Description

Three types of drift chambers are being constructed for the Fermilab D0 experiment. The construction and readout of these chambers stress good spatial resolution, good two hit separation, and dE/dx measurement. A 106 MHz FADC system with hardware zero suppression is being constructed to read out this system. (orig.)
