Effects of ion drift on time-over-threshold charge estimates using first-order integrators in thermal neutron MWPC
Patrick Van Esch, Thomas Durand
Time-over-threshold measurements of the output of a first order integration amplifier can be used as a cheap way to estimate the charge deposited on a wire in an MWPC. Even if the…
An Electrostatic Lens to Reduce Parallax in Banana Gas Detectors
Patrick Van Esch, Jean-Francois Clergeau, Kadda Medjoubi
Cylindrical "banana" gas detectors are often used in fixed-target experiments, because they are free of parallax effects in the equatorial plane. However, there is a growing demand…
An Optimal Lookup Table Construction for Charge Division with respect to Efficiency Flatness
Patrick Van Esch, Frederic Millier
Static lookup tables as often used in the position calculation electronics in position sensitive detectors suffer from the well known problem that the propagation of digitization e…
Off line Parallax Correction for Neutral Particle Gas Detectors
Patrick Van Esch
In a neutral particle gas detector, the parallax error resulting from the perpendicular projection on the detection plane or wire of the radial particle trajectories emanating from…
Design guide for electronics for resistive charge division in thermal neutron detection
Patrick Van Esch, Thomas Gahl, Bruno Guerard
An amplifier has been designed for optimal use of position sensitive thermal neutron detectors using the principle of resistive charge division. The important points in this optimi…
