This week we had our first dedicated LGAD test beam at the DESY II test beam facility. During the testbeam campaign two different sets of TI-LGADS with different pixel sizes (130 um & 55 um) were evaluated. The aim of these measurements was to obtain information about the efficiency, spatial and temporal resolution of the sensors.

First testbeam of the year

Last week we had our first testbeam of the year. This time, we took data in area T24 of the DESY II test beam facility to test Low Gain Avalanch Diodes (LGADs) at different voltages and under different beam incidence angles.
