Detector Laboratory is a national permanent infrastructure specialized in the instrumentation of particle and nuclear physics. It is a joint laboratory between Helsinki Institute of Physics (HIP) and the Department of Physics at the University of Helsinki, especially the Division of Particle and Astrophysics (PAP). The Laboratory provides premises, equipment, expertise and technical support for research projects on developing semiconductor, gas-filled and scintillator detector technologies.
The Laboratory participates in the instrumentation and analysis of CMS, ALICE and MoEDAL-MAPP experiments at CERN, and of NuSTAR experiment at FAIR. In addition, the laboratory is active in studies of novel semiconductor materials such as CdTe, CZT and GaAs.
