About this document
THGEM Detectors: Properties and Applications by Carie Manarondong is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document summarizes the properties and applications of the Thick Gas Electron Multiplier (THGEM) detector. The THGEM is a robust radiation detector that can achieve high gains at moderate voltages in noble gases like Ne and Ar. It has sub-mm resolution and fast timing of a few ns. The document shows data on high gains achieved in Ne and Ne/CH4 mixtures. Applications discussed include use in particle physics experiments, medical imaging, neutron radiography, and rare event searches.
