Timing performance of the Timepix4 front-end

K. Heijhoff, K. Akiba, R. Ballabriga +7

A characterisation of the Timepix4 pixel front-end with a strong focus on timing performance is presented. Externally generated test pulses were used to probe the per-pixel time-to…

Timing performance of the LHCb VELO Timepix3 Telescope

K. Heijhoff, K. Akiba, M. van Beuzekom +13

We performed a detailed study of the timing performance of the LHCb VELO Timepix3 Telescope with a 180 GeV/c mixed hadron beam at the CERN SPS. A twofold method was developed to im…
