Abstract
Precise measurement of straw axial coordinate (along the anode wire) with accuracy compatible with straw radial coordinate determination by drift time measurement and increase of straw detector rate capability by using straw cathode readout instead of anode readout are presented.
Highlights
The detectors which are based on thin wall straws with a diameter from 4 to 10 mm are widely used today as coordinate detectors, for example in the experiments [1,2,3,4]
Each straw serves as an individual detector and in case of breakdown it doesn’t influence the operation of the rest straws
We propose a new method of developing a straw detector with high rate capability
Summary
The detectors which are based on thin wall straws with a diameter from 4 to 10 mm are widely used today as coordinate detectors, for example in the experiments [1,2,3,4]. Straw detector rate capability is defined by its granularity (straw diameter and anode readout segmentation). The axial coordinate measurement (along the anode wire) is based on reading the induced signals from straw cathode segments (“cathode straw”).
