Diamond Detectors for Timing Measurements in High Energy Physics

Frontiers in Physics, 2020
Timing detectors are a well-established part of High Energy Physics experimental instrumentation. The choice of sensors with fast (less than 10 ns) and precise (better than 100 ps) signals, together with radiation resistance considerations, are an ...

Constraining Nonperturbative Strong-Field Effects in Scalar-Tensor Gravity by Combining Pulsar Timing and Laser-Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Detectors [PDF]

Physical Review X, 2017
Pulsar timing and laser-interferometer gravitational-wave (GW) detectors are superb laboratories to study gravity theories in the strong-field regime. Here, we combine these tools to test the mono-scalar-tensor theory of Damour and Esposito-Farèse (DEF),

Numerical Proof-of-Concept of Monolithic AC-LGAD Detectors for 4D Particle Tracking [PDF]

Sensors
We present the numerical proof of a new sensor concept, based on the Resistive AC-Coupled Silicon Detectors (RSDs) paradigm and standard CMOS process, which benefits from having a 100% fill factor and embedded front-end electronics.
