Mittwoch, 18. März 1998, 17:00–19:00, Foyer

Gas-strip detectors with multiple GEM foils — •Th. Wilhelm¹, F. Dropmann¹, I. Konorov¹, H. Neeb¹, P. Fauland¹, J. Pochodzalla¹, and H.W. Siebert² — ¹Max-Planck Institut für Kernphysik, Saupfercheckweg 1, 69117 Heidelberg — ²Physikalisches Institut der Universität Heidelberg, Philosophenweg 12, 69120 Heidelberg

For the tracking close to the beam gas strip detectors will be used in the COMPASS experiment at CERN. The required gas amplification is realized by so called gas electron multiplier (GEM) foils. The design of the detectors and first results with a prototype device with multiple GEM structures will be presented.
