This book discusses a novel and high-rate-capable micro pattern gaseous detector of the Micromegas (MICRO-MEsh GAS detector) type. It provides a detailed characterization of the performance of Micromegas detectors on the basis of measurements and simulations, along with an in-depth examination of analysis and reconstruction methods. The accurate and efficient detection of minimum ionizing particles in high-rate background environments is demonstrated. The excellent performance determined here for these lightweight detectors will make possible the live medical imaging of a patient during ion-beam treatment.

Introduction.- Functional Principle of Micromegas.- Floating Strip Micromegas.- Methods.- Floating Strip Micromegas Characterization Measurements.- Specific Applications of Floating Strip Micromegas.- Performance and Properties of Micromegas.- Summary.
