Abstract:

A set of downloadable entries on particle detecttors and their principles in book(let) format with html links at: http://rkb.home.cern.ch/rkb/PH14pp/node1.html "The Particle Detector Brief Book." Authors' statement: "This is a condensed handbook, or an extended glossary, written in encyclopedic format, covering subjects around particle detectors, the underlying physics, and the analysis of their data. It intends to be both an introduction for newcomers and a reference for physicists working in the field... this is version 14, which is now also available as a [published] book. The Internet version will be updated occasionally, and is not necessarily identical to the printed version. In all cases, we appreciate your feedback: please send comments, error corrections, or your suggestions for new contributions, to R.K.Bock.Part of the information has been derived, with permission, from a booklet "FORMULAE AND METHODS IN EXPERIMENTAL DATA EVALUATION", published in 1984 by the European Physical Society for the use of experimental physicists (out of print since many years). This BriefBook is a major update and extension, but some original contributions by W.W.M.Allison (Oxford), C.W.Fabjan (Geneva), R.Frühwirth (Vienna), J.Myrheim (Copenhagen), and M.Regler (Vienna) are acknowledged. Parts related to data analysis were eliminated, they are now presented separately as "The Data Analysis BriefBook"). "
