A method that mainly uses non-uniform cathode potentials to reduce the parallax error of planar type gas detectors is described. By applying it to MWPC and Micro-pattern gas detectors, the method reduces the parallax broadening with very good results. For a 13° incidence track, the width (FWHM) of the parallax broadening is reduced to less than 20% of the normal one after using the special cathode potentials.展开更多

In order to optimize the operation parameters of the detector, a simulation study of the detector was carried out using ANSYS and Garfield program. Some important characteristics, including primary electron transparency, avalanche development and the secondary electron loss were calculated. Parameters, such as electric field and gas choice were optimized.展开更多
