China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) is a large-scale scientific facility which is a source of high-flux pulsed neutrons. It contains a 80 MeV linear proton accelerator, a 1.6 GeV rapid cycling synchrotron, a target station, and a suite of modern neutron instruments mainly for application to neutron scattering, imaging, and other kinds of neutron science research to promote high-level...
Resistive electrodes are used in gaseous detectors to quench spark discharges. This helps to protect delicate electrodes and readout electronics and to improve the stability of the detector operation. An RPWELL is a THGEM-based WELL detector with a resistive plate coupled to a conductive anode. Till now, the choice of the resistive plate was limited to a few materials, like LRS Glass and...
Gaseous Ring Imaging Cherenkov (RICH) detectors are the natural choice to perform hadron identification at high momenta; they require efficient and accurate detection of single Cherenkov photons over large surfaces. MPGD detectors of single photons are sensitive in the vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) domain. In present, CsI is the only photoconverter adequate with gaseous detector due to its wide...
