First operation of a liquid Argon TPC embedded in a magnetic field

arXiv:physics/0412080 · doi:10.1088/1367-2630/7/1/063

Abstract

We have operated for the first time a liquid Argon TPC immersed in a magnetic field up to 0.55 T. We show that the imaging properties of the detector are not affected by the presence of the magnetic field. The magnetic bending of the ionizing particle allows to discriminate their charge and estimate their momentum. These figures were up to now not accessible in the non-magnetized liquid Argon TPC.
