The FLUKA code: Description and benchmarking

TL;DR: The physics model implemented inside the FLUKA code is briefly described in this paper, with emphasis on hadronic interactions, and examples of the capabilities of the code are presented including basic (thin target) and complex benchmarks.
Journal ArticleDOI

Design, construction and tests of the ICARUS T600 detector

S. Amerio, +139 more
TL;DR: The ICARUS T600 liquid argon (LAr) time projection chamber (TPC) is the largest LAr TPC ever built, with a size of about 500 tons of fully imaging mass as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Study of electron recombination in liquid argon with the ICARUS TPC

Salvatore Amoruso, +116 more
TL;DR: In this article, electron recombination in liquid argon (LAr) has been studied by means of charged particle tracks collected in various ICARUS LAr TPC prototypes and the dependence of the recombination on the particle stopping power has been fitted with a Birks functional dependence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of the liquid argon purity in the ICARUS T600 TPC

Salvatore Amoruso, +119 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the drift electron lifetime of the first half-module of the ICARUS T600 liquid argon Time Projection Chamber (LAr TPC) during a technical run that took place on surface in Pavia (Italy).
Journal ArticleDOI

Measurement of the mu decay spectrum with the ICARUS liquid Argon TPC

Salvatore Amoruso, +127 more
TL;DR: In this article, the µ decay energy spectrum from a sample of stopping µ events acquired during the ICARUS detector was studied and the detector quality was validated through relevant physics mea- surements.
