TITLE: New Gaseous Tracking Detectors and a new single soft photon
CONTACT: Shoji Uno
SPEAKER: Prof. Harry van der Graaf  (NIKHEF)
LANGUAGE: English
ABSTRACT: The GridPix detector consists of a pixel chip with an electron multiplication stage. It is sensitive for single electrons, created in an ionising event in the gas-filled (drift) space. Tipsy is a new pixelised photon sensor in which each pixel is equipped with some 5 dynodes. Given the small pixel source capacitance, all soft photons are measured individually with an unprecedented spatial- and time resolution (10 micron, 1 ps, resp).
