Ueno, Koji

This note describes the design characteristics of the AMY central drift changer (CDC) and its performance during its operation for the first year since it was installed in the AMY solenoid on October 24, 1986. In general, the chamber has performed according to our original specifications, providing us with good efficiency and excellent spatial resolution. 5 figs.
