Showcasing Innovation: CAEN at the Forefront of Nuclear Science in Yokohama

19/11/2025 by CAEN

The IEEE NSS MIC RTSD 2025 has successfully concluded in Yokohama, Japan, reaffirming its role as one of the most prestigious international events dedicated to nuclear instrumentation, medical imaging, and radiation detection technologies.
CAEN SpA participated alongside partners Nuclear Instruments and Weeroc, presenting advanced solutions for detector electronics and readout systems at booths #43, #44 and #45. The event provided an exceptional platform for engaging with the global scientific community and showcasing cutting-edge innovations.

Among the most notable innovations presented by CAEN were the new high-voltage power supply modules N2470 and N2470ET, designed to deliver great performance and reliability for complex detector applications. These multi-channel solutions integrate an onboard ARM processor for enhanced control and diagnostics, and they also allow software-level polarity switching.
Equally significant was the introduction of the DTL Digitizer Series, including models 2730, 2745, and 2751. These state-of-the-art waveform digitizers offer enhanced capabilities for accurate time and energy measurements, providing researchers with powerful tools for nuclear and particle physics investigations.

CAEN extends its appreciation to all professionals and researchers who visited the booths and contributed to meaningful discussions on the future of nuclear science and technology. The company looks forward to continuing its commitment to innovation and excellence at upcoming international events.

CAEN Powering Hyper-Kamiokande’s Neutrino Detector

09/07/2025 by CAEN

The Hyper-Kamiokande (Hyper-K) experiment in Japan is an advanced neutrino observatory designed to explore fundamental physics questions, including neutrino oscillations, proton decay, and astrophysical neutrino sources. Located deep underground to reduce interference from cosmic rays, Hyper-Kamiokande consists of a massive tank filled with ultrapure water.
When neutrinos interact with the water molecules, they produce Cherenkov radiation, which is detected by an array of over 400 large photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) for precise measurement of neutrino events.

To meet the specific demands of this experimental setup, CAEN has provided a reliable underwater power supply system composed of 911 Low Voltage and High Voltage boards. The
Low Voltage boards supply stable power to the High Voltage modules and digitizers, supporting both the power needs of the PMTs and data acquisition electronics. The High Voltage system, the A7026HK module (24 channels, 2.6 kV/500 μA each), is designed specifically to power the PMTs that capture Cherenkov light, ensuring a consistent and reliable signal.

Each component is engineered for high reliability with redundancy across both the high and low voltage systems. This redundancy ensures that even if a single component fails, the system remains operational, which is essential given the tank’s human-inaccessible environment. CAEN’s robust design also allows for extended maintenance intervals, a critical requirement for the remote and submerged setup of the Hyper-K detector, enhancing the stability and operational longevity of this groundbreaking experiment.

CAEN Winter School 2025

10/02/2025 by CAEN

As every year, CAEN SpA organized the CAEN Winter School, held from February 2nd to 5th at its headquarters in Viareggio, Italy. The event was organized in collaboration with the IMSci-Nu Master’s program at Aix-Marseille University and the “Excellence Nucléaire Sud” project.

The Winter School offered a unique blend of theoretical lectures and hands-on workshops, focusing on radiation detectors and nuclear measurement techniques. Participants had the opportunity to deepen their understanding and refine their practical skills in key areas, including nuclear waste characterization, Decommissioning and Dismantling (D&D), CAEN digitizers, and Neutron-Gamma Discrimination.

By combining cutting-edge theoretical knowledge with real-world applications, the event provided an immersive learning experience, allowing attendees to work with advanced nuclear instrumentation. The enthusiastic participation and collaborative spirit of all involved contributed to making the Winter School a resounding success.

CAEN is now part of The European Industrial Alliance

24/01/2025 by CAEN

CAEN is now part of The European Industrial Alliance on Small Modular Reactors (SMRs)

We are thrilled to announce that CAEN SpA has joined The European Industrial Alliance on Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), which aims to speed up the development and deployment of SMRs in Europe by the early 2030s. SMRs are advanced nuclear reactors that provide low-carbon electricity and heat with enhanced safety and a smaller footprint. The alliance unites industry leaders, financial institutions, researchers, and policymakers to build a strong nuclear supply chain, support SMR projects, and overcome investment barriers. This initiative is a significant step towards integrating nuclear technologies into industrial applications and aiding Europe’s decarbonization efforts.

This marks a significant milestone for our company as we join an elite network of organizations dedicated to shaping the future of the European energy landscape. As part of the Alliance, we have the opportunity to contribute to strategic Technical Working Groups (TWGs) addressing key topics such as:

  • Ensuring a smooth collaboration with Industrial Applications.
  • Building a comprehensive and credible R&D&I roadmap to secure an on-time deployment of SMR in Europe.
  • Support the development of a comprehensive strategy for the Supply Chain.
  • Plays a key role in Nuclear Safety and Safeguards through a standardized and versatile transition.
