The topic would serve as an overview/update of some of the tools used during testbeam campaigns related to the SRS/VMM3a system, such as the newly introduced triggered mode; updated scripts for data acquisition, reconstruction, and basic analysis; and possibly some details on corryvrecken analysis and meetings.

478. GEMPix Developments as TPC Pixel Readout

Samip Basnet (Czech Technical University in Prague (CZ))

We present the latest developments of a cylindrical triple-GEM Time Projection Chamber (TPC) instrumented with a quad Timepix3 pixel readout, developed within the framework of DRD1 activities at CERN. The system combines GEM-based gas amplification with a multi-chip pixelated readout, targeting high-granularity measurements for precise three-dimensional tracking. The detector features a...
