RD51 Workshop on Gaseous Detector Contributions to PID

16 Feb 2021, 13:50 → 17 Feb 2021, 18:35 Europe/Zurich

remote-only

Chandradoy Chatterjee (Universita e INFN Trieste (IT)), Emilio Radicioni (Universita e INFN, Bari (IT)), Silvia Dalla Torre (Universita e INFN, Trieste (IT))

This Workshop is one more RD51 dissemination event, organized according to the Collaboration tradition, which has promoted topical Workshops, Schools, Academy-Industry Matching events.

The focus of the present Workshop is on the contributions that gaseous detectors offer to particle identification challenges, a key ingredient in hadron and flavour physics, where gaseous detectors are providing central assistance. More extended use of PID counters at colliders is desirable: further progress in the field is needed to facilitate a broader use.

The items discussed include:

•    Gaseous detectors of single photoelectrons in Cherenkov imaging devices
•    Transition radiation detectors
•    Fine time resolution opportunities with gaseous detectors for TOF measurements
•    dE/dx measurements with the classical approach and cluster counting.
