Description for Evolution of Silicon Sensor Technology in Particle Physics
Paperback. The technological evolution of silicon detectors and their impact on high-energy particle physics are described in this monograph, which draws on the author's first-hand experience. Both the basic principles and final large-scale applications are covered. Series: Springer Tracts in Modern Physics. Num Pages: 214 pages, 352 black & white illustrations, 18 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: PHP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 11. Weight in Grams: 334.
In the post era of the Z and W discovery, after the observation of Jets at UA1 and UA2 at CERN, John Ellis visioned at a HEP conference at Lake Tahoe, California in 1983 “To proceed with high energy particle physics, one has to tag the avour of the quarks!” This statement re ects the need for a highly precise tracking device, being able to resolve secondary and tertiary vertices within high-particle densities. Since the d- tance between the primary interaction point and the secondary vertex is proportional tothelifetimeoftheparticipatingparticle,itisanexcellentquantitytoidentifypar- cle avour in a very fast and precise way.
