A High-resolution Scintillating Fiber Tracker With Silicon Photomultiplier Array Readout

Bastian Beischer, Henning Gast, Roman Greim +6

We present prototype modules for a tracking detector consisting of multiple layers of 0.25 mm diameter scintillating fibers that are read out by linear arrays of silicon photomulti…

Indirect dark matter search with the balloon-borne PEBS detector

H. Gast, R. Greim, T. Kirn +2

A precision measurement of the cosmic-ray positron spectrum may help to solve the puzzle of the nature of dark matter. Pairwise annihilation of neutralinos, predicted by some super…

Silicon photomultiplier arrays - a novel photon detector for a high resolution tracker produced at FBK-irst, Italy

R. Greim, H. Gast, T. Kirn +8

A silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) array has been developed at FBK-irst having 32 channels and a dimension of 8.0 x 1.1 mm^2. Each 250 um wide channel is subdivided into 5 x 22 recta…
