SYQD: Symposium Precise Quantum Detectors in Space, Time and Energy – Semi- and Superconductors in Particle and Condensed Matter Physics

SYQD 1: Precise Quantum Detectors in Space, Time and Energy – Semi- and Superconductors in Particle and Condensed Matter Physics

Thursday, September 11, 2025, 10:45–12:40, ZHG104

Semiconductor detectors based on quantum effects and quantum generation have revolutionised particle detection in recent decades and are also indispensable for future experiments. Electronic detection and measurement of particles with micrometer spatial and tens of picoseconds time resolution have been made possible. In extreme high-flux and high-rate experiments, such as in pp collisions at the LHC, only semiconductor detectors can be operated as track detectors. New developments in the field of superconducting quantum sensors with the additional potential for precise energy detection of particles further establish the close connection between particle and solid-state physics. The symposium addresses particularly new developments leading into the future of particle and quantum detection with four dedicated presentations, including high precision timing, ultra-thin detectors and the potential of single quantum detection devices.
