The PICOSEC-Micromegas (PICOSEC-MM) detector is a novel gaseous detector designed for precise timing resolution in experimental measurements. It eliminates time jitter from charged particles in ionization gaps by using extreme UV Cherenkov light emitted in a crystal, detected by a Micromegas photodetector with an appropriate photocathode.

The PICOSEC Micromegas detector is a~precise-timing gaseous detector based on a~Cherenkov radiator coupled with a~semi-transparent photocathode and a~Micromegas amplifying structure, targeting a~time resolution of tens of picoseconds for minimum ionising particles. Initial single-pad prototypes have demonstrated a~time resolution below 25 ps, prompting ongoing developments to adapt the concept for High Energy Physics applications, where sub-nanosecond precision is essential for event separation, improved track reconstruction and particle identification.

Spatial resolution improvements with finer-pitch GEMs
/ Flöthner, K.J. (CERN ; Bonn U., HISKP) ; Scharenberg, L. (CERN) ; Brask, A. (Aarhus U. (main) ; CERN) ; Brunbauer, F. (CERN) ; Garcia, F. (Helsinki Inst. of Phys.) ; Janssens, D. (CERN) ; Ketzer, B. (Bonn U., HISKP) ; Lisowska, M. (CERN ; U. Paris-Saclay) ; Muller, H. (CERN ; Bonn U.) ; Oliveri, E. (CERN) et al.
Gas Electron Multipliers (GEMs) are used in many particle physics experiments, employing their 'standard' configuration with amplification holes of 140 um pitch in a hexagonal pattern. However, the collection of the charge cloud from the primary ionisation electrons from the drift region of the detector into the GEM holes affects the position information from the initial interacting particle.

To enhance the performance of micro-patterned gaseous detectors (MPGDs) to meet thechallenging requirements of future high energy physics (HEP) experiments, two-dimensional (2D)materials are attractive candidates to address the back flow of positive ions, which affectsdetector performance by distorting electric field lines. In this context, graphene is promisingto work as selective filter for ion back flow suppression, being transparent to electrons while atthe same time blocking ions. [...]
