Gaseous time projection chambers for rare event detection: Results from the T-REX project. I. Double beta decay
I. G. Irastorza, F. Aznar, J. Castel +13
As part of the T-REX project, a number of R&D and prototyping activities have been carried out during the last years to explore the applicability of gaseous Micromegas-read TPCs in…
Gaseous time projection chambers for rare event detection: Results from the T-REX project. II. Dark matter
I. G. Irastorza, F. Aznar, J. Castel +13
As part of the T-REX project, a number of R&D and prototyping activities have been carried out during the last years to explore the applicability of Micromegas-read gaseous TPCs in…
A Micromegas-based low-background x-ray detector coupled to a slumped-glass telescope for axion research
F. Aznar, J. Castel, F. E. Christensen +18
We report on the design, construction and operation of a low background x-ray detection line composed of a shielded Micromegas (micromesh gaseous structure) detector of the microbu…
Modelling the behaviour of microbulk Micromegas in Xenon/trimethylamine gas
E. Ruiz-Choliz, D. Gonzalez-Diaz, A. Diago +9
We model the response of a state of the art micro-hole single-stage charge amplication device (`microbulk' Micromegas) in a gaseous atmosphere consisting of Xenon/trimethylamine at…
Low Background Micromegas in CAST
J. G. Garza, S. Aune, D. Calvet +22
Solar axions could be converted into x-rays inside the strong magnetic field of an axion helioscope, triggering the detection of this elusive particle. Low background x-ray detecto…
