Dear Colleagues,



Please welcome to the next PaRaDeSEC seminar on *Friday, the 17th of
January* given by *Dr. Nicola Pacifico* from *CERN*.

The location and time are *IRB, Ivan Supek lecture room at 10:30*. The
topic of the seminar is „*Testing materials for their *

*radiation hardness: The experience at CERN for the HL-LHC experiment
upgrades*“. The abstract is found below.



We hope to see many of you.



Best regards,



On behalf of the PaRaDeSEC project

Milana Milovanovic







*Abstract: *

The Detector Technology group of the CERN Experimental Physics Department
has initiated a campaign aimed at identifying

radiation hard materials for their use in HL-LHC experiment upgrades. The
irradiation is performed mainly with gamma photons

from a 60Co source, at different facilities. The sample typology and their
testing are conceived to allow the qualification with

one or more commonly employed ASTM and/or ISO standards.



In this seminar an overview of the characterization efforts will be given,
describing the irradiation facilities, with their specific

advantages and drawbacks, the employed testing standards and the testing
infrastructures as well as an overview of good

practices required in the selection and testing of materials for harsh
radiation environments.



*Career: *

Dr. Nicola Pacifico obtained his PhD in 2012 from the Bari University in
Italy with a thesis titled "Radiation Damage Study on

Innovative Silicon Sensors for the CMS tracker upgrade". While working at
CERN on his PhD, Nicola Pacifico was awarded a

Prestigious Marie Curie Early Stage Researcher Fellowship. Then from 2012
until 2016 he was a researcher with University

of Bergen (Norway) based at CERN. During this time he played a key role in
the AEgIS experiment at CERN. He was a responsible

person for the development of the AEgIS silicon annihilation detector at
CERN, a deputy Technical Coordinator of the AEgIS

experiment, a project leader for the setup of secondary antiproton beamline
in the AegIS experimental zone. In 2016 he got a

staff position at the Detector Technology group of the CERN Experimental
Physics Department. One of the main duties of

Dr. Pacifico is a coordination of the irradiation campaign for materials in
HL-LHC experiment upgrades.
