Scintillating fibres coupled to silicon photomultipliers (SiPM) provide the unique combination of excellent time measurement of sub-nanoseconds, concurrently minimizing the material budget below one percent radiation length and high segmentation.
Available state of the art technologies of fibres, such as different core materials, claddings, shapes and dimensions, along with their coupling...

A new prototype based on two scCVD layers connected in parallel to the same amplifier has been designed in order to improve the timimng precision of TOTEM - CTPPs Time of Flight detectors. The tests performed during this summer on secondary partycle beams at the CERN North Area will be described in detail, analyzing the dufficulties we had to overcome. The optimization of the front-end...

The high luminosity upgrade of the LHC will result in an average pile-up of about 200 interactions per bunch crossing.
The time information of the particles measured by the detectors can be used to mitigate the effects of pile-up on the reconstructed data.
Several groups are investigating different technologies to achieve a sufficient time resolution for this goal.
The Picosec group of the...

TORCH (Time Of internally Reflected CHerenkov light) is a novel time-of-flight detector, designed to provide π/K/p particle identification up to ~10 GeV/c momentum and beyond. To achieve this, a time resolution of ~15 ps combining information from ~30 detected photons is required over a 10 m flight path. Large areas can be covered with TORCH, nominally up to 30 m2. One such application is for...

To distinguish protons of interest in the piled-up LHC collisions a Time-of Flight (ToF) detector can be used. Main parameters deciding about the detector performance are its time resolution, pixelization and radiation hardness. We present a construction of the ATLAS Forward Proton ToF detector which will be installed in the LHC tunnel at the beginning of the 2017, after years of its...

Silicon Low-Gain Avalanche Detectors (LGAD) are a promising technology for high energy physics experiments where high precision segmented timing sensors are required. This can be used for example in the ATLAS High Granularity Timing Detector (HGTD) or forward experiments like the ATLAS Forward Proton (AFP) and CMS-TOTEM Precision Proton Spectrometer (CT-PPS) for pileup removal.
LGAD from a...

The expected increase of the particle flux at the high luminosity phase of the LHC (HL-LHC) with instantaneous luminosities up to L=7.5 x 10^34 cm^-2 s^-1 will have a severe impact on pile-up. The pile-up is expected to increase on average to 200 interactions per bunch crossing. The reconstruction and trigger performance for electrons, photons as well as jets and transverse missing energy will...

The High Granularity Calorimeter (HGCAL) is the technology choice of the CMS collaboration for the endcap calorimetry upgrade planned to cope with the harsh radiation and pileup environment at the High Luminosity-LHC. The HGCAL is realized as a sampling calorimeter, including an electromagnetic compartment comprising 28 layers of silicon pad detectors with pad areas of 0.5 — 1.0 cm^2...

The LHC has planned a series of upgrades culminating in the High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) which will have
an average luminosity 5-7 times larger than the nominal Run-2 value. The ATLAS Tile Calorimeter (TileCal) will undergo an upgrade to accommodate to the HL-LHC parameters. The TileCal electronics both on- and off-detector will be completely redesigned and a new readout architecture will be...

Calorimeters provide high-resolution energy measurements for particle detection. Muon signals are important for evaluating electronics performance, since they produce a signal that is close to electronic noise values. This work provides a noise RMS analysis for the Demonstrator drawer of the 2016 Tile Calorimeter (TileCal) Test Beam in order to help reconstruct events in a low signal-to-noise...

This talk summarizes the experience of combined test beam of CALICE Analog Hadron Calorimeter with beam telescope, both triggered by TLU. THE AHCAL is primarily designed for auto-trigger operation in short spills of 1 ms every 200 ms, it has been modified to run in continuous beam and to accept the TLU trigger as a trigger validation for the internal auto-trigger, leading to some event...

The TowerJazz 180nm CMOS technology is being considered for the design of monolithic pixel sensors for the ATLAS inner tracker upgrade. Such devices will have to comply with the high rate and high radiation tolerance demands of the inner region of the ATLAS detector. To meet these requirements, a modified process has been developed and is being tested on a prototype chip, the Investigator. The...

Silicon pixel detectors based on high voltage CMOS (HV-CMOS) technologies are currently being developed to investigate the possibility to install them in the upgrade of ATLAS inner tracker (ITk) for high luminosity LHC. HV-CMOS technologies can be used to produce fully monolithic sensors, where no additional front-end chip is required, or capacitively coupled devices (CCPD) where the sensor is...

In the Silicon-On-Insulator CMOS structure the insulator layer is implemented between the handle wafer and the epitaxial silicon layer, which enables the design of a monolithic pixel detector without the need for bump-bonding. Due to the reduced detector volume there is much less particle scattering which results in a better spatial resolution. This is a significant advantage for vertex and...

In antimatter research, the detection and tagging of antiprotons and antihydrogen is usually achieved through the tracking of the annihilation products. In some instances, however, it proves useful to have the antiprotons annihilating directly within the detector volume, with the potential of sensibly improving the resolution on the position determination.
The AEgIS collaboration at CERN aims...

The upgrade of the LHCb experiment, planned for 2019, will transform the experiment to a trigger-less system reading out the full detector at the LHC collision rate and up to $2\times 10^{33}cm^{−2} s^{-1}$ instantaneous luminosity. The Vertex Locator (VELO) is the silicon detector surrounding the interaction region. The upgraded VELO is based on a hybrid pixel system equipped with data...

The ATLAS experiment will replace the entire inner tracking detector with a completely new silicon-only system. 3D silicon pixel sensors are promising candidates for the innermost layers of the Pixel detector due to their excellent radiation hardness and low power dissipation. 3D pixel sensors with 50x50 and 25x100 µm² pixel pitches have been produced at CNM Barcelona and studied by IFAE. The...

For the upgrade of the CMS experiment, the previous pixel detector was replaced by a new, four layer pixel detector during the extended 2016/17 shutdown. By using a new readout chip the detector will be able to operate at instantaneous luminosities of up to 2 x 10^34 cm^-2 s^-1 without significant efficiency losses.
In the pixel detector barrel the 3.8 T magnetic field of the CMS solenoid...

The planned HL-LHC (High Luminosity LHC) in 2025 will necessitate a complete re-design of the current ATLAS Inner Detector (ID) to become the Inner Tracker (ITk), which will consist of both strip and pixelated silicon detectors.For the Technical Design Review (TDR) for the ITK Strips detector, it was required to show beam test results for a fully irradiated module. Consequently, a fully...

During the High-Luminosity phase of the LHC the luminosity will be almost five times larger than the present LHC luminosity. In order to cope with the higher radiation level and the higher pile-up, the ATLAS experiment will need a complete replacement of the current tracking system with an all silicon detector, the Inner Tracker (ITk).
The ATLAS ITk Strip detector will be subjected to a...
