The Mu3e collaboration is building an ultra thin ~300 million pixel tracking detector in order to search for the the lepton-flavour violating decay of a positive muon to two positrons and and an electron at PSI. To this end, we have designed and tested a series of high-voltage active monolithic pixel sensors (HV-MAPS), the MuPix chips. The talk will present results from the latest fully...
A short summary of technologies for Depleted Monolithic Pixel Sensors (DMAPS) will provided in the talk.
The international JEDI (Jülich Electric Dipole moment Investigation) collaboration is preparing a first-ever direct measurement of the deuteron Electric Dipole Moment (EDM), using the COSY storage ring at Forschungszentrum Jülich (Germany).
A new polarimeter is required to detect the very slow and minuscule polarization change with time: starting
in 2016, we have designed, built and...
Plastic scintillators (including scintillating fibers) coupled to photosensors provide flexible, fast and high granularity detectors which are able to work in high rate environment. The advent of Silicon PhotoMultipliers (SiPMs) has had a strong impact in the development of what we can call a ``new age" of plastic scintillator based detectors. Improved detector performances (better spatial...
