R&D results on a CsI-TTGEM based photodetector
A. Breskin, V. Peskov, A. Di Mauro +6
The very high momentum particle identification detector proposed for the ALICE upgrade is a focusing RICH using a C4F10 gaseous radiator. For the detection of Cherenkov photons, on…
Position Sensitive Gaseous Photomultipliers
P. Martinengo, E. Nappi, V. Peskov
Advances in the technologies associated with position sensitive gaseous detectors especially featuring CsI as reflective photoconverters will be reviewed. These photodetectors repr…
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…
Advances in the Development of Micropattern Gaseous Detectors with Resistive Electrodes
P. Fonte, P. Martinengo, E. Nappi +4
We describe the most recent efforts made by various groups in implementing resistive electrodes in micropattern gaseous detectors with the aim to combine in the same design the bes…
Performance of wire-type Rn detectors operated with gas gain in ambient air in view of its possible application to early earthquake predictions
G. Charpak, P. Benaben, P. Breuil +3
We describe a detector of alpha particles based on wire type counters (single-wire and multiwire) operating in ambient air at high gas gains (100-1000). The main advantages of thes…
