“…Although an unprecedented single-hit timing ∼ 130 ps resolution, able to compete with those of scintillating devices, was achieved by the NA62 collaboration with standard Si-pixel sensors [45,46], this should be considered as a bound performance achievable with conventional planar Si technology. The geometrical layout and technology currently adopted for Si-sensors, in fact, are the limiting factors to obtain better performances for Si-pixel sensors and, most likely, to reach these resolutions for SiMS detectors [47,48].…”

A large-area, solid-state detector with single-hit precision timing measurement will enable several breakthrough experimental advances for the direct measurement of particles in space. Silicon microstrip detectors are the most promising candidate technology to instrument the large areas of the next-generation astroparticle space borne detectors that could meet the limitations on power consumption required by operations in space. We overview the novel experimental opportunities that could be enabled by the introduction of the timing measurement, concurrent with the accurate spatial and charge measurement, in Silicon microstrip tracking detectors, and we discuss the technological solutions and their readiness to enable the operations of large-area Silicon microstrip timing detectors in space.
