Abstract: The design of the project named CYGNO is presented. CYGNO is a new proposal supported by INFN, the Italian National Institute for Nuclear Physics, within CYGNUs proto-collaboration (CYGNUS-TPC) that aims to realize a distributed observatory in underground laboratories for directional Dark Matter (DM) search and the identification of the coherent neutrino scattering (CNS) from the Sun. CYGNO is one of the first prototypes in the road map to 100-1000 m^3 of CYGNUs and will be located at the National Laboratory of Gran Sasso (LNGS), in Italy, aiming to make significant advances in the technology of single phase gas-only time projection chambers (TPC) for the application to the detection of rare scattering events. In particular it will focus on a read-out technique based on Micro Pattern Gas Detector (MPGD) amplification of the ionization and on the visible light collection with a sub-mm position resolution sCMOS (scientific COMS) camera. This type of readout - in conjunction with a fast light detection - will allow on one hand to reconstruct 3D direction of the tracks, offering accurate sensitivity to the source directionality and, on the other hand, a high particle identification capability very useful to distinguish nuclear recoils.

Abstract: The sun blocks cosmic ray particles from outside the solar system, forming a detectable shadow in the sky map of cosmic rays detected by the ARGO-YBJ experiment in Tibet. Because the cosmic ray particles are positive charged, the magnetic field between the sun and the earth deflects them from straight trajectories and results in a shift of the shadow from the true location of the sun. Here we show that the shift measures the intensity of the field which is transported by the solar wind from the sun to the earth., Comment: 6 papges,3 figures

Abstract: In this paper we report on the observations of TeV gamma ray sources performed by the air shower de- tector ARGO-YBJ. The objects studied in this work are the blazar Markarian 421 and the extended galactic source MGROJ1908+06, monitored during 2 years of operation. Mrk421 has been detected by ARGO-YBJ with a statisti- cal significance of 11 standard deviations. The observed TeV emission was highly variable, showing large enhance- ments of the flux during active periods. The study of the spectral behaviour during flares revealed a positive correla- tion of the hardness with the flux, as already reported in the past by the Whipple telescope, suggesting that this is a long term property of the source. ARGO-YBJ observed a strong correlation between TeV gamma rays and the X-ray flux measured by RXTM/ASM and SWIFT/BAT during the whole period, with a time lag compatible with zero, supporting the one-zone SSC model to describe the emission mechanism. MGROJ1908+06 has been detected by ARGO-YBJ with 5 standard deviation of significance. From our data the source appears extended and the measured extension is ext=0.48 +0.26 0.28 , in agreement with a previous HESS obser- vation. The average flux is in marginal agreement with that reported by MILAGRO, but significantly higher than that ob- tained by HESS, suggesting a possible flux variability. The large field of view ( 2 sr) and the high duty cycle allow a continuous monitoring of the sky in the declination band from 0 to 70 . In this paper we report on the ob- servations of two bright gamma ray sources, performed dur- ing 2 years: the blazar Mrk421 and the extended galactic source MGROJ1908+06.

Abstract: Cosmic ray antiprotons provide an important probe for the study of cosmic-ray propagation in the interstellar space and to investigate the existence of Galactic dark matter. Cosmic rays are hampered by the Moon, therefore a deficit of cosmic rays in its direction is expected (the so-called Moon shadow). The Earth–Moon system acts as a magnetic spectrometer. In fact, due to the geomagnetic field the center of the Moon shifts westward by an amount depending on the primary cosmic ray energy. Paths of primary antiprotons are therefore deflected in an opposite sense in their way to the Earth. This effect allows, in principle, the search of antiparticles in the opposite direction of the observed Moon shadow. The ARGO-YBJ experiment, in stable data taking since November 2007 with an energy threshold of a few 100s of GeV, is observing the Moon shadow with high statistical significance. Using about 1 year data, an upper limit of the p ¯ / p flux ratio in the few-TeV energy region is set to a few percent with a confidence level of 90%.

