Description
The detector group of the Swiss Light Source (SLS) at the Paul
Scherrer Institut (PSI) in Switzerland has many years of experience
in the development of single photon counting systems like Pilatus,
Mythen and Eiger. Due to the startup of the european XFEL and
SwissFEL the focus of the SLS detector group moved from photon
counting to charge integrating detector systems. The charge
integrating systems overcome many limitations of single photon
counting systems like count rate, energy range or pixel size. In
the talk I will present the charge integrating hybrid pixel detectors
Jungfrau and Mönch and first results using them. Mythen3, a new
single photon counting microstrip system, will also be presented
and compared to Mythen 2.
