Workshop on Cutting-Edge X-ray Detector Technologies
This workshop, organized on the 5th and 6th of February 2024, brings together experts in X-ray detectors from various fields to discuss advancements and applications. Originating from the BabyIAXO project, the event covers sessions on rare event detection, space and medical applications, and a poster session. Attendees will also visit beamlines at SOLEIL. Key topics include digital pulse processors, photon counting detectors, and development of detection systems for various experiments.

Introduction Esther Ferrer Ribas, Paco Iguaz Guti rrez, Fabienne Orsini 5th of February 2024 1
Welcome! 65 registrants with 15 students 2
Origin of this workshop In 2019 funding request at the french national funding agency (ANR) for Detector Axion Like Particle Searches (DALPS) for the BabyIAXO experiment DALPS: development and comparison of X-ray technologies (Micromegas, Gridpix, SDD, TES, MMC) for the BabyIAXO experiment Project was funded. Kick-off meeting in 2020. Idea of gathering together X-ray detector experts from different landscapes: dark matter, astrophysics, synchroton radiation, medical detectors and nuclear techniques 2-days transverse workshop @ SOLEIL Thanks to SOLEIL for all the organisation and for hosting us! 3
Program of the workshop Overview talks, specific talks, poster session, SOLEIL visit Sessions: Detection of rare events Space applications Medical and industrial applications X-ray facilities 4
