The Quest of Building a Precision TPC Field Cage
Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron DESY, Notkestraße 85, 22607 Hamburg, Germany
Published online: 18 December 2024
For ILD, one of the detector concepts for the proposed International Linear Collider, a time projection chamber (TPC) is foreseen as the central tracking detector. The R&D effort within the LCTPC collaboration has been centred around a common infrastructure setup operated at the DESY II Test Beam Facility. This setup includes a large field cage as test bed for the different readout technologies to be studied under comparable conditions. A second iteration of this field cage has recently been constructed to improve on the shortcomings noticed with its predecessor. The construction was repeatedly delayed and interrupted due to the COVID-19 pandemic but these delays yielded insights that may not otherwise have been observed during an ordinary course of operations. Methods and findings from the build process are reported.
