The High-Luminosity phase of the LHC (HL-LHC), scheduled to begin operation in 2030, will provide an instantaneous luminosity of up to 7.5x10^34 cm^-2c s^-1. This will result in an average of 200 simultaneous interactions per bunch crossing, significantly increasing the vertex density and creating major challenges for event reconstruction.

To mitigate pile-up in the forward region and...

While silicon pixel detectors have long provided excellent spatial resolution, the extreme pile-up conditions expected at future high-luminosity colliders require precise timing information to complement spatial measurements. Recent advances in fast silicon sensor technology now enable time resolutions at the level of a few tens of picoseconds, opening the path toward true 4D tracking, in...

48. AMS-L0 Upgrade: Project Progress, Beam Test Campaign and Performance Test Results

The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS-02), operating on the
International Space Station since 2011, measures cosmic rays in the
energy range from ~1 GV to several TV, providing precise determination
of particle charge, momentum, and matter–antimatter separation.

To enhance its performance before the expected retirement of the
International Space Station around 2030, the silicon tracking...

43. Superconductive Detectors for High Energy Physics (SD4HEP) - 160 GeV Pion Testbeam

Talk

Quantum sensing techniques offer significant advantages in the low-energy detection regime and show strong potential for sub-picosecond timing applications. In the context of the Future Circular Collider (FCC), expanding the excellent single-photon resolution demonstrated by Superconducting Nanowire Single-Photon Detectors (SNSPDs) to charged particles, would open the door to applications such...

16. Performance evaluation of the AstroPix v3 HV-CMOS Sensor: Results from the DESY II Testbeam

Talk

AstroPix is a novel monolithic High-Voltage CMOS (HV-CMOS) active pixel sensor designed for use in medium-range gamma-ray observatories like AMEGO-X. To meet mission requirements, the sensor must demonstrate low power consumption (< 1.5 mW/cm2) and deliver a required dynamic range between 25 and 700 keV with an energy resolution below 10% at 122 keV. The third sensor version features a pixel...

30. Performance Characterisation of LF-MightyPix

Talk

For Run 5 of the LHC, LHCb foresees operating at an instantaneous luminosity of up to $1.0 \cdot 10^{34} \, \text{cm}^{-2} \,\text{s}^{-1}$. To cope with this challenging environment, the current detector needs to be upgraded. One crucial part of the upgrade is the new main tracker, the Mighty-Tracker. The innermost region will be instrumented with silicon pixel sensors, planned to be based on...

55. Review of TPSCo 65 nm prototypes for vertexing at a future lepton collider

The OCTOPUS project addresses the development and characterization of monolithic active pixel sensors in the TPSCo 65 nm ISC technology in view of vertexing applications at a future lepton collider. Meeting the corresponding requirements -- outlined in the ECFA detector road map -- will necessitate the simulation, design, and testing of prototypes and a demonstrator chip in this very...
