Position Reconstruction in Drift Chambers operated with Xe, CO2 (15%)
C. Adler
Abstract
We present measurements of position and angular resolution of drift chambers operated with a Xe,CO2(15%) mixture. The results are compared to Monte Carlo simulations and important systematic effects, in particular the dispersive nature of the absorption of transition radiation and non-linearities, are discussed. The measurements were carried out with prototype drift chambers of the ALICE Transition Radiation Detector, but our findings can be generalized to other drift chambers with similar geometry, where the electron drift is perpendicular to the wire planes.
