摘要
We have constructed and operated a pressurized "tube-style" charged particle tracking detector, the inner tracking chamber, for the AMY experiment at the TRISTAN e+e- storage ring. The AMY inner tracking chamber consists of a four layer, 144 cell per layer "tube-style" drift chamber system. It occupies the region between the beam pipe and the AMY central drift chamber. An overall spatial resolution of 80-mu-m per layer has been obtained during the first two years of operation using argon-ethane gas at 1.45 bar for Bhabha scattering events. This article describes the design, construction, and operation of the device.
