Description

It is described that the function, structure, amplitude characteristics and results of cosmic ray test of a prototype of the central drift chamber for Beijing Spectrometer (BES). It was found that if appropriate high voltage is applied on the field wires homogeneous signal amplitude from different Layer of the chamber can be obtained. The drift velocity deduced by track reconstruction is 5.3 cm/μs. The spatial resolution is about 134 μm
