TGEMS : defined as GEM detector which use thick PCboard (0.4 mm thick) size GEM preamplifiers with hole diameters between 0.5 and 1 mm (we have 0.5 diameter boards in stock).

PCboard spacing = 1.5 - 2 mm (distance between the centers of 2 holes in parallel layers is 1mm).

[math]V_{GEM} = 0.103 \times V_{Drift}[/math]

[math]V_{GEM}[/math] is between ~[300V, 600V] for [math]CF_4[/math] and for [math]Ar/CO_2[/math] it is [200V, 370V];

[math]V_{Drift}[/math] voltage is ~[2900V, 5800V] ([1950V, 4000V]) for [math]CF_4[/math] ([math]Ar/CO_2[/math]).

I used 2 Ortec timing amps to integrate the signal and amplify more than what we did for the standard GEM.

The following setttings were

Parameter Dial setting
Timing Amp1 x20
Timing Amp1 Integration 50 ns
Timing Amp2 x4
Timing Amp2 Integration 20 ns
CFD Threshold 5.22
CFD Threshold ULD 5.28
CFD Threshold LLD 3.04
