This presentation discusses the steps leading up to the tests conducted at Kek, including the beam tests and preliminary results. The TPC prototype built by MPI was tested with different wire, Gem, and Micromegas technologies. The tests were conducted at Desy's 5T magnet and in the π2 beam at Kek. Further steps with Desy, Kek, and Asia colleagues were also discussed.

A lot of work went into tuning the beam & the p.i.d. Ron Settles--Victoria ALCPG Meeing July2004
Tests in 2 BeamExperiment T558 • 1-4 Gev/c e, μ, pi,K,p with Č,Aerogel,TOF • 7 pad rows equipped = 7 × 32 = 224 pads • Diffusion, resolution, ect measured as function of drift distance, B field, pad-crossing angle. • dE/dx data taken with p.i.d. Ron Settles--Victoria ALCPG Meeing July2004
T558 Run Sheet Ron Settles--Victoria ALCPG Meeing July2004 Shift leader/Crew/Comments:
Measurements in 2 Beam • ~1000 triggers/setting • Chamber moved precise distance and measured V_drift = 4.5cm/μs 1-2% for “TDR” gas (93%Ar 5%CH4 2%CO2) • Spread beam to illuminate full chamber with mult scatt in few-mm-thick Pb plate • Data taken with B = 0&1T; φ=0,10&20° • 0.6,1.4,2.0,4.0GeV/c proton (+polarity) • 1.0,2.0,4.0 GeV/c (-polarity) • As function of beam intensity • Analyses in progress, some preliminary results below Ron Settles--Victoria ALCPG Meeing July2004
…and a lot of meetings to understand the data… Ron Settles--Victoria ALCPG Meeing July2004
Plots by Katsumas Ikematsu x resolution as function of B, drift distance. Method: fit track using outer rows, look at point-track deviation for central row#6 N.B.: this overestimates error (better method in progress) Ron Settles--Victoria ALCPG Meeing July2004
Same for z resolution Ron Settles--Victoria ALCPG Meeing July2004
