28 Aug 2015 | | Abstract: | The detection of photons produced during the avalanche development in gas
chambers has been well studied in the past. The great progresses achieved in
last years in the performance of micro-pattern gas detectors on one side and of
photo-sensors on the other provide the possibility of making high granularity
and very sensitive particle trackers. In this paper, the results obtained with
a triple-GEM structure read-out by a CMOS based sensor are described. The use
of an He/CF$_4$ (60/40) gas mixture and a suitable study of the electric fields
made possible to optimise GEM light yield. About 100 photons per primary
electron were detected by the sensor resulting in a very good capability of
tracking muons from cosmic rays. | | Source: | arXiv, 1508.7143 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