Abstract: ARGO-YBJ is a full coverage layer of Resistive Plate Counters (RPCs) covering an area of about 5.800 m 2 to be installed at the YangBaJing Laboratory (Tibet, China) at 4.300 m a.s.l . The DAQ system is based on a Central Station which receives the detector information from distributed readout electronics. Data from each RPC are acquired from a Receiver Card which reads out and digitizes the space and time information from 10 pick-up pads and gives out the pad multiplicity for trigger purposes. The Receiver Cards are hosted in Local Stations which Group 12 RPCs. On trigger occurrence, each Local Station sends the collected data to the Central Station. Both the detector and the electronics allow 1 ns accuracy in time measurements. In this work a detailed description of the Local Station and the Trigger System are presented.

Abstract: The measurement of the anisotropies of cosmic ray arrival direction provides important informations on the propagation mechanisms and on the identification of their sources. In this paper we report the observation of anisotropy regions at different angular scales. In particular, the observation of a possible anisotropy on scales between $\sim$ 10 $^{\circ}$ and $\sim$ 30 $^{\circ}$ suggests the presence of unknown features of the magnetic fields the charged cosmic rays propagate through, as well as potential contributions of nearby sources to the total flux of cosmic rays. Evidence of new weaker few-degree excesses throughout the sky region $195^{\circ}\leq$ R.A. $\leq 315^{\circ}$ is reported for the first time., Talk given at 12th TAUP Conference 2011, 5-9 September 2011, Munich, Germany

Abstract: On behalf of the ARGO-YBJ Collaboration Abstract. We report on the search for Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) in the energy range 1 100 GeV in coincidence with the prompt emission detected by satellites, using the Astro- physical Radiation Ground-based Observatory at YangBa- Jing (ARGO-YBJ). With its big active surface ( 6700 m 2 ) and large field of view ( 2 sr) the ARGO-YBJ air shower detector is particularly suitable to detect unpredictable and short duration events such as GRBs. The search has been performed using the single particle technique in time coinci- dence with satellite detections both for single events and for the piling up of all the GRBs in time and in phase. Between November 2004 and June 2010 115 GRBs, de- tected by different satellites (mainly Swift and Fermi), oc- curred within the field of view of ARGO-YBJ. For 94 of these we searched for a counterpart in the ARGO-YBJ data finding no statistically significant emission. Search methods and results are discussed.

Abstract: Cosmic ray physics in the 10 12 –10 15 eV primary energy range is among the main scientific goals of the ARGO-YBJ experiment. The detector, located at the Cosmic Ray Observatory of Yangbajing (Tibet, P.R. China) at 4300 m a.s.l., is a full coverage Extensive Air Shower array consisting of a carpet of Resistive Plate Chambers of about 6000 m 2 . The apparatus layout, performance and location offer a unique possibility to make a deep study of several characteristics of the hadronic component of the cosmic ray flux in an energy window marked by the transition from direct to indirect measurements. In this work we will focus on the experimental results concerning the measurements of the primary cosmic ray energy spectrum and of the proton-air cross-section. The all-particle spectrum has been measured, by using a bayesian unfolding technique, in the 1–100 TeV energy region. The proton-air cross-section has been measured at the same energies, by exploiting the cosmic ray flux attenuation for different atmospheric depths (i.e. zenith angles). The total proton–proton cross-section has then been estimated at center of mass energies between 70 and 500 GeV, where no accelerator data are currently available.

Abstract: Cosmic ray antiprotons provide an important probe for the study of cosmic ray propagation in the interstellar space and to investigate the existence of Galactic dark matter. The ARGO-YBJ experiment is observing the Moon shadow with high statistical significance at an energy threshold of a few hundred GeV. Using all the data collected until November 2009, we set two upper limits on the p ¯ / p flux ratio: 5% at an energy of 1.4 TeV and 6% at 5 TeV with a confidence level of 90%. In the few-TeV range the ARGO-YBJ results are the lowest available, useful to constrain models for antiproton production in antimatter domains.

