Description
I’ll describe our recent progress with THGEM detectors. Unlike high-resolution Micropattern Gas Detectors (MPGD), like GEM and Micromegas, the aim is to conceive robust, industrially mass-produced medium-resolution detectors, required in numerous applications. The direct target application has been Semi Digital and Digital Hadronic Calorimeter (DHCAL) for future collider experiments. However, THGEM-based detectors are capable of operation under high radiation flux, providing nanosecond-scale response, with sub-millimeter localization capabilities and energy-proportional response. Thus, our study has potential interest for many other scientific (particle-physics, astro-particle physics) and non-scientific (home-land security, medicine, volcanology, etc.) applications. New results from a test beam campaign carried out last December will be presented.
