Radiation damage and recovery of SiPMs exposed to low-momentum muon beams for innovative scintillation-based muon beam monitors

Silicon PhotoMultipliers (SiPMs) are among the standard devices for light detection in scintillator detectors. Some detector designs require these devices to be placed in radioactive areas or directly exposed to particle beams. Specifically, the damage from exposure to low-momentum muons is particularly important, as t...
