May 21-26, 2017 From May 21-26, 20117, Professor Francesco Arneodo and some of his Astroparticle Lab members attended TIPP2017. TIPP2017, held in Beijing (China) from 21st to 26th of May, is one of the most important events of the year: it concerns of instrumentation, detectors, data acquisition systems, innovation and techniques in particle physics. It’s was the […]

May 8, 2017 Today we got another full dewar and Valerio devised a cleverer way to place the support of the metal discs so that they are touching the box. We start operations again just before lunch, and when we reach – 56C, we realise that the contact between box and disks has been lost […]
