Interfacing Geant4, Garfield++ and Degrad for the Simulation of Gaseous Detectors

Dorothea Pfeiffer, Lennert De Keukeleere, Carlos Azevedo +10

For several years, attempts have been made to interface Geant4 and other software packages with the aim of simulating the complete response of a gaseous particle detector. In such…

Microscopic simulation of xenon-based optical TPCs in the presence of molecular additives

C. D. R. Azevedo, D. Gonzalez-Diaz, S. F. Biagi +67

We introduce a simulation framework for the transport of high and low energy electrons in xenon-based gaseous optical time projection chambers (OTPCs). The simulation relies on ele…

Pressure effect in the X-ray intrinsic position resolution in noble gases and mixtures

C. D. R. Azevedo, P. M. Correia, D. Gonzalez-Diaz +4

A study of the gas pressure effect in the position resolution of an interacting X- or gamma-ray photon in a gas medium is performed. The intrinsic position resolution for pure nobl…

Simulation of VUV electroluminescence in micropattern gaseous detectors: the case of GEM and MHSP

C. A. B. Oliveira, P. M. M. Correia, H. Schindler +6

Electroluminescence produced during avalanche development in gaseous avalanche detectors is an useful information for triggering, calorimetry and tracking in gaseous detectors. Nob…

A simulation toolkit for electroluminescence assessment in rare event experiments

C. A. B. Oliveira, H. Schindler, R. Veenhof +5

A good understanding of electroluminescence is a prerequisite when optimising double-phase noble gas detectors for Dark Matter searches and high-pressure xenon TPCs for neutrinoles…

Drift velocity and gain in argon- and xenon-based mixtures

A. Andronic, S. Biagi, P. Braun-Munzinger +2

We present measurements of drift velocities and gains in gas mixtures based on Ar and Xe, with CO2, CH4, and N2 as quenchers, and compare them with calculations. In particular, we…
