Summary

This paper describes the development and characterisation of a resistive-plate well (RPWELL) detector utilising argon gas mixtures, intended to function as a robust gaseous radiation detector for nuclear physics applications. The authors evaluated the detector's performance across a range of operational parameters to assess its suitability for use in high-energy physics experiments. The work contributes to advances in detector instrumentation technology for experimental nuclear physics research.

UK applicability

This paper addresses specialist instrumentation for high-energy physics research and does not directly apply to farming systems, soil health, nutrient density or human nutrition research—the core domains of Vitagri's Pulse Brain. It is fundamentally outside the scope of this catalogue.

Key measures

Detector performance metrics under various operational conditions; gas mixture composition and detector response characteristics

Outcomes reported
