The ATLAS Forward Proton (AFP) detector is designed to identify events in which one or two protons emerge intact from the LHC collisions. AFP will consist of a tracking detector, to measure the momentum of the protons, and a time of flight system to reduce the background from multiple proton-proton interactions. Following an extensive qualification period, 3D silicon pixel sensors were selected for the AFP tracker. The sensors were produced at CNM (Barcelona) during 2014. The tracker module assembly and quality control was performed at IFAE during 2015. The assembly of the first AFP arm and the following installation in the LHC tunnel took place in February 2016. This paper reviews the fabrication process of the AFP tracker focusing on the pixel modules.

For the Phase-II Upgrade of the ATLAS Detector, its Inner Detector, consisting of silicon pixel, silicon strip and transition radiation sub-detectors, will be replaced with an all new 100 % silicon tracker, composed of a pixel tracker at inner radii
and a strip tracker at outer radii. The future ATLAS strip tracker will include 11,000 silicon sensor modules in the central region (barrel) and 7,000 modules in the forward region (end-caps), which are foreseen to be constructed over a period of 3.5 years. The construction of each module consists of a series of assembly and quality control steps, which were engineered to be identical for all production sites. In order to develop the tooling and procedures for assembly and testing of these modules, two series of major prototyping programs were conducted: an early program using readout chips designed using a 250 nm fabrication process (ABCN-25) and a subsequent program using a follow-up chip set made using 130 nm processing (ABC130 and HCC130 chips). This second generation of readout chips was used for an extensive prototyping program that produced around 100 barrel-type modules and contributed significantly to the development of the final module layout. This paper gives an overview of the components used in ABC130 barrel modules, their assembly procedure and findings resulting from their tests.
The study of volcanic inner density distributions using cosmic muons is an innovative method, which is still in a stage of development. This technique can be used to determine the average density along the muon track, as well as the density distribut
ion within a given volume, by measuring the attenuation of the cosmic muon flux going through it. The aim is to study the volcano domes and magmatic conduit systems within a given time-interval. Our first application will be the Popocatepetl, a large active andesitic stratovolcano built in the Trans-Mexican volcanic arc. Its recent activity includes emplacement of a lava dome, with explosions and frequent scoria and ash emissions. This study is part of a longer-term project of volcanic hazard monitoring that includes other Mexican volcanoes, like the Colima. Muon detector design depends on the volume-of-interest dimensions, as well as on the image-taking frequency required to detect dynamic density variations. Our muon-tracker proposal includes 3 planes, each having 16 independent position-sensitive modules consisting on rectangular aluminum tubes ($10x20x320cm^{3}$) filed with a liquid scintillator. The light collection inside each module is carried out using a wave-length-shifting (WLS) fiber matrix, running along the aluminum-tube length, which is bundled together at the tube extremes. The luminous signal readout is carried out using one SiPM optically coupled to the WLS bundle at each modules end. The main detector characteristics, such as time resolution, surface uniformity, and signal amplitude reconstruction using the time-over-threshold technique, will be presented.
The ATLAS experiment at the LHC will replace its current inner tracker system for the HL-LHC era. 3D silicon pixel sensors are being considered as radiation-hard candidates for the innermost layers of the new fully silicon-based tracking detector. 3D
sensors with a small pixel size of $mathrm{50 times 50~mu m^{2}}$ and $mathrm{25 times 100~mu m^{2}}$ compatible with the first prototype ASIC for the HL-LHC, the RD53A chip, have been studied in beam tests after uniform irradiation to $mathrm{5 times 10^{15}~n_{eq}/cm^{2}}$. An operation voltage of only 50 V is needed to achieve a 97% hit efficiency after this fluence.
The inner drift chamber of the BESIII is encountering serious aging problem after five years running. For the first layer, the decrease in gas gain is about 26% from 2009 to 2013. The upgrade of the inner tracking detector has become an urgent proble
m for the BESIII experiment. An inner tracker using CMOS pixel sensors is an important candidate because of its great advantages on spatial resolution and radiation hardness. In order to carry out a Monte Carlo study on the expected performance, a Geant4-based full simulation for the silicon pixel detector has been implemented. The tracking method combining the silicon pixel inner tracker and outer drift chamber has been studied and a preliminary reconstruction software was developed. The Monte Carlo study shows that the performances including momentum resolution, vertex resolution and the tracking efficiency are significantly improved due to the good spatial resolution and moderate material budget of the silicon pixel detector.
Using the simulation framework of the SiD detector to study the Higgs -> mumu decay channel showed a considerable gain in signal significance could be achieved through an increase in charged particle momentum resolution. However more detailed simulat
ions of theZ -> mumu decay channel demonstrated that significant improvement in the resolution could not be achieved through an increase in tracker granularity. Conversely detector stability studies into missing/dead vertex layers using longer lived particles displayed an increase in track resolution. The existing 9.15 cm x 25 {mu}m silicon strip geometry was replaced with 100 x 100 micrometers silicon pixels improving secondary vertex resolution by a factor of 100. Study into highly collimated events through the use of dense jets showed that momentum resolution can be increased by a factor of 2, greatly improving signal significance but requiring a reduction in pixel size to 25 micrometers. An upgrade of the tracker granularity from the 9.15 cm strips to micrometer sized pixels requires an increase in number and complexity of sensor channels yet provides only a small improvement in the majority of linear collider physics.