Abstract: ""ARGO-YBJ is an extensive air shower detector located at the Yangbajing Cosmic Ray Laboratory (4300 ma.s.l., 606 g cm^−2 atmospheric depth, Tibet, China).. It is made by a single layer of Resistive Plate Chambers. (RPCs, total surface ~ 6700 m^2) grouped into 153 units. called “clusters”. The low energy threshold of the experiment is obtained using the ”scaler operation mode”, counting all the particles hitting the detector without reconstruction of the shower size and arrival direction. For each cluster the signals generated by these particles are put in coincidence in a narrow time window (150 ns) and read by four independent. scaler channels, giving the counting rates of channel. >= 1, >= 2, >= 3 and >= 4 hits. The study of these counting. rates pointed out a different behavior of channel >= 1. respect to the higher multiplicity channels: while the MC simulations can account fairly well for the coincident counting. rates, the expectation for channel >= 1 is sensibly less. than the measured value. Moreover, the regression coefficient with the atmospheric pressure for channel >= 1 is also. about half of the value measured for the coincident counting rates: seemingly half of these counts did not cross the atmosphere. Measurements of the natural radioactivity background. in the air of the detector hall and a MC simulation to. estimate its contribution on our counting rates are presented and discussed.""

Abstract: The ARGO-YBJ experiment is an Extensive Air Shower (EAS) array which combines high altitude location and full coverage active area in order to reach low energy threshold at a level of few hundred of GeV. The large field of view (≈ 2 sr ) and the high duty cycle (≥ 90%) allow the continuous monitoring of the sky searching for unknown sources and unpredictable events, such as flares in blazar emissions and high energy Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs). In this paper I will briefly report on the detector performance and on some preliminary results achieved in γ-ray astronomy.

Abstract: Gamma ray source detection above 30 TeV is an encouraging approach for finding galactic cosmic ray origins. All sky survey for gamma ray sources using wide field of view detector is essential for population accumulation for various types of sources above 100 GeV. To target the goals, the ARGO-YBJ experiment has been established. Significant progresses have been made in the experiment. A large air shower detector array in an area of 1 km2 is proposed to boost the sensitivity. Hybrid detections with multi-techniques will allow a good discrimination between different types of primary particles, including photons and protons, thus enable an energy spectrum measurement for individual species. Fluorescence light detector array will extend the spectrum measurement to 100 PeV and higher where the second knee is located. An energy scale determined by balloon experiments at 10 TeV will be propagated to ultra high energy cosmic ray experiments.

Abstract: In 2008 the blazar Markarian 421 entered a very active phase and was one of the brightest sources in the sky at TeV energies, showing frequent flaring episodes. Using the data of ARGO-YBJ, a full coverage air shower detector located at Yangbajing (4300 m a.s.l., Tibet, China), we monitored the source at gamma ray energies E > 0.3 TeV during the whole year. The observed flux was variable, with the strongest flares in March and June, in correlation with X-ray enhanced activity. While during specific episodes the TeV flux could be several times larger than the Crab Nebula one, the average emission from day 41 to 180 was almost twice the Crab level, with an integral flux of (3.6 +-0.6) 10^-11 photons cm^-2 s^-1 for energies E > 1 TeV, and decreased afterwards. This paper concentrates on the flares occurred in the first half of June. This period has been deeply studied from optical to 100 MeV gamma rays, and partially up to TeV energies, since the moonlight hampered the Cherenkov telescope observations during the most intense part of the emission. Our data complete these observations, with the detection of a signal with a statistical significance of 3.8 standard deviations on June 11-13, corresponding to a gamma ray flux about 6 times larger than the Crab one above 1 TeV. The reconstructed differential spectrum, corrected for the intergalactic absorption, can be represented by a power law with an index alpha = -2.1 extending up to several TeV. The spectrum slope is fully consistent with previous observations reporting a correlation between the flux and the spectral index, suggesting that this property is maintained in different epochs and characterizes the source emission processes., Accepted for publication on ApJL

