Discharge quenching mechanism and performance of RPWELL with tunable 3D printed resistive plates, charge evacuation in semiconductive glass RPWELL and discharge quenching for Cryogenic-RWELL over a wide range of resistivity
Abhik Jash, Luca Moleri, Andrea Tesi +1
Resistive electrodes are used in gaseous detectors to quench electrical discharges. This helps to protect delicate electrodes and readout electronics and to improve the stability o…
Cryogenic RPWELL: a novel charge-readout element for dual-phase argon TPCs
A. Tesi, S. Leardini, L. Moleri +5
The first operation of a cryogenic Resistive Plate WELL (RPWELL) detector in the saturated vapor of liquid argon is reported. The RPWELL detector was composed of a Thick Gas Electr…
The cryogenic RWELL: a stable charge multiplier for dual-phase liquid-argon detectors
A. Tesi, S. Leardini, L. Moleri +4
The operation of a cryogenic Resistive WELL (RWELL) in liquid argon vapor is reported for the first time. It comprises a Thick Gas Electron Multiplier (THGEM) structure coupled to…
Novel resistive charge-multipliers for dual-phase LAr-TPCs: towards stable operation at higher gains
A. Tesi, L. Moleri, S. Leardini +5
Cryogenic versions of Resistive WELL (RWELL) and Resistive Plate WELL (RPWELL) detectors have been developed, aimed at stable avalanche multiplication of ionization electrons in du…
Towards a large-area RPWELL detector: design optimization and performance
D. Zavazieva, L. Moleri, A. Jash +3
We present a new design and assembly procedure of a large-area gas-avalanche Resistive-Plate WELL (RPWELL) detector. A prototype was tested in $\mathrm{…
The Thick Gas Electron Multiplier and its derivatives: physics, technologies and applications
Shikma Bressler, Luca Moleri, Abhik Jash +2
The Thick Gas Electron Multiplier (THGEM) is a robust high-gain gas-avalanche electron multiplier - a building block of a variety of radiation detectors. It can be manufactured eco…
