Ka. Ispirian et al., X-RAY TRANSITION RADIATION DETECTORS (XTRD) FOR E PI AND PI/K/P IDENTIFICATION IN TEV ENERGY REGION/, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section A, Accelerators, spectrometers, detectors and associated equipment, 336(3), 1993, pp. 533-541
The possibilities of the characteristic radiation method for construct
ing XTRD are explored with the help of Monte Carlo program, and it is
shown that one can extend the values of Lorentz factors of detected pa
rticles up to the region 10(4) - 10(5). The proposed XTRDs can find wi
de application at present and future accelerators and colliders such a
s LEP, Tevatron, UNK, SSC, CLIC etc.
