Abstract:

The upcoming High-Luminosity LHC era necessitates a shift to 4D tracking
in High Energy Physics experiments to reduce occupancy from pile-up.
This transition requires detectors with excellent spatial resolution,
time-tagging capabilities, and higher radiation tolerance. Low-Gain
Avalanche Detectors (LGADs) have emerged as a promising technology to
meet these challenges.

This seminar explores LGAD developments for precise track timing,
covering detection principles and recent design improvements. We
introduce the potential of silicon carbide (4H-SiC) in LGADs, a
wide-bandgap material that could offer enhanced radiation resistance for
inner tracking layers.

Results from lab tests and beam experiments demonstrate the capabilities
of these advanced detectors, showcasing good gain uniformity, timing
resolution, and energy sensitivity. These findings underscore LGAD
technology's potential for next-generation particle detectors in future
HEP experiments.

When:   Thursday, November 14, 2024 at 2PM
Where:   Dvořák hall, FZU, Pod Vodárenskou věží 1, Prague
