Simulation of Space-Charge Effects in an Ungated GEM-based TPC
F.V. Böhmer,M. Ball,S. Dørheim,Ch. Höppner,B. Ketzer,I. Konorov,S. Neubert,Soumen Paul,Johannes Rauch,M. Vandenbroucke +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, Monte Carlo simulations of the buildup of ion space charge in a GEM-based TPC and the correction of the resulting drift distortions are discussed, based on realistic numbers for the ion backflow in a triple-GEM amplification stack.

Zero Ion Backflow electron multiplier operating in noble gases
TL;DR: In this paper, a zero ion backflow electron multiplier was proposed to suppress secondary ions in a gaseous detector composed of a proportional scintillation region and a Gaseous Photomultiplier.
