Description for Studies with a Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber
Paperback. Series: BestMasters. Num Pages: 163 pages, 59 black & white illustrations, 1 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: PDDM; PHN; TJFC. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 210 x 148 x 10. Weight in Grams: 226.
Michael Schenk evaluates new technologies and methods, such as cryogenic read-out electronics and a UV laser system, developed to optimise the performance of large liquid argon time projection chambers (LArTPC). Amongst others, the author studies the uniformity of the electric field produced by a Greinacher high-voltage generator operating at cryogenic temperatures, measures the linear energy transfer (LET) of muons and the longitudinal diffusion coefficient of electrons in liquid argon. The results are obtained by analysing events induced by cosmic-ray muons and UV laser beams. The studies are carried out with ARGONTUBE, a prototype LArTPC in operation at the University of ...
