Scientific paper

A promising candidate for the main tracker at the international linear collider (ILC) detector is a high resolution time projection chamber (TPC) with gas amplification based on micro pattern gas detectors. This paper presents the R&D work for such a TPC using gas electron multipliers1 (GEM) for gas amplification. To study the spatial resolution of a GEM based TPC, a prototype with low mass fieldcage as well as a high resolution hodoscope as external reference was constructed. The development of a new and fast readout electronics for this prototype is ongoing. The studies with the prototype are assisted by the development of a simulation framework for a GEM TPC.
