  • Abstract
    The FOXFIRE project (Feasibility Of a Xenon detector with Frontend for Ionization Real-time Extraction) aims at studying and developing new techniques for the detection of rare processes in elementary particle physics by means of condensed noble gases detectors. Particles in noble liquids release energy in both scintillation light and electron–ion pair formation. The combined usage of this information is being exploited by many research groups. We are studying the extension of these techniques towards high-rate, high-energy (tens of MeV) environments with particular emphasis on real-time event reconstruction.
