Timing properties of microstrip gas chambers read out by the PreMux128 chip

چکیده
For the application of MSGCs at CMS it is of special importance to optimize the time resolution of these detectors which is determined by the signal developement in the detector and its processing by the front-end electronics. In this paper we study the timing properties of MSGCs operated in combination with the PreMux128 front-end chip, performing double correlated sampling. The results are compared to calculations from a simulation program. Using this program the method of the weighted sum — an alternative sampling scheme to double correlated sampling — is investigated and optimized.

Use of Ultra Thin Semiconductive Layers as Passivation in Microstrip Gas Chambers
We have investigated the properties of thin copper and germanium layers in view of their use in microstrip gas chambers. It was found that ultra thin germanium layers with thicknesses of about 100 A provide surface resistivities in the order of 10 11 {10 14 /2. Such layers evaporated onto the micro structure of microstrip gas chambers manufactured on plastic or glass supports lead to a gain sta...
متن کاملThe electronic readout of the CMS tracking system
A description is given of the electronic readout system proposed by the CMS experiment for the microstrip tracker. It is an analogue system based on a front end chip development by RD20 and analogue optical links being developed by RD23. Both gas and silicon microstrips are read out by the same system with minor modifications to the front end chips to accommodate the different detector characte...

During the beam test of a tracker prototype for the Compact Muon Solenoid detector proposed for the LHC, the time response of the Microstrip Gas Chambers was studied using diierent gases and chamber gaps. The subsequent eeciency to identify the bunch crossings at LHC is discussed for several algorithms used in the oo-line signal processing of the data.

The development of gaseous detectors has been exciting again since the appearance of a MicroStrip Gas Chamber(MSGC) in 1988, which is made using a microelectronics technology. These days lots of variations of the advanced gaseous detectors are being intensively studied in the world. We have developed the two-dimensional MSGC having a 10 cm square detection area and the ultra fast readout system...

A proper antenna to couple to a microstrip Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detector (MKID) is designed and simulated. A twin-slot microstrip-fed inline antenna is designed for frequency band of 600-720~GHz integrated with an elliptical lens and coupled to the MKID. A systematic design procedure for design of such antenna with microstrip inline feeding is presented. Whole structure of lens and twin...
