Optical readout of MPGDs with solid wavelength shifters
F. M. Brunbauer, A. Cools, M. Cortesi +20
Optical readout of MicroPattern Gaseous Detectors (MPGDs) makes use of the high granularity of imaging sensors to achieve good spatial resolution for radiation imaging and particle…
Advances in photocathode development for PICOSEC Micromegas precise-timing detectors
M. Lisowska, F. Guerra, A. Gurpinar +46
The PICOSEC Micromegas detector is a~precise-timing gaseous detector that combines a Cherenkov radiator, a~semi-transparent photocathode and a Micromegas amplification stage, targe…
μRWELL-PICOSEC: Precision Timing with Resistive Micro-Well Detector
Kondo Gnanvo
The PICOSEC detector concept uses a micro-pattern gaseous detector (MPGD) amplification structure combined with a Cerenkov radiator coated with a semi-transparent photocathode to p…
Performance Optimization and Characterization of 7-pad Resistive PICOSEC Micromegas Detectors
A. Kallitsopoulou, R. Aleksan, S. Aune +49
We present a comprehensive characterization of resistive PICOSEC Micromegas detector prototypes, tested under identical conditions, constant drift gap, field configurations, and ph…
A Novel Diamond-like Carbon based photocathode for PICOSEC Micromegas detectors
X. Wang, R. Aleksan, Y. Angelis +48
The PICOSEC Micromegas (MM) detector is a precise timing gaseous detector based on a MM detector operating in a two-stage amplification mode and a Cherenkov radiator. Prototypes eq…
Reflectivity Studies and Production of New Flat Mirrors for the Cherenkov Threshold Detectors at CERN
J. Buesa Orgaz, M. van Dijk, D. Banerjee +13
Cherenkov threshold detectors (XCET) are used for identifying particles in the experimental areas at CERN. These detectors observe Cherenkov light emitted by charged particles trav…
