| Résumé : | A method is presented of solving the left-right ambiguity in a drift chamber operated in the self-quenching streamer mode. It is based on the comparison of the signals induced on two cathodes situated on the left and right sides of the anode wire. It is demonstrated that in the self-quenching streamer mode an induced charge ratio of about 1.5 develops in less than 200 ns. This offers a practical method of removing the ambiguity even in big detectors since signals are large in this mode of operation. |
