Fast Timing Silicon Detector R&D for the Electron-Ion Collider: Improving Track Reconstruction and Pileup Rejection
The proposed MALTA2-based Fast MAPS Tracker (FMT) can improve track reconstruction in the forward and backward regions of the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) and significantly reduce pileup background for heavy flavor measurements.
Optimizing Micromegas Detectors with x/y Strip Readouts for Directional Recoil Detection
Micromegas detectors with high-resolution x/y strip readouts are a promising technology for directional detection of low-energy nuclear and electronic recoils, with applications in coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering, astrophysical neutrino measurements, and dark matter searches.
Enhancing the FASER Experiment's Preshower Detector: Initial Performance Assessment and Calibration of the Production Monolithic Silicon Pixel ASIC for TeV-Scale Electromagnetic Shower Detection
The FASER experiment is developing a high-resolution tungsten-silicon preshower detector to enhance its ability to distinguish closely spaced photon pairs with TeV-scale energies. The production monolithic silicon pixel ASIC, fabricated using 130 nm SiGe BiCMOS technology, has undergone initial performance testing and calibration to optimize its charge reconstruction capabilities.
The TOTEM nT2Detector: Architecture, Operation, and Preliminary Performance Evaluation
The TOTEM experiment at the LHC has designed a new inelastic event detector, called nT2, to precisely measure the total proton-proton cross-section during a special LHC run in 2023. The nT2 detector, based on plastic scintillators read out by SiPMs, was developed to meet tight constraints on installation time and radiation tolerance, and was successfully integrated with the CMS experiment's control and readout systems.
