Abstract
Two types of mini-drift tubes differing in desig n of their cathodes-with open and closed geometries-have been experimentally compared. Though their main characteristics are practically identical, two coordinates can be read out of a single tube with the open cathode geometry by recording the signal from the anode wires and the signal induced on the external strip electrodes. This feature will be used to develop the muon system of the PANDA setup (FAIR).
