We present an iterative image reconstruction for a novel tomographic technique using an electron beam with energies from several hundreds megaelectronvolt to a few gigaelectronvolt. When a high-energy electron beam passes through an object, the electrons are deflected by multiple Coulomb scattering, and the angular distribution depends on the material budget of the traversed material. The...
The Inner Tracker of the ATLAS experiment requires optimal performance of its pixel sensors. To test their efficiency,a precise track reconstruction and analysis for testbeam data is necessary to ensure the precise detection of particles. In the last years, track reconstruction was mostly done with the EUTelescope software, a generic and versatile framework.
In 2017, the new track...
Since the first release of Allpix$^2$ in fall 2017, more than 30 developers have contributed to more than 25 stable releases. Over this time, the silicon detector simulation framework has been enriched by features ranging from physics aspects such the implementation of magnetic fields in particle and charge carrier propagation, over simulation aspects like the possibility to conduct full...
The development of large scale detectors requires high throughput testing capabilities. The ideal approach for large high energy physics collaborations is to spread the testing over different institutes. However, this requires standardized equipment that, ideally, should be operable by non-experts. We propose an affordable test platform that automatically recognizes and identifies the device...
