The PANDA GEM-based TPC Prototype

arXiv:1004.4079 · doi:10.1016/j.nima.2010.06.317

Abstract

We report on the development of a GEM-based TPC prototype for the PANDA experiment. The design and requirements of this device will be illustrated, with particular emphasis on the properties of the recently tested GEM-detector, the characterization of the read-out electronics and the development of the tracking software that allows to evaluate the GEM-TPC data.
