Beam telescopes and pixel detectors constitute fundamental components in modern particle physics experiments, providing precise tracking and measurement of charged particle trajectories in test beam ...

The beam is off, but high energy physics research is very much on at one of the world’s premier particle physics labs. The requirements of social distancing have prompted scientists at the U.S.

This circuit is presented as an alternative to the IR beam break detector featured in the June 2009 issue (Silicon Chip). In order to make it relatively insensitive to ambient light, it uses a ...

A quantum trick based on interferometric measurements allows a team of researchers at LMU to detect even the smallest movements of a laser beam with extreme sensitivity.
