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…
The Micromegas detector of the CAST experiment
P. Abbon, S. Andriamonje, S. Aune +17
A low background Micromegas detector has been operating in the CAST experiment at CERN for the search of solar axions during the first phase of the experiment (2002-2004). The dete…
Neutron imaging with a Micromegas detector
F. Jeanneau, R. Junca, J. Pancin +10
The micropattern gaseous detector Micromegas has been developed for several years in Saclay and presents good performance for neutron detection. A prototype for neutron imaging has…
Micromegas in a Bulk
I. Giomataris, R. De Oliveira, S. Andriamonje +6
In this paper we present a novel way to manufacture the bulk Micromegas detector. A simple process based on the PCB (Printed Circuit Board) technology is employed to produce the en…
