The NEXT-100 experiment for neutrinoless double beta decay searches (Conceptual Design Report)
NEXT Collaboration, V. Álvarez, M. Ball +80
We propose an EASY (Electroluminescent ApparatuS of high Yield) and SOFT (Separated Optimized FuncTion) time-projection chamber for the NEXT experiment, that will search for neutri…
CsI-THGEM gaseous photomultipliers for RICH and noble-liquid detectors
A. Breskin, V. Peskov, M. Cortesi +9
The properties of UV-photon imaging detectors consisting of CsI-coated THGEM electron multipliers are summarized. New results related to detection of Cherenkov light (RICH) and sci…
THGEM operation in Ne and Ne/CH4
M. Cortesi, V. Peskov, G. Bartesaghi +8
The operation of Thick Gaseous Electron Multipliers (THGEM) in Ne and Ne/CH4 mixtures, features high multiplication factors at relatively low operation potentials, in both single-…
High-gain DC-mode operated Gaseous Photomultipliers for the visible spectral range
A. Lyashenko, A. Breskin, R. Chechik +3
We shortly describe recent progress in photon detectors combining bi-alkali photocathodes and cascaded patterned gas-avalanche electron multipliers. It permitted the development an…
A concise review on THGEM detectors
A. Breskin, R. Alon, M. Cortesi +5
We briefly review the concept and properties of the Thick GEM (THGEM); it is a robust, high-gain gaseous electron multiplier, manufactured economically by standard printed-circuit…
Operation of a Thick Gas Electron Multiplier (THGEM) in Ar, Xe and Ar-Xe
R. Alon, J. Miyamoto, M. Cortesi +8
We present the results of our recent studies of a Thick Gaseous Electron Multiplier (THGEM)-based detector, operated in Ar, Xe and Ar:Xe (95:5) at various gas pressures. Avalanche-…
