Research Interest
The ILC is a proposed new high energy electron-positron collider uniquely capable of new discoveries & to better understand LHC discoveries. A ~100 µm resolution Time Projection Chamber (TPC) has been proposed for the ILC tracker. The resolution goal is more than 2 times better than existing TPCs. Worldwide R&D effort to develop Micro Pattern Gas Detectors (MPGD) to meet the ILC TPC challenge. The Carleton group has developed a new concept of charge dispersion in a 2 dimensional R-C network for the ILC MPGD-TPC. Small prototype TPC tests demonstrate that the 100 µm resolution is achievable. Our TPC design concept is being further developed for the ILC.
