T. Akesson et al., STUDY OF STRAW PROPORTIONAL TUBES FOR A TRANSITION RADIATION DETECTORTRACKER AT LHC, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section A, Accelerators, spectrometers, detectors and associated equipment, 361(3), 1995, pp. 440-456
The most relevant properties for operation of straw proportional tubes
at LHC are described, Particular attention is paid to the possibility
of straw:operation in a strong magnetic field and a high radiation en
vironment.
