摘要: Silicon Particle Detector, comprising an absorption region (10) capable of generating electrical charges in response to a particle passing therethrough, a first and a second electrode (20, 30) arranged on opposite sides of the absorption region (10), wherein the first electrode (20) is segmented into a plurality of pads (20a), and a plurality of multiplication layers (40) able to avalanche-multiply the electric charges generated in the absorption region (10), each of the multiplication layers (40) being arranged beneath a respective pad (20a) and interposed between it and the absorption region (10), each multiplication layer (40) is surrounded by a respective protection ring (50) formed by the material of the pad (20a). The protection ring (50) is laterally interposed between the multiplication layer (40) and the absorption region (10).

摘要: Systems and methods for measuring mono-energetic hadron beams are provided. Such systems and methods include a first detection unit having a planar sensor with a sensing area segmented into a matrix of pixels, each pixel being adapted to provide a transit signal indicative of transit of a particle therethrough, and a counting circuit coupled to the sensor for providing an output signal indicative of number of particles Np of the beam crossing said sensing area in a time interval, based on the transit signals provided by said pixels, and a second detection unit arranged downstream of the first detection unit which includes at least one ionization detector for providing an output signal proportional to the total charge Qion released by the beam (B) in the ionization detector in such time interval.
