The ATLAS experiment is currently preparing for an upgrade of the Inner Tracking for High-Luminosity LHC operation, scheduled to start in 2030. The radiation damage at the maximum integrated luminosity of 4000/fb implies integrated hadron fluencies over 2x1016neq/cm2 and tracking in a very dense environment call for a replacement of the existing Inner Detector. An all-silicon Inner Tracker...

In the framework of the ECFA‑DRD4 project, we have developed high‑precision Time‑of‑Flight (TOF) detectors based on thin, high‑refractive‑index Cherenkov radiators read out by arrays of silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs). The concept exploits the prompt nature of Cherenkov emission to achieve ultimate system‑level time resolution.
The main factors affecting the timing performance were...

ALICE 3 is pursued as the next-generation heavy-ion detector aiming to fully exploit the LHC with different collision systems in Run 5. A key component of the detector is the Vertex Detector, designed to provide a pointing resolution of 10 μm at $p_T$ = 200 MeV/c. It will be surrounded by tracking layers and disks to cover a pseudorapidity range of $|\eta| \leq$ 2.5. It will exploit CMOS...

The PICosecond subMICron (PICMIC) is a new detection concept that intends to simultaneously exploit the remarkable intrinsic spatial and time precision of the MicroChannel Plate (MCP) detectors. PICMIC is based itself on two new concepts. The first is similar in principle to the one used in the GPS and allows, with a limited number of electronic channels, to obtain a precise measurement of...

High-resolution scintillator detectors achieve precise particle tracking through fine segmentation down to a few hundred micrometres. However, this granularity adds detector complexity that can make scaling to large volumes problematic. Moreover, traditional photosensor systems would lead to prohibitively many readout channels, further increasing complexity and cost.
As a solution, we...

Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs) exhibit several desirable characteristics, including single-photon sensitivity, high intrinsic gain, and compact design. This has led to their increasingly widespread adoption in particle and astroparticle physics experiments, as well as a variety of other applications. More recently, SiPMs based on the NUV-MT technology have demonstrated improved...

The Mu3e detector is under construction at the Paul Scherrer Institute. It aims to set a limit on the observation of the SM forbidden lepton flavour violating mu->e+e-e- decay. As an integral part of its design, it incorporates a state-of-the-art depleted monolithic pixel sensor tracking system, comprising an inner vertexing barrel and outer tracking system. These detectors achieve a 0.1%...
