We report the design and operation of a position sensitive threedimensional drift chamber with the capability of ionization sampling. This detector allows simultaneous measurement of the momentum and the mass of charged particles. The device is a prototype for a large detector system to be built at the PEP storage ring facility.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
