Humidity Sensors for High Energy Physics Applications: A Review

Sandro Carrara, Andromachi Tsirou, Amar Kapic

Modern silicon-based detectors for high-energy physics operate in an experimental environment with sub-zero temperatures. At those temperatures, even low traces of humidity will produce vapor condensation with damages to the detectors. Monitoring relative ...
