    Magnetic Czochralski (MCz) silicon wafers have been successfully employed in sensor applications for high-energy physics, space and medical applications. It is known to have a superior radiation tolerance and robustness compared to Float-Zone (FZ) silicon and better availability. On the other hand, the higher oxygen concentration of the material can lead to the generation of Thermal Donors...

    In particle therapy and in particular in scanning beam proton therapy, fast, accurate, and efficient characterization of intensity and energy-modulated beams and patient-specific quality assurance of such beams is a considerable challenge.
    Each Intensity Modulates Proton Therapy (IMPT) beam in a treatment may employ thousands of individual pencil beams or “spots” of variable intensities,...

    The SHiP experiment (Search for Hidden Particles) is a new general purpose fixed target experiment proposed at the CERN SPS accelerator. A dedicated beam line in the North Area will be aimed at a fixed target station, followed by a magnetic shield to reduce beam induced background. The facility will comprise a compact tau neutrino detector and a detector to search for hidden particles....

    Silicon Photomultiplier (SiPM) is an arrays of many Single-photon avalanche diodes (SPADs), all connected in parallel. Each SPAD is sensitive to single photons and the SiPM gives an output proportional to the number of detected photons. It is becoming more and more popular in different applications, from high-energy physics to spectroscopy, and it has been significantly improved over last...

    The TT-PET Collaboration is developing a fast, low power consumption monolithic silicon detector in SiGe Bi-CMOS VLSI process to realize a Time-Of-Flight PET scanner. The development of picosecond-time-resolution silicon pixel detectors is a challenge that requires a detailed study of the sensor geometry and an accurate choice of the Front-End electronics technology.
    A time resolution of...
