THGEM gain calculations using Garfield++: Solving discrepancies between the simulation and experimental data
C. D. R. Azevedo, P. M. Correia, L. F. N. D. Carramate +2
Discrepancies between the measured and simulated gain in Thick Micropatterned gaseous detectors (MPGD), namely THGEM, have been observed by several groups. In order to simulate the…
