Triple GEM performance in magnetic field

High Magnetic Field Performance of a GEM-TPC

A large volume time projection chamber (TPC) has been proposed as main tracking device for a detector at a future linear ee collider. Gas electron multipliers (GEMs) are studied as potential replacement of the conventional wire based gas amplification system of TPCs. This talk presents recent results from R&D activities with a small GEM-TPC prototype. The spatial resolution was measured for dif...

Development and performance of large scale triple GEM for CMS

TPC Performance in Magnetic Fields with GEM and Pad Readout

A novel charged particle tracking device, a high precision time projection chamber with gas electron multiplier and pad readout, is a leading candidate as the central tracker for an experiment at the International Linear Collider. To characterize the performance of such a system, a small TPC has been operated within a magnetic field, measuring cosmic-ray and laser tracks. Good tracking resoluti...

Designated magnetic field design for magnetic drug guidance in BNCT

In this paper, a local magnetic field was designed and simulated using a Helmholtz coil along with a ferromagnetic core with an appropriate geometric Structure to concentrate a magnetic flux. This field can be used for magnetic guiding of Boron-borne drugs in BNCT.

Test and characterization of a new Triple-GEM detector

In my thesis project, I provide a description of the entire process of materials preparation, assembly, testing, and characterization of several triple-GEM (Gas-Electron Multiplier) prototype detectors. GEM detectors represent one of the latest developments in a new style of gaseous particle detectors. They have become well-known and widely used. Improvements in foil production are important fo...
