- Abstract
Detector rate capability is one of the main parameters for designing a new detector for high energy physics due to the permanent rise of the beam luminosity of modern accelerators. One of the widely used detectors for particle track reconstruction is a straw-detector based on drift tubes. The rate capability of such detectors is limited by the parameters of readout electronics. The traditional method of increasing detector rate capability consists in increasing their granularity (the number of 'elementary' detectors = readout channels) by reducing the straw diameter and/or by dividing the straw anode wire into two parts (for decreasing the rate per readout channel). A new method of designing straw detectors with a high rate capability is presented and tested. The method is based on dividing the straw cathode into parts and the independent readout of each part.
