A: Silicon sensors with high timing resolution can help particle identification in the International Linear Collider (ILC). We are studying Low Gain Avalanche Detectors (LGADs) as a sensor with high timing resolution. As a step to develop LGADs we are now characterizing Avalanche Photo Diodes (APDs), which have similar multiplication structure as LGADs. Particles from radioisotopes are used for studies in this paper.
