چکیده
A scintillation proportional counter with wavelength shifting fiber readout filled with Xe or Kr under a pressure of up to 20 atm is proposed for the low–background experiments on search for dark matter of the Universe and 2K–decay of Kr.

Development of High Pressure Xe Scintillation Proportional Counter for Experiments in ”low-background” Physics
Characteristics of a scintillation proportional counter with WLS fiber optics readout is described. The possibility of detection of the proportional scintillation signal produced by the single electron of primary ionization is shown. The counter can be applied for the experiments in ”low–background” physics which require a low energy threshold. E-mail : akimov [email protected]
متن کاملHigh-pressure Helium-3 Scintillation Position-sensitive Detector of Thermal Neutrons
The objective of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility of constructing a compact neutron detector that is sensitive to thermal and epithermal neutrons and has high rejection efficiency relative to gamma-ray background. A two-channel high-pressure He scintillation detector is considered for the detection of neutrons in coincidence mode. The detector consists of two large avalanche photodi...
متن کاملشبیه سازی یک آشکارساز تناسبی میکرو نواری برای آشکارسازی گاز رادن و دختران با کد مونت کارلو (MCNPX)
Many detection methods have been applied to detect radon gas. Due to the low noise and high resolution of gas detectors compared to semiconductor detectors or scintillation detectors, using them to detect alpha radiation is very considerable. Microstrip proportional detector is also included in this group and it has not been used for the detection of radon. In this article, response of the micr...
متن کاملThe gas proportional scintillation counter / microstrip gas chamber hybrid detector
The gas proportional scintillation counter/microstrip gas chamber (GPSC/MSGC) hybrid detector for X-ray spectrometry is described. The detector uses a CsI-coated microstrip plate placed in direct contact with the gas-filling as the photosensor readout for the GPSC scintillation substituting for the photomultiplier tube (PMT). Usable photosensor maximum gain is limited by optical positive feedba...
متن کاملHigh-pressure operation of a xenon-GPSC/MSGC hybrid detector for hard X-ray spectrometry
The performance of a high-pressure xenon gas proportional scintillation counter/microstrip gas chamber (GPSC/MSGC) hybrid detector has been investigated for filling pressures from 1 up to 10 bar, for 22-, 30and 60-keV photons. GPSC/MSGC hybrid detectors are based on a xenon-GPSC instrumented with a CsI-coated microstrip plate photosensor placed directly within the xenon envelope, as a substitut...
