Coordinate detectors based on thin-wall drift tubes

Abstract

Design features and basic parameters of the detectors based on straw trackers are reviewed using the example of the studies and development of trackers in a number of operating and proposed accelerator experimental facilities. The results of methodological studies aimed at qualitatively improving the spatial/time resolution and high rate capability of the detector and enhancing the performance capabilities of such detectors used for particle detection in a high multiplicity environment (and in high-luminosity experiments) are presented.
