Trigger-Induced Mechanical Resonances of Gating Grid Wires in the Multi-Wire Proportional Chambers of the ALICE TPC

A crucial issue in the design of modern multi-wire proportional chambers (MWPCs) is to avoide mechanical instabilities of thin and long wires that are held at high potentials [1]. Still, these structures are mechanically very sensitive and event-related (random) oscillations have been reported for d...

description A crucial issue in the design of modern multi-wire proportional chambers (MWPCs) is to avoide mechanical instabilities of thin and long wires that are held at high potentials [1]. Still, these structures are mechanically very sensitive and event-related (random) oscillations have been reported for drift tubes [2,3], where the gas ionisation originates the driving force.
