A prototype coordinate detector based on granulated thin-walled drift tubes
A prototype detector based on thin-walled segmented tubes has been developed and its parameters have been studied. The detector contains 360 registration channels with a straw diameter of 4 mm. The prototype’ granularity is 4 сm 2 and the length of insensitive region due to straw internal elements i...

Summary: | A prototype detector based on thin-walled segmented tubes has been developed and its parameters have been studied. The detector contains 360 registration channels with a straw diameter of 4
mm. The prototype’ granularity is 4
сm
2 and the length of insensitive region due to straw internal elements is less than 5% of its full sensitive area. Deterioration of the spatial resolution near these elements is observed for 1.0% of the detector sensitive area. The time and spatial parameters of the detector do not differ from those of conventional tracking detectors based on drift tubes. |
