The tracking performance parameters of the ATLAS Transition Radiation Tracker (TRT) as part of the ATLAS Inner Detector are described for different data taking conditions in proton-proton, proton-lead and heavy ion collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). These studies are performed using data collected during the first and the second periods of LHC operation and are compared with Monte...

The main aim of the Sphere-Antarctic project is connected to the fundamental problems of the cosmic ray (CR) physics and general astrophysics — the determination of the energy and mass composition of cosmic ray particles of ultra high and extremely high energies $10^{18}-10^{20}$eV. In the energy region above $6\cdot10^{19}$eV modern experiments (Telescope Array and Pierre Auger Observatory)...

The ICARUS-T600 is the biggest LAr-TPC detector ever realized. The ICARUS Collaboration concluded a very successful, long duration run with the T600 detector at the LNGS underground laboratory, taking data both with the CNGS neutrino beam and with cosmic rays. It performed a sensitive search for anomalous νe appearance as suggested by LSND signal and experimental neutrino anomalies at reactors...

Operating conditions and challenging demands of present and future
accelerator experiments result in new requirements on detector systems.
There are a lot of ongoing developments and searches for new technologies
to improve the properties of existing particle detectors and
to develop devices based on some new principles.
Several detector prototypes were studied in a test beam at
the...

The methods for independent measurements of proton and antiproton beam polarizations at the SPASCHARM experiment at U-70 of IHEP, Protvino, are discussed. The fist approach exploits the single-spin polarization asymmetry AN in elastic pp-scattering in the Coulomb-Nuclear Interference and diffraction kinematic regions. The second approach is based on using the earlier observed large AN...

GlueX is the new experiment in Hall D at Jefferson Lab,
which main main goal is to search for mesons with exotic
quantum numbers using a beam of linearly polarized photons.
The main goal of the pair spectrometer is to determine the
photon beam flux and to measure beam polarization. The
spectrometer reconstructs the energy of a photon by
detecting the electron/positron pair produced by...

Towards the end of LHC Run1, gas leaks were observed in some parts of the Transition Radiation Tracker (TRT) of ATLAS. Due to these leaks, primary Xenon based gas mixture was replaced with Argon based mixture in various parts. Test-beam studies with a dedicated Transition Radiation Detector (TRD) prototype were carried out in 2015 in order to understand transition radiation performance with...
