Totem and CMS have developed sensors for timing measurements in the forward region.
Two different sensor technologies are actually employed, sCVD diamond and UFSD (Ultra Fast Silicon Detectors).
In both cases we have signals with edge time in the range 0.5-1 ns. In the joint CT-PPS detector, used in standard LHC run, the signals are readout by means of a fast discriminator (NINO) coupled to...
