Scintillators as an external trigger for cathode strip chambers J. In a CSC layer, the anode wires are in the azimuthal direction and the cathode strips are in the radial direction. Event: Each event is distinguished by a run number, event number, luminosity section, and time stamp . To reproduce the experimental conditions, the intensity of the muon stream in our model had the impulse structure of 40MHz rate. The chambers were irradiated over a large area: in total, about 2.1m**2 or 700m of wire in each chamber. Microstrip gas chambers achieve high precision and high rate by emulating the field structure of multiwire chambers using a sequence of alternating anode and cathode strips on an insulating support. Two CMS production Cathode Strip Chambers were tested for aging effects in the high radiation environment at the Gamma Irradiation Facility at CERN. The 3.4×1.2 m 2 six-plane prototype has been reliably operated over one year and the cosmic-ray tests showed that it was capable of detecting muons with ∼80 μm spatial and ∼5 ns time resolutions.

CiteSeerX - Document Details (Isaac Councill, Lee Giles, Pradeep Teregowda): The ME1/1 cathode strip chambers are the part of the CMS endcap muon system. The production, installation, and testing of 468 cathode strip chambers for the endcap muon system of the CMS experiment played a critical role in the preparation of the endcap muon system for the final commissioning. The multi-wire chamber uses an array of wires at high voltage (), which run through a chamber with conductive walls held at ground potential ().Alternatively, the wires may be at ground potential and the cathode held at a high negative voltage; the important thing is that a uniform electric field draws extra electrons or negative ions to the anode wires with little lateral motion. They were designed and produced in Dubna. Using photolithography instead of physical wires, the distance between sensitive elements can be reduced to a fraction of a millimetre.
