A new amplification structure for time projection chambers based on electroluminescence
D. González-DÃaz, M. FontaÃña, D. GarcÃa Castro +6
A simple hole-type secondary scintillation structure (2 mm-hole, 5 mm-pitch, 5 mm-thickness) is introduced and its operation demonstrated in pure xenon in the pressure range 2-10 b…
Towards MPGDs with embedded pixel ASICs
L. Scharenberg, J. Alozy, W. Billereau +27
Combining gaseous detectors with a high-granularity pixelated charge readout enables experimental applications which otherwise could not be achieved. This includes high-resolution…
Performance of the High-Angle Time Projection Chambers in the Upgraded T2K Off-Axis Near Detector
K. Aivazelis, D. Attié, P. Billoir +94
The off-axis magnetic near detector of the T2K experiment has undergone a significant upgrade, including the construction and installation of two new Time Projection Chambers featu…
Embedding the Timepix4 in Micro-Pattern Gaseous Detectors
L. Scharenberg, J. Alozy, W. Billereau +27
The combination of Micro-Pattern Gaseous Detectors (MPGDs) and pixel charge readout enables specific experimental opportunities. Using the Timepix4 for the readout is advantageous…
FAT-GEMs: (Field Assisted) Transparent Gaseous-Electroluminescence Multipliers
S. Leardini, A. Sáa-Hernández, M. Kuźniak +12
The idea of implementing electroluminescence-based amplification through transparent multi-hole structures (FAT-GEMs) has been entertained for some time. Arguably, for such a techn…
Characterisation of Thick Gaseous Electron Multipliers as charge readout operated in pure argon
G. Eurin, A. Delbart, R. De Oliveira +4
The gain measurements of several 1 mm-thick, 1010 cm Thick Gaseous Electron Multipliers (ThGEMs), operated in pure argon at 3.3 bar and room temperature are presented.…
