35. Hybrid detectors for synchrotrons and XFELs

Anna Bergamaschi

Oral

Detectors for photon science inherit concepts and technologies originally developed for vertex detectors in high-energy physics, driven by shared demands for high granularity, low noise, radiation tolerance, and fast frame rates. While the underlying sensors and readout chips show strong commonality, the experimental requirements differ fundamentally: unlike HEP vertex systems, photon-science...

9. Improving spatial resolution in Transmission Electron Microscopy using the sub-ns timing sensitivity of Timepix4

Richard Plackett (University of Oxford (GB))

Oral

We report on the use of Timepix4 as a detector for Transmission Electron Microscopy, and the rapidly growing demand for hybrid silicon detectors in this field. We discuss the benefits and limitations of thick hybrid silicon detectors such as the timepix4 in this use case, and present measurement results demonstrating how the sue of post processing can improve the spatial resolution of the...

6. Hardware Demonstration of Level-1 Vertexing with the Track Finder for the CMS Phase-2 Upgrade

Andrew Mastronikolis (Imperial College (GB))

Oral

The High-Luminosity LHC will require the CMS Level-1 (L1) trigger to operate in an environment with up to 200 simultaneous proton–proton interactions per bunch crossing. To maintain efficient event selection under these conditions, the CMS Phase-2 upgrade introduces real-time tracking and vertex reconstruction at L1.

In this work, we present a hardware demonstration of L1 vertex...

88. Advanced muon spin spectroscopy using silicon-pixel vertex reconstruction at PSI

Dr Zaher Salman (The Paul Scherrer Institute)

Oral

Muon spin rotation, relaxation and resonance (μSR) is a powerful local-probe technique for studying magnetism, superconductivity and spin dynamics in quantum materials. However, conventional continuous-beam μSR spectrometers are intrinsically limited by the requirement that only one muon is present in the sample during the measurement time window. This constrains the usable stopped-muon rate...
