Reactor institute TU Delft

Host of the EU research project PALADIN. With it's research reactor the institute is providing a positron beam for positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS). Within PALADIN fast annihilation detectors will be developed to push the potential of PALS. Furthermore, the institute has extensive know-how in detector development, especially in digital Silicon Photomultipliers (dSiPM).

Stefan Meyer Institute for subatomic Physics

Partner of the collaboration having a long lasting expertise on instrumentation for high energy physics and is an expert on fast timing applications using Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPM). The former "Institut für Radiumforschung" was a leading institute in the early days of radiation research and contributed to the development of the radio-tracer method, a method used for medical imaging (e.g. PET). It is an institute of the Austrian Academy of Sciences and consortium partner for the EU research project PALADIN.

Institute for Atomic and Subatomic Physics / TU Vienna

Providing know-how in Monte Carlo simulation tools (Geant4, GATE). The member is located at MedAustron, an ion therapy center in Austria currently under construction. Once beam will be available, MedAustron will be offering the perfect environment to develop and test new detector approaches. Contact: Dr. A. Hirtl

Philips Digital Photon Counting

Inventor of the Digital Photon Counter (DPC). DPCs provide ultrafast single photon detection based on miniature digital single photon avalanche diodes. Philips Digital Photon Counting (PDPC) is consortium member of the EU research project PALADIN.
