Query: Plasma Panel Sensors for Particle and Beam Detection   The plasma panel sensor (PPS) is an inherently digital, high gain, novel
variant of micropattern gas detectors inspired by many operational and
fabrication principles common to plasma display panels (PDPs). The PPS is
comprised of a dense array of small, plasma discharge, gas cells within a
hermetically-sealed glass panel, and is assembled from non-reactive,
intrinsically radiation-hard materials such as glass substrates, metal
electrodes and mostly inert gas mixtures. We are developing the technology to
fabricate these devices with very low mass and small thickness, using gas gaps
of at least a few hundred micrometers. Our tests with these devices demonstrate
a spatial resolution of about 1 mm. We intend to make PPS devices with much
smaller cells and the potential for much finer position resolutions. Our PPS
tests also show response times of several nanoseconds. We report here our
results in detecting betas, cosmic-ray muons, and our first proton beam tests.
