Detectors and electronics for Super-LHC: IRRADIATION RESULTS

This article presents the irradiation results of detectors and electronics for the Super-LHC. The experiments were performed by the SMART Collaboration and the Department of Information Engineering at the University of Padova. Measurements were conducted on various types of detectors that were irradiated with neutrons and protons at different fluences. The effects of irradiation and annealing on the detectors' performance were analyzed. Additionally, the impact of proton irradiation on the electronics was also studied.
