Development of a straw tube chamber with pickup-pad readout
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have developed a straw tube chamber with pickup-pad readout. The mechanism for signal pickup, the size of the pickup signal, and the distribution of signals among neighboring pads are discussed. We have tested a prototype chamber in a beam test at Brookhaven National Laboratory and have measured chamber e$ciencies in excess of 99%. ( 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Wire Arrays Vs Vidicons: a Comparison of Large Wire Arrays with Optical Spark Chambers Using Vidicon Readout
Digitized spark-chamber systems using wire arrays are being used for increas ingly complex types of events; their chief virtue is the provision of "on-line II informa tion on the progre ss of the experiment, which we inte rpret as rapid enough to aIIow the results obtained to influence the future course of the experiment. Such on-line operation can also be obtained by several other methods fo...
متن کاملTPC Performance in Magnetic Fields with GEM and Pad Readout
A novel charged particle tracking device, a high precision time projection chamber with gas electron multiplier and pad readout, is a leading candidate as the central tracker for an experiment at the International Linear Collider. To characterize the performance of such a system, a small TPC has been operated within a magnetic field, measuring cosmic-ray and laser tracks. Good tracking resoluti...
متن کاملImproving Cyclone Efficiency by Recycle and Jet Impingement Streams
In this paper a new process is presented for improving efficiency of cyclone de-dusting systems. The cyclone is coupled with a specially designed cylindrical chamber which includes a rotating tube inside it with air impinging nuzzles, drilled on the peripheral surface of the tube. The nuzzles help in pushing and throwing the particles to the outer radius distances during downward flow of du...
