High Rate and High Precision Timing and Calorimeter Detectors

Abstract: High precision timing, high rate calorimeters, and radiation resistance are becoming an important issue in particle physics especially in Energy and Intensity Frontiers. We discuss doped Zinc Oxide (ZnO:Ga or GZO; ZnO:X where X is Al, Cu or others) as a very fast scintillator and wavelength shifter (WLS), Total internal reflection films, and PMT capable of counting at 300 MHz with 10 ps timing precision, with superior radiation resistance.
