Abstract

The design and assembling procedure of a precision drift tube housed in a Mylar pipe are described. The technology for manufacturing drift tube bodies from a 125-μm-thick Mylar film with an aluminum coating evaporated on both sides of it is introduced. The test procedures and results demonstrating the performance characteristics of the drift tubes are presented.
