Aging study of a gas electron multiplier detector with microstrip gas chamber readout

Abstract:

The aging behavior of wire chambers have been of great interest for many years. Recently a new generation of proportional chambers have been developed including the microstrip gas chamber (MSGC) microgap chamber (MGC) and gaseous electron multiplier (GEM). Aging studies of these detectors are of particular interest to the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) community because the baseline design of the CMS experiment includes MSGCs as part of the tracking system. We have performed an aging study of a GEM detector readout with a MSGC. The GEM is constructed from Kapton and copper, the MSGC is constructed from semiconductive glass and gold. When the detector is operated in argon and dimethyl ether (DME) gas mixture and irradiated with a 6 KeV photon beam, about 220 mC/cm of charge can be accumulated without degradation of the detector performance. This corresponds to about 20 years of operation at the LHC.
