Gas contamination and mitigation in a 100 m$^3$ / 10 bar argon TPC with optical readout: a viability study

Gas contamination and mitigation in a 100 m$^3$ / 10 bar argon TPC with optical readout: a viability study

Gaseous Optical Time Projection Chambers (OTPCs) aimed at Neutrino Physics and Rare Event Searches will likely exceed the tonne scale during the next decade. This will make their performance sensitive to gas contamination levels as low as 100 ppb, that is challenging at room temperature due to outgassing from structural …
