The Pixel Luminosity Telescope: a detector for luminosity measurement at CMS using silicon pixel sensors

André Donadon Servelle, Alexis Kalogeropoulos, Joanna Malgorzata Wanczyk, Valérie Scheurer

The Pixel Luminosity Telescope is a silicon pixel detector dedicated to luminosity measurement at the CMS experiment at the LHC. It is located approximately 1.75 m from the interaction point and arranged into 16 "telescopes", with eight telescopes installe ...

Performance of the MALTA telescope

Edoardo Charbon, Francesco Piro, Abhishek Sharma

MALTA is part of the Depleted Monolithic Active Pixel sensors designed in Tower 180 nm CMOS imaging technology. A custom telescope with six MALTA planes has been developed for test beam campaigns at SPS, CERN, with the ability to host several devices under ...

Scalar analytical expressions for the field dependence of Zernike polynomials in asymmetric optical systems with circular symmetric surfaces

Toralf Scharf, Alessandro Grosso

In this paper we derive scalar analytical expressions describing the full field dependence of Zernike polynomials in optical systems without symmetries. We consider the general case of optical systems constituted by arbitrarily tilted and decentered circul ...

Development and Characterisation of Silicon Photomultiplier Multichannel Arrays for the Readout of a Large Scale Scintillating Fibre Tracker

Axel Kuonen

The current LHCb detector will continue collecting data until the long shutdown 2 (2019/2020). It will be upgraded in order to operate at higher luminosity. To achieve this, two major changes are required. First the Level-0 hardware trigger limited to 1,M ...

Gradient-Based Correction of Chromatic Aberration in the Joint Acquisition of Color and Near-Infrared Images

Sabine Süsstrunk, Yue Lu, Zahra Sadeghipoor Kermani

Chromatic aberration distortions, such as wavelength-dependent blur caused by imperfections in photographic lenses, have long been studied in color imaging. The problem becomes more challenging to solve in the case of color and near-infrared joint acquisit ...

Correcting spherical aberrations induced by an unknown medium through determination of its refractive index and thickness

Pramod Rastogi, Daniel Iwaniuk

In imaging and focusing applications, spherical aberration induces axial broadening of the point spread function (PSF). A transparent medium between lens and object of interest induces spherical aberration. We propose a method that first obtains both the p ...
