Semiconductor particle tracking detectors

Reports on Progress in Physics, 1994
The last decade has seen substantial progress in the use of solid state detectors, which are now exploited on a large scale in high energy physics experiments for precise positional measurements. This article surveys the major classes of detector and the methods employed to construct them and instrument the large systems presently in use for particle ...

Charge-coupled devices as particle tracking detectors

Review of Scientific Instruments, 1998
Following a few years after the invention of the charge-coupled device (CCD) in 1970, the discovery of charmed particles established the need for very high precision (few μm) detectors for tracking high energy charged particles. This review describes the work which has evolved over the past 20 years from these disconnected events, both as regards the ...

Hi’Beam-S: A Monolithic Silicon Pixel Sensor-Based Prototype Particle Tracking System for HIAF

IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science, 2021
Particle tracking systems, which function either as particle detectors or beam monitors, are the critical elements for the high-intensity heavy-ion accelerator facility (HIAF) complex.

Complementary moment detection for tracking a fast-moving object using dual single-pixel detectors.

Optics Letters, 2022
Target tracking has found important applications in particle tracking, vehicle navigation, aircraft monitoring, etc. However, employing single-pixel imaging techniques to track a fast-moving object with a high frame rate is still a challenge, due to the ...

Particle identification by dielectric track detectors

Radiation Effects, 1970
Abstract Chemical reactivity along the trajectory of a charged particle in a dielectric solid depends on the density of radiation-damaged species. In inorganic crystals such as are found in meteorites, cosmic rays can be identified by etching for a long time and measuring the entire etchable ranges of the slowing particles, which are related to their ...

Hollow particle tracks in AgCI-detectors

Radiation Measurements, 1995
Abstract In selected Cd-doped monocristalline silverchloride detectors we observe developed tracks from particles at LET values > 300 keV/μm AgCl and charge state values > 9, without a visible central region: the “hollow track”. The microdensitometric lateral profile shows a density decrease near the track axis, up to a radial extension of some ...

Nuclear track detector characterization for alpha-particle spectroscopy

Radiation Measurements, 2013
Abstract Solid State Nuclear Track Detectors (SSNTDs), CR-39™ type, are usually adopted in many applications in which it could be necessary to select tracks according to the incident alpha-particle energy; so several authors have argued that track parameters such as the major/minor axis being the most often reported, can be used to determine the ...

OPTICAL PROPERTIES OF PARTICLE TRACKS IN SSNTD DETECTORS

Nuclear Tracks, 1981
ABSTRACT Track structures in SSNTD materials have properties which make them useful as targets in a variety of light-scattering investigations, including studies of fluorescence and Raman scattering by molecules embedded in or adsorbed onto microscopic structures as well as elastic scattering by the structures themselves. The size and, to some extent,
