In the research and development for ALICE's future upgrades, there's a strong focus on creating new mechanical and cooling solutions for upcoming low-mass vertex detectors.
With the assumption of utilizing next-generation monolithic pixel sensors based on stitched technology, capable of covering large bent-to-shape surfaces, the focus lies on offering the lightest substrate with integrated...
Microchannel cooling technology offers an excellent thermal figure of merit solution to remove the heat from the front-end electronics and/or sensors. This presentation will cover different techniques and substrate materials to deliver the next generation of cooling plates based on power dissipation up to 2W/cm2 (LHCb VELO Upgrade 2 as benchmark), material budget equal or below 0.5%X0, better...
As the energy frontier moves towards more extreme collision conditions – higher energies and luminosities – there is a strong need for the development of lightweight detector support structures. The Snowmass Instrumentation Frontier report mentioned the following as two of the critical near-term priorities for solid-state tracking:
$\bullet$ IF03-2 Adapt new materials and...
