The main characteristics of the COMPASS experimental setup for physics with hadron beams are described. This was designed to perform exclusive measurements processes several charged and/or neutral particles in final state. Making use a large part apparatus that previously built spin structure studies muon beam, it also features new target system as well or upgraded detectors. is able operate at high incident flux available CERN. It characterised by angular and momentum coverages, nearly flat...

In the context of a project to upgrade gas photon detectors of COMPASS RICH-1, we have performed an R&D programme aimed to develop detectors based on multi-layer arrangements of thick GEM electron multipliers coupled CsI photoconverter. For this purpose, thick GEMs been characterised in detail including gain performance, its dependance the geometrical parameters and time-evolution, feature exhibited by with open insulator surfaces. The variation due evolution drammatically depends on the...

The THicK GEM (THGEM) electron multipliers are derived from the design, by scaling geometrical parameters and changing production technology. Small-size (a few cm2) detectors exhibit superb performance, while larger ones gain response uniformity limitations. We have studied with a systematic approach several aspects concerning material (type thickness of fibreglass plates) procedure, in particular cleaning polishing stages. net result is large THGEM reproducing performance small ones. report...

In fundamental research, gas detectors of single photons are a must in the field Cherenkov imaging techniques (RICH counters) for particle identification large momentum ranges and with wide coverage phase space domain. These counters, already extensively used, foreseen setups future experiments variety fields nuclear physics. The quest novel gaseous photon detector is dictated by fact that present generation has unique characteristics concerning operation magnetic field, low material budget...
