Building a Microelectronics Foundation for Tomorrow’s Detectors
Building a Microelectronics Foundation for Tomorrow’s Detectors The challenge: smarter chips in harsher places Particle physics detectors have always pushed electronics to their limits. The next generation of tracking systems and calorimeters will depend critically on dense, intelligent, low power and radiation-hard microelectronics: front-end ASICs that can survive for decades in harsh environments, having their

New Staff Members and Fellows
New Staff Members and Fellows Maximilian Babeluk Hi, I’m Max. I recently joined the ALICE ITS3 team, where I work on sensor testing, functional verification, and in the future also chip design – particularly on MOSAIX. My main activities include testing and yield assessment across multiple integration levels (wafer probing to system tests), including data

ALICE trigger system: Present and Future
ALICE trigger system: Present and Future The purpose of any trigger system is to select an event sample strongly enriched in physics processes of interest, while rejecting those not of interest, and to do so in such a way as to make efficient use of the available detectors. The prime objective of the ALICE experiment
