  • Abstract
    Two MICROMEGAS detectors, equipped with solid neutron converters, were tested on a neutron beam. The detectors have a 3 mm drift gap, a 100 μm amplification gap and a strip pitch of 317.5 μm. The filling gas mixtures used for this test were argon/isobutane (90:10 and 98:2) and pure CF4. We present preliminary results of the operation of the detectors
