Fast Timing Methods for Semiconductor Detectors [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science, 1982 This tutorial paper discusses the basic parameters which determine the accuracy of timing measurements and their effect in a practical application, specifically timing with thin-surface barrier detectors. The discussion focusses on properties of the detector, low-noise amplifiers, trigger circuits and time converters.

Timing performance of 30-nm-wide superconducting nanowire avalanche photodetectors [PDF]
, 2011 We investigated the timing jitter of superconducting nanowire avalanche photodetectors (SNAPs, also referred to as cascade switching superconducting single photon detectors) based on 30-nm-wide nanowires. At bias currents (IB) near the switching current,

Overview of spatial and timing resolution of event counting detectors with Microchannel Plates
, 2020 Event counting detectors with Microchannel Plates (MCPs) rely on conversion of incoming particles (photons, electrons, neutrons, atoms, ions) into an output charge of 103–107 electrons.

Minimal Timing Jitter in Superconducting Nanowire Single-Photon Detectors [PDF]
Physical Review Applied, 2018 Using two-temperature model coupled with modified time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau equation we calculate the delay time $\tau_d$ in appearance of growing normal domain in the current-biased superconducting strip after absorption of the single photon.

First-Order Phase Transition Interpretation of Pulsar Timing Array Signal Is Consistent with Solar-Mass Black Holes. [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2023 We perform a Bayesian analysis of NANOGrav 15-yr and IPTA DR2 pulsar timing residuals and show that the recently detected stochastic gravitational-wave background is compatible with a stochastic gravitational-wave background produced by bubble dynamics ...

A TIME-OF-FLIGHT DETECTOR FOR CDF
International Journal of Modern Physics A, 2001 A Time-of-Flight detector (TOF), with a technique based on plastic scintillators and finemesh photomultipliers, has been added to the CDF-II experiment. The main physics motivation is to improve neutral B meson flavor determination by K± identification.

Eight-fold signal amplification of a superconducting nanowire single-photon detector using a multiple-avalanche architecture [PDF]
, 2014 Superconducting nanowire avalanche single-photon detectors (SNAPs) with n parallel nanowires are advantageous over single-nanowire detectors because their output signal amplitude scales linearly with n.

TORCH --- a Cherenkov-based Time-of-Flight Detector [PDF]
Acta Physica Polonica B Proceedings Supplement, 2014 TORCH is an innovative high-precision time-of-flight system to provide particle identification in the difficult intermediate momentum region up to 10 GeV/c. It is also suitable for large-area applications. The detector provides a time-of-flight measurement from the imaging of Cherenkov photons emitted in a 1 cm thick quartz radiator.
