Lessons from the operation of the Penning-Fluorescent TPC and prospects

We have recently reported the development of a new type of high-pressure Xenon time projection chamber operated with an ultra-low diffusion mixture and that simultaneously displays Penning effect and fluorescence in the near-visible region (300 nm). The concept, dubbed `Penning-Fluorescent TPC, allows the simultaneous reconstruction of primary charge and scintillation with high topological and calorimetric fidelity.
