摘要
In this work, we characterized an X-ray position sensitive gaseous detector based in a triple stack of gas electron multipliers. The readout circuit is divided in 256 strips for each dimension and using a resistive chain interconnecting the strips, we are able to reconstruct the radiation interaction points by resistive charge division. The detector achieved gains above 10(4), energy resolution of 15.28% (full width at half maximum) for 5.9 keV X-rays, and position resolution of 1.2 mm, while operating in Ar/CO2(90/10) at atmospheric pressure.
