Development of a new generation of micropattern gaseous detectors for high energy physics, astrophysics and environmental applications

arXiv:1305.0719 · doi:10.1016/j.nima.2013.08.016

Abstract

We have developed a cost effective technology for manufacturing various layouts of micropattern gaseous detectors for a wide range of applications. Such devices feature resistive electrodes interfaced to a network of thin readout strips/electrodes. The following three examples of such innovative designs and their applications will be presented: a prototype of a novel double-phase LAr detector with a CsI photocathode immersed inside the LAr, a CsI-RICH detector prototype for ALICE upgrade and GEM-like sensors for environmental safety/security applications.

Presented at the Vienna Confernce on Instrumenation, February 2013
