The Electron-Proton/Ion Collider experiment (ePIC) will be the first detector at the future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC), which will be built at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The central region of ePIC follows a standard collider detector layout optimized for electron-ion Deep Inelastic Scattering (DIS) with low-mass tracking, high precision electromagnetic calorimetry, extensive particle...
The future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC), with its large range of center-of-mass energies in combination with high luminosity and polarization of both the electron and the proton/light-ion beams will transform our understanding of Quantum Chromo-Dynamics (QCD).
Its new state-of-the-art detector, ePIC, will open a unique opportunity for high precision measurements of both cross sections and...
The future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) will enable a broad scientific program spanning topics in nuclear physics not yet fully understood at past or present facilities. Among them is understanding the origin of mass and spin of the proton and being able to study the 3D structure of the proton (partonic imaging). Additionally, there are goals in electron + heavy-ion collisions aimed at...
The dual-radiator RICH (dRICH) detector of the ePIC experiment at the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) will employ Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs) for single-photon Cherenkov light detection. Covering an area of $\sim$ 3 m$^{2}$ with 3$\times$3 mm$^{2}$ pixels and more than 300k readout channels, this will be the first collider experiment to utilize SiPMs at such a scale for single-photon...
