Abstract
The High Luminosity upgrade of Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) will increase the LHC Luminosity and with it the density of particles on the detector by an order of magnitude. For protecting the inner silicon detectors of the ATLAS and other experiments and for monitoring the delivered luminosity, a radiation hard beam monitor is being developed. We are developing a set of detectors based on poly-crystalline Chemical Vapor Deposition (pCVD) diamonds and a new dedicated rad-hard front-end ASIC. Due to the large range of particle flux through the detector, flexibility is very important. To satisfy the requirements imposed by the HL-LHC, our solution is based on segmenting diamond sensors into pixel devices of varying size and reading them out with new multichannel readout ASICs divided into two independent parts - each of them serving one of the tasks of the system. In this talk we describe the proposed system design including detectors, electronics, mechanics and services and present preliminary results from the first detectors fabricated using our prototype ASIC with data from beam tests at CERN.
