Current status of GEM: the best collider experiment at the SSC
Description
A broadly based international collaboration has been formed in order to exploit the physics opportunities offered by the construction of the SSC. Although the GEM detector will emphasize precise measurement of muons, electrons and photons, it will also provide excellent hadron calorimetry and tracking. The current status of the experiment and the anticipated capabilities of the GEM detector are reviewed briefly in this report. (orig.)
