A Comprehensive Simulation Study of a Liquid-Xe Detector for Contraband Detection
I. Israelashvili, M. Cortesi, D. Vartsky +4
Recently, a new detector concept, for combined imaging and spectroscopy of fast-neutrons and gamma was presented. It encompasses a liquid-xenon (LXe) converter-scintillator coupled…
THGEM-based detectors for sampling elements in DHCAL: laboratory and beam evaluation
L. Arazi, A. Breskin, R. Chechik +17
We report on the results of an extensive R&D program aimed at the evaluation of Thick-Gas Electron Multipliers (THGEM) as potential active elements for Digital Hadron Calorimetry (…
Further evaluation of a THGEM UV-photon detector for RICH - comparison with MWPC
V. Peskov, M. Cortesi, R. Chechik +1
The operation of single-, double- and triple-THGEM UV-detectors with reflective CsI photocathodes (CsI-THGEM) in Ne/CH4 and Ne/CF4 mixtures was investigated in view of their potent…
Towards THGEM UV-photon detectors for RICH: on single-photon detection efficiency in Ne/CH4 and Ne/CF4
C. D. R. Azevedo, M. Cortesi, A. V. Lyashenko +7
The article deals with the detection efficiency of UV-photon detectors consisting of Thick Gas Electron Multipliers (THGEM) coated with CsI photocathode, operated in atmospheric Ne…
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-…
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…
