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…

Performances of Anode-resistive Micromegas for HL-LHC

J. Manjarres, T. Alexopoulos, D. Attie +14

Micromegas technology is a promising candidate to replace Atlas forward muon chambers -tracking and trigger- for future HL-LHC upgrade of the experiment. The increase on background…

Performances and ageing study of resistive-anodes Micromegas detectors for HL-LHC environment

F. Jeanneau, T. Alexopoulos, D. Attié +15

With the tenfold luminosity increase envisaged at the HL-LHC, the background (photons, neutrons, ...) and the event pile-up probability are expected to increase in proportion in th…

Aging studies of Micromegas prototypes for the HL-LHC

J. Galan, D. Attie, J. Derre +9

The micromegas technology is a promising candidate to replace the forward muon chambers for the luminosity upgrade of ATLAS. The LHC accelerator luminosity will be five times the n…

Ultra low energy results and their impact to dark matter and low energy neutrino physics

E. Bougamont, P. Colas, J. Derre +9

We present ultra low energy results taken with the novel Spherical Proportional Counter. The energy threshold has been pushed down to about 25 eV and single electrons are clearly c…

A novel large-volume Spherical Detector with Proportional Amplification read-out

I. Giomataris, I. Irastorza, I. Savvidis +11

A new type of radiation detector based on a spherical geometry is presented. The detector consists of a large spherical gas volume with a central electrode forming a radial electri…
