The Belle II detector is designed to collect data from the high luminosity electronpositron (e+e−) collisions of the SuperKEKB collider. It will explore the flavour sector of particle physics through precision measurements. The backgrounds of particles induced by the electron and positron beams will be much higher than in any previous e+e− collider. It is important that these backgrounds be well understood in order to ensure appropriate measures are taken to protect the Belle II detector and…

A new channel to search for dark matter at Belle II

We propose a new “disappearing positron track” channel at Belle II to search for dark matter, in which a positron that is produced at the primary interaction vertex scatters with the electromagnetic

The Belle detector at the KEKB electron-positron collider has collected almost 1 billion Y(4S) events in its decade of operation. Super-KEKB, an upgrade of KEKB is under construction, to increase the

Experimental comparison of 241Am-Be neutron fluence energy distributions.

The results show different energy distributions a priori influenced by the origin of the source, i.e. the manufacturing process, which provides a way to reduce the uncertainty in the dose equivalent rate delivered by such a source.
