5. Radiation Effects on Detectors: Tue-3
- Andrew Blue (University of Glasgow)
During the production of the new ATLAS Inner-Tracker (ITk) strip sensors for the forthcoming High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) upgrade, the collaboration observed indications of low p-stop doping in a few sensor batches. Quality Control measurements of full-size sensors from these batches showed indications of sensor areas with low inter-strip isolation. Detailed studies of...
Silicon strip detectors developed for the Inner Tracker (ITk) of the ATLAS experiment are designed to operate in the harsh radiation environment of the HL-LHC accelerator. In the strip region of the ITk, sensors must withstand a total fluence of $1.6 \times 10^{15}~\text{n}_{\text{eq}}\text{ 1 MeV}/\text{cm}^2$ and a total ionizing dose (TID) of $66~\text{Mrad}$. To meet these requirements,...
For the High Luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider, the current ATLAS Inner Detector will be replaced by an all-silicon Inner Tracker (ITk). The installation is foreseen during the next LHC Long Shut Down 3 (2026-2030). The new tracker has been designed to face the challenging environment associated with the high number of collisions per bunch crossing and the expected large...
High-Voltage Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (HV-MAPS) offer nanosecond level timing in combination with a low material budget making them ideal for tracking detectors in high energy physics. With future experiments aiming for higher luminosities, the HV-MAPS technology has to satisfy strict requirements on time resolution and radiation tolerance.
One such experiment is the proposed LHCb...
