Particle Detectors

Particle Detectors

Lecturer: Dr. Christian Weiser
Time: 4 st., Mo, Di 10-12
Room: SR III
Start: 16.10.2017
Tutorials: 2 st, n.V.

Programme:

In this lecture the principles of particle detection, the basic measurement concepts and technical realisations are presented. After the discussion of individual detector components and detection principles, complete, large-scale detector systems in particle and astro-particle physics are discussed. In addition, some selected applications in medical imaging and other areas are presented.

Topics:

  • Basic interactions of charged and neutral particles
  • Measurement of ionisation
  • Position and momentum measurements
  • Time measurements
  • Energy measurement in calorimeters
  • Particle identification
  • Detector systems in particle and astro-particle physics
  • Selected applications in other areas
