1. 1. Characterisation of the LYCCA Double-Sided Silicon Strip Detectors

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik

   Author : Marwan Mohamed; [2023]
   Keywords : DSSD LYCCA HISPEC FAIR Characterisation; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : The goal of this thesis work is to describe the methods used and perform comprehensive testing of the Double-Sided Silicon-Strip Detectors (DSSD) prior to their implementation in the Lund-York-Cologne CAlorimeter (LYCCA) detector. In the framework of this project, the DSSD characterisation was carried out to ensure specification compliance prior to their "in-kind contribution" delivery to the HISPEC experiment at the NUSTAR collaboration.

3. 2. Dead layer determination for the new implantation detector of the LUNDIUM decay station

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Eleftheria Kosta; [2022]
   Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : The Nuclear Structure Group in Lund, focuses on nuclear spectroscopy of decays of rare isotopes. A new decay station, called LUNDIUM, is currently being built, which will involve silicon and germanium detectors for the study of these nuclei. This thesis focuses on the characterization of one of the new silicon detectors, the implantation one. READ MORE

4. 3. Assessment of the Capability for Vetoing Beta-Decay Events in the Lundium Decay Station

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Tanvir Sayed; [2022]
   Keywords : Radioactivity; Decays; Radiation; Ionisation; Superheavies; Exotic isotopes; Decay spectroscopy; Semiconductors; Silicon-Strip Detectors; Lundium; Vetoing; Electron spread; Particle identification; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Alpha decay spectroscopy using the latest and most sensitive detector setup as well as fast sampling read-out electronics has become very important for discovery and analysis of short-lived nuclei created in collision experiments in the laboratory. The Nuclear Structure Group in Lund is currently developing the Lundium Decay Station for use in comprehensive nuclear spectroscopy of decays for rare isotopes, particularly in the heavy & superheavy region.

5. 4. Improved Spatial Resolution in Segmented Silicon Strip Detectors

   University essay from KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

   Author : Eva Bergström; Ida Johansson; [2019]
   Keywords : computed tomography; photon-counting; silicon strip detector; spatial resolution; machine learning; classification; datortomografi; fotonräknande; kiselstrippdetektor; spatiell upplösning; maskininlärning; klassificering;

   Abstract : Semiconductor detectors are attracting interest for use in photon-counting spectral computed tomography. In order to obtain a high spatial resolution, it is of interest to find the photon interaction position. READ MORE

6. 5. Characterization of Double Sided Silicon Strip Detectors from LYCCA modules for FAIR

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Dalia Farghaly; [2019]
   Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Begun in 2010, the Lund-York-Cologne-CAlorimeter, LYCCA, collaboration is targeted at discovering exotic nuclear reaction products whilst implementing the possibility of both position tracking and measuring residual energies of relativistic particles. Each LYCCA module is composed of a double sided silicon detector and 9 CsI(Tl) detectors. READ MORE
