Si$\Lambda$ViO: A Trigger for $\Lambda$-Particles (2009)

Muenzer, Robert, Fabbietti, Laura, Berger, Martin, Hartmann, Olaf

The production of bound kaon-nucleon-states (kaonic-cluster) in the reaction $p+p\to [ppK^{-}] + K^{+}$ should be investigated in a dedicated measurement at the FOPI detector system at the...

Development of a GEM-TPC prototype (2009)

Angerer, Heinz, Beck, Reinhard, Berger, Martin, Boehmer, Felix, Buehler, Paul, ...

The use of GEM foils for the amplification stage of a TPC instead of a con- ventional MWPC allows one to bypass the necessity of gating, as the backdrift is suppressed thanks to the asymmetric field...
