Research Activities

The lab is committed to the Research and development of an ultralight drift chamber as the main tracking device of an experiment at future leptonic colliders, designed to provide efficient tracking, high precision momentum measurement and excellent particle identification. The activity is supported by the future collider program at INFN, CERN and IHEP, along the path defined by the European Strategy for Particle Physics. Drift chambers prototypes are gas detector designed to cope with high transparency, in terms of radiation lengths, obtained by using a novel approach adopted for the wiring and assembly procedures. Particle identification capabilities are reached by using a cluster counting technique, expected to provide a two-times better particle separation with respect to the traditional method based on energy loss per unit length.
The lab is equipped with instrumentation for powering gas detectors, with gas supply unit and monitoring station, with a soldering station and a wiring machine, with a laser alignment setup and with computers for mechanical design and data analysis.

Services

RECAS-Bari Laboratory: provides scientific calculation and data storage services

Batch services are particularly suitable for data analysis of high energy physics experiments conducted in the Inter-University Department of Physics, simulations of experimental apparatus used in high energy physics experiments, applications of theoretical physics concerning in particular the fluid dynamics, biodiversity analysis, phylogenetic analysis, NGS, molecular dynamics simulation, analysis and study of clinical images in the field of medical physics, analysis and study of satellite...

The provision of on-demand virtual machines or clusters, or personal storage is carried out through the cloud infrastructure. The HPC cluster is particularly suitable for performing parallel jobs or requiring the use of graphics accelerators and / or low latency networks. The laboratory is able to provide data storage services both on disk and on magnetic tape.
