The goal of the workshop is to provide a basic training on detectors, an overview of new detectors and tools available at SLAC facilities and an outline of the novel detectors under development for SLAC. In the first part presenters will provide a short overview of the architectures, the working principles, the characteristic parameters and the most common non-idealities of 2D area pixel x-ray detectors for applications at FELs and Storage Rings. Few example case studies will be presented. In the second part new available detector for run18 will be presented together with an overview of the tools for quality data tacking available at LCLS. Participants will get an introduction into how to apply calibration data, use online monitoring to assess their data and tune their experimental setup in real time. In conclusion and overview of the high frame rate detector under developments for LCLS-II/HE will be presented.
The information provided in this workshop will help users to write proposals and design their experiments with our available detectors as well as plan for future experiment based on the characteristics of the detectors under development.
