Enhanced Readout System for Timepix3-Based Detectors in Large-Scale Scientific Facilities
This work presents a novel readout system for the Timepix3-based detector, designed specifically for large-scale facilities, such as particle accelerators. The authors begin by outlining the challenges associated with utilizing the Timepix3 detector over long distances. This paper proposes a solution to these challenges and describes its practical implementation. Beam test results are provided to demonstrate the system's performance, with a particular focus on time-of-flight measurements. Additionally, the authors address the complexities of operating in challenging environments, particularly those involving radiation and magnetic fields.
