    WG9 Scintillators and photodetectors

    Silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) are increasingly becoming the standard in cutting-edge photodetection applications, offering significant advantages over classical photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) such as lower cost, insensitivity to magnetic fields, and fast temporal response. In the field of high-energy astrophysics, these properties are critical for the next generation of Ground-Based Gamma-ray...

    WG9 Scintillators and photodetectors

    The Nuclear Innovation Unit at CIEMAT covers a broad scientific program on neutron-induced reaction cross-section measurements (capture, fission, activation and charged particle production), β-delayed neutron emission, (α,n) reaction studies, and is also involved in applications such as the characterization of nuclear waste and neutron dosimetry.
    We have developed over the years several kinds...

  3. 30. Fast Timing Experiments with Hamamatsu SiPMs and Fast PMTs Coupled to Scintillators

    WG9 Scintillators and photodetectors

    PMTs have long dominated fast timing experiments for their excellent resolution and stability, but their high cost and limited availability have driven interest in SiPMs. SiPMs are being increasingly used, but when grouped into arrays to read large scintillators, their timing is sub-optimal.
    This work describes the study of the coincidence time resolution (CTR) of several individual SiPM...
