Test of a proportional tube modulus used to localize the electromagnetic showers in a calorimeter
Description
In this work are given results of a test in an electron-hadron beam (5-92 GeV) of the prototype of a position detector. This position detector consists of proportional tubes with charge division readout; it will be used in the end cap electromagnetic calorimeter ('bouchon') of the UA1 experiment at CERN (pantip collisions at a center of mass energy of 540 GeV). This detector gives the position of the showers, and also a coarse value of their energy. Results about properties of the tubes (saturation phenomena, position and energy accuracies) and, then, results about the development of high energy electromagnetic showers in lead-plastic sandwich are given here

Cette these a pour sujet les tests, dans un faisceau d'electrons et de hadrons de haute energie (5-92 GeV) d'un prototype de detecteur de position. Ce detecteur est forme de tubes proportionnels lus par division de charge, et sera utilise a l'interieur des calorimetres electromagnetiques de bout ('bouchons') de l'experience UA1 (collisions pantip a une energie de 540 GeV dans le centre de masse) au CERN. Il permet de mesurer la position des gerbes electromagnetiques et egalement de connaitre la valeur approximative de leur energie. Sont presentes ici des resultats concernant, d'une part, les proprietes des tubes (phenomenes de saturation, resolution en position, en energie, ...) et, d'autre part, le developpement des gerbes electromagnetiques dans les sandwiches plomb/plexiglassFiles
