Abstract
A straw tube drift chamber prototype has been constructed and tested. The straw tube material is mylar film covered with a carbon layer with a resistivity of 0.5, 30 and 70 k Omega/square. Both the anode wire a nd the cathode strip signals were detected to study the behaviour of t he chamber in the presence of X-ray ionization. The construction and t he results of the study are presented.
