Performance of a Chamber for Studying the Liquid Xenon Response to Nuclear Recoils
V. Chepel, F. Neves, V. Solovov +8
The design and performance of a 1.2 liter liquid xenon chamber equipped with 7 two-inch photomultiplier tubes, with the purpose of studying the scintillation response of xenon to g…
Measurement of the refractive index and attenuation length of liquid xenon for its scintillation light
V. N. Solovov, V. Chepel, M. I. Lopes +3
The attenuation length and refractive index of liquid xenon for intrinsic scintillation light (178nm) have been measured in a single experiment. The value obtained for attenuation…
Resistive plate chambers for time-of-flight measurements
A. Blanco, P. Fonte, L. Lopes +3
The applications of Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs) have recently been extended by the development of counters with time resolution below 100 ps sigma for minimum ionising particle…
Development of liquid xenon detectors for medical imaging
V. Chepel, M. I. Lopes, V. Solovov +2
In the present paper, we report on our developments of liquid xenon detectors for medical imaging, positron emission tomography and single photon imaging, in particular. The result…
Low Temperature Performance of a Large Area Avalanche Photodiode
V. N. Solovov, F. Neves, V. Chepel +3
A Large Area Avalanche Photodiode (LAAPD) was studied, aiming to access its performance as light detector at low temperatures, down to -80 C. The excess noise factor, F, was measur…
Detection of Scintillation Light of Liquid Xenon with a LAAPD
V. N. Solovov, A. Hitachi, V. Chepel +3
First observation of liquid xenon scintillation due to alpha-particles and gamma-rays with a large area avalanche photodiode immersed in the liquid is reported. An energy resolutio…
