WP-75: Detector Development

Development of detectors for the experimental end stations. Detectors include, point, linear (1-dimensional) and area (2-dimensional: AGIPD, DSSC, LPD) systems for electron, particle and photon detection. The current main focus is on 2-dimensional X-ray detectors. The detectors developed will be fully functional and commissioned systems, integrated into the general DAQ (see WP76) system.
