Abstract

In this paper a phase-compensated distributed parameter electromagnetic delay line suitable for the readout of the positions of ionizing tracks in multi-wire proportional chambers is described. Delay lines with delays of 40 to 200 ns/cm having a rectangular cross section have been designed. The rectangular cross section enables them to be capacitatively coupled to the wire chamber simply by clamping them on the wire chamber external leads. The coupling coefficients between the chamber and delay line are approximately 3 to 10%. The electronic readout accuracy is better than ±0.1 mm due to the delay line.
