โœฆ Synopsis


We briefly present the principal properties of THGEM detectors, in standard and in noble gases (Xe, Kr, Ar and Ne), and shortly discuss their potential applications in accelerator-and non-accelerator-based experiments. UV-photon imaging in RICH, tracking of ionizing particles, large-volume TPCs for rareevents, sampling elements in digital calorimetry, ionization and scintillation recording from nobleliquid detectors, X-ray and neutron radiography etc.

The neutron microdosimetric responses of the thick gas electron multiplier (THGEM) detector were simulated. The THGEM is a promising device for microdosimetry, particularly for measuring the dose spectra of intense radiation fields and for collecting two-dimensional microdosimetric distributions. To
