Description
Several CERN accelerators are being equipped with Beam Gas Ionization (BGI) profile monitors using high resolution Timepix3 detectors resulting in very powerful and not destructive measurements [1]
The images produced by these detectors contain the signal from ionization electrons as well as noise coming from different sources (mainly beam losses) and other artifacts like noisy pixels or the RF shield.
Several approaches are being studied to remove the noise and the artifacts from the images to improve the beam measurement. The presentation will give an overview of these approaches.
