| Abstract: | The Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) facility is envisaged for the ultimate exploration of the nucleons, the nuclear matter and the strong force, thanks to its wide range of centre-of-mass energy, its large luminosity, and the polarization of its beams. The ePIC detector, designed to cope with the EIC physics potential, involves several Cherenkov radiation-based sub-systems for Particle Identification. They need reliable and effective Single Photo-Electron (SPE) sensors. We report about the timing performance of a LAPPD prototype tested with Cherenkov light produced in a quartz radiator at a CERN PS hadron test beam. Results show a SPE time resolution of 87 ps rms. |
