We can not observe particles which do not interact Main processes used for particle detection: ionization and scintillation photoelectric effect Cherenkov radiation M.Krawczyk, A.F.Żarnecki Particles and Universe 5 March 31, / 46
14 Ionization Structure of matter Properties of different materials depend on the strength of valence electrons bonding with atomic cores. Insulator All electrons tightly bonded with atoms Conductor Valence electrons can move freely M.Krawczyk, A.F.Żarnecki Particles and Universe 5 March 31, / 46
15 Ionization Ionization Is the phenomena used in most of the particle detectors Charged particle passing through the insulator interacts with valence electrons and passes part of its energy to them, sufficient to liberate them from their atoms. Free charge carriers are created M.Krawczyk, A.F.Żarnecki Particles and Universe 5 March 31, / 46
16 Gas detectors Ionization in gases is very small, of the order of 100 e/cm. Measurement of the corresponding current is not possible, unless we apply electric field strong enough to create an electron avalanche. In the uniform field we are not able to obtain large multiplication factors. M.Krawczyk, A.F.Żarnecki Particles and Universe 5 March 31, / 46

25 Scintillation detectors Scintillation Charged particle passing the medium can ionize or excite the atom. Photons Photons can also interact with electrons in atom. They can transfer all their energy to single electron (photoelectric effect) or only part of it (Compton effect) Return of the atom to its ground state can be accompanied by the photon emission - scintillation In both cases, electron is released from atom. M.Krawczyk, A.F.Żarnecki Particles and Universe 5 March 31, / 46
26 Scintillation detectors Scintillation In some materials, atoms excited by ionizing particle emit photons. Light produced in scintillator can be measured with photomultiplier. Classical set-up: No position measuremen Very good time measurement M.Krawczyk, A.F.Żarnecki Particles and Universe 5 March 31, / 46
27 Scintillation detectors Photomultiplier Single electrons can release single electrons from photocatode. We multiply this charge by applying high voltage between subsequent dynodes. When hitting dynodes accelerated electrons produce secondary electrons - charge avalanche. Single photon, if it produces the first electron (photoelectric effect) results in macroscopic charge. M.Krawczyk, A.F.Żarnecki Particles and Universe 5 March 31, / 46
28 Scintillation detectors Pixelized Photon Detector (PPD) Also called the Silicon Photomultiplier (SiPM). Large number ( 10 3 ) of avalanche photo-diodes on small ( 1mm 2 ) surface - possibility of counting single photons Parameters similar to PMT: gain, response time 1ns Much smaller!

33 Calorimeters All detectors described so far were designed to measure position of the charged particle tracking detectors To measure the particle energy, we have to force it to transfer its full energy to the detector calorimeters.
