Characterization of resistive Micromegas detectors for the upgrade of the T2K Near Detector Time Projection Chambers

D. Attié, M. Batkiewicz-Kwasniak, P. Billoir +58

The second phase of the T2K experiment is expected to start data taking in autumn 2022. An upgrade of the Near Detector (ND280) is under development and includes the construction o…

Performance measurement of HARPO: a Time Projection Chamber as a gamma-ray telescope and polarimeter

P. Gros, S. Amano, D. Attié +27

We analyse the performance of a gas time projection chamber (TPC) as a high-performance gamma-ray telescope and polarimeter in the ee pair creation regime. We use data coll…

First measurement of polarisation asymmetry of a gamma-ray beam between 1.74 to 74 MeV with the HARPO TPC

Philippe Gros, Sho Amano, David Attié +23

Current -ray telescopes suffer from a gap in sensitivity in the energy range between 100keV and 100MeV, and no polarisation measurement has ever been done on cosmic sources abov…

Measurement of 1.7 to 74 MeV polarised gamma rays with the HARPO TPC

Y. Geerebaert, Ph. Gros, S. Amano +23

Current γ-ray telescopes based on photon conversions to electron-positron pairs, such as Fermi, use tungsten converters. They suffer of limited angular resolution at low energies,…

HARPO: beam characterization of a TPC for gamma-ray polarimetry and high angular-resolution astronomy in the MeV-GeV range

Shaobo Wang, Denis Bernard, Philippe Bruel +23

A time projection chamber (TPC) can be used to measure the polarization of gamma rays with excellent angular precision and sensitivity in the MeV-GeV energy range through the conve…

Piggyback resistive Micromegas

D. Attié, A. Chaus, D. Durand +10

Piggyback Micromegas consists in a novel readout architecture where the anode element is made of a resistive layer on a ceramic substrate. The resistive layer is deposited on the t…

Micromegas detector developments for Dark Matter directional detection with MIMAC

F. J. Iguaz, D. Attié, D. Calvet +19

The aim of the MIMAC project is to detect non-baryonic Dark Matter with a directional TPC using a high precision Micromegas readout plane. We will describe in detail the recent dev…
