Performance of a small scale prototype of cellular honeycomb proportional chamber

Beam test results for the first small-scale prototype of a honeycomb cellular proportional chamber to be used in ALICE PMD are presented. The overall efficiency for MIP detection is found to be around 93%. The efficiency drops to about 75% at the corners of the hexagon. Improvement in design is sugg...
