Description

The CYGNO experiment aims at the development of a high-resolution gaseous Time Projection Chamber (TPC) with an optical readout, operated at atmospheric pressure and room temperature, for rare events searches. The gas of choice is a mixture of helium and carbon tetrafluoride, and the primary charge amplification is performed with Gas Electron Multipliers (GEMs) .
