Advances in photocathode development for PICOSEC Micromegas precise-timing detectors
M. Lisowska, F. Guerra, A. Gurpinar +46
The PICOSEC Micromegas detector is a~precise-timing gaseous detector that combines a Cherenkov radiator, a~semi-transparent photocathode and a Micromegas amplification stage, targe…
Optical readout of MPGDs with solid wavelength shifters
F. M. Brunbauer, A. Cools, M. Cortesi +20
Optical readout of MicroPattern Gaseous Detectors (MPGDs) makes use of the high granularity of imaging sensors to achieve good spatial resolution for radiation imaging and particle…
Spatial resolution improvement of PICOSEC Micromegas precise timing detectors
F. M. Brunbauer, R. Aleksan, Y. Angelis +47
The combination of a Cherenkov radiator with a semi-transparent photocathode and a Micromegas based amplification stage allows PICOSEC Micromegas detectors to achieve a time resolu…
Measurements of enriched 155 Gd and 157Gd converters with the NMX detector on the nTOF EAR2 beam line at CERN
D. Pfeiffer, F. M. Brunbauer, I. R. Fehse +15
The detectors for the NMX instrument at the European Spallation Source (ESS) in Lund use natural Gd as the neutron converter. In 2024, beam time was obtained at the neutron time-of…
