Results from the calibration of Z chambers with cosmic muons

Abstract

We describe a cosmic ray calibration procedure applied to L3 Z muon chambers. The experimental set up, and the method of data analysis used, are presented. We show the results obtained with different gas mixtures. The effect of variations in the values of some parameters, like the discriminator thresholds or the sense wire high voltages, on the chamber resolution and on the track reconstruction efficiency, is also reported.
