Abstract
The Entrance and Time-Of-Flight (TOF) detectors of the muEDM experiment at PSI are presented here. The detectors are made of very thin scintillating foils coupled to Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs). The obtained results, in conditions very similar to the final setup, are very promising: The expected detector performances are addressed and satisfy the experiment requirements, with a detection efficiency above 95% and an intrinsic time resolution of ps.
期刊介绍:
Section A of Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research publishes papers on design, manufacturing and performance of scientific instruments with an emphasis on large scale facilities. This includes the development of particle accelerators, ion sources, beam transport systems and target arrangements as well as the use of secondary phenomena such as synchrotron radiation and free electron lasers. It also includes all types of instrumentation for the detection and spectrometry of radiations from high energy processes and nuclear decays, as well as instrumentation for experiments at nuclear reactors. Specialized electronics for nuclear and other types of spectrometry as well as computerization of measurements and control systems in this area also find their place in the A section.
Theoretical as well as experimental papers are accepted.
