Fast tracking detector using multidrift tubes

  • 1. European Organization for Nuclear Research, Geneva (Switzerland)

Description

We describe a tracking detector designed as an assembly of multidrift tube modules; because of its fast time-resolution and good position accuracy, coupled with high reliability, the device seems suitable for operation as vertex detector at a collider, and for other high-rate applications. Recent measurements of localization accuracy obtained when operating the modules with a dimethyl ether gas filling are presented. (orig.)
