Radiological characterisation for the clearance of burnable waste produced at CERN
/ Harbron, Richard (CERN) ; Charousset, Renaud (CERN) ; Dumont, Gerald (CERN) ; Magistris, Matteo (CERN) ; Menaa, Nabil (CERN) ; Giunio Pisano, Paolo (CERN) ; Theis, Christian (CERN)
Burnable waste produced at CERN during upgrading, maintenance and dismantling campaigns may be
contaminated with radioactive nuclides produced through activation of accelerator components. Here, we present a methodology for the radiological characterisation of burnable waste, which takes into account the wide
range of potential activation conditions (beam energy, material composition, location, irradiation and waiting
time). [...]

Experimental setup for Weak Interaction Studies with Radioactive ion-beams WISArD
/ Atanasov, D (CERN) ; Cresto, F (LPC, Caen) ; Nies, L (CERN) ; Pomorski, M (LP2I, Bordeaux) ; Versteegen, M (LP2I, Bordeaux) ; Alfaurt, P (LP2I, Bordeaux) ; Araujo-Escalona, V (Leuven U.) ; Ascher, P (LP2I, Bordeaux) ; Blank, B (LP2I, Bordeaux) ; Daudin, L (LP2I, Bordeaux) et al.
The article describes the commissioning and technical development of the Weak Interaction Studies with 32Ar Decay (WISArD) experiment, installed at the radioactive ion-beam facility ISOLDE/CERN. The experiment aims to extend the present limits on scalar and tensor currents in the weak interaction and hence search for physics beyond the Standard Model. [...]

Analysis of inhomogeneities in Nb$_{3}$Sn wires by combined SEM and SHPM and their impact on J $_{c}$ and T $_{c}$

Abstract
We demonstrate the combined use of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and scanning Hall probe microscopy (SHPM) to analyse inhomogeneities in Nb3Sn wires. Inhomogeneities of the A15 phase in Nb3Sn sub-elements of a Ti-alloyed Restacked Rod Process wire and a Ta-alloyed Powder-In-Tube wire are investigated. [...]

Safety and reliability assessment of CO$_2$ refrigeration system for underground applications below -50 °C
/ Barroca, Pierre (CERN) ; Verlaat, Bart (CERN) ; Hafner, Armin (Norwegian U. Sci. Tech.) ; Blust, Stefanie (CERN) ; Hulek, Wojciech (CERN) ; Zwalinski, Lukasz (CERN) ; Teixeira, Daniella (CERN)
A new CO$_2$ refrigeration concept is evaluated to cool the ATLAS and CMS experiments installed close to 100 m underground, at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. The first prototype unit produced to validate the conceptual design and to assess safety and reliability of the system has been commissioned. [...]

Capture of dark matter particles by a galaxy in the case of a bimodal distribution of their velocities
/ Durrer, Ruth (Geneva U., CAP ; Geneva U., Dept. Theor. Phys.) ; Parnovsky, Serge (Geneva U., CAP ; Geneva U., Dept. Theor. Phys. ; Taras Shevchenko U. ; CERN) ; Parnowski, Aleksei (Natl. Acad. of Sci. of Ukraine)
We have analyzed the rate of capture of dark matter (DM) particles by the galaxy in the case of the existence of two different types of DM or a bimodal velocity distribution function for DM. It is shown that, in addition to the scenario considered in our previous work which is based on the assumption of an unimodal distribution, more complex scenarios are possible in which the transition to the state of intense capture and/or exit from it can occur in two stages.

Instrumented baffle for the Advanced Virgo input mode cleaner end mirror

A novel instrumented baffle surrounding the suspended end mirror in the input mode cleaner cavity of the Virgo interferometer was installed in spring 2021. Since then, the device has been regularly operated in the experiment and the obtained results indicate a good agreement with simulations of the stray light inside the optical cavity. [...]
