In this work we revisit the problem of the restricted count rate capability of thermal neutron detectors utilizing the ZnS scintillator. The effect of the long afterglow of the scintillator on the detector performance at high counting rates is studied. A count rate capability substantially above values currently regarded as feasible is demonstrated.

High-speed optical data transmission for detector instrumentation in particle physics
This work discusses the advantage of optical transmission utilizing wavelength-division multiplexing for the read-out of experimental data in detector instrumentation in high-energy physics, astroparticle physics or photon science. A multi-channel optical transmitter is developed as the core component on a silicon-on-insulator platform.

Silicon radiation detectors with minimum dead area in the sensor periphery are desirable and sometimes necessary for many applications in nuclear medicine, high energy physics, and X-ray science. The dead area typically includes a guard ring structure that is required for facilitating a uniform electric field distribution around the active area of the ...

Nowadays, one of the most active research fields within the domain of high energy physics is the study of neutrinos. In the mainstream theory, encompassed in the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics, the phenomenology of neutrino physics is determined by seven degrees of freedom, consisting of three masses ((m1,m2,m3), three mixing angles (θ12, θ13,
