Abstract

Raman spectra of as-grown and reduced (or annealed) Er:LiNbO3 crystals, which have different cut orientations, varied Li/Nb ratio, and different Er-doping levels of 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 1.0, and 2.0 mol%, were recorded at room temperature over a wavenumber range of 50–1000 cm-1 by use of backward scattering geometries. The spectra are assigned on the basis of their Raman scattering features and previous relevant work. A weak but well-resolved peak around 633 cm-1 appears in the E(TO) spectra that were recorded under the configuration of X(ZY)X̄(for an X-cut sample) or Y(ZX)Ȳ(for a Y-cut sample) for all crystals studied. The appearance of this peak in the E(TO) spectrum provides further evidence for a previous attribution of this peak to E(TO9) mode. Some additional peaks distributed in the low wavenumber region ranging from 101–137 cm-1 are attributed to Er3+ fluorescence with a wavelength range of 490.41–491.3 nm. The reduction effects include a significant drop of the Raman scattering intensity and a slight narrowing instead of a broadening in the linewidth. The reduction procedure hardly affects the spectral shape and the wavenumber of most of the phonons. The anneal effect is similar to the reduction effect and both effects are not as obvious as the vapor transport equilibration (VTE) effect. In addition, the present Raman scattering result provides evidence for our earlier reported individual result on light-induced diffraction from strongly reduced Er:LiNbO3 crystals.

Abstract

The DArk Matter Particle Explorer (DAMPE), a satellite-based cosmic ray and gamma-ray detector, was launched on December 17, 2015, and began its on-orbit operation on December 24, 2015. In this work we document the on-orbit calibration procedures used by DAMPE and report the calibration results of the Plastic Scintillator strip Detector (PSD), the Silicon-Tungsten tracKer-converter (STK), the BGO imaging calorimeter (BGO), and the Neutron Detector (NUD). The results are obtained using Galactic cosmic rays, bright known GeV gamma-ray sources, and charge injection into the front-end electronics of each sub-detector. The determination of the boundary of the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA), the measurement of the live time, and the alignments of the detectors are also introduced. The calibration results demonstrate the stability of the detectors in almost two years of the on-orbit operation.

Abstract

The DArk Matter Particle Explorer (DAMPE), one of the four scientific space science missions within the framework of the Strategic Pioneer Program on Space Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, is a general purpose high energy cosmic-ray and gamma-ray observatory, which was successfully launched on December 17th, 2015 from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center. The DAMPE scientific objectives include the study of galactic cosmic rays up to $\sim 10$ TeV and hundreds of TeV for electrons/gammas and nuclei respectively, and the search for dark matter signatures in their spectra. In this paper we illustrate the layout of the DAMPE instrument, and discuss the results of beam tests and calibrations performed on ground. Finally we present the expected performance in space and give an overview of the mission key scientific goals., 45 pages, including 29 figures and 6 tables. Published in Astropart. Phys

Abstract

High energy cosmic ray electrons plus positrons (CREs), which lose energy quickly during their propagation, provide an ideal probe of Galactic high-energy processes and may enable the observation of phenomena such as dark-matter particle annihilation or decay. The CRE spectrum has been directly measured up to $\sim 2$ TeV in previous balloon- or space-borne experiments, and indirectly up to $\sim 5$ TeV by ground-based Cherenkov $\gamma$-ray telescope arrays. Evidence for a spectral break in the TeV energy range has been provided by indirect measurements of H.E.S.S., although the results were qualified by sizeable systematic uncertainties. Here we report a direct measurement of CREs in the energy range $25~{\rm GeV}-4.6~{\rm TeV}$ by the DArk Matter Particle Explorer (DAMPE) with unprecedentedly high energy resolution and low background. The majority of the spectrum can be properly fitted by a smoothly broken power-law model rather than a single power-law model. The direct detection of a spectral break at $E \sim0.9$ TeV confirms the evidence found by H.E.S.S., clarifies the behavior of the CRE spectrum at energies above 1 TeV and sheds light on the physical origin of the sub-TeV CREs., Comment: 18 pages, 6 figures, Nature in press, doi:10.1038/nature24475
