Performance of the drift tubes for the barrel muon chambers of the CMS detector at LHC

The barrel muon chambers of the CMS detector consist of three sets of four layers of rectangular drift tubes. The performance of several prototypes was measured in a muon beam for various experimental conditions. Special emphasis was given to study performance aspects related to the trigger capabili...

Description
Summary:The barrel muon chambers of the CMS detector consist of three sets of four layers of rectangular drift tubes. The performance of several prototypes was measured in a muon beam for various experimental conditions. Special emphasis was given to study performance aspects related to the trigger capability of the chambers.
