 Characterization of plastic scintillators equipped with SiPM for the next generation of satellites for the study of cosmic radiation / Serini, D (Bari U. ; INFN, Bari) ; De La Torre Luque, P (Bari U. ; INFN, Bari) ; Di Venere, L (INFN, Bari) ; Fusco, P (Bari U. ; INFN, Bari) ; Gargano, F (INFN, Bari) ; Giordano, F (Bari U. ; INFN, Bari) ; Loparco, F (Bari U. ; INFN, Bari) ; Loporchio, S (Bari U. ; INFN, Bari) ; Mazziotta, M N (INFN, Bari) The next generation of satellite experiments for the studies of cosmic radiation will be equipped with plastic scintillators read-out by Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs), to be used as anti-coincidence detectors for gamma rays or for the identification of charged nuclei. For these applications, a high detection efficiency is required in order to ensure a high background rejection for the gamma-ray identification.

 Signal Analysis for Automated Diagnostic Applied to LHC Cryogenics / Martensson, Kurt (CERN) ; Bradu, Benjamin (CERN) ; Ferlin, Gerard (CERN) The operation of the LHC at CERN is highly dependent on its associated infrastructure to operate properly, such as its cryogenic system where many conditions must be fulfilled for superconducting magnets and RF cavities. In 2018, the LHC cryogenic system caused 172 hours of accelerator downtime (out of 5760 running hours).

 CMS track reconstruction performance during Run 2 and developments for Run 3 / Elmetenawee, Walaa (Bari U. ; INFN, Bari) /CMS Collaboration An efficient and precise reconstruction of charged-particle tracks is crucial for the overall performance of the CMS experiment. During Run 2 of LHC, significant upgrades were made to the track reconstruction algorithms in order to accommodate for the high pileup environment and the installation of an upgraded pixel detector in 2017.

 Real-time selection using flavour-tagging algorithms in ATLAS / Varni, C (INFN, Genoa ; Genoa U.) /ATLAS Collaboration The physics program covered by the ATLAS Collaboration is broad and also includes final states characterized by the presence of $b$-hadrons in their final states. Specialized triggers that exploit flavour tagging techniques, the $b$-jet triggers, have been developed for targeting these topologies.

 ATLAS Pixel Detector during Run 2 / Rossini, Lorenzo (Milan U. ; INFN, Milan) Silicon pixel detectors are at the core of the current and planned upgrade of the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). During Run 2 of LHC the detector had to sustain many challenges in order to keep the performances and quality of data taking constant in time, against the increasing instantaneous luminosity, increasing pile-up, and radiation damage.
