A novel technique for the measurement of the avalanche fluctuation of gaseous detectors
We have developed a novel technique for the measurement of the avalanche
fluctuation of gaseous detectors using a UV laser. The technique is simple and
requires a short data-taking time of about ten minutes. Furthermore, it is
applicable for relatively low gas gains. Our experimental setup as well as the
measurement principle, and the results obtained with a stack of Gas Electron
Multipliers (GEMs) operated in several gas mixtures are presented.Comment: 7 pages, 7 figures. For the proceedings of VCI2016, to be published

A Time Projection Chamber with GEM-Based Readout
For the International Large Detector concept at the planned International
Linear Collider, the use of time projection chambers (TPC) with micro-pattern
gas detector readout as the main tracking detector is investigated. In this
paper, results from a prototype TPC, placed in a 1 T solenoidal field and read
out with three independent GEM-based readout modules, are reported. The TPC was
exposed to a 6 GeV electron beam at the DESY II synchrotron. The efficiency for
reconstructing hits, the measurement of the drift velocity, the space point
resolution and the control of field inhomogeneities are presented.Comment: 22 pages, 19 figure

MPGDs for TPCs at future lepton colliders
This submission will focus on advancements and advantages of Micro Pattern Gas Detector (MPGD) technologies and their applications to the construction of a dedicated Time Projection Chamber (TPC) that can serve as an excellent main tracker for any multipurpose detector that can be foreseen to operate at a future lepton collider. The first portion of the report will be the executive summary. It will be followed by sections detailing the applications of MPGDs specifically to the construction of the LCTPC for the ILD at ILC, for a possible upgrade of the Belle II detector at SuperKEKB and for the design of a TPC for a detector at CEPC. MPGD technologies offer synergies with other detector R&D and several application domains; a few examples will be provided in the context of the ongoing Snowmass long range planning exercise in the USA. Links to industrial partnership and work with institutions in the USA will be highlighted when appropriate

Double-hit separation and dE/dx resolution of a time projection chamber with GEM readout
A time projection chamber (TPC) with micropattern gaseous detector (MPGD) readout is investigated as main tracking device of the International Large Detector (ILD) concept at theplanned International Linear Collider (ILC). A prototype TPC equipped with a triple gas electron multiplier (GEM) readout has been built and operated in an electron test beam. The TPC wasplaced in a 1 T solenoidal field at the DESY II Test Beam Facility, which provides an electron beam up to 6 GeV/c. The performance of the readout modules, in particular the spatial point resolution, is determined and compared to earlier tests. New studies are presented with first results on the separation of close-by tracks and the capability of the system to measure the specific energy loss dE/dx. This is complemented by a simulation study on the optimization of the readout granularity to improve particle identification by dE/dx
