Description for The Floating Strip Micromegas Detector. Versatile Particle Detectors for High-Rate Applications.
hardcover. Series: Springer Theses. Num Pages: 271 pages, 151 black & white illustrations, 37 colour illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: MMPH; MQW; PDDM; PHP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 16. Weight in Grams: 573.
This book discusses a novel and high-rate-capable micro pattern gaseous detector of the Micromegas (MICRO-MEsh GAS detector) type. It provides a detailed characterization of the performance of Micromegas detectors on the basis of measurements and simulations, along with an in-depth examination of analysis and reconstruction methods. The accurate and efficient detection of minimum ionizing particles in high-rate background environments is demonstrated. The excellent performance determined here for these lightweight detectors will make possible the live medical imaging of a patient during ion-beam treatment.
