AbstraktAbstract

An optical readout and shielding against electromagnetic pulses (EMP) has been developed as part of the ELI Beamlines/IEAP project for hybrid silicon pixel detector Timepix and it significantly improved its resistance to electromagnetic pulses (EMP). The setup was successfully tested under vacuum at Prague Asterix Laser System (PALS) during experiments with laser pulses of energies up to 700 J and duration of 350 ps bombarding thin solid target. We present our experience with the new setup and its description. The recorded spectrometric data were analyzed and interpreted in a context of an independent experimental campaign run in parallel
