I also got to work with antimatter! Our group tested our first prototype detector in front of a positron beam at Jefferson Lab. We're testing our third prototype now in the same spot! ⚛️ 🧪

Trying to find a good 3D model to show the scale of the ePIC detector at the Electron-Ion Collider. I think this one works well, doesn't it? ⚛️🧪

As far as we can tell, our group is the first to deploy SiPM-on-tile technology inside a particle collider! We're testing one of our prototypes in RHIC at @brookhavenlab.bsky.social ⚛️🧪

Installing our prototype detector at Jefferson Lab! Now we just have to wait for the positron beam to turn on... ⚛️🧪
