Development of a Geant4 Solid for Stereo Mini-jet Cells in a Cylindrical Drift Chamber
Stereo mini-jet cells will be indispensable components of a future ee linear collider central tracker such as JLC-CDC. There is, however, no official Geant4 solid available at present to describe such geometrical objects, which had been a major obstacle for us to develop a full Geant4-based simulator with stereo cells built in. We have thus extended Geant4 to include a new solid (TwistedTubs), ...
متن کاملDosimetric characterization of a large area pixel-segmented ionization chamber.
A pixel-segmented ionization chamber has been designed and built by Torino University and INFN. The detector features a 24 x 24 cm2 active area divided in 1024 independent cylindrical ionization chambers and can be read out in 500 micros without introducing dead time; the digital charge quantum can be adjusted between 100 fC and 800 fC. The sensitive volume of each single ionization chamber is ...
متن کاملProperties and performances of a frontend ASIC prototype for the readout of the CMS Barrel Muon Drift Tubes Chambers
A frontend Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) prototype developed for the read out of the CMS barrel muon drift tubes chambers has been produced in 100 samples. Several chips were used to read out one superlayer (224 drift tubes) of a full size prototype chamber. The properties of the chips and the performance of the chamber part equipped with the frontend prototype are presented.
متن کاملThe BaBar Drift Chamber
The central drift chamber for the BaBar detector at the PEP-II Bfactory at SLAC is a cylindrical chamber with a length of 280 cm and outer radius of 81 cm. It consists of 40 layers of small hexagonal cells arranged in 10 axial and stereo super-layers. In order to minimize multiple scattering, light materials are used for the mechanical structure, and the gas mixture is Helium based. The pulse-h...
متن کاملPerformance of a Time-Projection-Chamber with a Large-Area Micro-Pixel-Chamber Readout
A micro time-projection-chamber (micro-TPC) with a detection volume of 23×28×31 cm was developed, and its fundamental performance was examined. The micro-TPC consists of a micro pixel chamber with a detection area of 31×31 cm as a two-dimensional imaging device and a gas electron multiplier with an effective area of 23×28 cm as a pre-gas-multiplier. The micro-TPC was operated at a gas gain of 5...
