implementation of diamond as detector material in AllPix Squared — •Faiz Ur Rahman Is-haqzai — TU Dortmund, Germany. Kabul University, Afghanistan

Monte-Carlo-based simulation of particle interactions with matter is a very important tool for detector development in high-energy physics and related fields since it allows testing of detector concepts in-silico before investing money and time in building the detectors. A widely used software framework in the high-energy physics community is Allpix Squared, based on GEANT4. It was started to simulate testbeam setups with silicon detectors but has garnered interest from a wider community by now. To extend the Allpix Squared framework and make it useful for further detector development, different sensor materials need to be implemented. My work is intended to implement the Diamond material. Diamond sensors are considered superior to others because of their faster signal generation, better radiation hardness, thermal properties, and ability to operate in harsh conditions. To test the implementation, given sensors are used in real test beam measurements where hits on the device under test (DUT) are extrapolated against a row of well-known detectors, called Beam Telescope. Implementation of Diamond sensor material will significantly contribute to the task of R&D of Diamond sensors by making the simulated prototype simply possible. I will present the status of the implementation of the diamond as detector material in Allpix Squared.
