Chronopixel Vertex Detectors for Future Linear Colliders

Over the past few years we have developed, in collaboration with the SARNOFF Corporation, a design of a Monolithic CMOS Pixel Detector for ILC Vertex Detectors. The unique feature of this design is that each hit is accompanied by a time tag with sufficient precision to assign each hit to a particular bunch crossing of the ILC (thus the name Chronopixel). This reduces the occupancy even in the innermost Vertex Detector layer to negligible levels, allowing a robust Vertex Detector even in the case that the backgrounds in the ILC are higher than presently estimated.

Status of the Chronopixel Project

Other the past few years we have developed a monolithic CMOS pixel detector design for the ILC in collaboration with the SARNOFF Corporation. The unique feature of this design is the recorded time tag for each hit, allowing assignment of the hit to a particular bunch crossing (thus the name Chronopixel). The prototype design was completed in 2007. The first set of prototype devices was fabricated in 2008. We have developed a detailed testing plan and have designed the test electronics in collaboration with SLAC. Testing is expected to start early in 2009.

A Test Facility for the International Linear Collider at SLAC End Station A, for Prototypes of Beam Delivery and IR Components

The SLAC Linac can deliver damped bunches with ILC parameters for bunch charge and bunch length to End Station A. A 10Hz beam at 28.5 GeV energy can be delivered there, parasitic with PEP-II operation. We plan to use this facility to test prototype components of the Beam Delivery System and Interaction Region. We discuss our plans for this ILC Test Facility and preparations for carrying out experiments related to collimator wakefields and energy spectrometers. We also plan an interaction region mockup to investigate effects from backgrounds and beam-induced electromagnetic interference.
