Performance Tests of novel Scintillator Materials and Readout devices for the CALIFA@R3B — •Christian Sürder, Guillermo Fernández Martinez, Ilja Homm, Alexander Ignatov, Tania Ilieva, Thorsten Kröll, Han-Bum Rhee, and Mirko von Schmid — Institut für Kernphysik, Technische Universität Darmstadt, Germany
CALIFA (CALorimeter for the In Flight detection of γ-rays and light charged pArticles) is part of the R3B project. It will be realized at FAIR (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research), which is built at the GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung GmbH. The CALIFA consists of the Barrel part, covering central angles and the EndCap part for the forward angles. The requirement to detect high energy gamma rays with good efficiency and the presence of a magnetic field lead to numerous implications on the detector technology. In this work we investigate the possibility to use novel scintillating materials, namely LaBr3:(Ce) and CeBr3 with APDs (Avalanche Photo Diode) and SiPM (Silicon PhotoMultiplier) readout.
This work is supported by BMBT (06DA9040I, 05P12RDFN8) and HIC for FAIR.
