Neutron irradiation damage on Silicon Photomultipliers and electrical annealing studies for the CBM RICH detector
Jesús Peña-Rodríguez, Jörg Förtsch, Christian Pauly +1
Limited radiation hardness is the primary drawback to implementing Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs) in high-luminosity environments, such as the Compressed Baryonic Matter (CBM) ex…
A simulation framework for SiPMs
J. Peña-Rodríguez, J. Förtsch, C. Pauly +1
We present a Python module for simulating Silicon Photo-Multipliers, Avalanche Photo-Diodes, and Multi-Pixel Photon Counters. This module allows users to perform noise analyses: Da…
Characterization and on-field performance of the MuTe Silicon Photomultipliers
J. Sánchez-Villafrades, J. Peña-Rodríguez, H. Asorey +1
The Muon Telescope is a muography experiment for imaging volcanoes in Colombia. It consists of a scintillator tracking system and a water Cherenkov detector used for particle depos…
Modeling and simulation of the R5912 photomultiplier for the LAGO project
S. Hernández-Barajas, Y. León-Carreño, J. Peña-Rodríguez +2
We present the results of modeling and simulating the Hamamatsu R5912 photomultiplier tube that is used in most of the sites of the Latin American Giant Observatory (LAGO). The mod…
Design and construction of MuTe: a hybrid Muon Telescope to study Colombian Volcanoes
J. Peña-Rodríguez, J. Pisco-Guabave, D. Sierra-Porta +6
We present a hybrid Muon Telescope, MuTe, designed and built for imaging active Colombian volcanoes. The MuTe has a resolution of tens of meters, low power consumption, robustness…
Simulated Response of MuTe, a Hybrid Muon Telescope
A. Vásquez-Ramírez, M. Suárez-Durán, A. Jaimes-Motta +6
In this paper we present a complete and detailed computational model of the response of the hybrid Muon Telescope (MuTe), designed to perform muography volcanic studies. This instr…
Calibration and first measurements of MuTe: a hybrid Muon Telescope for geological structures
Jesús Peña-Rodríguez, Adriana Vásquez-Ramírez, José D. Sanabria-Gómez +3
In this work, we describe the calibration and first measurements in the commissioning of MuTe, a hybrid Muon Telescope with two subdetectors --a scintillator hodoscope and a Water…
