Charge-Coupled Devices (CCDs) sensors have been at the forefront of high precision and resolution imaging ever since their development. Scientific CCDs and the Skipper-CCD pushed the boundaries for sensing very weak ionizing particles, as they allow to detect without error the charge signal (even a...
