Thin-gap gas chambers for hadronic calorimetry

Abstract

A new type of thin multiwire gas detector operating in a high gain mode has been developed. Its characteristics have been optimized for calorimetric use. The setup for mass production, quality control and calibration for the OPAL Pole Tip Calorimeter Chambers is presented as an application of such a device. Other possible applications as an electromagnetic presampler as well as its use in a high resolution calorimeter are also discussed.
