Developing Production Technology and Control Methods for Micromegas Detectors

At present, there are two Micromegas detector production sites at the Dzhelepov Laboratory of Nuclear Problems, Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (DLNP JINR). The first site provides the production and testing of Micromegas chambers for the outer part of the large sectors (LM2) of the New Small Wheels for the ATLAS Muon spectrometer. It will produce and test 64 double-sided readout panels with a surface area of 3 m2 each and 32 Micromegas chambers based on them. Component materials for all project participants are centrally delivered from CERN. The second site is for a complete production cycle and intended for the research and development of Micromegas detectors with widths reaching 60 cm.
