Abstract
Common problems in designing stereo-wire geometry for a long cylindrical drift chamber with small jet cells are described and possible ways to approach them are discussed in detail. Among these problems, special emphasis is put on the surface field variation along an anode wire due to the geometrical deformation of the cell structure. Also estimated is the surface field variation due to electrostatic and gravitational sags, based on the sags measured for a 4.6 m-long test chamber. These field variations are translated into gain variation along the stereo wires and used to constrain the stereo geometry.
