Maximilian Babeluk (Austrian Academy of Sciences (AT))17/06/2024, 09:30WG1 - Monolithic Sensors
The Belle II experiment currently records data at the SuperKEKB e+e- collider, which holds the world luminosity record of $4.7x10^{34} cm^{-2}s^{-1}$ and plans to reach $6x10^{35} cm^{-2}s^{-1}$ at the end of the decade. In such luminosity range for e+e- collisions, the inner detection layers should both cope with a hit rate dominated by beam-induced parasitic particles and provide minute...
