Further developments and tests of microstrip gas counters with resistive electrodes
R. Oliveira, V. Peskov, Pietropaolo +1
We present results from further tests of Microstrip Gas Counters (MSGCs) with resistive electrodes. The maim advantage of this detector is that it is spark-protected: in contrast t…
Progress on large area GEMs (VCI 2010)
Marco Villa, Serge Duarte Pinto, Matteo Alfonsi +7
The Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) manufacturing technique has recently evolved to allow the production of large area GEMs. A novel approach based on single mask photolithography el…
Progress on large area GEMs
Serge Duarte Pinto, Marco Villa, Matteo Alfonsi +6
In 2008, a triple GEM detector prototype with an area of ~2000 cm2 has been constructed, based on foils of 66*66 cm. GEMs of such dimensions had not been made before, and innovatio…
Making spherical GEMs
Serge Duarte Pinto, Marco Villa, Matteo Alfonsi +7
We developed a method to make GEM foils with a spherical geometry. Tests of this procedure and with the resulting spherical GEMs are presented. Together with a spherical drift elec…
