A High Pressure Xenon Time Projection Chamber for Double Beta Decay
<p>This thesis describes the design, construction and performance of a high-pressure, xenon, gas time projection chamber (TPC) for the study of double beta decay in ¹³⁶Xe. The TPC when operating at 5 atm can accommodate 28 moles of 60% enriched ¹³⁶Xe. The TPC has operated as a detector at Calt...
