  1. 1. Status update of Allpix Squared simulations for Multi-element Germanium Detectors for Synchrotron Applications
    Francisco Jose Iguaz Gutierrez (Université Paris-Saclay (FR))

    Applications & Studies

    Synchrotron experiments using X-ray fluorescence (XRF) techniques are currently limited by the sensitivity of fluorescence detectors, where the maximum counting rate, the energy resolution and the signal-to-background ratio are key performance features. The two last features are highly affected by charge sharing events, i.e., events where photon energy is shared between pixels. This...

  2. 8. Developing new detector model geometries in Allpix-Squared
    Radek Privara (Palacky University (CZ))

    Developments

    Recent efforts in the Allpix-Squared development have been focused on implementing non-typical detector model geometries, such as radial strip detectors with trapezoidal sensors or detectors with hexagonal pixels.
    The Geant4 library, the underlying simulation core handling (among else) model geometry in Allpix-Squared, can create a variety of detector shapes. However, creating the model...

  3. 7. New Allpix Squared Documentation & Website
    Stephan Lachnit (Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DE))

    Developments

    Allpix Squared has been using LaTeX to create its documentation. While this results in an excellent looking PDF, the documentation on the website has issues with displaying certain math and code blocks nicely. Thus it was decided to change the documentation format, using Markdown for the source and [Docsy][1] for the website.

    This talk will present the new website and goes into some of the...

  4. 15. Ongoing & Future Developments
    Simon Spannagel (Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DE))

    Developments

    This contribution provides an overview of ongoing developments and planned features of the Allpix Squared framework, such as the extended geometry options for sensors, 3D front- and backside implants, impact ionization and a change in how detector fields are applied in the simulation.
