    The cluster counting technique represents a very promising alternative to the traditional ways of integrating the ionization charge for particle identification in drift chambers. It takes advantage of the Poisson nature of the primary ionization process and offers a more statistically robust method to infer mass information. Simulation studies prove that cluster counting allows reaching a...

    Particle identification is a crucial aspect of most particle physics experiments.

    Several compounds can be utilised as cryogenic detectors; the main requirement is a small thermal capacitance, which allows an high sensitivity and a fast thermalisation time. Depending on the physics applications, several challenges have to be faced. The pileup between events depositing energy in a time interval faster than the thermalisation time can be non negligible when the source is...
