A benign, low Z electron capture agent for negative ion TPCs
C. J. Martoff, M. P. Dion, M. Hosack +2
We have identified nitromethane (CHNO) as an effective electron capture agent for negative ion TPCs (NITPCs). We present drift velocity and longitudinal diffusion measureme…

X-ray polarimetry with an active-matrix pixel proportional counter
J. K. Black, P. Deines-Jones, S. E. Ready +1
We report the first results from an X-ray polarimeter with a micropattern gas proportional counter using an amorphous silicon active matrix readout. With 100% polarized X-rays at 4…
