Workshop on TPCs at high rate experiments

27 Feb 2013, 18:00 → 1 Mar 2013, 14:00 Europe/Berlin

Seminarraum HISKP (HISKP, Universität Bonn)

This workshop is held to discuss special topics regarding TPCs at high rate experiments with continuous readout. In particular the special requirements on the readout electronics, the ion backflow, and the resulting field distortions will be discussed as well as modes of calibrating the field configurations. Finally, also the aging of the gas ampification structures will be considered. The workshop is supported by HISKP, PI and the SFB/TR16.
