Description

Explore the fundamentals of particle acceleration and detection with this specialized text from Springer. This book provides a detailed look at drift chambers, which are essential apparatuses used for measuring the space coordinates of a charged particle trajectory. Readers will learn how these systems work by detecting ionization electrons produced by charged particles within the chamber gas. The text covers the measurement of drift times and arrival positions on sensitive electrodes to achieve precise coordinate determination. It also traces the historical development of the technology, starting from the introduction of the multiwire proportional chamber, also known as the Charpak chamber, in 1968. This resource is ideal for those studying the scientific principles established by pioneers such as Bressani, Charpak, Rahm, and Zupa. Whether you are researching particle physics or studying electrical engineering and technology, this book offers a foundational understanding of how signal timing contributes to coordinate determination in particle detection systems.

Key Features
