Micro Pattern Gaseous Detectors Laboratory (MPGD-Lab)

R&D e caratterizzazione di rivelatori a gas, di tipologia Micro Pattern Gaseous Detector (MPGD). Il laboratorio è attrezzato con un sistema di irraggiamento di soft x-rays e sistemi di acquisizione del segnale basati su logica NIM e varie tipologie di ASIC. Effettuiamo caratterizzazione e controllo qualità di rivelatori MPGD per l’esperimento CMS e per esperimenti ai futuri acceleratori. Siamo impegnati nello sviluppo di un calorimetro a campionamento basato su MPGD resisitivi di ultima generazione e nello sviluppo di rivelatori MPGD ultra veloci. Il laboratorio offre le proprie risorse per le lezioni di laboratorio del corso di “Collider Physics” (CdL magistrale in Physics) e per lo sviluppo di tesi di laurea, dottorato e progetti di ricerca post-dottorato.
