Cryogenic detectors have become a great asset to fundamental science including astrophysics, particle physics, and materials science: These detectors promise extremely low noise as well as high efficiency and an unprecedented energy resolution compared to conventional semiconductor sensors. They are well suited for the detection of very low energy particles and are ideal sensors for searching...
LHCb experiment plays an important role in the study of rare decays of hadrons with heavy quarks, and in the search for interactions and particles beyond the Standard Model.
Upgrade II of the experiment would enable data taking during the high luminosity phase. A hybrid tracking detector, consisting of scintillating fibers in the outer region and HV-CMOS pixel sensors in the inner region is...
The current or planned upgrades of most radiation sources – for Free Electron Lasers towards faster continuous operation at a few 100kHz, and for synchrotron rings towards the diffraction limit, require a new generation of detectors to profit from this step. For diffraction limited sources like Petra IV an increase in brightness by two orders of magnitude is expected compared to Petra III. To...
Using the example of the future ALICE vertex detector (ITS3),
this talk aims at providing an overview on cutting-edge developments at
the front of Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (MAPS). These CMOS pixel
sensors offer mechanical flexibility and a low power consumption, while
maintaining excellent hit detection efficiency and spatial resolution.
Featuring wafer-scale, stitched...
LUXE (Laser Und XFEL Experiment) is a new experiment that is part of the DESY high-energy physics on-site program. It aims to combine a high-intensity optical laser with the 16.5 GeV electron beam of the European XFEL to explore the uncharted terrain of Quantum Electrodynamics (QED) at the strong-field frontier.
The experiment will measure the spectra of electrons, positrons, and photons...
FLASH radiation therapy is a new cancer treatment technique. It provides the same tumour control as conventional radiation therapy but shows increased tissue sparing. Tumours are irradiated with the same dose but with increased dose rate (>> 40 Gy/s) compared to conventional dose rate (0.05 Gy/s).
A new R&D facility for radiation therapy studies, called FLASHlab@PITZ, is being setup at the...
In preparation of the full experiment, a system test of the ATLAS ITk strips end-cap with up to 12 petals is taking place at DESY. All aspects of the full detector setup will be tested (mechanics, powering, cooling, readout).
In this presentation the setup of the system test and first tests of fully loaded petals in it will be shown.
