  1. 1. Performance Improvements for Particle Tracking Detectors in Extreme Rate and Radiation Environments

    Author : Veronica Wallängen; Samuel Silverstein; Sara Strandberg; Marek Idzik; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : In order to increase its discovery potential, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN is being transformed into a higher luminosity machine expected to be operational around 2026. The number of particle collisions will increase by a factor of 10 beyond the current design value, which means that the detectors installed around the LHC are facing various new challenges.

  2. 2. Instrumentation for silicon tracking at the HL-LHC

    Author : Rebecca Carney; Samuel Silverstein; Sara Strandberg; Thomas Schön; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Instrumentation; physics; particle physics; atlas; radiation damage; neuromorphic; kalman filter; fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : In 2027 the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN will enter a high luminosity phase, deliver- ing 3000 fb 1 over the course of ten years. The High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) will increase the instantaneous luminosity delivered by a factor of 5 compared to the current operation pe- riod. READ MORE

  3. 3. Silicon Tracking and a Search for Long-lived Particles

    Author : Rebecca Carney; Samuel Silverstein; Sara Strandberg; Maurice Garcia-Sciveres; Joel Goldstein; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ATLAS; silicon; silicon tracking; radiation damage; neuromorphic; neuromorphic computing; long-lived particles; susy; rpvll; displaced vertices; pixel; pixel detector; fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : The ATLAS Detector, below the surface of the Swiss-French border, measures the remnants of high-energy proton-proton collisions, accelerated by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. Recently the LHC paused operations, having delivered an integrated luminosity corresponding to 150 fb−1 of data at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. READ MORE

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the response of Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) detectors to ionizing irradiation. Detectors based on π-υ junction formed by deep level centers doping. READ MORE

  5. 5. Aspects of Hadron Production in High-Energy Heavy-Ion Physics

    Author : David Silvermyr; Partikel- och kärnfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; RHIC; pad readout; electronic; chip-on-board; tracking; heavy-ion collisions; freeze-out temperature; delta resonance; SPS; WA98; PHENIX; Fysik; coherent peripheral; multiplicity; Physics; Fysicumarkivet A:2001:Silvermyr;

    Abstract : High-energy heavy-ion collisions provide a unique tool for the study of nuclear matter as a function of temperature and density. WA98 at the CERN SPS recorded data with a 158 A GeV Pb beam on a Pb target in 1996. To cope with the high charged-particle density, a tracking system based on high granularity multi-step avalanche detectors was developed. READ MORE
