background: although the depth of the counting chamber is an important factor influencing sperm counting, no research has yet been reported on the measurement and comparison of the depth of the chamber. we measured the exact depths of six kinds of sperm counting chambers and evaluated their accuracy. materials and methods: in this prospective study, the depths of six kinds of sperm counting cha...

The shape of the air flow in the interior is heavily influenced by the air distribution system and the way air enters and exits. By numerically simulating flow by computational fluid dynamics, one can determine the flow pattern and temperature distribution and, with the help of the results, provide an optimal design of the air conditioning system. In this study, a chamber was first constructed ...

With the principle of the time expansion chamber and the additional measurement of the position of the avalanche along the circumference of the anode wire it is possible to reconstruct the spatial distribution of the primary ionization in space. A position resolution for minimum ionizing tracks of a 5 30 urn is expected. First tests and concepts for vertex detectors are presented.
