Single photon counting hybrid pixel detector technology with short gate capability has been chosen to achieve time-resolved pump-probe experiments in the energy range from 5 to 15 keV at SOLEIL Synchrotron. The detector prototypes, based on the UFXC32k [1] readout chip, were developed for this initial purpose due to various very interesting performances of the chip, such as high readout speed,...
The Mu3e experiment at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) searches for the charged lepton flavour violating decay $\mu^+ \rightarrow e^+ e^+ e^-$.
The experiment aims for an ultimate sensitivity of one in $10^{16}$ $\mu$ decays.
The first phase of the experiment, currently under construction, will reach a branching ratio sensitivity of $2\cdot10^{-15}$ by observing $10^{8}$ $\mu$ decays per...
The CMS detector will undergo a major upgrade for the Phase-2 of the LHC program: the High-Luminosity LHC. The upgraded CMS detector will be read out at an unprecedented data rate exceeding 50 Tbit/s, with a Level-1 trigger selecting events at a rate of 750 kHz, and an average event size reaching 8.5 MB. The Phase-2 CMS back-end electronics will be based on the ATCA standard, with node boards...
