Mesh
Introduction
• Micro pixel chamber (-PIC)– Position resolution ( - 100m)– Timing resolution ( < 100ns)– High rate capability
( > 107c/sec/mm2)
• With micro mesh– Higher gain in stable
operation (>104)

Effect using micro mesh
• Higher Electric field around the anode– Vertical direction against
detection flat– Without increase of e-field
near cathode edge Higher gas gain will
attain safely
• Reduction of positive ion distribution across detection volume

Applications
• Replacement of -PIC with GEM– Real time imaging device for
• X-ray• Gamma-ray• Charged particle• Neutron• etc.
• TPC– Low ion diffuse

Prototype test• Micro mesh was mounted on -PIC
– Supported by plastic film / nylon wire• Support structure is future tasks
– Distance between -PIC and wire• About 300m
– Micro mesh is connected to HV controller
• Operation gas– Ar:C2H6 = 90:10

Current status of development
• Came up with the new idea -PIC with micro mesh
• Prototypes were made and tested– Gas multiplicity of it is more than 3 times– More studies are needed for tuning up the parameters
• Simulation studies Keika will talk
• There are many issue to study– How to hold the mesh on detector?– Optimization of geometries and operation voltage?– 2 dimensional readout and larger detection area– We have to get the budget for this project !!!
• There is no budget about this project yet !!
