Description
A large area transition radiation detector has been proposed for the European Hybrid Spectrometer at CERN. Its construction is based on experience with a smaller size model detector which has been tested in hadron beams between 40 and 140 GeV/c momentum. The detector allows identification of pions versus kaons and protons at momenta beyond approx. 90 GeV/c. (orig.)
