In the context of the Pentadimensional Tracking Space Detector project (PTSD), we are currently developing a demonstrator to increase the Technological Readiness Level of LGAD Si-microstrip tracking detectors for applications in space-borne instruments. Low Gain Avalanche Diodes (LGAD) is a consolidated technology developed for particle detectors at colliders which allows for simultaneous and...

The essential performance criteria for novel 4D tracking sensors are high-precision timing, fine spatial resolution, high-rate capability, and low material budget.
Low Gain Avalanche Diode (LGAD) sensors provide this combination of capabilities, which makes them valuable in high-energy physics, nuclear experiments, beam monitoring, and medical applications such as ionCT.
While widely used...

Oral

Over the last decade, Low-Gain Avalanche Diode sensors (LGADs) and Resistive Silicon Detectors (RSDs) have significantly advanced silicon detector capabilities. LGAD sensors provide much improved time resolution thanks to the fast and large signals with optimized signal-to-noise ratio, achieving resolutions of 30 ps with 50 um-thick sensors. The addition of a resistive read-out to LGADs, as in...
