DRD4 - Working group 2 meeting : Particle Identification

Thursday 24 Oct 2024, 16:25 → 18:40 Europe/Zurich

16:30 → 16:35 WG2: Introduction and news

Speaker: Sajan Easo (Science and Technology Facilities Council STFC (GB))

16:35 → 17:00 Fast infra-red photon detectors for particle identification

These were developed for astro-particle experiments. The details of these developments and the possibility to use them for HEP experiments will be discussed. One interesting aspect is the potential to have reduced chromatic error in the Cherenkov angle measurement, compared to that from detectors optimized for the UV part of the spectrum.

Speaker: Dr Simone Bini

17:00 → 17:25 Radiator gases in future Cherenkov detectors: Development, circulation and monitoring

Aspects related to the thermodynamic circulation of the gases will be presented. R&D needed for the development of radiator gases will be discussed.

Speaker: Gregory Hallewell (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (FR))
