A Way of Determining the Spatial Resolution of Straw Tubes

  • Published:
Bulletin of the Russian Academy of Sciences: Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

New experiments in high energy physics require either higher energies or higher sensitivity. This results in the need for such highly sensitive detectors as spectrometric trackers. Such trackers can be made using straw tubes, i.e., proportional counters with high spatial resolution as a result of measuring the drift time of particles from the track to the tube wire. To optimize the tracker design at the planning stage, it is necessary to determine the best configuration of the straw tubes themselves. This proposes a way of determining the spatial resolution of straw tubes to find the optimum parameters of the tubes for further optimization of a spectrometric tracker.
