Design, fabrication and testing of Al/p-Si Schottky and pn junctions for radiation studies

Strip and pixels sensors, fabricated on high resistivity silicon substrate, normally of p-type, are used in detectors for High Energy Physics (HEP) typically in a hybrid detector assembly. Furthermore, and owing to their inherent advantages over hybrid sensors, Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (MAPS) fabricated in CMOS technology have been increasingly implemented in HEP experiments. In all cases, their use in higher radiation areas (HL-LHC and beyond) will require options to improve their radiation hardness and time resolution. These aspects demand a deep understanding of their radiation damage and reliable models to predict their behaviours at high fluences. As a first step, we fabricated several Schottky and n-on-p diodes, to allow a comparison of results and provide a backup solution for test devices, on 6 or 4-inch p-type silicon wafers with 50 μm epitaxial thickness and of doping concentration as they are normally used in HEP detectors and CMOS MAPS devices. In this paper, details of the design and fabrication process, along with test results of the fabricated devices before irradiation, will be provided. Additional test results on irradiated devices will be provided in subsequent publications.

High precision proton beam monitor system concept design on CSNS based on SiC

A high precision beam monitor system based on silicon carbide PIN sensor is designed for China Spallation Neutron Source 1.6 GeV proton beam to monitor the proton beam fluence.The concept design of the beam monitor system is finished together with front-end electronics with silicon carbide PIN sensors, readout system and mechanical system.Several tests are performed to study the performance of each component of the system.The charge collection of the SiC PIN sensors after proton radiation is studied with 80 MeV proton beam for continuous running. Research on the performance of the front-end electronics and readout system is finished for better data acquisition.The uncertainty of proton beam fluence is below 1% in the beam monitor system.

Measured Effectiveness of Deep N-well Substrate Isolation in a 65nm Pixel Readout Chip Prototype

The same charge sensitive preamplifier and discriminator circuit with different isolation strategies has been tested to compare the isolation of both analog and digital circuits from the substrate of a 65nm bulk CMOS process to the isolation of only digital circuits, tying analog ground locally to the substrate. This study will show that the circuit with analog on the substrate and digital in deep N-well has better noise isolation between analog and digital.

Expected performance of the upgrade ATLAS experiment for HL-LHC

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has been successfully delivering proton-proton collision data at the unprecedented center of mass energy of 13 TeV. An upgrade is planned to increase the instantaneous luminosity delivered by the LHC in what is called the HL-LHC, aiming to deliver a total of up 3000 fb$^{-1}$ to 4000 fb$^{-1}$ of data per experiment. To cope with the expected data-taking conditions ATLAS is planning upgrades of the detector. Six Technical Design Reports (TDR) were produced by the ATLAS Collaboration. In these TDRs the physics motivation and benefits of such upgrades are discussed together with details on the upgrade project itself. In this contribution we review the expected performance of the upgraded ATLAS detector and the expected reach for physics measurements as well as the discovery potential for new physics that is expected by the end of the HL-LHC data-taking. The performance of object reconstruction under the expected pile-up conditions will be shown, including a fully re-optimized $b$-tagging algorithm. Important benchmark physics projections including di-Higgs boson production sensitivity will be discussed.

Exotic and Charmonium(-like) states at BESIII

The BESIII experiment at the Beijing Electron Positron Collider (BEPCII) has accumulated the world's largest samples of direct $e^+e^-$ collisions in the $τ$-charm region. From the collected samples, which include $e^+e^-$ annihilations at $J/ψ$, $ψ'$, $ψ$(3770) peaks and in the region from 3.8$\,$GeV to 4.6$\,$GeV, BESIII has produced many new physics results in the spectroscopy, transitions, and decays of charmonium(-like) states. This talk will cover the latest results over a wide range of topics from radiative and hadronic transitions among charmonium states, as well as the productions and decays of the $XYZ$ states.

Recent Results on Light Hadrons from the BESIII Experiment

The BESIII experiment has collected world's largest direct $e^+e^-$ colliding beam data at the $J/ψ$, $ψ'$, $ψ$(3770) and at and around the $Y$(4260). These data have enabled the study of hadrons at unprecedented precisions. We present results on the light hadron spectroscopy, production of hadrons in radiative decays of charmonia, observation of new excited $N^*$ baryons and of anomalous decays of the $η/η'$ states.
