Future Detectors for the European XFEL

18 Sept 2023, 09:00 → 19 Sept 2023, 23:30 Europe/Berlin

XHQ 1.173 (European XFEL GmbH)

Overview:

The European XFEL facility produces brilliant X-ray flashes with unprecedented brilliance and pulse duration. To fully exploit the capabilities of the European XFEL, the scientific community demands increasingly advanced and sophisticated detectors. The workshop "Future Detectors for the European XFEL" will take place at the European XFEL premises in Schenefeld, Germany on September 18-19, 2023, with the aim of identifying possible technology solutions that can be deployed in detector development for future upgrades of the scientific instruments and of the facility within a timeline of 7-10 years.

The workshop will bring together detector developers to discuss novel techniques that can leverage the new challenges of the facility. These include operation with very hard X-rays (>30-40 keV) and MHz detector operation in burst mode at high pulse intensity.

 

Workshop organizing committee:

Prof. Dr. Matteo Porro (EuXFEL)

Dr. Marco Ramilli  (EuXFEL)

Dr. Jolanta Sztuk-Dambietz  (EuXFEL)

Dr. Monica Turcato (EuXFEL)

The workshop will start on Monday 18th at 9 am and end on Tuesday 19th at approximately 5 pm.
