Design, simulation and construction of a position sensitive X-ray gas detector

In this paper a one dimentional position-sensitive X-ray gas detector has been designed, simulated and constructed based on Multi Wire Proportional Chamber (MWPC) with delay line position readout. These kinds of detectors are useful in soft X-ray imaging and are capable of being extended to two dime...

Description
Summary:In this paper a one dimentional position-sensitive X-ray gas detector has been designed, simulated and constructed based on Multi Wire Proportional Chamber (MWPC) with delay line position readout. These kinds of detectors are useful in soft X-ray imaging and are capable of being extended to two dimensions position readout easily. The position resolution of this detector is estimated to be 230µm
