    ORAL
    Hybrid pixel detectors are being developed for both photon science and high energy physics. In the talk we will cover similarities and differences in pixel detectors for both applications using as examples two of the pixel detectors developed at Paul Scherrer Institute (Switzerland): the EIGER photon counting detector and the psi46dig chip, which has been developed for the Compact Muon...

    ORAL
    Synchrotron light sources are capable of producing x-ray synchrotron radiation of extreme brilliance and coherence. These sources create opportunities to exploit experimental techniques in both time-resolved and coherent x-ray imaging experiments, assuming the availability of area detectors designed to capture and record the relevant and desired x-ray information. Capturing this information...

  3. 201. Pixel Detectors for the LCLS
    Chris Kenney (SLAC)

    ORAL
    Fourth generation light sources such as the LCLS represent a unique and challenging environment in which to operate x-ray detectors. Their pulsed time structure, in which a large number of x-rays impinge on a sample essentially simultaneously, demands detectors capable of handling large signals while maintaining sensitivity to single photons. Both energy and absorption depth in silicon of the...

    ORAL
    With the continual drive towards bigger, better and brighter light sources, whole new areas of scientific research are possible that would have been unimaginable or even believed impossible before. However, even the best experiment or the best light source is worthless if the employed detection system is not up to the task at hand. This is especially true for light sources like the current...

    ORAL
    The PixFEL project aims to develop an advanced X-ray camera for imaging suited for the demanding requirements of next generation free electron laser (FEL) facilities. The deployment of new technologies and innovative solutions, already under study for future pixel detectors for tracking, can also boost the performance of imaging instrumentations. In the first phase of the PixFEL project,...

  6. 159. First characterization results of the MÖNCH hybrid pixel detector
    Roberto Dinapoli (Paul Scherrer Institut)
    03/09/2014, 16:50
    ORAL
    MÖNCH is a novel hybrid silicon pixel detector based on charge integration and analog readout, featuring a challengingly small pixel size of 25x25 μm2. It is a research project which aims to push the development of hybrid pixel detectors to its limits in terms of photon flux, position resolution, energy information and low energy detection. MOENCH02 is a fully functional, small scale...
