The ASTRI Mini-Array Gamma-Ray Experiment [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences
The ASTRI Mini–Array is currently being installed in Tenerife at the Observatorio del Teide to explore the gamma-ray sky in the 1-100 TeV energy range with unmatched angular resolution (a few arcminutes) across a wide field of view (10.5°).

Comparison of the Coating Structure of Silicon‐Based PECVD Coatings With Varying Organic Content

open access: yesPlasma Processes and Polymers, Volume 23, Issue 3, March 2026.
Silicon‐based PECVD coatings transition abruptly from organic SiOCH to oxidic SiOx at ~32 at% silicon, exhibiting threshold behavior in barrier performance. Chemical composition seems to dominate over porosity: SiOx coatings unexpectedly show higher porosity yet superior barrier properties, possibly due to rigid cage‐like molecular structures ...

Characterizing the Signals and Backgrounds in a Low Earth Orbiting Cherenkov Detector, and Background Mitigation Strategies

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Cherenkov detectors have been used in space for decades to measure Galactic Cosmic Rays (GCRs), Solar Energetic Particles (SEPs) and trapped particles. We present proof‐of‐concept GRAS/Geant4 simulations to both show that a cubic fused silica Cherenkov detector with SiPM in LEO has a good sensitivity to SEP and GCR protons as a function of cut‐

Vacuum silicon photomultipliers: Recent developments

open access: yesNuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 2013
Abstract VSiPMT (Vacuum Silicon PhotoMultiplier Tube) is an innovative design for a modern hybrid, high gain, silicon based photodetector based on the combination of a SiPM with a hemispherical vacuum glass PMT standard envelope. In such a device photoelectrons emitted by the photocathode are accelerated and focused by an electric field towards a ...
