Design of a Gas Monitoring Chamber for High Pressure Applications — •Philip Hamacher-Baumann, Lukas Koch, Thomas Radermacher, Stefan Roth, and Jochen Steinmann — Physikalisches Institut IIIB, RWTH Aachen University

Currently, High Pressure Time Projection Chambers (HP-TPC) are intensely discussed in the neutrino detector community. Employing operation pressures of up to 10 bar comes with new challenges for detector construction and gas quality monitoring. This necessitates new gas monitoring chambers, capable of measuring drift and gain properties in such a high pressure regime. This talk presents the design of such a system, operable at pressures between 1 bar and 10 bar.
