Novel Semiconductor Detectors for Fundamental
and Applied Research
  

Leader:     G.A. Shelkov
Deputy:     V.A. Rozhkov

Participating countries and international organizations:
Belarus, Canada, CERN, Croatia, Cuba, Czech Republic, Egypt, Germany, Israel, Italy, Japan, New Zealand, Poland, Romania, Russia, South Africa, Switzerland, Ukraine, United Kingdom, USA, Vietnam.


Issues addressed and main goals of research:
Conducting scientific and methodological studies of high-resolution hybrid matrix detectors for high-energy physics and the atomic nucleus as well as semiconductor detectors with increased rediation resistance.
Development of scientific cooperation with research institutes to study the possibility of using the developed detectors in other fields of science and technology (primarily in the field of healthcare and mining).
Development of infrastructure for studies of the properties of semiconductor detectors, including particle beam tests for use by JINR groups and institutes of the participating countries.
Study of formation of defects in materials as a result of various physical influences.
Extension of the existing "experimental" base of PAS.
Creation of facilities and experiments on accelerators to obtain new information to verify theoretical ideas in the processes of strong, weak and electromagnetic interactions of elementary particles and light nuclei at intermediate energies.
Creating a setup for carrying out measurements with test electron beams.

Expected results in the current year:
  • Development of a prototype and software for the “head” tomograph.

  • Development of prototype detectors, electronics based on FPGA and software for Timepix4.

  • Organization of collaboration with biophysicists of the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology and Moscow State University using the MARS microtomograph.

  • Creating a prototype module of a compact radiation-resistant electromagnetic calorimeter in conjunction with the FCAL collaboration.

  • Completion of the ordering system of the monochromatic positron beam and commissioning of the PALS spectrometer on a monochromatic positron beam.

  • Testing the method of ion etching on the created etching system and applying it to study thin-film multilayer materials.

  • Conducting experiments with Active Target (GDH).

  • Commissioning of the LINAC-200.
