Spatial Resolution of the PEP-4 Time Projection Chamber

Abstract

The spatial resolution and response of the segmented cathode pads of the PEP-4 TPC have been measured with data taken at 8.5 atmospheres of 80% Argon-20% Methane gas with a 4kG magnetic field. The dependence of the spatial resolution and pad response on drift distance and track-anode crossing angle is presented.
