Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2020148508A1] This elementary particle detector comprises: - first sensors (70) able to measure an amount of electric charge on electrodes of a readout plate (16); - a processing unit (80) able to determine the location of an avalanche of secondary electrons from the amount of electric charge measured by the first sensors and from the known location of the electrodes. The detector also comprises at least one second sensor (92), each second sensor being able to measure an electrical signal produced by the secondary electrons when they pass through a conductive gate (8). The processing unit (80) is additionally able to establish an arrival time of the elementary particle from a time at which the electrical signal is measured by the second sensor.
