Typical gas gaps are a few hundred micrometers wide. Such counters were introduced in 1999 and have since reached timing accuracies below 50 ps [sigma] with efficiencies above 99% for MIPs. Applications in high-energy physics have already taken place with several more under study. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/4429 | DOI: | 10.1016/S0168-9002(04)01652-3 | Rights: | openAccess |
