The ionization yield in a methane-filled spherical proportional counter
M. M. Arora, L. Balogh, C. Beaufort +40
Spherical proportional counters (SPCs) are gaseous particle detectors sensitive to single ionization electrons in their target media, with large detector volumes and low background…
R2D2 TPC: first Xenon results
R. Bouet, J. Busto, V. Cecchini +16
Radial time projection chambers (TPC), already employed in the search for rare phenomena such as light Dark Matter candidate, could provide a new detection approach for the search…
A sparkless resistive glass correction electrode for the spherical proportional counter
I. Katsioulas, I. Giomataris, P. Knights +4
A new anode support structure for the spherical proportional counter is presented that incorporates a resistive correction electrode made of glass. This electrode improves the elec…
Neutron spectroscopy with the Spherical Proportional Counter
E. Bougamont, A. Dastgheibi, J. Derre +11
A novel large volume spherical proportional counter, recently developed, is used for neutron measurements. Gas mixtures of with and pure are studied fo…
A low background Micromegas detector for the CAST experiment
P. Abbon, S. Andriamonje, S. Aune +21
A low background Micromegas detector has been operating on the CAST experiment at CERN for the search of solar axions during the first phase of the experiment (2002-2004). The dete…
