Advancements in experimental techniques for measuring dipole moments of short-lived particles at the LHC

Abstract
ALADDIN is a proposed fixed-target experiment at the LHC for the direct measurement of charm baryon dipole moments. The detector features a spectrometer and a Cherenkov detector, while the experimental technique is based on the phenomena of particle channelling and spin precession in bent crystals. TWOCRYST, a proof-of-principle test at the LHC for the proposed experiment, is planned during the LHC Run 3. Recent channelling efficiency measurements performed at the CERN SPS of bent crystals developed at INFN are presented, marking significant progress towards its realisation. The silicon pixel detector for TWOCRYST is under construction. It will work in the secondary vacuum of a Roman Pot positioned inside the LHC beam pipe. The design,... (More)
