Characterization of large diameter ultra-thin vacuum windows for soft X-ray applications

K. Desch, E. Ferrer-Ribas, F.J. Iguaz, J. von Oy et autres

Abstract We present novel, ultra-thin, large-diameter silicon nitride windows for various soft X-ray applications. Together with the company NORCADA, we developed windows with 200 nm and 300 nm thickness withstanding pressure differences above 1 bar. The windows have an open diameter of …

Design and performance of a 96-channel resistive PICOSEC Micromegas detector for ENUBET

A. Kallitsopoulou, Y. Angelis, R. Aleksan, A. Bonenfant et autres

Abstract The PICOSEC-Micromegas (PICOSEC-MM) detector is a fast gaseous detector concept that achieves picosecond-level timing. It couples a Cherenkov radiator, typically an MgF 2 crystal, to a Micromegas-based photodetector equipped with a photocathode, allowing the fast photoelectron-induced signal to suppress the intrinsic …

Spatial resolution studies with the BabyIAXO Micromegas prototype

J. Castel, S. Cebrián, T Dafni, David Díez-Ibáñez et autres

The spatial resolution of the Micromegas prototype developed for the BabyIAXO experiment was evaluated using a low-energy X-ray beam at the SOLEIL synchrotron facility. BabyIAXO, currently under construction, aims to search for hypothetical solar axions. A key component of the experiment is …

X-ray imaging with Micromegas detectors with optical readout

A. Cools, S. Aune, Fabrice Beau, F. Brunbauer et autres

Abstract In the last years, optical readout of Micromegas gaseous detectors has been achieved by implementing a Micromegas detector on a glass anode coupled to a CMOS camera. Effective X-ray radiography was demonstrated using integrated imaging approach. High granularity values have been …

Characterization of Microbulk Micromegas detectors through digital image processing

B. Biasuzzi, A.R. Cools, E. Ferrer-Ribas, A. Giganon et autres

Microbulk Micromegas (MICRO-MEsh GAseous Structure) detectors are gaseous parallel plate detectors for the tracking of charged particles, used mainly in rare-event searches thanks to their intrinsic high radiopurity. The core of such detectors (mesh, pillars, and readout) can be produced through standard …
