Description

The High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider will produce a higher number of primary proton-proton collisions per bunch crossing (pileup) with respect to the Large Hadron Collider. To reduce the effect of pileup on the physics analysis timing detectors will be used. ATLAS and CMS will be using the Low Gain Avalanche Detector (LGAD) for time measurements. The CERN Solid State Detectors team is planning to do timing studies of detectors using a beta setup, with possibilities of varying temperature and bias voltage. A reference detector has been characterized with time resolution ranging from 34 to 39 ps for the setup.
