Fast silicon detectors as proton therapy beam monitors
A. Bellora, L. Grzanka, R. McNulty +7
Low Gain Avalanche Detectors (LGADs) are fast silicon sensors with potential for high-resolution proton beam monitoring. In this work, we investigated their response in a 60 MeV pr…
Performance of a low gain avalanche detector in a medical linac and characterisation of the beam profile
Tommaso Isidori, Patrick McCavana, Brendan McClean +5
Low gain avalanche detectors can measure charged particle fluences with high speed and spatial precision, and are a promising technology for radiation monitoring and dosimetry. A d…
Mapping the material in the LHCb vertex locator using secondary hadronic interactions
M. Alexander, W. Barter, A. Bay +63
Precise knowledge of the location of the material in the LHCb vertex locator (VELO) is essential to reducing background in searches for long-lived exotic particles, and in identify…
The HeRSCheL detector: high-rapidity shower counters for LHCb
K. Carvalho Akiba, F. Alessio, N. Bondar +19
The HeRSCheL detector consists of a set of scintillating counters, designed to increase the coverage of the LHCb experiment in the high-rapidity regions on either side of the main…
Performance of the LHCb Vertex Locator
LHCb VELO Group, R. Aaij, A. Affolder +101
The Vertex Locator (VELO) is a silicon microstrip detector that surrounds the proton-proton interaction region in the LHCb experiment. The performance of the detector during the fi…
