Micromegas detector developments for Dark Matter directional detection with MIMAC
arXiv:1105.2056 · doi:10.1088/1748-0221/6/07/P07002
Abstract
The aim of the MIMAC project is to detect non-baryonic Dark Matter with a directional TPC using a high precision Micromegas readout plane. We will describe in detail the recent developments done with bulk Micromegas detectors as well as the characterisation measurements performed in an Argon(95%)-Isobutane(5%) mixture. Track measurements with alpha particles will be shown.
