This paper describes the new concept of the double-LGAD. The goal is to increase the charge at the input of the electronics, keeping a time resolution equal or better than a standard (single) LGAD; this has been realized by adding the charges of two coupled LGADs while still using a single front-end electronics.

This paper presents the measurements on first very thin Ultra Fast Silicon Detectors (UFSDs) produced by Fondazione Bruno Kessler; the data have been collected in a beam test setup at the CERN PS, using beam with a momentum of 12 GeV/c. UFSDs with a nominal thickness of 25 $\mu$m and 35 $\mu$m and an area of 1 $\times$ 1 $\text{mm}^2$ have been considered, together with an additional HPK 50-$\mu$m thick sensor, taken as reference.

The goal of the PolarquEEEst experiment was to measure the cosmic charged particle rate at latitudes greater than 66$^{\circ }$ N, where no systematic and accurate measurements at sea level have ever been performed. A latitude range well above the Arctic Circle was explored on board of a sailboat, up to the unprecedented northernmost value of $82^{\circ }07^{\prime }$ N. [...]

Bologna, DIFA) et al.
The existence of time correlations in detectors separated by distances much larger than the size of the highest energy extensive air showers (EAS) has been long discussed over the years. Several mechanisms have been proposed to justify the existence of such events and, in the last decade, some experiments have also tried to search for correlations on a large scale distance, beyond one hundred kilometers.

The EEE Multigap Resistive Plate Chambers as tracking devices to monitor the stability of a civil building
/ Pinto, C (Enrico Fermi Ctr., Rome) ; Abbrescia, M (Enrico Fermi Ctr., Rome ; INFN, Bari) ; Avanzini, C (Enrico Fermi Ctr., Rome ; INFN, Pisa ; Pisa U.) ; Baldini, L (Enrico Fermi Ctr., Rome ; INFN, Pisa ; Pisa U.) ; Baldini Ferroli, R (Enrico Fermi Ctr., Rome ; INFN, Pisa ; Pisa U.) ; Batignani, L G (Enrico Fermi Ctr., Rome ; Frascati) ; Battaglieri, M (Enrico Fermi Ctr., Rome ; INFN, Genoa ; Genoa U.) ; Boi, S (Enrico Fermi Ctr., Rome ; INFN, Cagliari ; Cagliari U.) ; Bossini, E (Enrico Fermi Ctr., Rome ; INFN, Siena ; Siena U.) ; Carnesecchi, F (Enrico Fermi Ctr., Rome ; INFN, Bologna ; Bologna U.) et al.
Due to their efficiency, tracking capabilities and long-term operational conditions, Multigap Resistive Plate Chambers (MRPC) may be used in a stable location in coincidence with additional detectors fixed to other parts of a civil building, to detect relative displacements of different parts of the building due to long term deformations of the structure. In this contribution we report the results of two different measurements carried out in the Department of Physics and Astronomy of the University of Catania (with three floors above the ground and an underground basement), using one of the MRPC telescopes of the Extreme Energy Events project, in coincidence with two scintillator-based muon telescopes located in various positions inside the building.
