A new all-silicon tracking detector known as the Inner Tracker (ITk) will replace the current Inner Detector system of the ATLAS experiment in preparation for the High Luminosity LHC. The outermost layers of the ITk will be tiled with ITk Strip modules, where each module is composed of front-end electronics glued to a silicon microstrip sensor. During module pre-production, a critical problem...
We present measurements of the temperature dependent thermal conductivities for carbon composite laminates, thermal interface material, carbon foam and adhesives used for the construction of the Tracker Forward Pixel detector support structures as designed for the HL-LHC CMS upgrade project. The simulation set up for thermal performance using temperature dependent properties is described and...
Future particle detectors will present unprecedented global mechanics challenges in multiple disciplines. For example, FCC detectors are expected to be substantially larger than the current ATLAS and CMS detectors, with structures approximately twice the diameter and two to three times the active area. Furthermore, they will face similarly stringent requirements with other detectors — for...
We will present an overview of the proximity-focusing Ring Imaging Cherenkov (pfRICH) detector developed for the ePIC experiment at the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL). Serving as a key particle identification (PID) subsystem in the backward pseudorapidity region $-3.5 \lesssim \eta \lesssim -1.5$, the pfRICH provides at least 3$\sigma$ PID separation for...
