✦ Synopsis

The ALICE experiment at CERN will have an inner tracker made of six barrels of semiconductor detectors. The two intermediate layers of the system will employ Silicon Drift Detectors (SDD) technology. The front-end electronics of the SDDs, which required the development of two full-custom integrated circuits, is reviewed in this paper. The design of the front-end hybrid is discussed and results obtained with full-size prototypes are presented.

The photon spectrometer (PHOS) in the ALICE experiment at LHC is dedicated to measuring photons, p 0 's and Z's in a broad p T range from about 100 MeV/c to 100 GeV/c, providing the best possible energy and position resolution in order to narrow the p 0 and Z mass peaks and thus to increase the sign

The ALICE Silicon Pixel Detector (SPD) forms the two innermost layers of the ALICE Inner Tracking System (ITS). It consists of two barrel layers of hybrid silicon pixel detectors at radii of 39 and 76 mm. The physics targets of the ALICE experiment require that the material budget of the SPD is kept
