  • Abstract
    An investigation of MWPCs with interpolating chevron shaped cathode pad readout has been carried out as part of the R&D for the particle tracking system of the PHENIX detector at RHIC. Two prototype chambers were designed and constructed. Their response to minimum ionizing particles was tested with secondary beams from the AGS accelerator system at the Brookhaven National Laboratory. Results on resolution, differential non-linearity and overall performance for different chevron patterns and cell geometries are presented.
