ePIC Early Science Report
D. Abbott, N. Abdelrahman, S. Abhijit +781
This Early Science Report from the ePIC Collaboration outlines the compelling physics program achievable during the first years of operation of the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC), pri…
Radiation tolerance tests on key components of the ePIC-dRICH readout card
S. Geminiani, B. R. Achari, N. Agrawal +60
The dual-radiator RICH (dRICH) detector of the ePIC experiment will employ over 300000 SiPM pixels as photosensors, organized into more than 1000 Photon Detection Units. Each PDU i…
Electron identification and hadron discrimination using Cherenkov radiation in air and SiPMs
A. Alici, F. Carnesecchi, B. R. Achari +43
This paper presents a method to identify electrons using the Cherenkov light emitted when a charged particle travels in air and photons are detected with a Silicon PhotoMultiplier…
Measurements of efficiency, timing and response to irradiation for direct detection of charged particles with SiPMs
F. Carnesecchi, B. Sabiu, B. R. Achari +47
In this paper the efficiency of direct charged particle detection with different Silicon PhotoMultiplier (SiPM) sensors has been measured to be close to 100%. Time resolution of ab…
