Beam test of a small MICROMEGAS DHCAL prototype
A sampling hadronic calorimeter with gaps instrumented with thin MICROMEGAS chambers of small pad size and single bit readout is a candidate for an experiment at a future linear collider. Several MICROMEGAS chambers with 1 cm2 anode pads were fabricated using the Bulk technology. Some prototypes equipped with analog readout GASSIPLEX chips were developed for characterisation at the CERN/PS faci...
متن کاملMicromegas for imaging calorimetry
Gaseous detectors have been used in sampling calorimeters for several years and still remain an attractive option for future collider experiments. The use of Micromegas chambers as active elements of a hadronic calorimeter was proposed a few years ago and stirred up exciting developments of this technology. Basic building blocks of large size chambers acting as signal generating and processing ...
متن کاملmicrOMEGAs: Version 1.3
We present the latest version of micrOMEGAs, a code that calculates the relic density of the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP) in the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM). All tree-level processes for the annihilation of the LSP are included as well as all possible coannihilation processes with neutralinos, charginos, sleptons, squarks and gluinos. The crosssections extracted from ...
متن کاملMICROMEGAS: results and prospects
A lot of effort has been invested in the development of the Microstrip Gas Chamber (MSGC) [2] in order to be used as tracker for the LHC project. This technique allows good localization accuracy and double track resolution. However, it is necessary to operate it with a relatively low gas gain because of the presence of the insulator near the amplification region and because of the fragility of ...
متن کاملTREX-DM: a low-background Micromegas-based TPC for low-mass WIMP detection
If Dark Matter is made of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) with masses below [Formula: see text] GeV, the corresponding nuclear recoils in mainstream WIMP experiments are of energies too close, or below, the experimental threshold. Gas Time Projection Chambers (TPCs) can be operated with a variety of target elements, offer good tracking capabilities and, on account of the amplificat...
