Micromegas-TPC operation at high pressure in xenon-trimethylamine mixtures
S. Cebrián, T. Dafni, E. Ferrer-Ribas +10
In this work we present a systematic study of Micromegas detectors in high pressure gaseous Xenon using trimethylamine (TMA) as quencher gas. Gas gains and energy resolutions for 2…
CAST microbulk micromegas in the Canfranc Underground Laboratory
A. Tomás, S. Aune, T. Dafni +19
During the last taking data campaigns of the CAST experiment, the micromegas detectors have achieved background levels of keVcms betw…
Design and characterization of the SiPM tracking system of NEXT-DEMO, a demonstrator prototype of the NEXT-100 experiment
NEXT Collaboration, V. Álvarez, M. Ball +86
NEXT-100 experiment aims at searching the neutrinoless double-beta decay of the Xe-136 isotope using a TPC filled with a 100 kg of high-pressure gaseous xenon, with 90% isotopic en…
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…
NEXT-100 Technical Design Report (TDR). Executive Summary
NEXT Collaboration, V. Álvarez, F. I. G. M. Borges +84
In this Technical Design Report (TDR) we describe the NEXT-100 detector that will search for neutrinoless double beta decay (bbonu) in Xe-136 at the Laboratorio Subterraneo de Canf…
Characterization of microbulk detectors in argon- and neon-based mixtures
F. J. Iguaz, E. Ferrer-Ribas, A. Giganon +1
A recent Micromegas manufacturing technique, so called Microbulk, has been developed, improving the uniformity and stability of this kind of detectors. Excellent energy resolutions…