Abstract: The ARGO-YBJ experiment, installed at the Yangbajing Cosmic Ray Laboratory (Tibet, China), at 4300 m a.s.l., is a detector 100x110m2 large, made by a layer of Resistive Plate Counters (RPCs) consisting of a central carpet with almost full coverage extending over an area of about 5.500 m2, surrounded by a guard ring with partial coverage. The high space-time granularity, the full-coverage technique and the high altitude location make this detector a unique device for a detailed study of the atmospheric shower characteristics with an energy threshold of a few hundred GeV. These properties in addition to the large field of view and the high duty cycle enable the ARGO-YBJ experiment to monitor the sky in a continuous way. Results have been reached in a wide variety of fields ranging from Gamma Astronomy, to Solar Physics, from Cosmic Rays composition to hadronic interactions and proton-antiproton ratio. A summary of all these results will be presented and reviewed.

Abstract: Very High Energy (VHE) gamma-astronomy and cosmic ray physics are the main goals of the ARGO-YBJ experiment. The detector is located in Tibet (People's Republic of China) and is a full coverage Extensive Air Shower array consisting of a carpet of Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs). Altitude and full coverage ensure an energy threshold of few hundreds of GeV for primary photons detected in shower mode, while the RPC time resolution gives a good pointing accuracy, thus allowing a high sensitivity to g -ray sources. The large eld of view (FoV) and the high duty-cycle allow the continuous monitor of the Northern sky in the declination band (-10, +70 degrees). The detector operates also in scaler mode in order to look for Gamma Ray Burst (GRB) signals in the range 1-100 GeV in coincidence with GRB detection by satellites. After some detail about the performances of the detector, the present results concerning gamma-astronomy will be presented.

Abstract: In this work the results of p-air cross section measurements with the ARGO-YBJ experiment are reported. The analysis is based on the different flux attenuation for different atmospheric depths (i.e. zenith angles), by exploiting the detector capabilities in selecting the shower development stage by means of the size, hit density and lateral profile measurements. The systematic errors introduced by fluctuations in shower development and heavier primaries have been taken into account. The results can give useful insights on p-air interactions at energies where hadronic interaction models start to give significantly different expectations and allow to infer the p-p total cross section in the energy region ( s = 80 GeV − 500 GeV ) not covered by experiments at accelerators.

Abstract: ARGO‐YBJ is the first EAS detector combining a very high mountain altitude (4300 m a.s.1.) to a “full coverage” detection surface. These features allow ARGO‐YBJ to work with an energy threshold as low as a few hundreds GeV. The high duty cycle and the large field of view (∼2 sr) make ARGO‐YBJ suitable to monitor the gamma ray sky, searching for unknown sources and unexpected events, like Active Galactic Nuclei flaring episodes or high energy Gamma Ray Bursts. In this paper we present the first observations of ARGO‐YBJ concerning gamma ray astronomy, in particular the detection of the Crab Nebula and the blazar Markarian 421 during the 2006 and 2008 outbursts, and the results of a search for Gamma Ray Bursts emission in the GeV energy range using the scaler mode technique.

Abstract: n this paper, the effective area of the ARGO‐YBJ experiment to detect the gamma rays with energy range from 10 GeV to 1 TeV for different incident zenith angles (0,10,20,30,40 degrees) is given respectively. The optimal event selections to search for GRB counterparts with different cutoff energy models (Ecut = 100 GeV and 1 TeV) are studied. Using these selections and their corresponding angular resolutions the searches are done within two hours around the GRB trigger time via different time windows. Finally, the result for the 20 GRBs in the field of view of ARGO between July 2006 and July 2008 is presented, and the fluence upper limit for each GRB is set at 99% confidence level.

