Description
Book SynopsisAfter decades of research and development, emission detectors have recently become the most successful instrumentation used in modern fundamental experiments searching for cold dark matter, and are also considered for neutrino coherent scattering and magnetic momentum neutrino measurement. This book is the first monograph exclusively dedicated to emission detectors. Properties of two-phase working media based on noble gases, saturated hydrocarbon, ion crystals and semiconductors are reviewed.
Table of ContentsIntroduction: Heterophase Detectors and History of Development of Emission Detectors; Detection Media and Their Properties; Physics of Generation of Signals in Emission Detectors; Basics of Technology of Emission Detectors; Ionization Emission Detectors; Emission Detectors with Physical Amplification of Signals; Imaging Emission Detectors; Applications of Emission Detectors.
