O. Adriani et al., PERFORMANCE OF A PROTOTYPE OF THE CMS CENTRAL DETECTOR, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section A, Accelerators, spectrometers, detectors and associated equipment, 367(1-3), 1995, pp. 189-192
A prototype of the barrel Tracking Detector of the Compact Muon Soleno
id (CMS) experiment proposed for LHC was built and tested in a beam an
d in a magnetic field of up to 3 T. It contained six microstrip gas ch
ambers, 25 cm long, and three double-sided silicon microstrip detector
s, 12.5 cm long. We report some preliminary results on the performance
of the chambers.
