Abstract

The aging behavior of wire chambers have been of great interest for many years. Recently a new generation of proportional chambers have been developed including the microstrip gas chamber (MSGC) microgap chamber (MGC) and gaseous electron multiplier (GEM). Aging studies of these detectors are of particular interest to the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) community because the baseline design of the CMS experiment includes MSGCs as part of the tracking system. We have performed an aging study of a GEM detector readout with a MSGC.
