    A method to classify neutrino events according to their completeness

    No full text
    Complete neutrino events are separated from the total sample with a discriminant analysis in a many-dimensional space described in the text. Two new powerful variables are found which discriminate with high efficiency and tag the event type as far as the completeness is concerned

    A statistical approach to hadronic shower generation

    No full text
    A principal component analysis is applied to a sample of hadronic showers. Five “factors” are determined which enable us to generate the shower's longitudinal profile with negligible computing tim

    An environmental safe gas mixture for resistive plate chambers operated at low pressure

    No full text
    A detailed study of the performance of resistive plate chambers, operated in streamer mode and filled with ozone safe gas mixtures, is reported; efficiency, time resolution, strip multiplicity, etc., have been measured both at atmospheric and at low pressure, to simulate a possible use of these detectors at high altitud

    Resistive plate chambers performances at low pressure

    No full text
    The performance at low pressure of 2 mm gap bakelite Resistive Plate Chambers, operated in streamer mode with a gas mixture of 58% Ar, 40% n-butane and 2% CF3Br, have been studied. Efficiency, time resolution and strip multiplicity appear satisfactory up to pressures of about 600 mbar, corresponding to altitudes around 4000 m a.s.1
