A Piggyback resistive Micromegas
D. Attie, A. Chaus, P. Colas +8
A novel read-out architecture has been developed for the Micromegas detector. The anode element is made of a resistive layer on a ceramic substrate. The detector part is entirely s…
HORSES3D: a high-order discontinuous Galerkin solver for flow simulations and multi-physics applications
E. Ferrer, G. Rubio, G. Ntoukas +10
We present the latest developments of our High-Order Spectral Element Solver (HORSES3D), an open source high-order discontinuous Galerkin framework, capable of solving a variety of…
A novel large-volume Spherical Detector with Proportional Amplification read-out
I. Giomataris, I. Irastorza, I. Savvidis +11
A new type of radiation detector based on a spherical geometry is presented. The detector consists of a large spherical gas volume with a central electrode forming a radial electri…
MIMAC : A micro-tpc matrix for directional detection of dark matter
D. Santos, J. Billard, G. Bosson +12
Directional detection of non-baryonic Dark Matter is a promising search strategy for discriminating WIMP events from background. However, this strategy requires both a precise meas…
Dark matter directional detection with MIMAC
C. Grignon, J. Billard, G. Bosson +8
MiMac is a project of micro-TPC matrix of gaseous (He3, CF4) chambers for direct detection of non-baryonic dark matter. Measurement of both track and ionization energy will allow t…
MIMAC: A micro-tpc matrix for dark matter directional detection
D. Santos, J. Billard, G. Bosson +14
The dark matter directional detection opens a new field in cosmology bringing the possibility to build a map of nuclear recoils that would be able to explore the galactic dark matt…
The case for a directional dark matter detector and the status of current experimental efforts
S. Ahlen, N. Afshordi, J. B. R. Battat +109
We present the case for a dark matter detector with directional sensitivity. This document was developed at the 2009 CYGNUS workshop on directional dark matter detection, and conta…

A prototype of a directional detector for non-baryonic dark matter search: MIMAC (Micro-TPC Matrix of Chambers)
C. Grignon, G. Bernard, J. Billard +11
We have developed a micro-tpc using a pixelized bulk micromegas coupled to dedicated acquisition electronics as a read-out allowing to reconstruct the three dimensional track of a…
Directional detection of non-baryonic dark matter with MIMAC
C. Grignon, J. Billard, G. Bosson +8
Directional detection of non-baryonic Dark Matter is a promising search strategy for discriminating genuine WIMP events from background ones. However, carrying out such a strategy…
