Investigation of a direction sensitive sapphire detector stack at the 5 GeV electron beam at DESY-II
Investigation of a direction sensitive sapphire detector stack at the 5 GeV electron beam at DESY-II
Extremely radiation hard sensors are needed in particle physics experiments to instrument the region near the beam pipe. Examples are beam halo and beam loss monitors at the Large Hadron Collider, FLASH or XFEL. Currently artificial diamond sensors are widely used. In this paper single crystal sapphire sensors are considered …
