Performance of cryogenic charge readout electronics with the ARGONTUBE LAr TPC
A. Ereditato, D. Goeldi, S. Janos +7
ARGONTUBE is a liquid argon time projection chamber (TPC) with an electron drift length of up to 5 m equipped with cryogenic charge-sensitive preamplifiers. In this work, we presen…
Breakdown voltage of metal-oxide resistors in liquid argon
L. F. Bagby, S. Gollapinni, C. C. James +10
We characterized a sample of metal-oxide resistors and measured their breakdown voltage in liquid argon by applying high voltage (HV) pulses over a 3 second period. This test mimic…
Testing of High Voltage Surge Protection Devices for Use in Liquid Argon TPC Detectors
J. Asaadi, J. M. Conrad, S. Gollapinni +6
In this paper we demonstrate the capability of high voltage varistors and gas discharge tube arrestors for use as surge protection devices in liquid argon time projection chamber d…
A method to suppress dielectric breakdowns in liquid argon ionization detectors for cathode to ground distances of several millimeters
M. Auger, A. Ereditato, D. Goeldi +7
We present a method to reach electric field intensity as high as 400 kV/cm in liquid argon for cathode-ground distances of several millimeters. This can be achieved by suppressing…
A steerable UV laser system for the calibration of liquid argon time projection chambers
A. Ereditato, I. Kreslo, M. Lüthi +5
A number of liquid argon time projection chambers (LAr TPC's) are being build or are proposed for neutrino experiments on long- and short baseline beams. For these detectors a dist…
Opera Highlights
Thomas Strauss
The OPERA experiment is a long baseline neutrino oscillation experiment aimed at observing the neutrino oscillation in the CERN neutrino to Gran Sasso beamli…
High Voltage in Noble Liquids for High Energy Physics
Edited by B. Rebel, C. Hall with contributions from E. Bernard, C. H. Faham +12
A workshop was held at Fermilab November 8-9, 2013 to discuss the challenges of using high voltage in noble liquids. The participants spanned the fields of neutrino, dark matter, a…
