {mu}m), and compares well with conventional neutron imaging detectors and with other high-rate detectors currently under development. Further, a detector simulation indicates that a spatial resolution of less than 60 {mu}m may be possible with optimization of the gas characteristics and {mu}PIC structure. We also present an example of imaging combined with neutron resonance absorption spectroscopy.

We study the effect of a finite sample size, beam divergence and detector thickness on the resolution function of a MIEZE spectrometer. We provide a transparent analytical framework which can be used to determine the optimal trade-off between incomin g flux and time resolution for a given experimental configuration. The key result of our approach is that the usual limiting factor of MIEZE spectroscopy, namely neutron path length differences throughout the instrument, can be suppressed up to relatively large momentum transfers by using a proper small-angle (SANS) geometry. Under such configuration, the hitherto accepted limits of MIEZE spectroscopy in terms of time-resolution are pushed upwards by typically an order of magnitude, giving access to most of the topical fields in soft- and hard-condensed matter physics.
Employing very simple electro-mechanical principles known from classical physics, the Kibble balance establishes a very precise and absolute link between quantum electrical standards and macroscopic mass or force measurements. The success of the Kibb le balance, in both determining fundamental constants ($h$, $N_A$, $e$) and realizing a quasi-quantum mass in the 2019 newly revised International System of Units, relies on the perfection of Maxwells equations and the symmetry they describe between Lorentzs force and Faradays induction, a principle and a symmetry stunningly demonstrated in the weighing and velocity modes of Kibble balances to within $1times10^{-8}$, with nothing but imperfect wires and magnets. However, recent advances in the understanding of the current effect in Kibble balances reveal a troubling paradox. A diamagnetic effect, a force that does not cancel between mass-on and mass-off measurement, is challenging balance makers assumptions of symmetry at levels that are almost two orders of magnitude larger than the reported uncertainties. The diamagnetic effect, if it exists, shows up in weighing mode without a readily apparent reciprocal effect in the velocity mode, begging questions about systematic errors at the very foundation of the new measurement system. The hypothetical force is caused by the coil current changing the magnetic field, producing an unaccounted force that is systematically modulated with the weighing current. Here we show that this diamagnetic force exists, but the additional force does not change the equivalence between weighing and velocity measurements. We reveal the unexpected way that symmetry is preserved and show that for typical materials and geometries the total relative effect on the measurement is $approx 1times10^{-9}$.
One of the major goals of the NEXT-White (NEW) detector is to demonstrate the energy resolution that an electroluminescent high pressure xenon TPC can achieve for high energy tracks. For this purpose, energy calibrations with 137Cs and 232Th sources have been carried out as a part of the long run taken with the detector during most of 2017. This paper describes the initial results obtained with those calibrations, showing excellent linearity and an energy resolution that extrapolates to approximately 1% FWHM at Q$_{betabeta}$.
