Figure 5
Simulation of the signal diffusion behaviour of the PCB-readout structure (Wagner et al., 2002) for a -like input signal at three different charge impact positions (cf. Fig. 2 for node denotation): (a) symmetrically between node 0 and 1 on the low-resistivity cell border; (b) cell centre; (c) close to node 2. The displayed currents are read out at node 1. Since the absolute current values obtained at impact positions (b) and (c) are very small compared with those obtained at position (a), we scaled the plotted functions arbitrarily to increase the clarity of the figure. |
