Properties of Micromegas Pad Detectors — •Andreas Düdder, Tai-Hua Lin, Matthias Schott, and Chrysostomos Valderanis — Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz
Micromegas detectors with a resisitive strip layout are well suited to measure particle tracks in high rate enviroments. However, classical Micromegas with a 2D strip readout structure can lead to ambiguities in the track reconstruction. This problem can be solved by adding an additional Micromegas layer with a pad readout structure.
In this talk first results obtained with a 10*10 cm2 Micromegas detector with 500 pads are presented. Two different layouts are compared and discussed.
