Long term aging studies of the new PMTs for the HL-LHC ATLAS hadronic calorimeter upgrade Open
TileCal, the central hadron calorimeter of the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), is readout by about 10,000 photomultipliers (PMTs). Earlier studies for the performance showed a degradation in PMT response as a function …

Housing Subsidies for Refugees: Experimental Evidence on Life Outcomes and Social Integration in Jordan Open
Refugees require assistance for basic needs like housing but local host communities may feel excluded from that assistance, potentially affecting community relations. This study experimentally evaluates the effect of a housing assistance p…

Top quark mass and production from CDF Open
We present the latest results about the top quark obtained by the CDF experiment using a data sample of about 110 pb −1 collected at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. We briefly describe the production cross section determination and the top…

Upgrade of ATLAS hadronic Tile Calorimeter for the High Luminosity LHC Open
The Tile Calorimeter (TileCal) is the hadronic calorimeter covering the central region of the ATLAS experiment. The High-Luminosity phase of LHC, delivering five times the LHC nominal instantaneous luminosity, is expected to start in 2029.…

A systematic review of evidence-based interventions for child and adolescent mental health problems in low- and middle-income countries Open
This review shows that different interventions have been effective in LMICs and have the potential to close the mental health care gap among children and adolescents in low-resource settings.

Raising awareness on gender issues: a path through physics, outreach and diversity Open
When and where it is convenient to start working on raising awareness on gender issues? Our answer is that high school is definitely a good start, mainly if we think that outreach activities can have a role in the transition to an environm…

Long term aging test of the new PMTs for the HL-LHC ATLAS hadron calorimeter upgrade Open
In the HL-LHC phase we expect that PMTs installed in the ATLAS Tile Calorimeter, will collect a large anodic charge with a reduction of their response. Based on data collected on currently installed PMTs (Hamamatsu R7877), the ATLAS Collab…
