Measurements with an MSGC Hodoscope Using the PreMux128 Frontend Chip

We report on the performance of a hodoscope containing 3 large area micro strip gas chambers ( MSGCs). The results of the measurements in a test beam experiment and with cosmics rays are presented. As counting gas Ar/Propan ( 60/40) and Ar/DME ( 50/50) provided by a closed gas system that recycles a...

Sumario:We report on the performance of a hodoscope containing 3 large area micro strip gas chambers ( MSGCs). The results of the measurements in a test beam experiment and with cosmics rays are presented. As counting gas Ar/Propan ( 60/40) and Ar/DME ( 50/50) provided by a closed gas system that recycles and purifies the gas was used. The detectors were equipped with the PreMux128 chip, a multiplexer chip using double correlated sampling for signal processing. The influence of this method for the operation with MSGCs is discussed.
