气体探测器有成本低廉、制备简单、性能可靠和方便使用等特点。研制了一种5层板结构的延迟线平行板雪崩电离室（PPAC）,用于兰州放射性束流线（RIBLL）上开展的实验。在57.6 MeV/u的6He束流条件下测试了这种探测器对高能轻粒子的适用性,得到了位置分辨为1.8 mm (FWHM), 时间分辨为2.6 ns, 以及可靠的探测效率。The gas detectors have the characteristics of low cost, easy preparation, reliable capability and convenient for use etc. A delay line parallel plate avalanche counter(PPAC) with five plates has been developed for the experiments at Radioactive Ion Beam Line in Lanzhou(RIBLL). The applicability of counter for high energy light ion has been tested with 57.6 MeV/u 6He beam. A position resolution of ~1.8 mm(FWHM) and a timing resolution of ~2.6 ns are achieved. The detection efficiency is reasonable.     

Investigation of the energy resolution with a RETGEM detector

A novel Micro-pattern gaseous detector （MPGD）, thick GEM with electrodes made of a resistive material （RETGEM） is presented. In this paper we mainly investigate the energy resolution of a RETGEM in Ar＋CO2 with different gas mixtures. The results indicate that an energy resolution 30% in single and double mode can be obtained. The existence of an optimum energy resolution is discussed.     

RETGEM探测器的初步测试

研制了一种新型的带有阻抗性电极的TGEM——RETGEM(Thick GEM with Resistive Electrodes)探测器, 阻抗性电极可以有效地保护探测器和前端电子学免于偶尔放电的损伤。 对RETGEM探测器进行了初步测试, 其中包括计数率、能量分辨、增益以及打火率。 结果表明, 探测器达到了设计的基本要求。 In this study we present preliminary results from a new detector: a thick gaseous electron multiplier(GEM) with resistive electrodes. The resistive electrodes protect the detector and the front end electronics from damage by occasional discharges. In different gas mixtures, we test Thick GEM with Resistive Electrodes(RETGEM) detector for the first time, including counting rate, energy resolution, effective gain, and discharge probability. The results can satisfy the basic demand of RETGEM detector design.     

MICROMEGAS探测器初步测试

介绍了一种利用鱼线做放大区间隔的MICROMEGAS探测器, 灵敏面积为50 mm ×50 mm。 在Ar+CO₂（10%）气体条件下, 利用55Fe源5.9 keV的 X射线对MICROMEGAS探测器进行了初步测试: 计数率大于103 Hz的条件下, 计数率坪长达到280 V; 当栅极电压在800 V时能量分辨为30%; 当增益高于104时打火率低于10-4; PCB板读出条周期为400 μm条件下的位置分辨好于120 μm。 结果表明, 研制的MICROMEGAS探测器达到了初步设计的基本要求。 In this paper,A MICROMEGAS(Micro Mesh Gaseous Structure) detector with the amplification gap defined by stretching nylon fishing lines has been described . And its count plateau, gas gain and energy resolution in the condition of a 55Fe X ray source and Ar CO₂ (10%) mixture gases are measured as functions of mesh voltage. The count plateau approaches 280 V at the count rate of 103 Hz. The discharge rate is less than 10－4 when the gas gain is up to 104. The energy resolution is 30% (FWHM) based on －800 V mesh voltage. The position resolution is less than 120 μm at the condition of the sensitive area (50 mm×50 mm) Printed Circuit Boards (PCB) and its strip pitch of 400 μm. The results can satisfy the basic demand of MICROMEGAS detector preliminary design.
