The status of the R&D on the Cylindrical-GEM (CGEM) detector foreseen as Inner Tracker for KLOE-2, the upgrade of the KLOE experiment at the DAFNE phi-factory, will be presented.
The R&D includes several activities: i) the construction and complete characterization of the full-size CGEM prototype, equipped with 650 micrometer pitch 1-D longitudinal strips; ii) the study of the 2-D readout...

Cryogenic avalanche detectors combine dense noble gas media at cryogenic temperatures with electron avalanche multipliers, namely with Gas Electron Multipliers (GEMs) or thick GEMs (THGEMs). Such detectors are relevant in the field of rare-event experiments, in particular in those of coherent neutrino-nucleus scattering, dark matter search and solar neutrino detection, and in the medical...

We present an imaging system consisting of a Timepix charge sensitive readout with an integrated Micromegas detector. The Al grid is supported by SU-8 pillars, this structure is post-processed directly onto the Timepix chip. The detector is made UV sensitive by evaporating a 200 nm thick reflective CsI photocathode onto the Al grid. With this technology we can create a monolithic imaging...
