  • Abstract
    The successful operation of a liquid-xenon ionisation chamber with imaging capability is reported. A bi-dimensional readout based on a mini-strip plate—a glass slab with metal strips deposited along two perpendicular directions—was developed and studied both experimentally and by computation. An image of a 122 keV γ-source of 5 mm diameter was obtained with a liquid-xenon ionisation chamber equipped with such readout. A position resolution better than 2 mm was achieved.
