Lorentz Angle Measurement for CO 2 / Isobutane Gas Mixtures
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have developed a Lorentz angle measurement system for cool gas mixtures in the course of our R&D for a proposed JLC central drift chamber (JLC-CDC). The measurement system is characterized by the use of two laser beams to produce primary electrons and flash ADCs to read their signals simultaneously. With this new system, we have measured Lorentz angles for CO 2 /isobutane gas mixtures with different proportions (95:5, 90:10, and 85:15), varying drift field from 0.6 to 2.0 kV/cm and magnetic field up to 1.5 T. The results of the measurement are in good agreement with GARFIELD/MAGBOLTZ simulations.

SF6 quenched gas mixtures for streamer mode operation of RPCs at very low voltages
In the present paper we describe a search for gases that allow to reduce the energy of the electrical discharge produced in Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs) operated in streamer mode, by reducing both the operating voltage and the released charge. This can be achieved, with current gas mixtures of argon, tetrafluoroethane (TFE) and isobutane, by reducing the total amount of quenching components ...
متن کاملStudies of Helium Gas Mixtures in Drift Chambers*
Some properties of gas mixtures, composed predominately of helium and lesser amounts of CO2 and isobutane, were measured in a prototype drift chamber. The studies are motivated by the desire to reduce the multiple scattering inside the drift chamber at future high-luminosity, low-energy facilities such as 4 factories, T/charm factories, and B factories. The low atomic number of helium greatly r...
متن کاملRadiation Aging Studies of Co2 Hydrocarbon Mixtures for the Sld Drift Chamber*
The SLD drift chamber requires a ‘slow’ drifting gas and low diffusion to allow wave form digitization. CO2 provides this but requires an admixture of a quencher to provide more gain. _ A test chamber with an 8 sense wire cell, such as will appear in the final chamber, was exposed to an X-ray tube while containing a variety of binary admixtures of COz: 8% isobutane, 8% ethane, and 2% isopropano...
متن کاملGas Analysis System Based on Artificial Neural Networks
The paper presents the design and implementation of an automated system for the analysis of gas mixtures. Using low-cost, non-selective gas sensors in combination with signal processing algorithm based on artificial neural networks, the prototype system is able to correctly classify three combustible gases (methane, isobutane, and hydrogen) and to indicate when the total gas concentration in th...
متن کاملBeam deflection measurement of bound-electronic and rotational nonlinear refraction in molecular gases.
A polarization-resolved beam deflection technique is used to separate the bound-electronic and molecular rotational components of nonlinear refractive transients of molecular gases. Coherent rotational revivals from N(2), O(2), and two isotopologues of carbon disulfide (CS(2)), are identified in gaseous mixtures. Dephasing rates, rotational and centrifugal distortion constants of each species a...
