Abstract

Motivated mainly by future detector upgrades at HL-LHC and at future colliders, the Small-pad resistive MICROMEGAS prototypes were designed to overcome the actual limitations of more standard strip resistive MICROMEGAS. In these new prototypes, small pads with a few mm2 area replace the readout strips to reduce the occupancy, and the spark protection resistive layer has been redesigned and optimized with different techniques to permit a safe behaviour of the detector, without efficiency loss, at rates of the order of tens MHz cm−2 over large surfaces.
