A brief overview of the development of the idea of colliding electron-positron beams is given. It led to the appearance of many modern installations-factories with extremely high productivity-luminosity. This development progressed as complexity increased from simple single ring machines with a single bunch in the beam to two ring machines with hundreds or even thousands of circulating bunches...
A Higgs factory is considered the highest-priority next collider in the EPPSU 2020 strategy update. Two linear colliders projects, the International Linear Collider (ILC) and the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC), currently under study are among the candidates being considered. Although the linacs accelerating the particles use different RF technologies they share similar challenges, for example...
The axion dark matter search, even up a few years ago, looked nearly impossible to reach theoretically interesting sensitivities due to very feeble coupling strengths with ordinary matter and with itself. Recently, ADMX has reached DFSZ level sensitivities for frequencies below 1 GHz. Above 1 GHz, the situation becomes again very difficult very rapidly, but our recent breakthrough innovations...
Understanding the properties of nuclear matter and its emergence through the underlying partonic structure and dynamics of quarks and gluons requires a new experimental facility in hadronic physics known as the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). The EIC will address some of the most profound questions concerning the emergence of nuclear properties by precisely imaging gluons and quarks inside...
The HL-LHC poses some serious challenges to particle detectors, with a luminosity of 5x10^34 cm^-2s-1, a pileup of up to 200 pp collisions per bunch-crossing and hadron fluence of up to 2x10^16 cm^-2 in the most exposed silicon sensors. The LHC community is at this moment preparing the detector upgrades for this project to be installed in the middle of this decade. The FCC-hh is a 100TeV next...
Total-body imaging with positron emission tomography (PET) was recently developed through a large, international collaboration (EXPLORER), that has so far resulted in the construction of several prototype and preclinical total-body PET systems for research purposes, along with the FDA-approved uEXPLORER total-body PET/CT system. Here, total-body PET imaging is achieved by extending the...
Precision comparisons of properties of well-studied hydrogen with its antimatter counterpart, antihydrogen, provide opportunities for testing foundational principles of modern physics – such as CPT invariance and Weak Equivalence Principle. Since the beginning of the Antiproton Declarator facility at CERN in 1999, significant progress has been made in developing techniques for synthesizing,...
The nature of dark matter in the Universe is the Holy Grail for most particle physicists. It is a crucial element that is still missing in our understanding of the Universe and would provide a chance to discover physics beyond the standard model. Currently many experiments around the world are searching for dark matter and utilize detectors with large mass in extremely low background...
This talk will survey technology needs (detector and source) for next-generation neutrino experiments, and prospects for their development
Mini-EUSO is a detector observing the Earth in the ultraviolet band from the International Space Station, launched in 2019.
The main camera has an optical system with two Fresnel lenses and a focal surface with 2k channels and field of view of 44o, range (290-430 nm), pixel size of 6.3 km, sampling of 2.5mus, through a nadir-facing UV-transparent window in the Russian Zvezda module. It...
The Belle II experiment is collecting data at the SuperKEKB collider (KEK, Japan), which aims to provide 50 ab-1 integrated luminosity with the unprecedented peak-luminosity of 6 × 10^35 cm-2s-1.
The challenge for the Belle II detector is the harsh beam background due to the high luminosity beams. The silicon vertex detector (SVD) is one of the vertex detectors in Belle II, consisting of...
Hybrid pixel detectors offer unrivalled performance in very high rate particle tracking. Moreover, as the sensor material can be freely chosen or replaced by a gas detector or a Micro Channel Plate the same readout ASIC may find uses in multiple applications. The Timepix4 chip tags particle arrival times to within 200ps and is capable of digesting ~700 Mhits/cm2/sec. This, however, comes at...
GRAND is a newly envisioned Giant Radio Array for Neutrino Detection with a sensitivity large enough to be able to measure cosmic neutrinos in all reasonable scenarios. In its final configuration, it will consist of 200,000 radio antennas distributed over ~20 sub-arrays worldwide with a total area of 200,000 km2. GRANDProto300 is created to further develop the hardware, software and trigger...
The CMS High-Granularity Calorimeter (HGCAL) imposes extremely challenging specifications for the front-end electronics: high dynamic range, low noise, high-precision time information and low power consumption, as well as the need to select and transmit trigger information with a high transverse and longitudinal granularity. HGCROC-V2 has 72 channels of the full analog chain: low noise and...
Particle Flow algorithms promise to reach unprecedented jet energy resolution as needed for precision measurements at a future Higgs Factory. This is accomplished by combining the information from detector components in an optimal way. A key ingredient for this approach are highly granular calorimeters that provide a clear separation of nearby showers as well as a good energy measurement. The...

he High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) upgrade will significantly increase the instantaneous luminosity of LHC collisions. The resulting proton-proton datasets will allow precise measurements of Higgs boson properties, searches for rare processes, and much more. However, the associated experimental environment poses significant challenges for the LHC detectors and their triggering systems, which...
The last few years has seen the emergence of fast timing silicon detectors, first pioneered for the HL-LHC at CERN, as an option for deployment in large tracking arrays. These silicon detectors are based on the Low Gain Avalanche Detector (LGAD) concept, and are being made by a large number of vendors and labs. In addition a significant amount of R&D worldwide is happening to try and improve...
This contribution presents an update on the Photon Detection Module (PDM) R&D for large-scale noble liquid experiments and precise timing systems. Based on a multilayered silicon interposer, for radio purity and coefficient of thermal expansion matching between its components, the PDM has built-in modularity for system scaling. It is based on an array of Photon-to-Digital Converters (PDCs,...
SENSEI (Sub-Electron Noise Skipper Experimental Instrument) is a leading experiment in the search for sub-GeV dark matter.
Using the high granularity of CCDs and the sub-electron charge resolution of the Skipper readout, Skipper-CCDs can count individual electron-hole pairs in each of millions of pixels.
The SENSEI Skipper-CCDs have measured the lowest rates in silicon detectors of events...