Abstract: The ARGO‐YBJ experiment is a full coverage array made of Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs) operated in streamer mode to detect the extensive array showers (EASs). With large field of view (>2sr) and high duty cycle (>90%), the ARGO‐YBJ detector is the right ground‐based apparatus to detect VHE GRBs, while the high altitude (4300 m a.s.l) and scaler working mode enable it to detect GRBs in the GeV region as high energy follow‐up observation of satellites such as SWIFT. If a GRB signal is detected, the four scaler channels, which correspond to different energy thresholds, can provide further information on the energy spectrum and its cut‐off. More than 40 SWIFT GRBs were in ARGO‐YBJ field of view, no significant excess was detected till now.

Abstract: The ARGO-YBJ detector is an extensive air shower array consisting of a carpet of Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs). The main scientific goal of this Chinese-Italian experiment is the observation of very high energy (VHE) gamma-rays from astrophysical sources. High altitude and full coverage ensure a low energy threshold (few hundreds of GeV for gamma-initiated showers). High duty-cycle and large field of view allow a continuous sky survey. The data collected with the central carpet during the detector debugging have been analysed. First results about detector performance, gamma astronomy and cosmic ray physics are presented.

Abstract: The ARGO-YBJ experiment is almost completely installed at the YangBaJing Cosmic Ray Laboratory (4300 m a.s.l., Tibet, P.R. China). The lower energy limit of the detector (E $\sim$ 1 GeV) is reached with the scaler mode, i.e., recording the single particle rate at fixed time intervals. In this technique, due to its high altitude location and large area ($\sim$ 6700 m$^2$), this experiment is the most sensitive among all present and past ground-based detectors. In the energy range under investigation, signals due to local (e.g. solar GLEs) and cosmological (e.g. GRBs) phenomena are expected as significant enhancements of the counting rate over the background. Results on the search for GRBs in coincidence with satellite detections are presented., Proc. of "The Multi-Messenger Approach To High Energy Gamma-Ray Sources" Workshop, Barcelona, July 4-7, 2006

Abstract: Very high energy gamma ray astronomy is one of the scientific goals of the ARGO-YBJ experiment. The detector, which is located in Tibet (China) at 4300 m a.s.l., is a full coverage Extensive Air Shower array consisting of a carpet of Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs) of about 7000m 2 . The high altitude and the full coverage ensure a very low energy threshold (few hundreds of GeV for primary photons), while the detector time resolution ( σ t ≃ 1 ns ) gives a good pointing accuracy, thus allowing a high sensitivity to γ -ray sources, with a field of view of more than 2 sr and a duty cycle close to 100%. The detector layout, performance and location, offer a unique possibility to make also a deep study of several characteristics of the hadronic component of the cosmic ray flux up to energies of several hundreds of TeV. In particular, the topological structure of the shower, the lateral distribution, the energy spectrum and the space and time flux modulations can be measured with high sensitivity. Moreover, the use of a full coverage detector with a high space granularity gives detailed images of the shower front, that can be used to test different hypotheses on the cosmic ray interaction model, the shower development in the atmosphere and particle physics at very high energies. In this work the general layout of the detector and its performance will be described, together with the first results coming from the analysis of a data sample collected with a relevant fraction of the apparatus that is already in continuous data taking.

Abstract: Intrinsic differences in the processes involved in the development of electromagnetic and hadronic showers in the atmosphere have been evidenced by means of a careful analysis of the event image given by the ARGO-YBJ detector. The images have been analyzed at different length scales and their multifractal nature has been studied. The use of the multiscale approach together with a properly designed and trained Artificial Neural Network, allowed us to obtain a good gamma/hadron discrimination power. If confirmed by further studies on different event cathegories, this result would allow to nearly double the detector sensitivity to gamma ray sources., 10 pages, 5 figures, Presented at the "Incontro Nazionale di Astrofisica delle Alte Energie", Rome 15-16 May 2003

Abstract: In the first six months of 2013 the KLOE detector has been upgraded inserting new detector layers in the inner part of the apparatus, around the interaction region. The long shutdown has been used to undertake a general consolidation program aimed at improving the Φ-Factory operation stability and reliability and, in turn, the collider uptime. In this context several systems have been revised and upgraded, new diagnostic elements have been installed, some critical components have been modified and the interaction region mechanical support structure design has been developed to improve its mechanical stability and to deal with the weight added by the new detector layers., Proceedings of the 5th Int.

