Sumario:The development of powerful particle accelerators requires concurrent developments in the apparatus used to analyse the interactions they make possible. Based upon principles which have been known for nearly half a century, drift chambers have been developed during the past ten years into versatile and sophisticated charged-particle detectors that can have a spatial resolution better than 100 mu m or an active area as large as 20 m/sup 2/.
