Michael Schenk evaluates new technologies and methods, such as
cryogenic read-out electronics and a UV laser system, developed to
optimise the performance of large liquid argon time projection
chambers (LArTPC). Amongst others, the author studies the
uniformity of the electric field produced by a Greinacher
high-voltage generator operating at cryogenic temperatures,
measures the linear energy transfer (LET) of muons and the
longitudinal diffusion coefficient of electrons in liquid argon.
The results are obtained by analysing events induced by cosmic-ray
muons and UV laser beams. The studies are carried out with
ARGONTUBE, a prototype LArTPC in operation at the University of
Bern, Switzerland, designed to investigate the feasibility of drift
distances of up to five metres for electrons in liquid argon.