Abstract: The design of a high luminosity Tau/Charm Factory has been accomplished by the INFN-LNF Laboratory in Frascati in collaboration with the Consortium Nicola Cabibbo Laboratory. The target luminosity is 10³⁵ cm⁻² ses^{−1} at 4.6 GeV in the center of mass. This design is a natural evolution of the SuperB B-Factory, that was aimed to be built in the Rome Tor Vergata University campus as an Italian Flagship Project. The Tau/Charm design keeps all the features that made SuperB a state-of-the art accelerator, such as the “large Piwinski angle and crab waist sextupoles” collision scheme, the super squeezed beams, and the polarized electron beam. As a plus, it will be possible to collect data at high luminosity in a large energy range (2 to 4.6 GeV c. m.), with a peak luminosity target of 10³⁴ cm⁻² ses^{−1} at 2 GeV. The possibility to extend the Linac for a SASE-FEL facility is also taken into account. A Conceptual Design Report* was published in September 2013. In this paper the design principles and the project features are reviewed., Proceedings of the 5th Int. Particle Accelerator Conf., IPAC2014, Dresden, Germany

Abstract: ARGO-YBJ is a full coverage EAS array consisting of a ∼ 74×78 m2 layer of RPCs (Resistive Plate Counters). ARGO-YBJ will provide a detailed spacetime picture of the shower front allowing to face a wide range of fundamental issues including the study of gamma-rays (100 GeV−10 TeV) from point sources. A detailed simulation has been performed to estimate the angular resolution and the sensitivity of the apparatus. We present the results obtained and (as an example) the sensitivity of ARGO-YBJ to detect a known gamma rays source (CRAB).

Abstract: The ARGO-YBJ detector has been completely installed at the YangBaJing High Altitude Cosmic Ray Observatory (Tibet, China), at 4300 m a.s.l., and is taking data with a trigger rate of about 4 kHz and a dead time of about 4%. The ARGO-YBJ Data Acquisition System is based on a two-layer readout architecture implementing an event-driven data collection. In order to sustain a high data throughput and have a good readout efficiency or keep the dead time as low as possible, the decoupling FIFOs have been housed on the data packet processing modules. In this paper, the hardware solution to monitor the DAQ system and to track in real-time anomalous data transfers is presented.

Abstract: ""The full coverage extensive air shower detector ARGO-YBJ, located in Tibet at 4300 m of altitude, has monitored the sky at gamma ray energy E>0.6TeV in the declination band from -10° to 70°. In 424 days the Crab Nebula and Mrk421 have been detected with a significance, respectively, of 7.0 and 8.0 standard deviations. The analysis of the cosmic ray background in the same sky band, has revealed the existence of a significant excess of the cosmic ray flux in two localized regions of angular size 10°30°, confirming previous indications. The origin of such excesses is still unexplained. Concerning the gamma ray sources, the measured spectrum of the Crab Nebula is dN\\\/dE=(3.7±0.8)×10-11E-2.67±0.25photonscm-2s-1TeV-1, in agreement with other experiments. During 2008 the observed Mrk421 flux was highly variable, with the strongest flares in MarchJune, in good correlation with X-ray data. One of the most intense flares occurred in the first half of June and has been deeply studied by different detectors in the energy range from optical to 100 MeV gamma rays, but only partially up to TeV energies, since the moonlight hampered the Cherenkov telescope measurements during the second and most intense part of the emission. Our data complete these observations, with the detection of a signal of intensity of about 7 Crab units on June 1113, with a statistical significance of 4.2 standard deviations. The observed flux is consistent with a prediction made in the framework of the Synchrotron Self-Compton model, in which the flare is caused by a rapid acceleration of leptons in the jet. ""
