Effect of increased DCR on the detection of minimum-ionizing particles with SiPMs
Katjana Neumann, Massimiliano Antonello, Lukas Brinkmann +2
Radiation damage to a Silicon Photomultiplier (SiPM), as it occurs during the lifetime of the planned CMS high-granularity calorimeter detector, increases the dark current and degr…
Defects and acceptor removal in 60Co γ-irradiated p-type silicon
Anja Himmerlich, Núria Castelló-Mor, Esteban Currás-Rivera +11
Boron-doped silicon detectors used in high radiation environments like the future HL-LHC show a degradation in device performance due to the radiation induced deactivation of the a…
Is the gain-voltage dependence of SiPMs linear?
M. Antonello, L. Brinkmann, E. Garutti +2
The gain-voltage dependence for SiPMs from V. Chmill et al., Study of the breakdown voltage of SiPMs, is reanalyzed and a non-linearity at the sub-percent level is observed. Simula…
Precision determination of the track-position resolution of beam telescopes
M. Antonello, L. Eikelmann, E. Garutti +4
Beam tests using tracking telescopes are a standard method for determining the spatial resolution of detectors. This requires the precise knowledge of the position resolution of be…
