Abstract :
A new MICROMEGAS detector readout scheme that protects the readout electronics from damage caused by discharge initiated by large gas amplification has been studied. In the new method, the signal is produced by a readout plane placed below the MICROMEGAS detector anodes. The ratio of the signal amplitude on the readout plane was more than 65% of the signal amplitude on the cathode of the MICROMEGAS.
