WHAT IS A PARTICLE DETECTOR ?

An apparatus able to

detect the passage of a particle and/or localise it and/or measure its momentum or energy and/or identify its nature and/or measure its time of arrival …..

HOW ARE PARTICLES DETECTED ?

In order to detect a particle it must

interact with the material of the detector transfer energy in some recognisable way and leave a signal.

Detection of particles happens via their energy loss in the material they traverse.

  • 1. Particles interact with matter

depends on particle and material

  • 2. Energy loss transfer to detectable signal

depends on the material

  • 3. Signal collection

depends on signal and type of detection

  • 4. BUILD a SYSTEM

ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERACTION PARTICLE - MATTER

19

Interaction with the atomic electrons. The incoming particle loses energy and the atoms are exited or ionised. Interaction with the atomic nucleus. The incoming particle is deflected causing multiple scattering of the particle in the material. During this scattering a Bremsstrahlung photon can be emitted In case the particle’s velocity is larger than the velocity of light in the medium, the resulting EM shockwave manifests itself as Cherenkov radiation. When the particle crosses the boundary between two media, there is a probability of 1% to produce an Xray photon called Transition radiation.

Scattering of charged particles off the atoms in the mdium causes a change of direction The statistical sum of many such small angle scattering results in a gaussian angular distribution with a width given by

IONISATION AND EXCITATION Charged particles traversing material and exciting and ionising atoms. The average energy loss of the incoming particle by the process, is to a good approximation, described by the Bethe- Block formula. MULTIPLE SCATTERING AND BREMSSTRAHLUNG Incoming particles are scattering off the atomic nuclei which are partially shielded by the atomic electrons. This scattering imposes a lower level on the momentum resolution of the spectrometer, when measuring the particle momentum by deflection of the particle trajectory in the magnetic field. The deflection of the particle on the nucleus results in an acceleration that causes the emission of Bremsstrahlung photons. The photons in turn produce e+e- pairs in the vicinity of the nucleus, which causes the EM cascade. This effect depends on m-2: only relevant for electrons. CHERENKOV RADIATION If a particle propagates in a material with velocity > speed of light in this material, C radiation is emitted at a characteristic angle that depends on the particle velocity and the refractive index of the medium TRANSITION RADIATION If a charged particle is crossing the boundary between two materials of different dielectric permittivity, there is a certain probability for emission of an X- ray photon. HADRONIC INTERACTION Incoming hadrons on a material will interact with the nucleus and create a shower composed of hadrons, electrons, photon. A fraction of the energy is lost in the form of binding energy or neutrinos.
