Testrun results from prototype fiber detectors for high rate particle tracking
نویسندگان
چکیده
A fiber detector concept has been realized allowing to registrate particles within less than 100 nsec with a space point precision of about 100 μm at low occupancy. Three full size prototypes have been build by different producers and tested at a 3 GeV electron beam at DESY. After 3 m of light guides 8 10 photoelectrons were registrated by multichannel photomultipliers providing an efficiency of more than 99 %. Using all available data a resolution of 86 μm was measured.

A prototype avalanche photodiode array for scintillating-fiber tracking detectors
We have evaluated the performance of a prototype 16-channel avalanche photodiode (APD) array developed primarily for scintillating-fiber (SCIFI) tracking detectors. The APD array was coupled to a 2.5 m long SCIFI array, and the detection efficiency was measured for minimum ionizing particles passing through the SCIFI array. The APD array was cooled to −50◦C to improve the S/N ratio. We have fou...
متن کاملDesign and Prototype Performance of the ATLAS Pixel Detector
The ATLAS experiment at the LHC will have three barrel and two times ve disk layers of silicon pixel detectors as the innermost elements of the Inner Tracking Detector. The detector is built adopting the hybrid pixel technology in which 16 highly performant FE chips are connected to a silicon sensor by means of the bump and ip-chip technique. Owing to the high bunch crossing rate of 40 MHz at t...

S-=-Y Charged particle tracking is essential in order to investigate the new physics expected at the SSC. The Tradting Group studied radiation damage and rate limitationa to tracking devices, vertex detectors, and central tracking. The Group concluded that silicon strips and large wire tracking chambers with small cells can probably survive at the design luminosity of 10j3 cmm2 see-‘; however, ...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Scintillating Fibre Detector for HERA-B
A fibre detector with multianode PM readout for high rate applications was developed for the HERA-B spectometer to cover the area near the beampipe. Such a detector has to operate at particle rates up to 2 ⋆ 10 mms and has to tolerate a radiation dosis up to 1 Mrad/y. The light output of test detectors with different scintillating fibres was measured as well as the light transport through clear...
متن کاملResults from a beam test of a prototype PLT diamond pixel telescope
We describe results from a beam test of a telescope consisting of three planes of single-crystal, diamond pixel detectors. This telescope is a prototype for a small-angle luminosity monitor, the Pixel Luminosity Telescope (PLT), for CMS. We recorded the pixel addresses and pulse heights of all pixels over threshold as well as the fast-or signals from all three telescope planes. We present resul...
