Electronics for the camera of the First G-APD Cherenkov Telescope (FACT) for ground based gamma-ray astronomy
(2012)Journal of InstrumentationWithin the FACT project, we construct a new type of camera based on Geiger-mode avalanche photodiodes (G-APDs). Compared to photomultipliers, G-APDs are more robust, need a lower operation voltage and have the potential of higher photon-detection efficiency and lower cost, but were never fully tested in the harsh environments of Cherenkov telescopes. The FACT camera consists of 1440 G-APD pixels and readout channels, based on the DRS4 ...Journal Article
