/ Cancelli, Stephanie (Milan Bicocca U. ; INFN, Milan Bicocca ; Bari U.) ; Muraro, Andrea (Bari U.) ; Murtas, Fabrizio (CERN ; Frascati) ; Cippo, Enrico Perelli (Bari U.) ; Altieri, Saverio (INFN, Pavia) ; Caruggi, Federico (Milan Bicocca U. ; INFN, Milan Bicocca) ; De Oliveira, Rui (CERN) ; Gorini, Giuseppe (Milan Bicocca U. ; INFN, Milan Bicocca ; Bari U.) ; Grosso, Giovanni (Bari U.) ; Lai, Chung-Chuan (ESS, Lund) et al.
During the last 10 years, the $^{3}$He crisis has brought to the development of new thermal neutron detection technologies and one of them is based on gas electron multiplier (GEM) principle. To detect neutrons, standard triple GEM detectors are usually coupled with a suitable converter, such as a $^{10}$B$_{4}$C, where neutrons are converted via the nuclear reaction $^{10}$B(n,$\alpha $)$^{7}$Li.

Performance of a triple GEM detector equipped with Al-GEM foils for X-rays detection

The study of Soft X-ray emission can be a source of fundamental information, particularly for what concerns tokamaks and plasma diagnostics, but also in general in the fields of high energy and nuclear physics. Detection systems based on Gas Electron Multipliers (GEM) technology can be of particular use in the context of X-ray analyses, being relatively low cost while maintaining good spatial and temporal resolution and capability to sustain high counting rates (up to MHz/mm2).

Development of the BAND-GEM detector solution for SANS experiments
/ Croci, Gabriele ; Muraro, Andrea ; Albani, Giorgia ; Cippo, Enrico Perelli ; Birch, Jens ; Grosso, Giovanni ; Höglund, Carina ; Hultman, Lars ; Murtas, Fabrizio ; Rebai, Marica et al.
New high count rate detectors are needed for future spallation neutron sources where large areas and high efficiency (>50%) detectors are envisaged. In this framework, GEM is one of the explored detector technologies since they feature good spatial resolution (<0.5 cm) and timing properties, have excellent rate capability (MHz/mm2) and can cover large areas (some m2) at low cost.

MBGEM: a stack of borated GEM detector for high efficiency thermal neutron detection

A new position-sensitive thermal neutron detector based on boron-coated converters has been developed as an alternative to today’s standard $^3\mathrm{He}$-based technology for application to thermal neutron scattering. The key elements of the development are the boron-coated GEM foils (Sauli in Nucl Instrum Methods Phys Res Sect A Accel Spectrom Detect Assoc Equip 386:531, 1997) that are used as a multi-layer neutron converter via the $^{10}\mathrm{B}(n,\alpha )^7\mathrm{Li}$ reaction together with an efficient collection of the produced secondary electrons.

Characterization of GEMINI, a 16-channels programmable readout interface for Triple-GEM detectors in 180nm CMOS
/ Mangiagalli, Luca ; Croci, Gabriele ; De Matteis, Marcello ; Tagnani, Diego ; Corradi, Giovanni ; Murtas, Fabrizio ; Gorini, Giuseppe ; Baschirotto, Andrea
The recent advances in GEM detector development has led to the requirement of a custom readout to fully exploit the advantages of this technology. GEM detectors can be realized with various shapes, also irregular, and high number of channels. [...]

Discharge probability measurement of a Triple GEM detector irradiated with neutrons
/ Croci, G (CERN) ; Alfonsi, M (CERN) ; Fanourakis, G (Democritos Nucl. Res. Ctr.) ; Karakostas, K (Natl. Tech. U., Athens) ; Ntomari, E (Democritos Nucl. Res. Ctr.) ; Ropelewski, L (CERN) ; Tsipolitis, G (Natl. Tech. U., Athens)
Neutron GEM-based detectors represent a new frontier of diagnostic devices in neutron-linked physics applications such as detectors for fusion experiments (Croci et al., 2012 [1]) and spallation sources (Murtas et al., 2012 [2]). Besides, detectors installed in HEP experiments (like LHC at CERN) are dip in a high flux neutron field. [...]
