Characterisation of 64 channel SiPM arrays for the SiECA project — •Max Renschler2, Francesca Bisconti1, Andreas Haungs1, Thomas Huber2, Alexander Menshikov3, and William Painter1 for the JEM-EUSO collaboration — 1Institut für Kernphysik (IKP) , KIT — 2Institut für experimentelle Kernphysik (IEKP), KIT — 3Institut für Prozessdatenverarbeitung und Elektronik (IPE), KIT

To investigate the possibility of replacing conventional Multi Anode Photomultiplier Tubes (MAPMTs) with Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs), the 'Silicon Elementary Cell Add-on' (SiECA) is at the moment under development and in its final steps. The aim of SiECA is the detection of UHECRs with SiPMs within the frame of the 'Extreme Universe Space Observatory' (EUSO) pathfinder experiment 'EUSO- Super Pressure Balloon'. In this context, 64 channel SiPM arrays of the newest series manufactured by Hamamatsu have been studied and characterized. The motivation, the idea and the current status of SiECA will be presented and the results of our work on characterizing the newest 64 channel SiPM arrays will be discussed. With the focus on these particular studies, the talk will also give a short overview of the status of JEM-EUSO in general and of its other pathfinder studies.
