Photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) are general components in particle physics and nuclear physics experiments. They convert light signals into electrical signals. When a primary photoelectron comes from the photocathode of the PMT, it will be amplified by the dynode or MCPs. Especially in the neutrino observatory experiments and large cosmic ray experiments, where hundreds or even thousands of PMTs...
The Hyper-Kamiokande (HK), which is scheduled to start operation in 2027, is a gigantic water Cherenkov detector designed to observe a wide range of physics phenomena including neutrino oscillations and proton decay. Currently, the mass production of 50 cm diameter photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) for HK is in progress. A series of measurements are being conducted to evaluate the performance...
Due to its superior temporal resolution, low dark noise and stability in magnetic fields, the microchannel plate photomultiplier tube (MCP-PMT) is an essential component of particle identification detectors such as LHCb, Belle II and STCF, as well as fast neutron or X-ray detectors in nuclear inertial confinement fusion (ICF) experiments. However, future work is needed to develop the MCP-PMT...
The Microchannel Plate Photomultiplier (MCP-PMT), also known as Fast-timing PMT (FPMT), is a photosensitive device renowned for its high gain, exceptional detection efficiency, single-photon detection capability, magnetic field resistance, and superior time resolution. Widely utilized in high-energy physics and medical detection applications, the FPMT requires rapid time resolution and robust...
